r/LEGOFortnite

This post is quite self-explanatory, maybe even low effort, but with the vast amounts of NPCs in the game I thought it would be fun for y'all to share who you'd want to see in a set next year. For me, it's these guys from most to least wanted

I think im not the only one who wants trains in lego fortnite. If they're gonna add this, its gonna be amazing.

Hey everyone! I’m working on scaling down my Nissan Skyline design to work with the small scale wheels, but I’m struggling with how to design the front bumper and headlights. Here ive built 4 different examples of how the front could look so…

Which is your favourite?

With this upcoming update, where is this supposed pop-up to collect a log-in reward.
I just logged in and got nothing…

I took my Dodge Charger build and turned it into a full-size Monster Truck in LEGO Fortnite. 💥

Huge wheels, aggressive proportions and a completely different look from the original Charger.

Really happy with how this one turned out. 🔥

What do you think?

MASTER YOUR BUILD
The way you build in Odyssey is changing - for good. 

Starting with update 42.00, we’re rolling out the biggest change to building yet - and it’s only the first step. From now through the rest of the year, every update adds a new building skill, each one stacking on the last, taking you from everyday building to true Master Builder. This is where it starts. 

So, what's first? Say hello to Quick Build.

Quick Build replaces Guided Build as the new default way to build in Odyssey - and it's a big leap forward. Faster builds, less grind, more of your ideas brought to life.

The more you build, the faster it gets - and the more pieces you can place at once - so those huge creations come together in a fraction of the time. Give it a go and see how it clicks.

Prefer building brick by brick? That's still here too, whenever you want.

The full trailer drops August 20 on our LEGO Fortnite YouTube channel. Get ready! 

How does Quick Build work?

• The more you build, the faster it gets 
  • Building picks up speed as you go, and you'll place more pieces at once.
• Take on bigger builds
  • Large, detailed creations that used to take forever now come together in a fraction of the time.
• Brick by brick, whenever you want
  • Prefer the hands-on approach? It's still here - and it still uses resources, just faster and smoother than before.
• Built for mobile too
  • We've fine-tuned the touch controls, and you'll see the full blueprint as you build - so building on the go feels better than ever.

Your builds, in the game. 

This community is what makes Odyssey what it is - so we’re putting YOUR builds front and center. Two Creator Builds are joining Odyssey, each carrying its own Creator Crest: a mark that says this one came from a player. 

First up is a build from Haskyns’ Skyfang Marauder (August 20) - just log in, hit the pop-up and it’s yours. A second build from Spixylei’s Crown of the Abyss lands on August 27th, so there’s more on the way!

Beyond these building improvements and new tools, there’s more content and updates planned for the rest of the year. Stay tuned for more news soon! 

🏁  Build Disaster Community Challenge

You've got the parts. The only question is: how fast can YOU build?

Parts flying everywhere? Bricks tumbling off mid-build? Even better - that's the good stuff. Show us your funniest, most chaotic moment building either of the two new Creator Builds from this update. Post your clip on the LEGOFortnite subreddit and use the #LEGOBuiltDifferent flair so we can catch it, starting August 20. Let's see what you've got!

✅ LEGO® Fortnite Bug Fixes & Improvements

• You can now place snap building parts next to one another while they are still assembling 
• Exotic Rear Bumper 04 will no longer change position when you rejoin your world 
• Swivel plates now trigger audio 
• Fixed an issue where players may get stuck in the Spinjitzu animation 
• Resolved an issue where the Ninjago Island quest would spawn inside a mountain 
• Fixed an issue where dismissing a Villager didn't work as expected 
• The Kraken is now no longer partially invisible at the start of the battle
• [Brick Life] Fixed an issue where some players would get softlocked inside a gardener bush 
• [Brick Life] Players can now grab the Heart Want in the Rooftop Club on the Main Stage 
• [Brick Life] Players can now pass an order item through dialogue to NPCs 
• [Brick Life] The ability for players to change the color of light props in the Daft Punk Prop Bundle has been re-enabled
• Known Issues Being Fixed in a Future Game Update:
• Occasionally, building certain Quick Build pieces can cause the progress modal to get stuck in an unusual state. If this happens, hovering over or placing another piece or exiting and re-entering Quick Build should resolve it
• The resource info widget in the Build menu sometimes doesn't display the full list of materials needed to construct an item
• On mobile, the main tabs aren't fully visible by default - players need to scroll to see all available options
• On mobile, subtabs may disappear after opening and closing the Build menu -  switching to a different tab and back will make them reappear
• We're investigating an issue causing some players to experience unusually long teleportation loading screens
• We're investigating an issue that may prevent players from selecting a world to play in. As a temporary workaround, switching to a different game mode and back should restore world selection
• On the controller, Quick Build piece information can visually block the UI for flying controls 
• The Quick Build progress percentage and Pieces Remaining counter only update when the cursor moves to a new part

See you in Odyssey,
The LEGO Fortnite Dev Team

Full post: https://communities.epicgames.com/thread/lego-r-fortnite-odyssey-quick-build/BWCf/ I was just gonna comment on the StatusBot post but, between the schedule and long post, I figured I'd just share anew so more users will hopefully see it. Just pulling out a few highlights here:

>From now through the rest of the year, every update adds a new building skill, each one stacking on the last, taking you from everyday building to true Master Builder.

>Quick Build replaces Guided Build as the new default way to build in Odyssey - and it's a big leap forward. Faster builds, less grind, more of your ideas brought to life. The more you build, the faster it gets - and the more pieces you can place at once - so those huge creations come together in a fraction of the time. Give it a go and see how it clicks.

^(Sounds like the pieces it shows is based on what's placed, so you build out however you like instead of following hard instructions. If so, this is excellent news for those who like to customize but not necessarily build from scratch.)

>This community is what makes Odyssey what it is - so we’re putting YOUR builds front and center.

^(I guess we can perhaps make and submit builds for official inclusion? That's cool.)

The schedule posted is probably not everything we'll get this year, just confirmed teases. From the schedule, "Save Build" sounds straightforward: Save a build as a blueprint for use elsewhere (in another world? shared via a code?). I'm curious what "Edit Build" will be: a feature I've requested is that the player can swap out a piece for a same-size piece without having to both destroy and then find-and-place, perhaps that? No idea for sure, tho

Hey its Kay! I just uploaded my first video tutorial in over two years, and i just wanted to share this thumbnail i made for it. I really like how this showroom set came out, and I’m glad i was able to feature a muscle car, a supercar, and a sports car front and center :)

Here are my boats in my survival world, and I'm very proud of them. The first one has a deck with a huge storage capacity, and the second one is from a tutorial which comes from Haskyns

(NSFW BC OF TGE MUSIC)When Lego fort first dropped I had issues building water temples bc there was no base even with one placed I came back and in 2 days this is what I have (the begging part was from my first time playing and sorry for the song I had my mic on recording and didn’t wanna leave yall with no noise or anything) song-realest alive by (lil b)
