Fortnite Update 3.59 Patch Notes
There was an issue with the game where players were facing some problems with DMR and were unable to shoot properly. Epic Games mentioned this on their social media account.
We’re aware of an issue with the DMR where if players are crouched or close to objects they may aim down sights as if they were standing or see through the object. Bullets do not travel from this point-of-view and this is being fixed in our next major update.
They later confirmed that this issue was resolved with an update that was released today.
We’ve just released a maintenance patch on all platforms to address stability issues.
You will be able to download the patch before launching your game.
Fortnite is available now for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, PC, Nintendo Switch, and Mobile.
