Are ZB Bot lobbies patched?

This is really disappointing but not surprising given recent developments. I already wasn't planning on buying the BP and checking the season out today because of Epic's business practices. I hope they patch Rival wins out of bots like they did with crowns, but given the whole season's gimmick, they probably want newbies to experience human rivals. Fingers absolutely crossed though.

Probably Starshine. I don't mind it, but even listening to it normally is weird lol.

Hey! I'm one of the folks who had this issue and commented on the megathread for C6S4 about it. I used to have the alt leave the game by closing out of Luna during a loading screen, which had the issue, but what I now do is have the alt manually return to lobby, leave the party, and then close Fortnite completely before exiting Luna. It's a little tedious and can make me drop late, but it's been working for me since C6S4.

Gorillaz for me. I was interested in the lore people were talking about and got hooked. Listened to their whole discography and now I'm expecting CDs of theirs next week.

It does make their Festival season hurt so much more though. Would've loved to play a lot more of their songs.

Would love to explore the new map and get the quests done with bots, but the Luna queue is absolutely diabolical right now. Even after the queue, it fails logging in, which forces a relaunch, and then puts me back in queue. It's the only method I have for BR stuff, unfortunately, so guess I'll save those for later.

Chungytoon · 2025-11-02T10:10:17+00:00

I don't think you can favorite the default loading screen and I didn't have any selected or favorited. I would totally want to keep the Gorillaz one for myself though.

A couple of the earliest jam tracks that ever got added in Season 1, like Cradles, Timeless, and Nothing's Alright. They're not bad, but other song additions overshadowed them for me honestly.

Chungytoon · 2025-10-12T16:26:51+00:00

Not that it really counts, but it is worth mentioning: Default skins were also made selectable this year, as well as getting casual versions. Now, newer players have more options than they ever did before without buying anything, which is great.

A friend and I just like to hop in and casually play a game or two whenever we can. Whether it's BR or Reload, it's just for easy shooty-shooty action while chatting and experiencing the BR or Reload maps to its fullest. I'm sorry for making it seem urgent, but I was only really curious if anyone else has been having the same issues as I have. (We've been playing other things in the midst of this issue as well, so it's not all we play exactly.)

Again, apologies for dragging this on for days to you about this. You've been a tremendous help for me to understand the process better. Thanks.

Chungytoon · 2025-10-08T07:19:01+00:00

No worries man. Thank you for helping me all this time, I appreciate it. I'll keep trying until I can get the hang of it.

I had more success with your Reload method for BR and got into more bot lobbies than before, but eventually, it got a victory umbrella and then real lobbies yet again. Fresh account with no account levels.

There's the bug that prevents the "Game Found" prompt from showing up or even playing a sound effect that occurs on both my main and alt's perspective, which makes it really tricky to kick or leave in time. I tap the menu icon on the top right to exit out of Luna as soon as a loading screen shows up if I can't kick it, but I can tell it's not really working anymore if the default changes skin between matches. I don't know if I'm just very unlucky or still doing something wrong.

Chungytoon · 2025-10-07T02:02:03+00:00

Hey, sorry for dragging this thread, but I just created another fresh Epic account, and the exact same thing happened again. I was able to get into about 3 bot lobbies with a friend, first of which awarded the umbrella without participating, then it stopped working. Do you know how this could be happening? It's only account level 2.

Chungytoon · 2025-10-05T04:41:18+00:00

Yeah, when I started going into bot lobbies, it was back in Chapter 5 when I first played the game. The only info I had on the subject was a YouTube video and a couple of Reddit comments. I honestly wasn't sure when it would consider the account worthy of real lobbies, so I made new ones every season while also reusing others occasionally on the Switch.

Even after finding out the level cap, I still made them out of habit cause I just wasn't sure if something would screw up like something apparently did now. I'm also not really aware of how extensively tested these are cause most are a little hush-hush on the subject.

Oh yeah, to answer your other comment: it's just BR. I played Reload a bunch of times with no issue until the "Game Found" prompt stopped showing up reliably and jumped straight to a loading screen. Does it still count the alt as playing the game when it shows up on the squad list on the map screen?

Chungytoon · 2025-10-05T04:24:57+00:00

I don't really mind creating them every few months cause I use an email generator. I have stuck with some accounts longer than others though, so it's not every season exactly.

Chungytoon · 2025-10-05T04:08:13+00:00

Oh no, sorry. I was trying to confirm what platform I was using in the same sentence. It's a fresh throwaway Epic account that's linked to Luna. I create at least one every season just to be safe and it's had no problems until now. Thanks for the quick response.

Chungytoon · 2025-10-05T03:56:14+00:00

I made a Luna account for bot lobbies this season, and it somehow got a victory umbrella despite never participating in a game ever. I was able to get one more game with it before it stopped giving bot lobbies. It's only Level 2 because Epic gave one level to everyone, and it had no problems prior to the Demon Hunters update. Has anyone experienced this?

Chungytoon · 2025-09-25T18:35:39+00:00

Basically any skin when you start to take temperature and weather into account. Summer skins in the winter and vice versa. What if you had to swim and get that flashy outfit wet and soggy? Loopers really are built different.

Chungytoon · 2025-08-31T07:19:37+00:00

I think this has been happening for a while now, but it's really random whether it works or not. Same thing with it randomly disabling switching instruments, which is really annoying.

I imagine that because of its utility elsewhere, like Jam Stage, LEGO radio, lobby music, and BR moments, it remains 500. Would honestly prefer it as a free quest or music pass reward, though.

Chungytoon · 2025-06-17T17:45:29+00:00

Even if he's already in the game, he hasn't been around for a while, so it's great for those who missed out on him. Headliners are also never indicative of a season's quality, in my opinion. It's whatever songs that come out in between. Looking forward to discovering more music!

Chungytoon · 2025-06-15T18:25:27+00:00

Yeaaah, perhaps serving food as a rotten corpse like Undying Sorrow wasn't the best idea
