Fortnite: Time Played stat disabled to combat server stress

On Thursday when Season 3 of Fortnite Battle Royale was made available, it was taken offline 15 minutes later.

Luckily, Fortnite was back online a few hours later, but some other issues persisted.

One of the issues faced since Season 3 went live, was wins not counting towards players stats. Epic identified a fix on Friday evening, and resolved the issue around noon today. Unfortunately, any wins earned during the down period will not be added player stats.

At present, the Fortnite team has disabled the “Time Played” stat temporarily. This was done to help alleviate stress on the back-end services. An update will be provided when it has been enabled again.

There are other issues being tracked at present, and to keep up with everything, Epic has launched a Public Fortnite Trello board which provides an easy way to track community issues being investigated.

Other sections include those the team needs more information on, or have fixed for both Battle Royale and Save the World.

I totally new it, I knew my wins werent counting. I completely thought I was going insane. There's also another glitch in duos where you wont be able to see your friend in the pause menu after a long period.
