Description
We’re investigating the various reports of weapons and their perks not functioning correctly after the 14.30 update. Some of these symptoms include:

according to @HYPEX these have been here since last season. I just now saw these cause Fortnite tried loading these when starting the game.
It could be a scrapped idea or its something for the future, not sure with this little information.

Same as always, we’ll update the post once all the datamined info has been shared. Ditto with the official list of fixes and changes.
Again, for PS4 gamers, sit tight! We expect the patch will be available on your platform sometime soon (within the week). Once we do know more about that, we’ll let our readers know.
Update: As far as we’re aware, that’s all the datamined info and fixes in today’s v14.50 Fortnite patch.
