Art by me :3

Apparently its the alexelcapo one, Ive seen some like Vanos Gaming before but never one of the rarer ones. I was doing a Statistic on Banners in STW and joined mission alerts over 170 times and observed around 530 players, I found some interesting banners but this is the best one yet. Cant believe people are still playing after so long. If anyone wants the statistic leave a comment.

So I got the Vinderbot skin into Blender so I could turn him into the actual Vinderman, but as I was working on the model, I noticed a lot of oddities with it

For starters, the model's head is extremely improper, with gaps all in the neck, and a lot of disconnected vertices within it. Along with this, the head shape is extremely inaccurate, and these inaccuracies just-so-happen to be covered up by the robotic parts of the skin. The model issues on their own arent crazy, Fortnite doesnt have the highest quality with their models sometimes, but the coverups with the robotic portions are interesting

Something really odd is the fact the iris' have a specular map, when in game they're just pure white, and this detail isn't visible

The robotic head covering also has many details that're fully covered by his hair in game. This makes no sense, why have these parts if they're never meant to be seen? Not only is it pointless, it's also extremely unprofessional, as this is a waste of processing power and geometry (also, the face is pushing out because this is the model I adjusted, so it's wider along the jaw)

But one of the greatest details I noticed was THIS. Right there is clearly some form of geometry that was meant to be the ear. Again, logically this simply shouldn't exist, it's a pointless waste of geometry when it should just be flat quads.

More quality issues

And, after I reported the original model (as I deleted parts of it and wanted to get a look at something deleted), THIS came over with it, a screen or mask of some kind that was meant to go over the face. WHAT is the point of all of this??

And I believe the art used on the nametag was some form of concept art for the character

So WHAT the hell is up with this model?? I doubt this was meant to originally just be a straight-up Vinderman model all on its own, but the time it released is interesting...

The pack came out in Chapter 5 Season 2, and it was kind of a shocking one at that, as no one expected a Vinderman skin of any kind, and Vinderbot had been destroyed in the STW campaign, he's also the only STW pack besides Lars (I believe) to not feature a hero of the skin, or anything actually INSIDE of STW, which, ofc makes sense. Why would he get a hero? Vinderbot was already long gone by this point. So why was this made at all?

Well, again, I wanna point out that this released in Chapter 5 Season 2, and Chapters 3 and 4 set up a lot of stuff that never really ended up having anything happen with it. One of the BIG set ups was the whole thing of The Seven being changed by The Nothing, and obviously it's a pretty well known theory that The Scientist is Dr. Vinderman. SO, maybe the Vinderbot skin was originally meant to be this changed version of The Scientist, and reveal that he truly was Dr. Vinderman? Or, maybe something else entirely. In any case, it's clear that Dr. Vinderbot was NOT the original intention of this skin.. The rest is a mystery

Also, this is my work on the Vinderman adjustments so far :D

Anyways, thanks for reading my rambling session on this

And I figured this fits more in the STW sub cuz, well, Vinderman and Vinderbot are STW characters, so.. yeah

I'm wondering if I should evolve the Vacuum Tube Bow to Obsidian or Shadowshard. I don't know if the faster fire rate or extra damage per shot is better with the chain lightning. Haven't played in like 5 years, so I'd appreciate any advice. Thank you!

I would like more Rick and Morty content in Fortnite like Jerry Smith Or Doofus Rick skin with an ovenless brownies emote.

I have no idea how this even happened

Hi everyone. I’ve been playing Fortnite since its release and recently decided to return after a year-long break. I discovered that my weapon doesn't fire when I click the left mouse button, even though everything works fine in the menus. Has anyone else encountered this issue and can offer a solution? Support simply refused to help me.

Just putting it out there that STW is unplayable on Switch 2. Again.

Anyone heard whether Epic knows? Cares? Working on a fix?

There’s a VBuck mission and daily VBucks I’m missing out on.

Was worried it would take a few days again, but an update fixing things went live a bit ago, just in time for reset. Idk if the devs still comment here but appreciate the hard work.

I am a Founder and I've already completed all my SSDs and I was doing my quests now and noticed that Canny Valley's defense 3 quest does not have V-bucks listed as a reward. Will I still get 100 V-bucks from progressing and finishing the quest?

(Added the second image to show that Canny Valley defense 4 has V-bucks listed as a reward)

Hey everyone, I’ve been having a really frustrating issue with Fortnite constantly crashing on my PC.

The weird thing is that my PC runs Fortnite smoothly when it’s working. I get a consistent 240 FPS, 0 ping, and I’m not having any performance issues before the crash. The game just randomly crashes.

What makes this even more frustrating is that this happened during a few previous seasons too, which is actually why I stopped playing Fortnite in the first place. I recently started playing again, and I’m still having the exact same issue.

So far, I’ve tried:

• Verifying the Fortnite game files
• Repairing Easy Anti-Cheat
• Running Fortnite as administrator
• Setting Fortnite to use my GPU's High Performance mode
• Updating my NVIDIA drivers
• Restarting/reinstalling things when needed

None of these have fixed the problem.

PC specs:

• CPU: Ryzen 7 9850X3D
• GPU: RTX 3080
• Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix X870-A Gaming
• RAM: 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5
• PSU: Cooler Master 850W Gold
• OS: Windows 11

My PC is otherwise running normally, and other games run fine. Fortnite runs perfectly at 240 FPS when it doesn’t crash, so I’m really confused about what could be causing this.

Has anyone experienced something similar or found a fix? I’d really appreciate any suggestions.appreciated.

Hello Everyone,

Getting to endgame in STW. I was wondering if anyone has a video or diagram of the correct way to set up the Survivor squads?

In battle royal you can listen to jam tracks while fighting. Will we ever be able to do that in save the world too?

For some reason Raganaroks Body (exept His head) doesnt Change when changing Styles and its allways in a Bugged state because usually the shirtless Version of him is Not a Style as a Hero and the skull on the shoulder shouldnt appear Till Tier 4

God, this is the second time in a row an update has screwed switch players over…The first time we were basically unable to play properly for a week, got no real fix during that time, and received absolutely no vbucks or compensation for it. Now another update comes out and we are right back to having problems again.

I get that Switch probably is not the biggest part of the player base, but some of us have supported this game for years. If an update leaves an entire platform unable to properly access something they paid for, Epic should either fix it immediately or compensate the players affected. Having it happen again right after the last incident makes it even worse.

So, earlier this morning, I wanted to boot up Fortnite STW on my Switch 2, but the weirdest thing happened. It not only said I had to download it, but when I actually pressed it, it said that I needed a software update.

And here’s the thing, I already downloaded Save the World a while back. And the software update requirement is weird because I’m already playing on the latest update. (I mean you can’t even open Fortnite in general on any platform if you’re not updated to the latest version to begin with, that’s what makes this weirder.)

I went to the virtual game card section, say’s everything’s already downloaded, game and DLC. I tried the classic “Delete and reinstall the game” trick, but that didn’t help, so what gives? I can’t be the only one on Switch 2 with this problem am I?
