A new update has been released for Fortnite a few hours ago, introducing fixes for several issues.
Fortnite update 3.5.1 introduces fixes for issues that have been introduced by the 3.5 update in both Battle Royale and Save the World. The biggest change is a fix for a bug that allowed shooting before the end of the quip animation if the player was running. Catch the full patch notes below.
Battle Royale fixes
- ‘Building Edit’ hotkey can be bound to keys other than ‘G’
- Fixed an issue where players could fire weapons before the equip animation had finished, if they were sprinting.
- Fixed several client crashes that were related to the new Replay System.
- Fixed an issue that broke player’s walking/sprinting animations if they were firing a Guided Missile while walking/sprinting.
Save the World fixes
- ‘Building Edit’ hotkey can be bound to keys other than ‘G’
- We’re changing the Mini-Boss Mission Alerts for Canny and Twine back to their pre v3.5 state.
- ‘Repair the Shelter’ objective now activates when you interact with the control panel rather than be based on proximity to the objective.
- Granted all players two free Spring Llamas (can be found in the Loot tab).
- We’ve changed the way we convert event tickets. Players get 1 event Llama per 1000 tickets and 1 Llama for any tickets left over. (Example) If you have 5 tickets left at the end of the event, you still get 1 free event Llama.
Fortnite is now out on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
