@virtualfilmer Difference in CPU shouldn't be an issue. Are you guys using the same asset for testing?

@games_inu @BenVlodgi Cool test! We’ll fix -1. We also prefer the new default and use it across our projects. We just don’t want to break existing setups.

[Michael Lentine @MichaelALentine]

@games_inu @BenVlodgi If you set the value to -1 (off) you get the previous behavior. We have changed this for the release to avoid unexpected changes but that change didn’t make preview 1.

[Michael Lentine @MichaelALentine]

@virtualfilmer @LDelayen Yep we will discuss in that talk and will be releasing more documentation and details with the 5.4 launch.

#LegoFortnite📷 is Live today! I couldn't be more proud of the team and the experience that has been created. Physics is heavily integrated into the game and I can't wait to see what people create (and destroy) with it.

How many bricks do you need to build an adventure? All of them.

@AlexRoseGames Hi Alex, thanks for the feedback. We use async almost exclusively now and there should be no issues with functioning correctly. As Sean pointed out there is increased latency but depending on the situation that shouldn't be a huge issue.
