Fortnite players call out reload glitch that makes guns feel \u201cawful\u201d Epic GamesFortnite players claim a reload glitch in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 is currently making every gun in the game feel \u201cawful.\u201d Epic Games deployed Fortnite\u2019s Chapter 5 Season 2 update on March 8, unleashing several new NPCs, Points of Interest, and a few gameplay mechanics. As is the case with every seasonal update, the Season 2 release also dropped new weapons on the Island. The latest additions include everything from Zeus\u2019 Thunderbolt and the Chains of Hades to previously unseen SMGs and sniper rifles. Unfortunately, it seems Fortnite\u2019s most recent also brought along a bug impacting each gun\u2019s reload system. Fortnite user draws attention to \u201cawful\u201d gun reload glitch In a Reddit post, a Fortnite player informed fellow fans of a reload bug currently affecting the game\u2019s various guns. A gameplay video uploaded by the user demonstrates the issue, which boils down to the animation and actual reload functionality being out of sync. The Redditor explained, \u201cIn the video, you can fire before the bullet count changes, and before the hud element is complete. Actual reload timing (when you can first fire) and the animation are completely out of sync. The animation is longer than the actual reload on most weapons\u2026\u201d Problems with this particular reload glitch don\u2019t stop there, according to the Fortnite player. They also identified an issue wherein weapons equipped with an extended mag \u201care never fully loaded after being picked up.\u201d Apparently, this error has plagued their experience since Chapter 5 Season 1. In response to someone wondering if this glitch may be a product of the Speed Mag weapon mod, the original poster claimed it isn\u2019t. \u201cAll guns feel bad.\u201d Others quickly chimed in to agree, saying they, too, have noticed reloading hiccups in recent play sessions. \u201cI noticed this too. Some guns are completely empty off spawn and need to be reloaded,\u201d wrote one Fortnite user in the thread. Another person described their troubles with the reload glitch: \u201cYeah, I\u2019ve noticed this a couple times where I\u2019d sprint right after an animation finished, only to be immediately forced to reload again.\u201d As of now, Fortnite players can only hope developers take notice of the bug and issue a fix sometime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
