After months of planning, design, modelling and testing... SPACE HUB TYCOON! Island Code: 2568-2784-0712 Made in collaboration with @I_Tem_I #UEFN #Fortnite #fortnitecreative

but now games like Bank Heist and our own (Prison Escape) are rank #118 in Adventure and #95 in Survival respectively. The only thing keeping this category alive is sponsorship and the Star Wars callout where there has only been 15 maps. Please listen to us @FNCreate @AmmoUEFN

There is a serious problem with Discover which keeps being pushed aside. A month a go, the roguelike category was growing into a cool space with lots of innovation. Now there is no incentive. Even when the new discover changes happened, the top roguelikes were performing okay...

@TrickTyger Glad it's not me then. Ill test again tonight then I'll do a bug report

@AgentPiebee Nope, never got it to work!

Today's patch notes: Highlights: 💡Input Events out of experimental 🧊Cube rifle added 🐙Squibbly Shores prefab 💂‍♂️Guard health issue fixed when a player respawns 🎮Live edit changes now show even if a game is running dev.epicgames.com/documentation/…

@tomjank I've never felt so uncertain with the current state of discover. Hard to plan for anything in the future

In June 2026, there will be a "greater impact on the visibility of your island" based on these thumbnail best practices. No more elaboration for something that could trigger in two weeks? Doing tests on discovery without telling anyone about them erodes the trust any creator can have in using it. "Epic picks is gone this morning?" I have no idea if that's a bug or the discovery team is just trying something out today. "No CCU in sponsored row" well could be some backend glitch or just discovery test.

@TrickTyger @Gneazyx Retention is also such a challenging factor. Story games are amazing (like Split Fiction) but it would have terrible retention because you only do it once maybe twice. Been very disappointing

@Gneazyx CCU and platform share shouldn't be used to evaluate new islands at all - it doesn't help surface new content, it just surfaces new maps by already popular creators

Surprisingly, this still doesn’t answer the main questions regarding new maps and the current state of Discovery : - If you prioritize original maps, why are some of these maps not eligible for the 50k impressions test, ending up at #121, or barely getting 10 minutes of exposure? (we all know this is not enough to do anything with this current discovery) - Why does the “Updated” row contain maps that haven’t been updated in over 6 months? - Why remove rows like “Top Rated” and “Most Engaging,” when they allowed many promising new maps to be showcased far better than simply relying on the “New” row and a 50k impressions test? In short, the documentation still provides good insight into how Discovery works, but there’s one thing I disagree with: - You should stop relying on CCU data for certain rows, especially now that reaching specific player counts is becoming harder due to the drop in Fortnite’s playerbase. Platform share% should matter more instead.

Fun fact I made more money on my Fortnite maps than this guy made would make if he worked at epic for 100 years straight bro's salty. 🤣

@giovauefn @GameDevMicah @LiyabilityJP @GoodGamers @tomjank So you just had to do lots of async code? Interesting

I had (still have, less) this issue in my backrooms Roguelike. npc spawners would send delayed spawn events, after like 10 seconds. I tried everything, even volume device were sending them later. I remember @tomjank telling me this was caused by too many Fortnite devices calls in a single server tick. after removing tons of HUD messages and optimizing the code to run on multiple ticks, the issue was reduced. This *might* be a fix

We are getting unpredictable and random lag spikes that delay events like a player counter counted event or tracker completion event by 30-60 seconds. I also noticed unplayable lag on @GoodGamers game yesterday. Is there something specific about Star Wars NPCs causing it?

@TrickTyger @tomjank @sleightedsloth @FNCreate

Wanted to share my thanks for everyone thats played our game and have some stats to share from yesterday! 16 million people got slapped which led to 4.6 million eliminations! Keep on slapping! play.fn.gg/island/7369-73… #UEFN

@Jakkofn @Keeneo9 @TNSStudio_ They are made by creators

@Keeneo9 @TNSStudio_ They are releasing a Star Wars tycoon lol They really are going after creator maps

Epic just released some Star wars maps, but we can't play it for now. They also released a map like Battlefront... We’re supposed to be equal, but can they can release their maps before us 🤔? Because even if we can't play them we can still like them for example..

Epic, we demand the b1 battle droids to be added to the game. please 🥺🙏.

@TrickTyger Let's go!!! Look really cool will have to check it out

Our map is now in Epic's Picks so if you want a full lobby join up now :) It's doing great! fortnite.gg/island/7369-73…

@uefngunss This guy is delusional. A 100 rvbs does not drive players to fortnite. What a joke

Cant wait till next week!!!

@Its_Stug @giovauefn @FNCreate Shooter is way too broad

@giovauefn Yo @FNCreate what are we doing? Bring back roguelike tab this is an unecessary change.

‼️THERE WAS A HUGE OVERHAUL OF #UEFN DISCOVER OVERNIGHT‼️ - New / Updated moved at the bottom - Top rated and Most engaging removed - New tabs like Battle Royale, Shooters and Adventure are at the top now - Some category tabs like Roguelike and Gun game removed - For you is now just 1 row It is not clear if this is an intentional change by @FNCreate, as they have yet to announce any changes.

@uefngunss Well those games don't exactly have many players. A successful platform doesnt have just the same game 1000 times. Can you imagine if YouTube was the same video? Would make it boring. Also is the reason it gets the most players because 65% of new is rvbs?

@AgentPiebee rvbs get the most players, simple. stop crying

So 65% of new games are Red vs Blue then 15% are Drive chill games. So only 20% of New games are actually something different. Honestly there should be a shadow ban Red vs Blue cuz no one is actually looking at any of these

@productive1344 not many people are playing these ones

@AgentPiebee They are pushing this garbage because people play them 😔
