Why have Epic Games disabled Reboot Vans ahead of World Cup Qualifiers? Epic GamesEpic Games are disabling the Reboot Vans in Fortnite\u2019s competitive modes after discovering a huge problem on April 19 with the respawning mechanic. The ability to come back after being eliminated made its way into Fortnite after the v8.30 patch brought Reboot Vans into the battle royale, but a new bug has forced the developers\u2019 hands by disabling the feature. On April 19, Epic Games announced on the official Fortnite Twitter account announced they were rolling back the Vans just a day before pros are expected to compete in the game\u2019s World Cup Qualifiers for a chance to compete in the $1,000,000 tournament. Reboot Vans will be missing from Fortnite While the Reboot Vans add a new dimension to a competitive match, Epic Games made the call to take them out prior to the April 20 qualifiers. The devs said the Vans were causing an issue with the scoring in the game, leading them to take out the mechanic in totality. \u201cWe\u2019ve discovered an issue involving the Reboot Van that could affect scoring in competitive modes,\u201d Epic Games said. \u201cWe\u2019ll be disabling the Reboot Van in all competitive modes and are looking to resolve the issue in a future release.\u201d We’ve discovered an issue involving the Reboot Van that could affect scoring in competitive modes.

Though some pros were more concerned with other rising problems that have been integrated in Fortnite, and wondered why the same fast response hadn\u2019t come with problems from things like the infamous Ballers. WHY CANT YOU DO THE SAME WITH BALLERS. JUST DISABLE IN COMPETITIVE MODES UNTIL YOU CAN FIX THEM. LOOK HOW EASY IT IS.

Though the weekend competitors might appreciate the initiative to take out a problem that could affect the competitions, it comes at an unfortunate time as the major change gives players less than a day to regroup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
