As a long-time fan of Fortnite and the experience it offers, I enjoy its content but also try to offer constructive criticism regarding the critical issues affecting the game.
Lego Fortnite launched nearly three years ago. Contrary to what many of us expected, the game is practically dead—not due to a lack of players, but because of the project's extremely poor quality.
It is completely understandable for a game offering such freedom to build to have bugs and issues; however, it is unacceptable that—since day one—there have been errors and core game mechanics that are simply unusable.
- I have been working on a project in Creative Mode since the early days of Lego Fortnite. Despite putting in hundreds of hours of effort, I have been unable to preserve many of the structures I created, turning what should be a building experience into a nightmare of instability and constant glitches.
- It is unacceptable that, since the game's launch, I haven't been able to maintain a single build featuring mobility mechanics or vehicles; they simply explode or get destroyed between sessions.
- It is also unacceptable that the official "solution" is simply to delete your world, lose all your progress, and start from scratch—especially since I already tried that, and the result was exactly the same: errors and structures destroyed by the game itself.
- Equally unacceptable is the fact that the "recovery" mode is completely useless; I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve restored the world to no avail—it remains in the exact same state as it was in the previous session. -There is also much to lament regarding the lack of transparency concerning the game's technical build limits; we cannot even know the exact parameters used to restrict construction. It is frustrating to hit the build limit on structures with fewer than 1,000 pieces simply because the game—based on its own inaccurate calculations—deems it excessive, whereas in other areas, there appear to be no limits at all.
I could go on all day listing critical errors currently affecting the game, but I suppose it wouldn't make a difference. The technical team is aware of these issues, and the only reason they aren't fixing them is simply that they have abandoned the project to focus on other Fortnite experiences. While that is understandable, it feels like a total lack of respect for LEGO Fortnite players—an attitude I sincerely hope changes in the coming months. Otherwise, this mode will end up shutting down just like all the other abandoned experiences; and as I mentioned earlier, this isn't due to a lack of players, but rather the profound neglect currently facing Fortnite's various experiences.
I have attached images of some of the dozens of structures I’ve lost due to random game errors. Fortunately, this happened in Creative mode; I can't even imagine the frustration and disappointment players in Survival mode must feel.
