Fortnite account ban warning issue while picking up downed enemies addressed by Epic Games

Fortnite Season 11 aka Fortnite Chapter 2 is live in the game. Fortnite Season 11 has added many new locations to the game including Holly Hedges, Dirty Docks, Frenzy Farm, Lazy Lake, Slurpy Swamp, Weeping Woods and Beachy Bluffs.

Fortnite Chapter 2 has also added some new elements to the game. Players can now carry their downed teammates, and they can also provide bandages to them with the help of a new weapon, The bandage bazooka.

But there is one downside of equipping ‘The bandage bazooka’ weapon. It takes up two slots instead of one, so players will only be able to equip three more items. Several new emotes have also been added to the game including ‘High fives’ and others.

But with this new update, some players are facing a ban warning while picking up enemies that are downed. A Fortnite leaker named ‘iFireMokey’ has highlighted this issue in a tweet on Twitter. Have a look at his tweet down below.

EmptyTux, an Epic Games representative, has taken this matter on Reddit and responded to it. He has confirmed that “Carrying and throwing an enemy player will not trigger a team warning/ban.” Well, if it is consistently happening with many players, then it can be a bug which needs to be addressed by Epic Games.

For a quick refresher, Fortnite Chapter 2 has added haystacks and dumpsters for players to hide. Players can also take their enemies and opponents by surprise with the help of Gas Tanks and explosive barrels.

Fortnite Chapter 2 has made another exciting addition to the game. Players can now swim in the water, and can also do fishing. The new season has also added motorboats to the game with the help of which players can traverse across the map pretty fast.

Fortnite Chapter 2 has also brought an all-new Battle Pass to the game which features new and interesting rewards at each tier. The latest update to the game has also added a brand new XP and levelling up system.

Also, a popular Fortnite leaker named, Hypex has leaked a ‘goldfish statue’. Many players believe that it may arrive into the game as a throwable item and will deal 90 damage to the opponents.
