Top issues in Battle Royale have included: replays not saving on PlayStation 4, Fishing Spots disappearing on PC with Effects set to Low, and more. Additionally, Storm’s Whirlwind Blast was recently disabled in the Marvel Standoff LTM, making the character less impressive. Gas Cans were also disabled in the Battle Lab.
We’ll soon find out if these top issues have been fixed with the 2.87 update.
