Streamer FaZe Agony shared a short video of it on Twitter, which got passed around on social media as other fans noticed the change. Calamity's breasts don't budge during the default boogie dance; this one emote appears to be the only outlier.

An Epic Games spokesperson for Epic Games called the new breast physics were a mistake. "This is unintended, embarrassing, and it was careless for us to let this ship," they said. "We are working now to fix this as soon as possible."

When asked how something this seemingly elaborate gets unintentionally programmed into a massive update for the most popular game in the world, the spokesperson did not elaborate further.
Jiggle me to death if old.

This is like the tamest boob jiggling I've ever seen, but they probably want to get ahead of any potential negative story. Still, the self flagellation is a bit much.

Given how popular the game is with children and how pearl-clutching western society still is about sexuality, they probably would have seen an outrage about it.

I thought this was going to be Team Ninja physics or something. Looks okay? It's actually almost accurate if she wasn't wearing a bra.

Is it better to have jiggling boobs or boobs that are just bolted on and locked into place??

I guess the cartoon aesthetic lends itself to the stationary boobs.

Please patch out these jiggle physics so that my child can get back to murdering their friends with assault rifles and chugging unknown substances to stay alive.

Dick physics are the true next gen graphical advancement we need.

"Mount Your Friends" is truly ahead of its time.

I mean good on them for trying to fight against over sexualization I guess?

Honestly the way they're beating themselves over it is just as embarrassing than if they were to defend it. Just say whoops something screwed up and made this goofy side effect happen and we'll patch it. There you can address it and not act like over dramatic twats over accidentally having boob physics.

I mean it looks plausible when she's prancing about.... Probably wouldn't have the same amount of movement after she stops moving, but yes make them static objects for the kids.

The way they're beating themselves up about it is ridiculous. It's actually somewhat realistic and doesn't seem like it was put in there for shock value.

I really don't think it would have been a problem if they kept it in.

It looks kinda broken in a way that doesn't seem like it was intentionally put in. But maybe I'm wrong.

God forbid a breast from bouncing. Now make them look like bags of sand and add a new headshot animation to compensate. Muricaaaaaa!

For what it's worth, as fucking dumb of an oversight as that is, I'd say it's a relatively realistic boob jiggle for a woman not wearing a bra. It's atleast not DOA bad or anything.

That said... yeah, that's pretty woefully unnecessary and should probably get patched out

Almost as breasts obey laws of physics and do jiggle if you bounce... almost.

Unless her boobs are in a metal bra, i don't see how they wouldn't bounce a little when she's performing that emote.

Fortnite is the biggest game ever made, they don't want to rock the boat at all, guys.

Fortnite is a very corporate game... And that's fine.

This.

There's nothing wrong with this jiggle. But it's their game I guess. If the don't want jiggle, no jiggle.

The pedant in me thinks this was probably a publicity stunt. Maybe.

I don't have much of a problem with boob physics in general (so long as they're not flapping in the wind), and I don't think this is something they have to apologize for, but it would be weird if they added them in at this late date. I wouldn't have complaints about it if they did, would just think it's strange to go out of their way to add in a game that's over a year old. Would prefer better hair physics to be honest.

I will never understand how anyone can be against boobs in a game where you're also killing shit.
