I'm sure a lot of you guys have tried to play some Fortnite today and have been put into a queue. Something went wrong with the Fortnite database and they are having some trouble with getting their backup back online after they added the patch. Currently, there is no proper estimated time for when the game comes back but they are trying their best to bring it back as soon as possible. Not sure what to do right now, I really want to play some Fortnite lol.

This is bad news. Actually, I never got the chance to play FBR again because of my hectic schedule as a student. Hopefully when I get a free time, FBR will be up and I can play it.

That is pretty surprising to me, but at the same time you can take it as a sign that the game is pretty popular and growing, which is good to see. I would like a estimated time to get back up though.

The game is definitely getting extremely popular and I'm sure the number of people playing the game is going to increase quite a lot. But that wasn't the problem here. This downtime was actually caused by the database backup having a problem when the Fortnite team wanted to turn the game back online after updating the game. The game is back up now though, it has been up for a while now.

I didn't try to play the game during the downtime. I only found out later on Reddit. Not a big deal for me really, but I can imagine that people who have little free time and really wanted to play FBR might have been pretty pissed.

Well it wasn't a big deal at all

I would have to disagree with you there. I think that it actually was quite a big deal. The game was almost down for the whole day and it wasn't helped by the fact that the PlayStation servers went down the moment the Fortnite team fixed their end. It was actually quite a big deal especially for those who purchased the Battle Pass and had to rely on completing every single challenge to get to Tier 70.
