Oct 11, 2018 - One of the rarest and most coveted skins in Fortnite is tearing the fan. 1,500 v-bucks, or around $15 dollars, compared to the 1,200 v-buck.
Due to an issue discovered with the “Self Refund” feature, we’ll be disabling it until we create a fix and make some usability improvements to the system.— Fortnite (@FortniteGame)To request a refund, visit the in-game Item Store and look at the purchase history. Scrolling through the purchases will show an option to return the item. A confirmation window will come up once a return is selected, and that’s it. Or at least that would be it except the features option is currently not available. Epic Games a few hours after the update went live that the refund feature has been disabled due to unspecified issues.Players who want to return an item must have first purchased the items within the past 30 days.

Some Reddit users on the suggested that the feature was disabled due to players abusing it in order to gain Battle Points.Aside from the refund feature, the 3.6 update for Fortnite did include a new. There were also to in-game weapons and items. Will start on April 26, right before the end of Season 3 on April 30.
If you’ve logged on to Fortnite over the last 24 hours, you’ve probably noticed that lobbies are overflowing with players who are wearing the same spooky costume. Veteran players know this as the Skull Trooper skin, a rare cosmetic that previously granted a high social status for Fortnite fans who donned it. Now, though, players are questioning whether or not the Skull Trooper skin is even special anymore.Over the last year, Fortnite players have built mythologies around its skins, with each costume implying something specific about its owner. A suit that makes players look like John Wick, for example, is the infamous calling card of the bone-headed players with a lust for killing.
Eventually, many players buy a skin because they want to communicate something about themselves to the larger fan base. Adds an additional dimension here: some skins have only been available during specific seasons, events, or holidays, or perhaps are simply not sold very often through the in-game store.
The in-game economy, combined with player-dictated status, means that a lot of Fortnite’s culture revolves around skins. Even if you don’t want a skin, you likely have an opinion on the types of players who would wear any given costume.Skull Trooper made its debut in Fortnite in November 2017, only to never appear in the shop again — until yesterday. During that time, the Halloweeny skin had gained a reputation and became one of the most coveted skins in the whole game. If you wore it, you were likely a badass, or so fans believed. So when Skull Trooper became purchasable again, nearly everyone wanted it. It didn’t matter that this time around, Skull Trooper was slightly more expensive: 1,500 v-bucks, or around $15 dollars, compared to the 1,200 v-buck cost of 2017.Arguably, the increased price was meant to account for the bells and whistles that Epic Games added to the skin. The skin comes with a set of challenges that grant you a back-bling cosmetic, but more curiously, it can also be customized to glow in special colors — but only if you owned the skin before yesterday.
Likely, the added customization option is Epic Games’ way of trying to preserve the sense of elite status for the skin. In practice, however, players are reporting that their lobbies have become nothing but Skull Troopers. Anecdotally, Fortnite fans at The Verge have also noticed this phenomenon in action. Buying the skull trooper and then going into the lobby for the Irish time during this update like — professional shitposter (@152Hamada)If you’re curious about what this looks like in action, here’s a screenshot from a recent game by YouTuber: Image:Bringing back Skull Trooper has had repercussions: some players are miffed that their skin has become too common, thereby stripping it of its unique aura.
Having a special color doesn’t erase the fact that nearly everyone can look a lot like you now if they have the money for it. Players who have built an identity around being “OGs” of Fortnite — Skull Trooper was introduced before the game properly exploded — feel like Epic has ruined the experience for them.
Others just don’t want to wear something that’s too popular. Reddit userWhatever your opinion on the Skull Trooper is, one thing is for certain: if this many players are buying it, Fortnite’s developers likely made a fortune yesterday. (While we don’t have any specific numbers, try this conservative thought experiment on for size: if only 1 percent of Fortnite’s 78 million players bought Skull Trooper yesterday, that comes out to over 11 million dollars in sales.) In Fortnite, the in-game culture is an asset for Epic Games. The more players build something up and the longer the developer holds out on selling something, the more fans will want it, regardless of how good it actually is.
