"READ IF YOU'RE AT EPIC": Fortnite player takes matters into their own hands, writes out bug fixes for over 350 problems "for the developers of OG"

Fortnite character Jonesy looks shocked in the story trailer for Season X.

One dedicated Fortnite fan has taken the time to document hundreds of bugs in Fortnite OG: Season 5, and they've even included possible hot fixes in case the folks at Epic Games take notice.

"Compared to just a few months ago, Fortnite OG is a lot less buggy overall, but there's still loads of bugs," twitterer AllyJax recently wrote on social media before delivering a mammoth thread of every remaining "notable issue" that they're currently aware of. I tried counting how many bugs were listed, but my finger cramped before I could scroll all the way down, which should tell you enough.

"IMPORTANT: READ IF YOU'RE AT EPIC," the thread continues alongside a link to a long, long list breaking down all of OG's issues. "What is fixable via Hotfixes is fixed below, what is not is separated into sections below the hotfixes here," they continue. "All issues have what to change to FIX them listed, the aim here is to make this as easy as possible for someone at Epic to go in and fix. "If you're at Epic and reading this, hi! I hope this makes your life easier, all I want is for this mode to be in the best state it can be."

AllyJax calls the document a "very in depth list of all issues and how to fix them, every incorrect asset, every little thing, even including a hotfix that would instantly fix well over 50 major issues."

Of course, though the dedication is admirable, there's no guarantee that all or any of these hot fixes would really work until someone at Epic Games tries to implement them. Still, AllyJax put in an amusing amount of effort.

...which has seemingly paid off as Epic Games has officially responded. "Huge thanks for pulling all this together in one spot, your pastebin was so helpful," an official Fortnite social media response reads in part. "A bunch of these bug fixes were already lined up for this next update, and we've marked several more for investigation. See you in OG, tysm for playing!!!"

Fortnite players do Helldivers 2 grunts proud, squash 100 million of the new season's bugs in 12 hours even without a Major Order propelling them: "An incredible start to repelling this invasion"
