Team Foundation has taken the lead in #Fortnite BR 🎊 For the first time since the Season began, Team Foundation is ahead of Team Ice King in Rivalries won. As a reminder, Team Ice King will have their progress boosted this Friday, and it's still anyone's game...

Only 111 players managed to earn this #Fortnite item🏆 The Lunar Wave Trail was only given to players who hit Unreal in the final Ranked Rocket Racing season, which lasted ten days. It's said that a cabal of players who earned the Trail continued to play to prevent others from hitting Unreal, protecting the Trail's exclusivity. 📰 @fortnitecarguy

Rocket Racing's final Ranked season has ended 🏁 The mode will be removed from #Fortnite in October. Players will be able to continue to use their Car cosmetics in Battle Royale and other creator-made experiences that include vehicles.

Here's the exact hotfix text: ++CurveTable=/HazelnutSpread_Rivals/DataTables/HazelnutSpread_RivalsGameData;RowUpdate;HazelnutSpread.Rival.Clash.PowerHour.FactionA.Multiplier;1;1.5

@FNBRunderground Where did you get the statistic for a 1.5x multiplier? I haven’t seen a concrete number anywhere. I was assuming a 2x multiplier. If it’s 1.5, team foundation goes from 35 mil to a staggering 41 mil rivalries won without the mults

Team Foundation may take the lead tomorrow in #Fortnite BR 👀 In the last 24 hours, Team Foundation has won 50,000,000 Rivalries, while Team Ice King has won about 27,000,000. Even accounting for the Seven Sunday boost, Foundation's side is winning far more Rivalries.

@NeonTiger1135 This includes the multiplier, so Team Foundation actually earned something like 33 million wins, multiplied by 1.5x.

@FNBRunderground Question: is the 50 mil and 27 mil figure accounting for the multiplier or not?

Employees at #Fortnite developer Epic Games knew about a terminal cancer patient's condition before he was laid off, it's been alleged 😬 Speaking to Kotaku, Jenni Griffin, the wife of Mike Prinke, says that he "had frequent medical appointments and had previously taken paid leave," and that “Everyone he worked with knows." Epic Games did not respond to Kotaku's request for comment. 🔗 kotaku.com/epic-games-lay…

Epic Games has now confirmed that they will handle Prinke's life insurance: x.com/FNBRundergroun…

One of the people laid off in Tuesday's #Fortnite layoffs, Michael Prinke, is a terminal brain cancer patient. His wife, Jenni Griffin, expressed in a heartbreaking Facebook post that being laid off from Epic meant that Michael lost his life insurance. His family is now "facing the reality of what type of funeral/burial I can afford. How I will keep a roof over our heads. How I will protect our son and the life we built together." 🔗 facebook.com/share/p/1PAhey…

Tim Sweeney has confirmed that #Fortnite developer Epic Games will handle Mike Prinke's life insurance ❤️ "Epic is in contact with the family and will solve the insurance for them. There is high confidentiality around medical information and it was not a factor in this layoff decision. Sorry to everyone for not recognizing this terribly painful situation and handling it in advance."

Jenni Griffin, the wife of Mike Prinke, speaks to the impact of the #Fortnite layoffs on her family in a new Kotaku article: "We should be spending every possible moment treasuring the time we have left as tumors are actively bleeding into Mike’s brain, but instead, we have to rush to try and figure out life insurance as fast as possible. At any time, Mike could have his third ‘major event’ and become unresponsive." Griffin told Kotaku that the family is currently going through their options, and may launch a GoFundMe campaign. She also says that her husband "had even pursued specific treatments for his cancer to prevent memory loss so that it wouldn’t interfere with his work... only to be laid off." 🔗 kotaku.com/epic-games-lay…
