Sometimes, subtle audio cues make all the difference in immersion—especially when you’re expecting a truck to roar and instead hear a soft car beep. It feels off and breaks the vibe, especially during roleplay or creative map experiences.

In the latest update of Unreal Editor for Fortnite, honk sounds for trucks and taxis have unexpectedly changed. Regardless of vehicle type, the honk now mimics a standard car—short, light, and lacking character.

Steps to Reproduce:

  • Enter a truck or taxi in map 1151-2508-1614
  • Press honk
  • Compare the sound to older versions or gameplay clips

Expected Result:

  • Truck: deep, long, loud honk
  • Taxi: sharp, distinct honk

Observed Result:

  • All vehicles sound like regular cars

For companies like My Chauffer—a premium London-based service—it’s key for vehicles to feel authentic. This bug, while small, affects realism in gameplay and user-created experiences. Hoping it’s fixed soon for a smoother drive!
