Fortnite 2.50 Update Patch Notes

Battle Royale:

Description
The Challenge “Eliminations without aiming down sights” is not tracking progress properly.

UPDATE:
After further investigating this issue, this occurs when you are eliminated while aiming down sites in Team Rumble. In these cases, the Challenge will not be tracked for the rest of the match.

Apologies for the extra difficulty! We hope to have a fix out in the near future.
