Such a shame you're wasting our time to play a lucky roulette the moment we publish a map now if we don't have connections for special banner or standout collection tabs or we don't pay for sponsored row which is monopolized by farmers or favoritism for epic pick's
I had so much drive to make horror games but you guys made discovery the biggest gamble ever if you're a small dev, you treat spam/low quality maps the same way as effort projects in the NEW tab, where is the Sophistication Score that were filtering out these maps? @FNCreate
@FNCreate it's been over a week since the release of my new horror map and no NEW tab you guys said maps get 2 weeks of testings I haven't got anything and did updates to it
It might be a pretty rough month for UEFN maps as most players are playing BR now 馃槵 #UEFN #FortniteCreative
@FNCreate is the Thrills and Chills collection gonna remain permanently? I think it's a great addition for horror lovers to find these games easier
@FNCreate my new horror map still hasn't hit the NEW tab, you guys said new maps get in a testing phase for 2 weeks, it's been 6 days and nothing
And my new horror map didn't even hit the new tab at all @FNCreate

Hey @TimSweeneyEpic, @FNCreate
I've been creating Fortnite maps since 2023, and UEFN has genuinely changed my life and my family's life. I'll always be grateful to Epic Games for giving creators like me this opportunity.
With the old Discover system, even small creators had a fair chance to succeed. I understand the changes were meant to improve Discover and reduce spam, but unfortunately, the new system has made it much harder for independent creators to reach players.
Right now, it feels like most exposure comes from Epic's Picks, sponsored rows, or already established creators. For someone without a large following or a marketing budget, it's extremely difficult to compete.
I'm not asking for guaranteed success. I just hope every creator has a fair chance to get their maps discovered again.
I truly appreciate everything Epic has done for us, and I hope you'll consider improving Discover for independent creators.
