In Fortnite there is currently a bug that causes players to die instantly at a certain location. Instead of getting upset about it, players actually love this glitch.
This is the death zone: Near Fatal Fields, you will find this deadly area. There, a large knife and a large fork are embedded in the ground. If you step on this knife, you will die instantly.
Although Epic has already confirmed this as a bug, many players celebrate this glitch. The topic has gained a lot of traction on Reddit, and fans want to keep the bug.
This is why the bug is so loved
This is what’s behind it: Fortnite is affectionately referred to as “Fork Knife” by some players. This joke plays well with Epic, who has already included a truck in the game that says “Fork Knife” on it.
That is why the knife and fork were also engraved into the ground at Fatal Fields. The fact that a glitch occurs exactly at this spot, which was originally meant as a joke, delights many players.
This is what was initially thought: After the error became known, many players considered it a funny Easter egg. They thought Epic had taken revenge on players for constantly referring to the game as “Fork Knife.” At least, that is what some fans suspected.
There was clarification: Epic weighed in on the topic on Twitter and referred to the issue as a bug. They aim to fix it as soon as possible.
This is what players love about the bug: On Twitter, Epic was repeatedly asked after their tweet if they could keep the bug. After all, it fits so well with the story of “Fork Knife.”
There were also other reasons for this. For example, “Srcheeto” wrote: “Do not fix the bug. It’s a knife, and that’s just dangerous!”
Another user writes: “Don’t mess with the Fork Knife! Lmao”
Also, on Reddit , the topic is being discussed. A user writes there: “Haven’t your parents taught you not to play with knives?”
What do you think of the bug? Annoying, or do you find it funny too?
Another bug is not so well received by players:
