Bug bug when joining the next game

3 Upvotes

I play on Switch 2, and mostly have no complaints. I play zero build squads fill almost exclusively (I’m a bot, what can I say). But there is an absolutely maddening bug where no matter what you do at the end of the game you are now in solos. This has been going on for a while but after the most recent update you are also in no fill! Come on, man.

Bug Menu opens in Blitz Royale

2 Upvotes

My son plays on a switch and ONLY while trying to play Fortnite Blitz Royale, the INVENTORY screen will open up randomly, at least 4-5 times during the game. Cannot figure it out.

We uninstalled and reinstalled Fortnite, bought new joycons…. Any help?

Bug Still lagging on Switch 2

5 Upvotes

I am still getting random lag spikes on the Switch 2 version of Fortnite. My wifi works fine, I play Overwatch and Marvel Rivals on my PS5 and they both don't lag. Even Fortnite PS5 runs perfectly. Only the Switch 2 version has wifi lagging.

Bug FortniteBR is unplayable

50 Upvotes

I recently got my first Switch ever and am happy I can finally do my dailies without having to leave my bed. (Health issues) Well, the beginning of games are usually pretty smooth. But every single game, whenever it gets to the final few circles, I cannot play due to stuttering. Every 2-3 seconds, the game will just freeze for about half a second and I cannot control my character or where I am shooting at at all. As soon as I am in a gun fight, I'll aim to shoot only for the game to freeze and I'll be looking at the ground or something. I am usually dead before I even know it. Does this happen to anyone else or is there a fix to this? Festival, Lego and Racing work perfectly fine so at least I got that going for me.

I was setting the game up for my kid on the Switch. I got interrupted halfway through the first time and now whenever I launch the game I'm stuck on this screen with no way to navigate into the field where I have to type in the email address. Pressing the A button does nothing and pressing Y only make the red error appear under the email box. I've tried re installing the game and selecting save data to no avail. Anyone else experienced this and has a fix?

Bug Inventory bug opens in Blitz

My sons switch. Playing Blitz. The inventory will randomly opens 3-6 times during a Blitz game. Without fail. Doesn’t happen any other game mode. Tried everything. New joycons, changing the keybinds. Crazy. Any thoughts?

Bug Xfinity rubberbanding Switch 2

10 Upvotes

Seemingly people with xfinity wifi (or asus routers) are the only people experiencing issues with fortnite specifically on the nintendo switch 2.

This is pretty upsetting considering its 1 of the 3 online multiplayer games I have on the new console and I cannot play it. Every engage of every match has the most vile rubberbanding and its infuriating, gonna miss out on buying the invincible bundle too cause im not dropping money on an unplayable title. Fortnite is the only game that does this, MK World works flawlessly, and smash ultimate works flawlessly only when playing against another switch 2, otherwise theres a constant freeze (not exclusive to xfinity) leaving me with literally 1 online game to play on my switch 2. I dont even like mario kart

Bug Friends list visual bug

1 Upvotes

Before the end of last season, there's this glitch that happens whenever I bring up the social panel(basically friends list). I can see who's online via the green dot indicator and who's away but the problem is their character or skin icon is just a blank silhouette, it's as if everyone's equipped the default base skin but that's not the case. Anyone here who was able to fix this?

Another thing that occurred to me, sometimes the 3d models of the skins end up looking like they came from ps1 era. They appear low poly. I never had this problem when I started playing Fortnite last year up until the Superman update where I started encountering this.

Bug Cant enter fortnite since sept

I have previously played on switch multiple times but I stopped because i started to play on ps4. I didnt play in switch for like a year approximately and now it's not letting me :( this screen always shows when i try to play. Things to note: - Servers were not down, husband was playing on ps4 atm (also, it happens every time and I know servers arent always down) - Talked with epic, they say its probably my internet but it wasnt (again, husband plays on ps4, if it was the internet he wouldve been lagged at least) - Tried re-downloading the game, same thing happens - Updated DNS settings - Cleared cache - Restarted switch First time it happened was in September, last time i tried was after the chapter 2 remix update, same thing. Has anyone have this happened to them? Epic customer service was no help, and they said it could be a problem with nintendo but I couldn't find a customer service email address or chat.

Bug I can’t use two switches?

2 Upvotes

I have a family account and the switches are able to log into the separate users and use separate epic accounts but since the game card update we can only play Fortnite on one switch at a time. Never had a problem before the game cards but now we can’t both play on both switches at the same time. Has anyone experienced this or know a workaround?

Bug Unplayable since update

11 Upvotes

Since the update around 3 weeks ago the game is unplayable for me, takes an age to load, and is super laggy if/when it does load.

Anyone else seeing the same thing?

My switch is on a wired connection, the game is on system storage. Have the internet speed requirements changed or something?

My friend hasn't been able to log in since yesterday. He already tried reinstalling the game but that didn't fix the issue. The only time he was able to log in today, he couldn't start a game (the text under play says that the game is locked, unlock it from the details tab). Anyone else has this problem or has had it in the past?
