Fortnite, the popular battle royale game, has recently encountered a glitch that is preventing players from redeeming rewards from the bonus battle pass. This issue has left many players puzzled about its origin.
Fortnite introduced the bonus battle pass rewards as an incentive for players to continue playing even after completing the battle pass. Each reward page adds new elements to the characters from the main battle pass, with the complexity of the skins increasing as the pages progress.
However, a recently discovered bug is hindering players from progressing any of the rewards within the bonus passes. The glitch appears to be related to the game not counting quests from weeks 0-3. As a result, the first page of Bonus Quests has become unobtainable for players who have already completed these quests, as the progress doesn’t track until the Bonus Quest Rewards are activated. This issue is expected to persist with Pages 2 and 3 unless Epic Games addresses it before their release.
The revelation that rewards could not be obtained has led to a wave of criticism from the player community, particularly regarding the issues faced in Chapter 5 Season 2. One user commented, “I’m noticing this whole season has been nothing but a disaster… from the almost one-day wait to this stuff not even being obtainable right now. To the shitty exp we get this season that doesn’t even get us a full level. It’s really sad.”
The sentiment was echoed by others, with some expressing confusion about how such issues could arise. Some players even questioned whether Epic Games had adequately tested these features before their release.
As of now, Fortnite has not addressed the issues with leveling up or obtaining bonus rewards. This means players will have to manage without these features for the foreseeable future or until the next update. This situation underscores the importance of thorough testing and timely bug fixes in maintaining a positive gaming experience.
