Summary

SeveralFortnitefans have taken to social media to express their dissatisfaction with the game’s locker and how it divides skins, wraps, and emotes, among other things. This isn’t the first timeFortniteplayers have complained about the locker, and Epic Games still hasn’t addressed the issue.

Fortnite, a hugely popular online battle royale game by Epic Games, features players battling it out to be the last one standing on an ever-shrinking map. Recently,Fortnitekicked off a new season called Absolute Doom, a major collaboration withMarvel. This season introduces a ton of fresh content, including characters like Doctor Doom, Gwenpool, and War Machine, each with their own special abilities and weapons. However, even with all the new additions, players have a recurring concern that Epic Games still hasn’t addressed: the locker.

The controversy centers around the division ofFortniteitems such as skins, wraps, and emotes into separate presets. This change, which Epic Games introduced a while ago, hasn’t been popular with the community. Players feel that the new setup has made things more complicated compared to the old, simpler system. A Reddit user named StarlitSphere shared their frustration with the locker, which sparked a lot of other players to voice similar concerns. Another player mentioned that it’s now tougher to match specific skins with custom presets, a feature they really appreciated in the previous version of the locker.

Fortnite Players' Complaints About the Game’s Locker

Adding to the frustration, players remember that Epic Games promised to address these concerns months ago. Despite the assurances, there hasn’t been any noticeable change, leading to accusations that the developers have either forgotten their promise or don’t care about player feedback. Many are now calling for a return to the locker system from Chapter 2, which they find to be simpler and more functional.

The frustration is compounded by the feeling of being ignored. Some players believe that Epic Games quickly tackles issues that impact their profits but is less responsive to concerns that don’t directly affect their bottom line. This has led to a growing sense that the company is more focused on rolling out new content and collaborations, like the currentFortnite Marvel-themed season, rather than fine-tuning and improving the core aspects of the game.

As the weeks go by without any updates to the locker, the community’s dissatisfaction continues to grow. Whether Epic Games will eventually addressFortniteplayers' ongoing concerns about the lockerremains uncertain, but for many, the wait has already felt far too long.
