Fortnite We Hit a Roadblock Fix

If you've managed to escape the Battle Bus and get into the game within about a minute, congratulations! You haven't been banned and can continue reading. Additionally, people who are actually banned cannot even enter a match, so if that's your situation, I'm not sure how this article will help you.

The issue here seems to be that users who receive an error message stating 'You were removed from the match due to your IP, VPN, machine, or cheating' assume they've been banned and are convinced it's a hardware ban. However, upon further investigation, it appears that this is not necessarily the case.

According to various forum posts on Reddit and the Epic Games forums, users who encounter this error message believe their account has been banned or that it's a hardware ban. Unfortunately, reading these threads can lead to confusion and frustration for those trying to troubleshoot the issue.

To help clarify things, I'd like to explain how to solve this problem. If you're experiencing this error message and are unsure if your account is actually banned, there are a few steps you can take to determine what's going on.

Firstly, check your account status within the game menu. If your account has been banned, you should receive an email notification as well as a notice in-game. Additionally, people who are banned cannot even enter a match.

If you're still unsure about your account status or are experiencing this error message for other reasons, I suggest checking the forum on this issue to see if anyone else is having similar problems. You may find that others have already figured out a solution and can offer helpful advice.

It's worth noting that this article is not intended to be a scapegoat solution for those who have received a legitimate ban due to cheating or other malicious behavior in the game. If you're one of those individuals, I'm afraid this post won't be of much help to you.

I hope this helps someone out there!
