This was meant as a hobby account, simply because these days one apparently needs social media to stay up-to-date on live events in video games. I wanted to keep hobbies strictly separate from "RL". Alas I'm too lazy to compartmentalize & switch between diff Twitter/YT accounts🙄

@Martenno_Tweets Thanks.
I haven't even played much in FNBR Ch7S2 and S3. just not feeling the story. The map is pretty, though. :(

@FoadZone Please fix the Daily Quests not updating properly! Timer resets, but "Start Quests" doesn't work. Happens to me so regularly that I only get new Daily Quests ~ every 2nd day, regardless of how many times I restart DT or Fortnite.
Now with the crystals it's frustrating.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@FoadZone Is the gambler droid in the Droid Tycoon Cantina, where the player can try to get a free droid upgrade 1/day, broken? In the past couple days, I noticed the prompt to talk to him appears, but then nothing else happens. No % chance window, no "Come back later" message.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@FoadZone New bug (today, as yesterday things worked) with Iconic droid DJ R-3X:
Its "2x World Quest Rewards" companion ability is suddenly gone? The orange text pop-up with the little droid that doubles the credits or chips is missing & double reward doesn't happen.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@F_Candy_119 @GD_DaggerMouth Reminding me that we *still* don't have a Midas in a black Beatnik-era turtleneck and glasses.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

Addendum 2: I went into a private DT server just now to check if anything had changed, and now even the "Start Quests" hologram is gone. (sigh) So that is basically 24 hours without new Dailies, as it should have alreeady given me new quests yesterday around this time but didn't.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

Addendum: Those completed quests were completed yesterday. When 24h update timer only had 26 minutes left, I decided to log off & return later. Later, timer had updated (was counting down 18 hours and a bit), but quests hadn't. Today, only 1h left, "Start Quests" unresponsive.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@FoadZone The Blueprint bug is still happening (as of yesterday): The glitched blueprint from an Astromech mission when carried says "Beskar, Mythic" (in silver, red letters) & "B-U4D" (but shows a diff droid icon). But the actual blueprint turned out to be entirely different (RB Leg R7).

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@Fortnite It is giving us matchmaking errors...

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@Fortnite Why is the event on a Friday instead of Saturday, though, and why so insanely late? That'll be midnight for the UK and 01:00 at night here in Germany.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@IAM_LUCKY47 @Fortnite Honestly I'll be disappointed if I can't get the Foundation style. I find it baffling/frustrating why devs go to the effort of designing 2 styles but one will effectively be scrapped forever post-event??
If we could at least get the style of the character whose team we joined??

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@OctoGirlthystX @Fortnite A repeat of Ch2S2 where we could only unlock either GHOST or SHADOW style, not both.😕
Worse, in this case it doesn't even matter which team we joined! 50% of players will get a style for a skin they didn't chose. I'd be fine with "only one" if it's at least the one I wanted?

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@OctoGirlthystX @Fortnite Yees, I really wanted that white armour style for Foundation, as it doesn't resemble any previous style on the two Foundations skins (one from Chapter 3, one from Ch7S2)... whereas a white armour style for the Ice King *who is already covered in ice* feels a bit redundant.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@EpicTofuChris Beautiful concept art!

[Tofu Chris @EpicTofuChris]

Been meaning to share these, as a send-off for Season 2.

#FortniteArt Megathread 🧵👇. Team Ice King only.

Farewell, Showdown. We bid you adieu. Time to shatter.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@Fortnite Now that Blitz mode exists, please slow down the Storm speed/circle frequency to how it used to be!. Because right now in BR core modes there's hardly any time to do quests, enjoy the map, talk to NPCs, impossible to travel across the map because the Storm is already closing in.

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@Fortnite @FortniteStatus Yeah, about that "always on glider redeploy" in the updated Zero Build, that doesn't seem to work as shown in the promo? (Except on jumping out of the battle bus, dropping below normal auto-glider height, then redeploying before impact, that one does.)

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@starwars Watch Party Island map and its quests are honestly fun. Shame about the mediocre movie, and I say this as someone who loves 'The Mandalorian' Season 1+2, even though Season 2.5 Book of Boba Fett fell off and S3 suffered from the Mandalore plot meandering & terrible "celeb" cameos

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@Fortnite The Event is on Friday evening/night to Saturday (depending on time zone)? How weird. The big live events used to happen on Saturdays?

[Knusperfrosch @schwanenwald]

@deathmonk92 @Fortnite It's even later (past midnight) for EU region. Yikes.
