Fortnite: Epic Games gives update on problems with \u201cDeal damage with different weapons\u201d challenge Epic Games have addressed a bug with one of Fortnite\u2019s Weekly Challenges released on January 10 that asks players to deal damage with multiple weapon types in order to complete. Fortnite gives players a wide-open battlefield to devise the best way to come on top in the 100-player battle royale, but Epic Games likes to give its players extra incentives with weekly challenges to keep the game fresh. Feedback from the community has directed Epic Games to the bugged challenge that asks players to deal damage with five different weapons in a match, and the company thinks that it might have to do with modes that allow respawns. The issue preventing players from getting credit for damaging enemies with 5 weapons in a single match seems to only be occurring in modes that allow respawns. This will be fixed in a future update. In the meantime, you can complete this Challenge in all non-respawning modes. \u2014 Fortnite (@FortniteGame) January 10, 2019 The update was brief, but gave fans hope of claiming the challenge. For the time-being, sticking to the normal battle royale mode would be the best way for players to get credit for completing the task. Some members of the community have had success completing the challenge on respawn modes such as Disco Domination, leading Epic Games to dig further into the problem. \u201cIn respawn modes, it appears that you\u2019ll be granted credit until you\u2019re eliminated for the first time. After you respawn, you may be unable to progress any further in that match,\u201d the developer said.
