### Summary Rounds start to end instantly after round 45 and forward. The game gets stuck on infinite cycle where a new round starts and ends instantly. ### Please select what you are reporting on: Creative ### What Type of Bug are you experiencing? Assets ### Steps to Reproduce 1. Have last man standing setting enabled while having rounds set to +45 2. Play to round 45 and see the game stuck on infinite cycle of instant round start → round end ### Expected Result Rounds work normally to the limit ### Observed Result Game gets stuck on a cycle of rounds ending and starting instantly ### Platform(s) All platforms ### Island Code 0105-1573-8859 ### Video [![](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/b/7/d/b7d3c75cd7538689f4926ee64b97ce617db7b0c2.jpeg "Example of round end bug") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8VY9SUKMQA) [![](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/8/f/8/8f89dc95043bb99f0b7f331fe625aa034314a5da.jpeg "ROUND ENDING INSTANTLY PROOF") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeSdPvE6bjA) [![](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/3/f/8/3f8e5b559c9575d18d5000aacbedf240f188a907.jpeg "Perpetual ending bug in Fortnite Winter Rocket vs cars") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pax_L5h_Eq0) ### Additional Notes I suspect it has something to do with cars, maybe specifically the whiplash/sports cars, since they seem to be the most unstable vehicles. Also, the ‘last man standing’ mechanic is probably part of the issue, because the bug didn’t occur when I used a different ending mechanic instead of ‘last man standing’. ---

Yeah I’ll send them, when I manage to reproduce it. It’s a rare bug but my players who play the most seem to get it every few days. ---
