@LEGOMoonNite Nah

Do you think the world will stop spinning tomorrow?….. 🤦‍♂️ LEGO Fortnite will be around as long as Fortnite is around…

This game is wild! Continuing the nightmare @ 7:30pm est on twitch.tv/haskyns.

@LEGO_Group 💯 ❤️

@Haskyns When community comes together the perfect soundtrack is built ❤️

We stand strong with our core community of LEGO Fortnite players. We are still here. This is a self-produced music video that echo's the strength and bond within our community. Yes, the game has its issues, but we stand united and make the best of it through our innovation and creativity. It features many builds from our community and passes on the energy from our group. I hope you enjoy! BEST LEGO Odyssey Community Alive! #Craftopia #legofortnite youtu.be/HajLPlrZbvo

@ole_Rooster81 Thanks Rooster! Appreciate everything you have done for the community!

@Haskyns Lets go for the community keeping this alive. Amazing video!!

@BraveBuilds Thanks Brave!

@Haskyns Bro this is fire! 🔥

@kaboom2084 Thanks Kaboom! Looking forward ti the next one!

This music video and the whole event was awesome!

Well said and I do agree we can continue to do more, but its rough out here. We have been going crazy with content and streams for 2 years and unless sponsored to promote an update, we have been doing it all on our own. There are many things that MUST be done to help grow the community and retain it, we can definitely help, but the top of that list is keeping up with the deveoplment of other top tier survival builders in this space.

I want to preface that I'm not speaking just about you, I don't want this to come off as personal criticisms, it's about the entirety of the community, including myself. I think we ALL could be doing more and doing better. - You're right, from a viewership perspective it may not be "worth the squeeze" to stay on top of everything and cover things that are releasing. However, the truth is, people do rely on us for information, it doesn't hurt to get a YouTube short out once a week covering changes that people want/need to hear about. - I've tried to get more of us into the Grant Program for early access Build Kits, they're not budging. I agree, maybe if we all had earlier access to posting the kits could do well, but there's clearly a reason they're not putting effort into it. If they were selling, they'd be producing more. - To your point about creators promoting the ltd events, it's unfortunately just not true. You posted only about the golden sheep. Kaz posted about the golden sheep, & bonus ritual oil. EpikBricks has only covered the bonus ritual oil. Brave has only covered new colored chickens. Kaboom, myself, Jhowwilliams & villagerjoe are doing a lot of the heavy lifting there. There's been ELEVEN ltd events, I think aside from Kaboom, Myself, Jhow and Joe, there's not eleven total videos about any of the ltd weekly events combined from everybody else. - I'm not saying we can fix all of LEGO Fortnite, but I don't think rolling over and saying, "I'll just come back when things get fixed" is the right answer. I don't think that not covering the new ltd content that they're atleast trying to give us is helping any. We can't fix the issues, but we can help.

So far, it looks like 11 people from lego fortnites team have been laid off in yesterday's shake-up 😢

- "They just fixed bugs/issues, there are 3 total videos in the entire community about fixing problems. " Many aren't making them for the same reasons you probably don't make build tutorials or showcases, they perform poorly when served to our audience. Also, speaking for myself, I work full time and support 2 kids and a wife. Many others do as well, and the juice just ain't worth the squeeze to stay on-top of every small change that occurs. In my honest opinion, reposting on our discord and to YT post covers all you really need to know. - "Build Kits simply don't sell. It's the harsh reality that we have to face, but it's the simple truth. They're not going to continue to push to sell things that aren't working. " They could definitely sell if creators had early access and showcased what can be done with the sets and hype them prior to release. They are more desired than ever now due to the number of amazing builds that are possible these days. Being in the shop for 3 days and not hyped by anything other than a couple X posts won't cut it. Also, with support from LEGO and EPIC to help promote builders showing what is possible using these kits and not just showing the prebuild images in marketing, they would do much better. -" Who's even trying to help push these weekly ltd events? It takes less than 15 minutes for Shorts to be created about a Golden Cow, Ritual Oil, etc. And yet, nobody cares to even help promote them. " You are making blanket statements that aren't true by saying nobody cares to promote. KAZ, Kaboom, Myself and several other streamers promoted it. Those events just aren't it lol. From a creators perspective, I made a short about the sheep and took me 30 min all in.... 11k views and I earned 1 dollar. And let me be clear, I'm not doing this for the money, I just can't trade my time like that anymore, especially not for an event that I am not really hyped about. Turns out the sheep was bugged too, locked in the barn or turned translucent, I believe some reported it never showed up or disappeared after getting it. For full time creators' perspective, I get it, make all the content you can to earn your living, but I think there are actually only 2 full time creators in this space. - "Where's the gameplay series? There are none." -- Same thing here, game play series take a tremendous amount of effort to produce and edit on your own. Many don't have the time to spend 40 hours a week on this content to get 1000 views and die. After 5 episodes, what else are you going to make? More builds that inspire people to play and when they show up they can't build any of it?

I agree that players will leave because of issues and problems within the game, however: - They just fixed bugs/issues, there are 3 total videos in the entire community about fixing problems. - Build Kits simply don't sell. It's the harsh reality that we have to face, but it's the simple truth. They're not going to continue to push to sell things that aren't working. - Who's even trying to help push these weekly ltd events? It takes less than 15 minutes for Shorts to be created about a Golden Cow, Ritual Oil, etc. And yet, nobody cares to even help promote them. - Where's the gameplay series? There are none. As creators we ARE able to bring in an audience, and we ARE able to keep players active in the game. Whether we want to believe it or not, there are people that play the game just because they watch us playing it. Everything isn't all our fault, but we need to be able to atleast put in the bare minimum effort of posting and highlighting the things LEGO Fortnite is doing on a weekly basis to atleast TRY to help however we can. We can't just throw in the towel and give up. We have to push for the community, continue to show up, and show that we care rather than leaving and coming back whenever a content drop happens.

Many of us have been here all along holding it up. There is only so much we can do as creators. We need kits in the shop regularly, more frequent content that players want in the game. Most importantly major bugs fixed. The content is already out there. Tiktok & YT shorts are flooded with amazing builds and there are at least 10 streamers who show up every day playing it, but viewership lacks because a lot of people have moved on. We share, we promote others, showcase our community every month and have self-funded giveaways. But, without a solid foundation, that only reaches the people who have unconditional love for the game. Unfortunately, even the most dedicated players are starting to walk away because the state of the game, not lack of content. Pushing content as creators may bring more visibility and newer players initially, but retaining the players comes down to having an amazing experience when they arrive and sustaining that excitement month over month. The major bugs, extreme lag, build limits, no access to build kits and unbalanced survival mode causes people to be in and out within a few weeks at best. I agree we should be doing the things you mention, but we have already been doing that for the last 2 years.

If this isn't motivation for content creators in our space to get back on the ball, I don't know what is. LEGO Fortnite is very likely not in any trouble or danger of getting shut down, but there's no reason to risk it. Every single creator, every single person with a voice should be: - Posting every LTD Weekly Event, big or small. - Sharing Players Builds. - Covering every bit of news. - Engaging Positively with the community. While these decisions by Epic don't necessarily fall on us, it doesn't mean that we can't help and support the game more than we all currently are.

@ptstress_ Im so out of the loop I forgot I had one…..

I have officially cancelled my #fortnite crew subscription.

@ole_Rooster81 @LEGOFortnite Also a great weapon!

@Haskyns @LEGOFortnite I like the weapon of the bus stop to fix crooked pieces

What's your most used weapon rn in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey?

@Opsman17 @GroundedTheGame Followed!

If you can help my friend reach affiliate on Twitch I would appreciate it. She only needs 6 more followers. She loves @GroundedTheGame and is an awesome person. twitch.tv/sekhmet36

@LEGOFortnite Of course we need one at the modern mansion.

Something golden awaits ewe around the world 🐑 Collect her before she leaves on March 5!

@LEGOFortnite Sorry, I have to drop 2!

Drop your favorite screenshot you've taken on LEGO Fortnite recently 📸

Built one of the Ninjago Catamarans. The one one the left is my build. What you all think?

@ole_Rooster81 @LEGOFortnite Wow! This is sickkkkk!!!

@LEGOMoonNite @LEGOFortnite I was also one shot with 1200 health (full bar) With the old heart system OG expert mode, I think you only had one shot protection from Frost Brutes with a full health bar. Could be the same here. I think you had a little health off your bar. Either way 1100 damage is wild!

Ok so today 3 times in a row, the dragon has one hit me even with over 1,000 health applied. 2 times I had 1,220 health and I got one hit. Did it get stronger or is this a bug? @LEGOFortnite

@ChikiBooMJuega I usually only jump when the explosion attack goes off.

@Haskyns yes

Today's video I cover everything you need to know about the new Dragon's added to LEGO Fortnite. Video below in comments ⬇️. Have you defeated an ELITE Dragon yet?
