15 Low-Budget Films That Became Cult Classics
10. Thanos building glitch
Normally, Thanos wasn’t designed to have the ability to build and equip weapons, as his strength lay in his unique powers and brute force. This glitch gave players an unfair advantage in the special mode, breaking the balance and turning Thanos into a nearly unstoppable force. | © Epic Games
9. Instant revive glitch
This glitch allowed Fortnite players to instantly revive teammates at reboot vans by using the Airbending mythic in a specific way. The Airbending mythic has also been used in other creative exploits, including silent movement and a boosted field of view. | © Epic Games
8. Floating glitch
In Fortnite, using a launchpad with a pyramid on top caused your character to float a few inches above the ground instead of landing. While this glitch didn’t offer any real in-game advantages, it was a lot of fun to use for trolling opponents. | © Epic Games
7. Rocket riding
Rocket riding became such a beloved glitch in Fortnite that Epic Games eventually embraced it and made it a feature. Players discovered they could use rockets not just for dealing heavy damage and causing explosions, but also as a means of transportation, leading to countless hilarious clips shared across social media. | © Epic Games
6. Floating head
The floating head glitch persisted in Fortnite for several seasons and was caused by issues with rendering character models and certain interactions with the game environment. It made the character model disappear, leaving only a floating head, which gave players an unusual advantage in visibility. | © Epic Games
5. Sniper Shotgun
The Pump Shotgun was designed for high damage at close range, but a bug caused it to function like a heavy sniper, dealing lethal damage from any distance. This glitch, caused by errors in the distance and shot detection algorithms, understandably left players extremely frustrated at the time. | © Epic Games
4. Swingset glitch
In Fortnite's early days, players could interact with swings, but attempting to swing would launch them across the map. The anti-cheat system mistook this for hacking, resulting in over 50,000 players being banned. | © Epic Games
3. Leprechaun glitch
The bug was first spotted by popular Fortnite streamer Ninja during a match. He encountered a player using a St. Patrick’s Day skin that appeared unusually small. Though surprised, Ninja still managed to take the opponent out. | © Epic Games
2. Falling under map
Falling under map glitch has appeared occasionally in different seasons and locations, but the Fatal Fields bug has drawn the most attention. It allowed players to move beneath the map, making them invisible and invincible to others while still being able to freely eliminate opponents. | © Epic Games
1. Tfue destruction glitch
The destruction glitch found by Tfue allowed Fortnite players to demolish entire buildings in a few seconds, and to be more precise, even locations like Tilted Towers. You have to place a certain combination of your buildings near the house and then destroy them, triggering a chain reaction that obliterates everything in its path. | © Epic Games
