"Fortnite Battle Royale" players got a new season of the game on February 20 and they are still discovering the new things that it has brought. Besides the new Battle Pass, several map changes and gameplay adjustments, the new season has also brought a few new bugs, unfortunately. While some of these bugs do not ruin the gameplay, a couple of them have affected millions of players, such as the editing bug or aim assist inconsistency.
The good news is that Epic Games, the "Fortnite Battle Royale" developer, recently released a patch which fixes some of the biggest issues with the game. The developer has fixed the issue with editing and sprinting, as well as aim assist problems. The latest "Fortnite" patch was released on all platforms on Tuesday, February 25, around 9 AM Eastern Time.

The v12.00 patch which brought Chapter 2, Season 2 was big and it has added a lot of new content. Data miners have also found some other interesting things that the developer has added to the game data, and some of them may be released in the upcoming update.
However, controller players have complained about aim assist consistency, which has been one of the biggest issues that came with the new season. In addition to it, editing was interferring with sprinting when the season just came out, which is another problem that was solved with the latest patch.
When the season was just released, many controller players complained about inconsistency of aim assist, and some of them even claimed that it is possible to aim through walls. Fortunately, a lot of players have reported the issue, so Epic Games was able to figure out what's wrong with it and release a fix for it.
