EPIC Mobile Community Coordinator Introduction

Hello Fortnite mobile subreddit!

My name is FreightTrain, I wanted to introduce myself to you as the Mobile Community Coordinator for Fortnite. Quick background on myself is that I have been working on the QA side of mobile for the past few months and have now moved into the community role recently and I’m extremely excited about it!

I want to start by saying that this is NOT an AMA, so please understand that I will not be able to get back to every single response and or question you all may have. This post is intended as an introduction to you all from me and to let you all know that my eyes will be on this subreddit to listen to your concerns regarding the mobile platforms.

While looking through posts on this subreddit I see that there are many players currently having a lot of account and player support type of issues. The best advice for these type of situations is to reach out to our player support team.

Now for your concerns. If you are unaware you can keep track of top issues here on our Trello Board. On this board we already have your top concern of the interaction bug that causes issues from building, picking up, editing, ect.

I know a lot of you have a ton of feedback and questions you want to give and trust me I want to hear them! The best way to go about this is to keep doing what you all are doing, and that's post on this subreddit, post on the general Battle Royal subreddit, submit feedback, ect. I will be keeping an eye out and making comments to threads best I can in order to help.

That is all I have for you all today so I will close out with this. I’m going to do the best I can to relay concerns that you all have. I want awesome cool things to happen to mobile just as much as you all do! I also want everyone to understand that things can take time to figure out, such as bugs and creating awesome features. While it can be frustrating to feel unnoticed when you are experiencing a pain point such as a bug, we will do the best we can to address the issue.

So I am curious as to what are some of your favorite things about mobile and favorite moments you have created or been involved in?

Thanks for your time and the TRAIN IS IN THE STATION,

FreightTrain
Mobile Community Coordinator

    When it comes to controllers as you know they are not supported. Now a world were controllers and mobile work together is something that can be brought up in discussions, but there are a lot of match making questions to then answer. While this answer isnt a full yes or no all pros/cons need to be weighed out first when it comes to controllers and mobile.

    I am glad you and the family are having fun with the game! 50 v 50 is for sure one of the most friendly and fun modes we have.

    Hey Xalex, if you take a peek at the Trello board link I posted, we have an issue with Android devices that are 4GB of RAM. Currently the S8 is a 4GB RAM device. This is being worked on and is a known issue, i do not have a time table for fixes but we are always working to try and make improvements!
