In Fortnite: Battle Royale (PC, PS4 & Xbox One) players with disabilities have suffered under the autorun feature. However, the developers responded immediately and promised help. They earned a lot of praise for it.
Those who want to run continuously in Fortnite: Battle Royale surely enjoy the autorun feature. However, there are also players who would like to turn this feature on and off at will. The Fortnite fan with the nickname RAOBJSheff has only one hand and plays Fortnite by pressing the left stick of the controller against his cheekbone.
So far, it has been going well, but the autorun feature has made him lose a lot of control lately, and he has been falling down constantly. Therefore, he asked the developers from Epic for help via Reddit.
Developers respond immediately and promise to implement autorun toggle
RAOBJSheff, who plays in a clan with other players with disabilities, certainly did not expect the developers’ quick response. Only 2 hours after he expressed his wish on Reddit, the developers from Epic had already spoken up.
The developers were impressed by RAOBJSheff’s skill in the game despite his handicap and promised immediate assistance. They want to implement a feature in the game that allows players to turn the autorun on and off at will.
Community is full of praise for Epic, even more people are getting Fortnite!
RAOBJSheff was extremely pleased with the developers’ quick and positive response. The rest of the Fortnite Reddit community felt the same way. The comment from the Epic developer about implementing an autorun toggle received over 8000 upvotes on Reddit.
Even people who had never been interested in Fortnite before decided to start playing Fortnite and invest money due to this action.
The developers at Epic already have a good reputation as quick problem solvers who are close to the community and transparent. But the speed with which this situation was answered straightforwardly and without much fuss is remarkable even for this studio.
Now it remains to be seen whether they will be just as quick in fulfilling the player’s wish in Fortnite.
Fortnite is so successful, it could even be the biggest game in the West!
