A player from the prestigious Faze Clan team, Nate Hill is a respected member of the Fortnite community. He is also the player who suffered two weeks of ban because his teammate had told him the position of an opposing player during a skirmish by watching the official stream. Yesterday he took Epic Games to task, accusing the publisher of double standards.
Xxif is one of the American players who qualified in week 3 for the World Cup Grand Final in New York. Since then, accusations have been leaping in the community, he has reportedly arranged with several of his friends to have them killed each time they were in the same game, so that Xxif can easily accumulate points.
In his thread on twitter, Nate Hill says that Epic has all the necessary evidence but has not yet said anything about the Xxif case. He immediately drew a parallel with his own situation in which he was immediately sanctioned when he was not responsible for the violation perpetrated by his teammate regretting that Epic was faster to sanction innocent players than guilty players.
Yet Epic replied, on the reddit thread relating Nate Hill's complaint, Loomin, an Epic employee, announced that Epic was taking the situation very seriously, that a full investigation is underway and that the results of this investigation are about to be made public.
The final word of the story should therefore come from an official Epic Games press release that should be published between today and tomorrow.
