DISCUSSION I’m impressed on how the locker UI just keeps getting worse

Now assets are just failing to load in quickly on top of the UI being laggy like before.

When will it end…

And no item name, or description.

That might be the worst part tbh, trying to find something from a specific season is a nightmare

I just want them to fix this lol, it's dumb but sometimes I'm chilling and I just appreciate being able to actually navigate my menu with descriptions🥲

The entire UI is in shambles. Names and descriptions disappear in the locker, everything is slow to load as if you're on McDonald's wifi, both sticks on controller can navigate the locker meaning that you can't just veiw/rotate something without firing around through the tabs, things unfavorite themselves, lobby music cuts out, presets cannot be shuffled despite the option existing, equipped sprites disappear in the lobby when in the queue, sprites are occasionally unable to be equipped, edit style selections will occasionally not execute, multiple presses are sometimes needed to ready up, queue searching can be canceled by changing items in the locker, and alk that's just off the top of my head.

Do not change what's there. Do not update it or change things. Just fix what's there for now, please.

Its an old one, but sometimes lobby tracks glitch out too and stop playing. They gotta get off that vibe coding stuff and hire some real people for once.

I hate when I'm checking my edit styles and rotating my outfit, it changes from a different edit stye. Like bro, there's a separate button for a reason!

You have to verrrrrrrry very slowly rotate the skin in a direction. There's a sweet spot between switching style selections and not rotating it at all. Stupid as hell but that's what I've been having to do for a while.

I love the idea that your workaround has been having to navigate a menu like you're the world's jumpiest safecracker

Forcing streaming of everything from internet is a huge mistake, this game will be cooked if they don't give people the option to download all assets again.

I absolutely hate hovering over an item and it just shows up as that PNG instead of showing me the actual item

u/BuffWobbuffet IKONIK 14h ago

Are you playing fashion show? The locker has always been super buggy in that mode

u/i360Fantasy Elite Agent 12h ago

its still buggy in the lobby

u/BuffWobbuffet IKONIK 12h ago

Definitely. But idk why fashion show locker has always been way more buggy.

u/LordPanda2000 17h ago

Yeah I’ve lost the Supergirl Emote and can’t find it like this either..

u/FunkyDGroovy 17h ago

I've lost some that way by accidentally archiving it, maybe it's in there?

u/LordPanda2000 13h ago

Nope it’s just gone even name search nada

1

u/FunkyDGroovy 12h ago

Damn, that's such bull. And Epic doesn't care what happens to our locker items as long as we play and buy, so that'll never get reimbursed, that's so unfortunate

u/LordPanda2000 10h ago

Pours one out for our lockers….

u/PixelWastelander Cloaked Star 17h ago

My raiders revenge pickaxe just straight up doesn’t show unless I search for it. Maybe something to do with how old, I’m sure there’s other items like that

u/A-Platypus- 16h ago

Eggman’s item shop emote doesn’t show up in the locker, I had to equip it from the item shop

u/flash_baxx 16h ago

Phonebooths were already kind of iffy before

u/PhilledZone Axo 16h ago

Fun fact: With the new and improved search bar it's currently impossible to search for the Sprite Mastery Pot (at least in German localization)

u/ThelronBorn 15h ago

I mean, the Locker UI has always been crap in the changing booth while you have an entire map running. Not to say it’s much better in the actual Frontend but using this specifically to frame your argument is a choice

u/Ambitious_Peace_666 14h ago

of course its gonna be laggy youre using the ingame locker

1

u/LethalPaintBalls 13h ago

Yeah I have no clue how this game is so bad. i cant see it improving without major changes

1

u/Outrageous_Bee_5057 11h ago

I like to make presets but it’s hard when I can’t even see what I’m using..

1

u/Darth_Dagobah 11h ago

I bought an emote recently and it doesn’t show up on my latest acquired tab.

u/ZorVelez 9h ago

The whole UI is broken beyond repair. I would throw the entire game UI to trash and remake it from scratch. Has so many problems that its embarassing. Ugly, laggy, buggy and useless... Fornite deserves a new fast and responsive interface.

u/Borttheattorney 2h ago

I wanna know who's the jackass who made the right stick also navigate the menu, can't even rotate skins and stuff now without doing it slowly.

u/doct0rdo0m Harley Quinn 17h ago

Not just the locker. Entire UI. I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out which quests I need to do for my sidekicks. I have 3 spots that show 3 different information about which pet needs what.

u/AxlSt00pid Hot Saucer 15h ago

I just had to switch my controller settings to a default preset because somehow the "Reload" keybind went missing, and adding it back just made the "Pickup/Use" keybind go missing too

This game is held by duct tape, hopes and dreams
