@FortniteStatus I'm having an issue where the game cannot start up at all because Epic blocks Linux players from
playing. Is there any plan on fixing this?

@FortniteStatus Hopefully you fix and tweak SBMM as it’s been awful since 9th of December. Plus please look into DX11/12 performance mode as some ppl are getting strange dot like textures like in the pictures. Doesn’t happen in full DX12. https://t.co/Yi3R9pSh0e
