But more help is good!Įdited on Tue 28th April, 2020 08:31 by WoomyNNYes Im in the US, and recklessly up past my bedtime in case i don't respond for the next 7 hours, you know why.Įdit: Forgive me, I didn't see until after i posted.

However a day later my daughter decides I want fortnite now so she downloads game, waits almost a day and when it finally downloads she gets straight in BUT under the name I had set up for my son. Finally my son just entered a different display name and he got in and was playing it fine.
