"Fortnite" players shared their negative experiences with the game. Some of them said that they can't open their "Fortnite" accounts since they don't have permission to play. 

Meanwhile, others are not able to connect to the servers after logging in. The most annoying one is the issue with the Epic Games launcher. Many gamers said that they can't properly open this service. 

In other news, "Fortnite" moved to Unreal Engine 5, which can further enhance the game's visual effects.
