Summary

I’m playing on Fortnite ‘Zero Builds’ DUOS on playstion 5 with my girlfriend (so splitscreen mode).
Ever since the latest update we encounter issue’s when one player of our (duo) team needs to be rebooted. The player that goes to the reboot van, can only run - jump - slide - ride a vehicle. The whole inventory is empty but when you want to pick something up it says that the backpack is completely full. This player has some weapons, but can’t switch between them and as mentioned before there is nothing shown in the inventory. The inventory is completely empty (no weapons, ammo, medals,…). The other player that is rebooted, can play normal…

This bug makes us want to quit every game when someone get’s killed.
We also lose a lot of games because of this bug, so our statistics are going down fast…

Please fix this asap, we had so much fun before but now we can’t play with fun anymore.

Steps to Reproduce

After rebooting, the player that went to the reboot van to reboot the other will have issues.

Observed Result

Do you also encounter this issue while playing splitscreen (like we do) ?
We also encounter this issue while playing Battle Royal.

It just happens every single time when someone wants to reboot a player…

Same issue for us too. Every time. So annoying…

Having the same issue. According to Reddit threads, this has been a really common bug the last week. Super annoying glitch. We basically would just quit the game if someone needed to be rebooted because it’s too annoying to even try to pretend to keep playing with.

Exactly…
The game is not fun anymore like this.
Even before one of us gets ‘knocked down’ we are stressed to play and hope none of us gets ‘knocked down’. And when someone gets ‘knocked down’ you can’t play strategically, you need to rush and try to revive him while he/she is ‘knocked down’ - which could prevent the reboot bug. But this just get’s both of you killed.

Extremely annoying, we hope they fix this soon because for now we are not playing anymore :frowning:
