Is Fortnite Reload disabled today (November 13, 2024)?

Fortnite fans have just one question on their minds at present: Is Fortnite Reload disabled today (November 13, 2024)? The answer would be yes. Epic Games has provided an update on X, informing players that the Reload mode has been temporarily disabled. This is what they had to say:

"We're investigating a number of issues related to UEFN and Creative connectivity, which is causing matchmaking issues across a number of experiences and some Creator services to timeout. We are temporarily disabling Reload while we work to solve this, and will provide an update when services have been restored."

According to what we know, issues with UEFN and Creative started to arise as soon as the Fortnite downtime today (November 13, 2024) ended and servers came online

Players began reporting a plethora of issues related to matchmaking. It would seem that Epic Games took note of this and decided to disable Reload. By the looks of things, it was probably for the best given the other major issue at hand.

Another major reason that led to Fortnite Reload being disabled today (November 13, 2024) has to do with the Reload map rotation. This feature went live shortly after the servers came online, but things weren't working as expected.

Rather than seeing the map change every 30 minutes, players are experiencing a blank map when loading into the lobby. Here is a video shared by a user who recorded their gameplay to showcase this glitch:

Considering how this is somewhat of a major technical glitch, it may take a while to investigate and fix. That said, having Fortnite Reload disabled today (November 13, 2024) which is practically mid-season at this point is a bit of an inconvenience. With XP on the line, players will have to shift to other available modes to level up and complete their Chapter 2 Remix Battle Pass.

As of now, all other major modes in-game are online. This includes Battle Royale/Zero Build (Ranked and Unranked). Rocket Racing, Fortnite Festival, and LEGO Fortnite. On a side note, it is rather odd that Save The World is not visible on the main page. Other than this, everything else is working as expected.
