The separation of skin, emotes, lobby and wraps is just so bizarre to me. Isn't it obvious that we make presets so that it all fits perfectly together? Why would we want it separate? It's such a nightmare to select everything now.
To me it is the bane of my existence. I literally hate it. Having to swap through pages of 6 items. It all used to be on one and was fast and easy and fun. Now it's slow painful and not fun. And looks in my opinion 50x worse. This is the worst looking locker I have ever seen in any game. It's a mess. I just want an option to use the old locker at this point cause they are not gonna fix this..
And yes nightmare is right. I just set a skin up. Deleted it all on accident. Reset it. Went to emotes cause I forgot them are seperate save now. Set them... deleted 🤣 Even if I had not oopsied it still woulda took 2x as long. Like I am very tempted to put down fortnite till this blows over or gets patched. It's just terrible locker.
@@lawipod I use it cuz basically I run four presets: random All, random no bling/contrail/etc, default skin random all, default skin random no bling/others. Now I only can run random all, but it hurts alittle I can’t run without bling or default skins I have to do manually..
I am 100% with you, I lost a few of my best presets that I had since Chapter 3, and it really hurt that I lost them since I really took my time to make each of my presets actually match the characters; and their personality in the game lore. Now? I am just like. Okay, so just going to use one skin all the time now. I have not wanted to make a new preset or locker this chapter. Because I can not make them personalized and unique anymore.
Yep it's bad bad. Like I don't even wanna edit my stuff cause it's like working on a apple computer. The whole thing feels like a counter intuitive mess. Looks aweful I think and works even worse.
I’ve been able to get behind all the UI changes even if there was stuff that I hated. But this is just one change that no matter what, I’ll forever dislike. Their goal was to make the locker be more sleek and simple to navigate, but clearly it was the exact opposite.
Absolutely agree! I do presets for every character I buy individually,with different emotes,music,loading screens etc. And now half of my emote and wrap presets are gone 😢 characters who used to smile a little bit have poker faces and my Peely skins frowning 😮 locker (and lobby) UI was absolutely ok,no changes needed! And now it’s a frustrating experience every time I want to switch character. I don’t feel like playing at all this chapter. Every time I think of dealing with this new locker system I don’t feel like opening my game at all....
I’d definitely say my main issue with the new design is it overcomplicates stuff that wasn’t needed. Like why does lobby need its own tab? it’s 3 things! but here’s my general idea for how this could be improved Character,wraps,emotes and lobby all go back to being one tab again(if it aint broke why fix it) and have instruments and jam tracks be one tab(no real need to separate them if they’re part of the same mode) and cars can stay one tab because there isn’t really one thing they could be attached to There compressed 7 tabs into 3 why add separate tabs that just clutter up everything as for the characters,why have rarity if it can’t be seen in the locker. I’d they could have the og back round for them(rarity color behind character) and it would be fine.
Also forgot to mention something, Why is aura in the character menu!? it feels so out of place compared to everything else, why not just make apart of the fortnite festival stuff?
I don't mind the new UI fonts and modernised looks they've been using/updating, but this new Locker overhaul is a complete mess for an infinite number of reasons. They could've just updated the old UI with the new fonts and general design they've recently been going for and it would've been perfect! Why did we need to COMPLETELY overhaul the Locker in arguably the worst way possible? Really hoping that Epic changes things up here. I mean, they just listened to our feedback on movement, SURELY this has to be next, right? THIS is my biggest issue with the new season, not even the new movement. I LOVE the new movement! But with all due respect to the people who made the new UI, this is just a mess and a change that really didn't need to happen.
Im glad someone talking about this about the emotes separated from the skins its a bad take from epic i hope they listen and bring it back to normal where its both connected.
2 months later and they still haven’t fixed it. I haven’t skipped a battle pass since I started playing in 2019, but the UI this season is so bad that I found playing the game more frustrating than fun, so I just skipped it. I didn’t buy it, and I haven’t bought any skins. I’m just not playing this season because I don’t want to log into a video game and be annoyed. Games are supposed to be fun, and I’m not having fun when I can’t easily access all the skins and pre-sets that I’ve bought and made over the past 5 years. Either they fix is in the next season or I continue to not play.
Someone seriously needs to get fired for this. They absolutely wrecked the locker UI, and I too will not spend anymore money on skins if i cannot assign wraps, emotes, music, etc. to my characters anymore.
I never understood why they went decided to do a thorough rework of the UI. You now have to navigate and action through tons of panels which feel ridiculous on PC. Customizing your character is just one of the more difficult things to do now. The previous chapter's UI was clean and efficient to navigate (maybe aside from their gamemode tab). The lack of tabs in general is frustrating, it feels like everything is just spewed into the screen space. I suspect it's maybe for mobile users since panels are easy to interface with your fingers. Still, could they not have separate UI designs for mobile and Console / PC? It's the same problem as Call of Duty's UI right now too, everything is made up of panels and too many tabs like it's some streaming service. I really hope they rewind their UX designs back a bit and constrain their approach from there.
yea i have the same issues, durring the OG saison i put in the effort to do around 80 presets of skins with fitting Wraps Emotes n stuff and they just NUKED the locker in chapter 5 s1 :(
Ugh, still nothing changed in Chapter 5 season 2, just added a Lego sets to the locker, cmon epic it’s been 3 months since you said of a “locker evolution”
Imo, the new UI is god awful on controller. It’s so clunky and hard to navigate through. Epic seriously needs to consider sending out polls to the community asking us what we would like/want prior to making big changes such as movement or UI.
Shuffling presets: gone. Favoriting cosmetics: now 10 times harder on PC (instead of just pushing F you have to open a drop down menu on each cosmetic like whhhhhhyyyyy) Easily being able to tell a cosmetic's rarity at a glance: gone (now they all have the same background instead of having different labels for Legendaries or Epics and the backgrounds for cosmetics from the Icon Series or Gaming Series are gone) My first DAY (LIKE TWO HOURS) of Chapter 5 was spent unfavoriting all my Chapter OG cosmetics and I just couldn't be bothered to make new loadouts. As soon as I unlock Oscar I'm just going to wear him with a nice back bling and not bother with cosmetics. I totally agree with you that this kills my desire to buy new cosmetics.
Also whats with the constant UI updates?? Imagine if another big company like apple changed the way you select apps and changed the font of all the apps?? It's stupid to keep changing it around, like you gotta think, if they want to make such a big change then they shoud perfect it before putting it out, same goes for movement.
The thing I hate most about the new locker is the fact you always have to clear the like little notifications, like I don't want the the game to inform me that I can random select my cosmetics every time I return to the lobby, like please fix that I don't want to clear all badges everytime I leave a game, this is small but the game never had a problem like this is chapter 1 which is when I started playing
What's been made worse for the sake of change Locker UI - need to click 2x, before just once in most windows Settings UI Storm speed Movement speed - crouch, walk, and run Movement animations (wtf?) Train behavior Gun mods - feel weird, especially scopes on shotguns Shotguns are worthless Lots of bugs especially visual and movement
I’m in the same boat. Worst part of the new chapter update is the locker presets. Deleted all of my presets and created an only a few to use. Can’t even use my favorite, Gear specialist Maya, unless they patched it.
I agree with everything you said except your never ending lecture. Having said that, I also don't like how there used to be one button to get to the top of your locker and now thats gone. It's an extra step, like you said, to sort things. I hate how they took away the background colors for the skins. It made it a little easier to navigate through the selection. One more thing I would LOVE ro see and I've been want this for a while; when you have a random outfit on it should tell you it's name. It's nearly impossible to find out what rarity it is or where to find it.
I agree with you 1 million percent! I was a cosmetic player. I played to lean into role play and cosmetics, dances ect. This change was not only uneeded, but truly to the detriment of the original Fortnite players who supported the game from the start. I can barely manage the change and make sense of where my presets are now, that which I spent an enormous amount of time creating by the way. How in the hell is a kid supposed to navigate this!!?? Please, for mine and others sanity.. FIX THIS IMMEDIATELY!!
Please revert the locker ui back to what it used to be Epic, please!!!! All you guys have to do is revert it back and add more locker slots, that’s all!!!! I will most definitely not be buying more skins or cosmetics if you guys don’t fix it. I had 100 pre made locker loadouts, now they’re useless because i’ll only be using one skin for now on
I don't even care about the movement stuff anymore. This new locker UI may or may not make me quit the game if it stays like this and they don't address how much of a NIGHTMARE it is to use the locker
Finally someone is bringing up this issue, I hate the locker setup & everyone I play with agrees, I would also change skins every few games but now I use basically 1 skin due 2 this issue which is my Huntmaster Saber Skin, plus more then a few of my presets, emotes & saved wraps have disappeared...
I like how the new locker UI looks but how they made emotes and skins in a diff preset that's so dumb and even wraps to like WHY?? but ig for now i'm just not going to make presets anymore😭 takes WAY longer then it needs to now.
Couldn't agree more!! I spent quite some time customizing my loadouts, and switching was easy, 3-4 clicks and you were done. Now it's been messed up, I have to scroll through 4 different sections just to match up everything again. I used to switch often, now I don't want to do it anymore as often 'cause it's such a waste of time. Regarding my locker, I just called the loadouts as the character name followed by a number, for example, Evie 1, Evie 2, Relik 1, Rian 1, Relik 2, Evie 3 and so on. It's kind of disorganized but I didn't mind, as I could just switch everything on the fly. Now I have to go to the Character column, find Evie 1 and select it, go back, then go to Emotes, find Evie 1, then go to Wraps, find Evie 1, then go to Lobby, and find Evie 1 again.... seriously, what were they thinking? And mind you, Evie 1 is literally my first loadout, and I'm still annoyed. Imagine my other characters that are way below..., yeah it's even more of a time waste. And I also play on keyboard and mouse.... yeah the whole thing is annoying. This is so inefficient, really. Literally all they had to do was increasing the loadout space beyond 100, or maybe just increase the emote slots from 6 to 8. We would be happy with just that. But no, they had to do this non-sense instead...
Yeah I am baffled at the menus.. I use controller and I just stopped trying to figure it out. Even if they don't change it, I would at least like to hear what they thought they were accomplishing lol... I mean it seems like a troll job. I would have fired who was ever over this portion of the design and development. It about 2-3x as clunky on controller.
I don't think it is a restriction as you describe it, it is more of an inconvenience to change every single detail in your locker if I want to change it in different matches. I Think Epic needs to revert this change tbh, since the locker system from previous chapter was fine for the most part imo.
you’re one of the very few creators that TRULY care about this game and are extremely wise. Been enjoying your content since chapter 3. So damn respectable
Same here, as the experience got bad, i dont want to buy cosmetics to match with other things, because i dont want to change things every time.... thats bad...
It's crazy that someone got paid to do this, like someone had one job that anyone could have done and they just completely ruined it. Also when you look at your presets in the list it doesn't show them with their backbling for some reason, and if you have two variations of the same skin saved as two different presents it will just show them both the same, even if they have different styles selected. So you have to select the skin to see which one it is. AND you can't look at different backblings in your locker anymore without it automatically selecting it on your character, because they got rid of the confirm button. Searching is worse. No shuffle. Separated presets for wraps and emotes... They ruined it in like every possible way they could haha it's unbelievable.
Some poeple like to just change their skin preset without changing their entire emote loadout, wich is why I think you should be able to link the presets together if you wanted to. Also I don't like how you cant preview styles/rotate the skin without equipping it. And not being able to see the rarity on the icon is annyoing when picking emotes and things like that. Plus, I really want more than 100 presets for things, concidering there are like 1500 skins. We also need folders for presets so that I can for example group my christmas stuff, and halloween stuff together.
Yep, I pretty much gonna cancel the club and stop buying skins unless they give shuffle presets back, I had 95 presets (they should also increase that), what's the point, can't force my friends to go back to lobby each time and I now feel like it's a waste having so many skins if it's such a chore to be able to see them.
Exactly. It takes so much more effort now. I have to now switch between 3 different presets and I think a good chunk of them got lost and I usually only change one or two emotes between presets so the icons for those all look the same. Why couldn't they just give us more locker presets instead of technically giving us 4x but with a ton of caveats? They better revert this ASAP!
This has been my main problem this chapter, I had so many cool presets that I could put on shuffle. Now it doesn't matter, because the emotes, loading screen, and wraps don't even work. I don't even know where you can shuffle to be honest. Can you still shuffle presets?
Absolutely agree with everything said! I hadn’t played FortNite in awhile and came back to all my presets missing emotes and unable to shuffle which was my favourite feature! Side note, in career history it looks like it’s been cleared?? I can’t see any of my previous achievements from past chapters 😢
The ui is horrible, my controller is messed up, so when I'm in the lobby I try to emote and it throws me down in the creative menu, so annoying, why even have it down there when there's a whole tab to the left of the lobby for it too? Annoying as hell
On controller my hands hurt less from playing than changing my locker around. I used the same 6 emotes at the top now but i had to rearrange all my presets. They actually added more and i love that but the setup is all gone and if they revert it ill have to reorganize it all. So i hope they add a shuffle n back to top
I totally thought I was missing something. Now I know they messed it up with update this sucks hope it changes because this is the only update messes with my experience
Totally agreed. Not only is the preset system terrible, but the selection system sucks! Like if you're in the music section, just hovering over an icon changes the music that's playing, making it jolting just to use the UI! Now, I don't mind having saved emote presets, for instance, as an _additional_ thing, but we NEED to have the whole entire presets that we've had throughout the entire time _before_ Chapter 5!
my solution sadly is to find a new game to be as invested in as i am in this shit fuck, i cannot believe they pulled this stunt why tf whyyyy i literally play for the presets an the money ive spent wow i feel like i an many others just got royally fucked prison style honestly epic has some audacity w this they really have some fuckin AUDACITY
The locker changes have taken so much enjoyment from the game! I have repeatedly been checking in to see what Epics response is to the gaming community. I know this is not necessarily a quick fix, but some response to validate our feelings, regarding this issue, would go a long way. Loadouts take allot of time to put together, and make time gaming with our friends so much meaningful. For people who have invested their hard earned money into the item shop, in order to polish and shine these loadouts, is especially a hurtful move.
I am like that... I know folks I play with are like just ready up.. no I need to have my characters match and I also wish they'd add the rarity back too...
The biggest problem I have with the new UI is the wraps because I'll enter a game and my wrap doesn't match so every time I want to equip a different preset I have to do twice as much work for me to do it all over again next time. I actually prefer the way they have emotes now cause I would equip a preset I haven't used in a few seasons and it would have a lot of emotes I wouldn't use and I would have to change like 3 or 4 emotes but now I don't need to but I think it does suck for if you put a lot of effort into the emotes. And then the lobby stuff I'm split about as I would keep the same banner on all presets and now I don't need to try and find one out of like 500 banners but I also use some music packs with specific presets. Overall thought I hope they go back
this video needs to reach a larger audience, this locker change is even worse with the new game modes. You can't change anything about your rocket racing loadout if you have the festival selected, and vice versa. Its so frustrating to have had all these presets and now they've become absolutely redundant.
We think the same way bro... I absolutely LOVE to make presets. Having my own collection with presets. They did wrong every aspect of this new chapter. I don t like it at all. I hope they will fix this soon.
As of today they still havent reverted the locker back to what it was before,but what also hurts is that certain characters(Marvel,DC,Gaming Legends,etc)dont even have their series respective background on their icons.Now its just the same blue background for every skin. April 9th 2024 Edit:They MADE THIS WORSE:they REMOVED the rarities
Completely agree with you on this. I may not have that many skins but I made presets for all the skins I really like. Was excited for Chapter 5 because both the battlepass and gameplay are amazing only to realise that I shouldn't even bother to make any presets for the skins because the locker is all messed up. I'm waiting for it to fix now.
Same here with making a ton of custom presets, the new locker UI genuinely just makes me not want to play it or get the new stuff either. I really hope something can be done with this, if they reverted it and stopped there, honestly would be perfect
Thanks for watching everyone! Please like and comment to help push this video out more!
Np
I just Liked every comment to help push this through the algorithm. I hope more people do the same.
@@robgable2426 that's dedication

Now you can't shuffle skins in between games.. you have to go back to the lobby and change it all
We need the shuffle locker presets back that was something so crucial and now it’s just gone for no reason.
I personally don’t use it that often that I didn’t even know it was removed until I read your comment 💀
@@lawipod I use it cuz basically I run four presets: random All, random no bling/contrail/etc, default skin random all, default skin random no bling/others. Now I only can run random all, but it hurts alittle I can’t run without bling or default skins I have to do manually..

And another part that i dont like about the new UI is that we can see the skins rarity

I'm with you 100%
Yep.
We need to choose our own preference of the Ui like
Classic Modern (Chapter 5) Or custom
Idk if they would ever do that but it would be a nice touch.
To be honest I doubt it. But it would be nice lol
But we can try backlashing
My thoughts exactly, this needs to be reverted, IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY! it's so FRUSTRATING just to change my presets now!
I feel the same way
I’d definitely say my main issue with the new design is it overcomplicates stuff that wasn’t needed. Like why does lobby need its own tab? it’s 3 things!

I agree, the new locker is a nightmare in every possible way
Since epic listened about the movement they are sure to listen to people about the locker.
But this time it’s actually worth complaining about.
They did not listen to the movement
Update: its been 4 months, a whole new season. They did not listen and I barely play the game now
Im glad someone talking about this about the emotes separated from the skins its a bad take from epic i hope they listen and bring it back to normal where its both connected.
I hope so too
Completely agree. I lost all of my main presets, and it sucks. The old locker was way better.
It does suck 😭
Dude, I am so happy guys like you are calling this out bc it is a problem for me too like marking favourite items is requiring too much effort

I haven’t skipped a battle pass since I started playing in 2019, but the UI this season is so bad that I found playing the game more frustrating than fun, so I just skipped it.

Same here!

To be fair though, I wouldn't listen to the community 😂😂 idk about polls. They just need to make it better.
I hate the presets so much, I have no idea why they changed it so drastically
They seriously need to fix the locker and revert it back it worked fine before now it's a pain to even make a preset!!
Shuffling presets: gone.
Favoriting cosmetics: now 10 times harder on PC (instead of just pushing F you have to open a drop down menu on each cosmetic like whhhhhhyyyyy)
Easily being able to tell a cosmetic's rarity at a glance: gone (now they all have the same background instead of having different labels for Legendaries or Epics and the backgrounds for cosmetics from the Icon Series or Gaming Series are gone)
My first DAY (LIKE TWO HOURS) of Chapter 5 was spent unfavoriting all my Chapter OG cosmetics and I just couldn't be bothered to make new loadouts. As soon as I unlock Oscar I'm just going to wear him with a nice back bling and not bother with cosmetics. I totally agree with you that this kills my desire to buy new cosmetics.
I can't see why they would take out shuffling though. Like I actually get a UI update, but SHUFFLE?!
Honestly 😂😂

It's stupid to keep changing it around, like you gotta think, if they want to make such a big change then they shoud perfect it before putting it out, same goes for movement.
I'm with you 💯%. I can appreciate that they want to improve the UI but this ain't it. It seems like we went backwards instead of forward.

What's been made worse for the sake of change
Locker UI - need to click 2x, before just once in most windows
Settings UI
Storm speed
Movement speed - crouch, walk, and run
Movement animations (wtf?)
Train behavior
Gun mods - feel weird, especially scopes on shotguns
Shotguns are worthless
Lots of bugs especially visual and movement
Again, 0 story progression.
Storm speed wasn’t changed. Character move speed was
I’m in the same boat. Worst part of the new chapter update is the locker presets. Deleted all of my presets and created an only a few to use. Can’t even use my favorite, Gear specialist Maya, unless they patched it.

Please revert the locker ui back to what it used to be Epic, please!!!! All you guys have to do is revert it back and add more locker slots, that’s all!!!! I will most definitely not be buying more skins or cosmetics if you guys don’t fix it. I had 100 pre made locker loadouts, now they’re useless because i’ll only be using one skin for now on
Unfortunately I'm not changing my cosmetics either with this
I used to buy skins all the time at least 100$ every season easily. Havent bought a single one since this locker change just too fucking annoying
Yup
I don't even care about the movement stuff anymore. This new locker UI may or may not make me quit the game if it stays like this and they don't address how much of a NIGHTMARE it is to use the locker
Yup
Finally someone is bringing up this issue, I hate the locker setup & everyone I play with agrees, I would also change skins every few games but now I use basically 1 skin due 2 this issue which is my Huntmaster Saber Skin, plus more then a few of my presets, emotes & saved wraps have disappeared...
It's unfortunate
Crazy that they removed all the backgrounds for specific rarities
Ikr!
I totally agree. This new locker UI is terrible. 🤦
@epicgames every word of this. I’m also not buying skins anymore due to this fact bc I as well enjoyed setting up load outs. Revert the ui
100% agree. I was going crazy thinking I was too stupid to figure out how to fix it. Even crazier to think they changed it for this.
I like how the new locker UI looks but how they made emotes and skins in a diff preset that's so dumb and even wraps to like WHY?? but ig for now i'm just not going to make presets anymore😭 takes WAY longer then it needs to now.
Yeah unfortunately I'm not going to do it either
I really think that they wants us to spend more time on the game. So they made everything takes longer to do, more and more clicks
Imagine 😂😂
Hope Epic Games sees this!
i hate that like every emote has the same background and not the purple / blue / green depending on rarity:(
Agreed
Couldn't agree more!! I spent quite some time customizing my loadouts, and switching was easy, 3-4 clicks and you were done. Now it's been messed up, I have to scroll through 4 different sections just to match up everything again. I used to switch often, now I don't want to do it anymore as often 'cause it's such a waste of time.
Regarding my locker, I just called the loadouts as the character name followed by a number, for example, Evie 1, Evie 2, Relik 1, Rian 1, Relik 2, Evie 3 and so on. It's kind of disorganized but I didn't mind, as I could just switch everything on the fly.
Now I have to go to the Character column, find Evie 1 and select it, go back, then go to Emotes, find Evie 1, then go to Wraps, find Evie 1, then go to Lobby, and find Evie 1 again.... seriously, what were they thinking? And mind you, Evie 1 is literally my first loadout, and I'm still annoyed. Imagine my other characters that are way below..., yeah it's even more of a time waste. And I also play on keyboard and mouse.... yeah the whole thing is annoying.
This is so inefficient, really. Literally all they had to do was increasing the loadout space beyond 100, or maybe just increase the emote slots from 6 to 8. We would be happy with just that. But no, they had to do this non-sense instead...
Yeah I am baffled at the menus.. I use controller and I just stopped trying to figure it out. Even if they don't change it, I would at least like to hear what they thought they were accomplishing lol... I mean it seems like a troll job. I would have fired who was ever over this portion of the design and development. It about 2-3x as clunky on controller.
Also, one thing I don't like about the new UI is not seinh the skin rarity. Im really dissapointed with that.
I get that they wanted to make the ui minimalistic design, but they failed miserably
I can understand the criticism of this they took out the best part of the locker but seeing how they changed it they may never change it back
I don't think it is a restriction as you describe it, it is more of an inconvenience to change every single detail in your locker if I want to change it in different matches. I Think Epic needs to revert this change tbh, since the locker system from previous chapter was fine for the most part imo.
Although I do not like the Netflix style discover page, I can still deal with it. But the new locker UI is absolutely horrible.
I can deal with ANYTHING besides this 😂😂
you’re one of the very few creators that TRULY care about this game and are extremely wise. Been enjoying your content since chapter 3. So damn respectable
That means so much to me. Thanks for being here so long!
i feel ya. I hardly change skin now cuz its SO cumbersome changing everything to match the theme
Same here, as the experience got bad, i dont want to buy cosmetics to match with other things, because i dont want to change things every time.... thats bad...
It's crazy that someone got paid to do this, like someone had one job that anyone could have done and they just completely ruined it. Also when you look at your presets in the list it doesn't show them with their backbling for some reason, and if you have two variations of the same skin saved as two different presents it will just show them both the same, even if they have different styles selected. So you have to select the skin to see which one it is. AND you can't look at different backblings in your locker anymore without it automatically selecting it on your character, because they got rid of the confirm button. Searching is worse. No shuffle. Separated presets for wraps and emotes... They ruined it in like every possible way they could haha it's unbelievable.
Some poeple like to just change their skin preset without changing their entire emote loadout, wich is why I think you should be able to link the presets together if you wanted to. Also I don't like how you cant preview styles/rotate the skin without equipping it. And not being able to see the rarity on the icon is annyoing when picking emotes and things like that. Plus, I really want more than 100 presets for things, concidering there are like 1500 skins. We also need folders for presets so that I can for example group my christmas stuff, and halloween stuff together.
You can favorite emotes?
Oh right I understand now, they separated the presets, ok I didnt think the locker was that bad before but now this has to be changed. No hate tho
I HATE the new locker system. It’s SO terrible😑
Yep, I pretty much gonna cancel the club and stop buying skins unless they give shuffle presets back, I had 95 presets (they should also increase that), what's the point, can't force my friends to go back to lobby each time and I now feel like it's a waste having so many skins if it's such a chore to be able to see them.
Exactly. It takes so much more effort now. I have to now switch between 3 different presets and I think a good chunk of them got lost and I usually only change one or two emotes between presets so the icons for those all look the same. Why couldn't they just give us more locker presets instead of technically giving us 4x but with a ton of caveats? They better revert this ASAP!
I thought I was the only one who lost a preset. I had myself thinking I just happened to delete it
facts i spent HOURS on pre-sets and now its all GONE so i cant shuffle through all my different sets with custom emotes, gun skins and loading screens
It's sad 😭
This has been my main problem this chapter, I had so many cool presets that I could put on shuffle. Now it doesn't matter, because the emotes, loading screen, and wraps don't even work. I don't even know where you can shuffle to be honest. Can you still shuffle presets?
Absolutely agree with everything said! I hadn’t played FortNite in awhile and came back to all my presets missing emotes and unable to shuffle which was my favourite feature! Side note, in career history it looks like it’s been cleared?? I can’t see any of my previous achievements from past chapters 😢
I have every preset filled and lobby music and loading screens and everything flow with that skin, I take my time with presets, it's super annoying.
Same here
I really really hope Epic will revert it back
Same as someone who has over 1200 skins I completely hate the new locker UI
The ui is horrible, my controller is messed up, so when I'm in the lobby I try to emote and it throws me down in the creative menu, so annoying, why even have it down there when there's a whole tab to the left of the lobby for it too? Annoying as hell
Agreed. I can hardly care about skins anymore because of this new locker.
Same
PLEASE FIX THE LOCKER UPDATE EPIC THIS ONE IS AWFUL!!!!
On controller my hands hurt less from playing than changing my locker around. I used the same 6 emotes at the top now but i had to rearrange all my presets. They actually added more and i love that but the setup is all gone and if they revert it ill have to reorganize it all. So i hope they add a shuffle n back to top
I totally thought I was missing something. Now I know they messed it up with update this sucks hope it changes because this is the only update messes with my experience
We can hope with tomorrow's update 🙏
Oh damn now I understand the backlash. That's really dumb
Totally agreed. Not only is the preset system terrible, but the selection system sucks! Like if you're in the music section, just hovering over an icon changes the music that's playing, making it jolting just to use the UI!
Now, I don't mind having saved emote presets, for instance, as an _additional_ thing, but we NEED to have the whole entire presets that we've had throughout the entire time _before_ Chapter 5!
Honestly I wouldn't mind additions either! But you're right, we need to have presets how they were as an option.
With the new ui I didn't even realize I had my skin on I kept clicking the skin
Nah icl it was hella annoying to pick a preset and have it change your emotes and lobby music
my solution sadly is to find a new game to be as invested in as i am in this shit fuck, i cannot believe they pulled this stunt why tf whyyyy i literally play for the presets an the money ive spent wow i feel like i an many others just got royally fucked prison style honestly epic has some audacity w this they really have some fuckin AUDACITY
The locker changes have taken so much enjoyment from the game! I have repeatedly been checking in to see what Epics response is to the gaming community. I know this is not necessarily a quick fix, but some response to validate our feelings, regarding this issue, would go a long way. Loadouts take allot of time to put together, and make time gaming with our friends so much meaningful. For people who have invested their hard earned money into the item shop, in order to polish and shine these loadouts, is especially a hurtful move.
I am like that... I know folks I play with are like just ready up.. no I need to have my characters match and I also wish they'd add the rarity back too...
LOL yes I get that exactly
The new Ui locker is so bad. That I can't even change Harlowe's shoes anymore. It in too one style.
My main skin in save the World is anime Midas. My main skin in battle Royale is snap. But went I switch to save the World, I'm wearing the snap skin.
I agreee It’s a dumb idea. It’s so annoying that i have to scroll down 2 rows to get to the skin i want to wear. I’m on ps4
I actually love the fact that emotes are now separate. It's something I always wanted.
Hopefully there can be a balance one day!
The biggest problem I have with the new UI is the wraps because I'll enter a game and my wrap doesn't match so every time I want to equip a different preset I have to do twice as much work for me to do it all over again next time. I actually prefer the way they have emotes now cause I would equip a preset I haven't used in a few seasons and it would have a lot of emotes I wouldn't use and I would have to change like 3 or 4 emotes but now I don't need to but I think it does suck for if you put a lot of effort into the emotes. And then the lobby stuff I'm split about as I would keep the same banner on all presets and now I don't need to try and find one out of like 500 banners but I also use some music packs with specific presets. Overall thought I hope they go back
Honestly I never thought about using the emotes that way. For me personally I won't do it though.
@@Clen- this gave me an idea for a solution to the locker and that is to be able to link other presets to one character preset
BRING BACK OLD LOCKER I DONT WANT BUY SKIINS ANYMORE:(
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gotta love how I can’t tell the rarity of skins at a glance anymore
this video needs to reach a larger audience, this locker change is even worse with the new game modes. You can't change anything about your rocket racing loadout if you have the festival selected, and vice versa. Its so frustrating to have had all these presets and now they've become absolutely redundant.
We think the same way bro... I absolutely LOVE to make presets. Having my own collection with presets. They did wrong every aspect of this new chapter. I don t like it at all. I hope they will fix this soon.
Totally agree. I don’t change skins between games like I used to which will equal me not wanting for more skins…

As of today they still havent reverted the locker back to what it was before,but what also hurts is that certain characters(Marvel,DC,Gaming Legends,etc)dont even have their series respective background on their icons.Now its just the same blue background for every skin.
April 9th 2024 Edit:They MADE THIS WORSE:they REMOVED the rarities
Whoever thought this was a good idea needs to be fired
i like it only best now when i sort by season the rarity bar doesn't send my ocd haywire
Completely agree with you on this. I may not have that many skins but I made presets for all the skins I really like. Was excited for Chapter 5 because both the battlepass and gameplay are amazing only to realise that I shouldn't even bother to make any presets for the skins because the locker is all messed up. I'm waiting for it to fix now.
Same here with making a ton of custom presets, the new locker UI genuinely just makes me not want to play it or get the new stuff either. I really hope something can be done with this, if they reverted it and stopped there, honestly would be perfect
I definitely won't stop playing, but I have zero interest in buying new things now.
I had to re make all of my presets, not a pleasant experience.
I like how the emotes are different presets but having the wraps in a different breeze that is the stupidest thing like just pick your app
