Thanks to @FortniteME for looking into the Middle East server issues and getting them fixed in battle royale. The improvement is definitely noticeable and the community appreciates the quick response.
However, the problem still hasn't been resolved in reload and creative. Players across the GCC are continuing to get significantly higher ping in those modes, making the experience feel inconsistent depending on what you're playing. It's frustrating to see BR working properly while reload and creative are still affected. We'd really appreciate it if the team could investigate those modes as well and bring them in line with the battle royale servers. @FortniteStatus
middle east servers are a complete mess right now. players across the GCC are stuck on 100–150 ping while tournaments and cash cups are happening. I'm getting lower ping on EU than on ME servers, which makes zero sense. The game feels awful to play and it's killing any motivation to even queue up. @FortniteStatus@FNCompetitive@FortniteME
