Feel free to share your creator code. Publishing 7 maps in one day…obviously a lot of thought went into those 7 maps.

Imagine thinking “hard work” is spamming the exact same RVB map with the exact same promo image 7 times in a day. I ain’t even upset, this is on fncreate and epic now. These people are given the freedom of anonymity because FNCreate gives it to them and allows this to continue.

Meanwhile, KPOP Collection More Islands is still littered with Infinis. So this one account has been sitting in the same collections tab for 10+ days now with 5+ maps in the exact same tab.

Another rampant exploit seems to be this ability to make an account yesterday (Oct 1st) with a new copy-paste map and somehow get #1 New and Updated and #1 New and Updated in Collections at the same time.

Only after about an hour of this N&U getting #2 Most Engaging bumping it to 1k+ players in the very first day, No build up, Just straight to #1! Magic! See for yourself. 3929-7038-9779

edit:
4 HOURS LATER

And Another Example like the one above:

Made today copy-paste given #2 N&U first jumping it to #2 most engaging and #2 most engaging collections, 900+ atm. This isn’t uncommon, it is constant.

It’s really disappointing that this keeps happening and Epic is just kinda silent about the whole thing. Their “fix” doesn’t really do anything.

Bro, what they do helps Us, spammers, even more. Now we will have a lot of new various thumbnails, so kids won’t event think that the game is different. They don’t care about UEFN, as long as players are still satisfied. Who cares about devs, they ain’t community that brings them money yet

LOL

Hello Epic Games. Nothing changed for the last 4 weeks - I reported those accounts and NO ACTION WAS TAKEN.

They keep spamming DAILY - 15+ copied maps, example in the past 24h:

Is someone at Epic being lobbied by those creators? Or maybe people at Epic are spamming those maps? As I see no actions are being taken. This is just a crazy joke.

No bans? Nothing.

It’s kind of sad to see that kind of alt account abuse. Doesn’t that mean that they’d have to push their financial info to each account? Epic should be able to identify them through that, unless they have other paid off users and at that point someone is putting too much effort into a major scam. I’ve spent two or three days on my hub island, trying to make it pretty detailed and unique. I’d hate to see it duped like that, or the game modes I have planned once I get the account verification for Creator.

This is pretty discouraging as a newer creator. I’ve been playing Fortnite since its founder days eight years ago, and this kind of hurts.

Fear not, Epic will solve this issue. :smirking_face:

players don’t need ur ahhh lobby map, even tho it is 10/10, Party Royale stuff works only for media or old af maps just bc of retention. Try PVP stuff with chill rooms, it can work

And my reality is this, my friends update 4 or 5 maps on the day of 38.00, and on the same day or two days later at most, ALL of them appear in the new and updates section. I update 7 or 8 submissions, activating the pet option (and fixing something that I see every time I open the map in UEFN, because I always find some error), and here I am still waiting, after 4 or 5 months, sending new maps, and what I have mentioned, updating whenever I can, and I NEVER appear in news & updates. Others (friends) or any of those mega-pros always come out, 100%. Of what I send, normally 1% appears and by chance (and in positions 20..30) the rest, as you can see, positions 1..2… Take realities.
Then I no longer comment on the fact that you disappear and then others put it after news and updates in 40 more sections… No comments.

Although things haven’t really changed drastically, the 27th fix did help a lot with n&u. Still lots to fix in categorizes especially kpop but generally the spam is being dealt with which is why they are crashing out here. as they say this is just one more step towards dealing with this issue just keep working hard.

This spam is hurting discovery tabs, especially new experiences has just completely lost its value the last month, look at new experiences now compared to not too long ago.. exactly what everyone here is warning will happen if this isn’t dealt with. These aren’t new experiences, not even in the slightest.

after just spending over a month creating a unique game in UEFN, only to get no discovery exposure or players…

Seeing these brainrot and red vs blue maps being recycled over and over again and actually gaining players, is very soul destroying for me to say the least.

Something is extremely broken. Some of these maps are not even a day old and already rewarding XP. Also every time they’ve released this map it’s gone straight to discovery, these people have discovered something about exploiting the discovery system.
