Ninja catches another Fortnite hacker in the act on stream Dexerto\/TheRegisterDuring a recent stream, Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins caught a Fortnite hacker in action and broadcast a snippet of their gameplay for the world to see. Hacking and stream sniping has plagued Fortnite for some time with players calling on Epic Games to act and make changes. However, hackers have still been able to affect games \u2013 even getting to the best of Fornite\u2019s pro scene. On November 24, FaZe Clan\u2019s Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney was slain by a hacker during a Winter Royale qualifying game. Since then, a number of hackers have received bans and now, Ninja has caught another in action \u2013 reporting them for hacking in the hopes that they\u2019re banned too. During his December 15 stream, Ninja \u2013 who was dead in a game \u2013 watched on in disbelief as the hacker began dealing damage to players they could barely see. After watching the hacker gain a long-range kill by seemingly aim locking, the streamer reported the account before carrying on watching them make a move on another player. The former Halo professional turned streamer left the game after watching the hacker get a kill on a player at Dusty Divot, who wasn\u2019t visible to Ninja\u2019s stream, whilst shooting from over 100 metres away. On the same stream, Ninja also called on Epic Games to help end the stream sniping epidemic that has plagued some of Fortnite\u2019s biggest streamers. However, even he isn\u2019t sure if any company will be ever to combat snipe snipers. Ninja had been playing a squad\u2019s game before his team was pounced on \u2013 outside the closing circle \u2013 by an apparent group of stream snipers. After leaving the game, the former Halo professional said: \u201cListen man, If there\u2019s anyone who can come up with a creative way to counteract stream sniping, it\u2019s Epic.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
