Roblox is currently addressing a significant outage that began on October 29, 2021, causing widespread disruption among its users. The official Roblox Twitter account has been actively updating the public, stating their efforts to resolve the situation and apologizing for the inconvenience. Importantly, they clarified that this outage was not triggered by their recent partnership with Chipotle, thereby quelling rumors. As of the latest update 18 hours ago, Roblox has pinpointed an internal issue as the cause and is undertaking necessary engineering and maintenance to restore service. This prolonged downtime has rendered millions of user-created games on the platform inaccessible, significantly impacting both players and developers who depend on Roblox for their interactive experiences. The Roblox team is diligently working to ensure the platform's stability and reliability for its vast user base.
A recent leak indicates that Fortnite, the widely popular battle royale game, may soon introduce a "No Build" game mode, significantly altering its gameplay dynamics. Traditionally, Fortnite sets itself apart with a building mechanic that allows players to construct walls, stairs, and complex structures for tactical advantages. This potential new mode would remove the building aspect, aligning Fortnite more closely with traditional battle royale games like PUBG, where strategy is focused more on terrain navigation and direct combat. It remains to be seen whether this No Build mode will be a permanent fixture or a temporary variation in the game. Given Fortnite's history of rotating game modes to maintain player interest, the introduction of a No Build option could provide a fresh challenge for the community and impact how players engage with the game.
