These are the unofficial Fortnite 11.10 Patch Notes! Epic hasn't been posting update notes lately, so we're going to compile what is known to be added in the patch. We have some bug fix information, and will be posting whatever else has been added to the game. We will replace these with the official patch notes if they are posted.
This should be a pretty big patch, so expect some pretty good cosmetic leaks, as well as some interesting additions to the game. The Halloween update is going to be apart of it, so we're expecting a new LTM along with some spooky new additions to the map.
Patch Release Date & Time
The patch is expected to go live on October 28th, 2019 at 4am ET (0800 UTC) according to the Fortnite Status Twitter.

Fortnite 11.10 Patch Bug Fixes
Here are the expected bug fixes for the 11.10 patch. These were taken from the Trello that display all of the stuff that Epic is working on in terms of bugs.
General
- Replay mode is currently bugged. We anticipate a fix in our 11.10 build releasing next week. We apologize for this inconvenience.
Battle Royale
- Mission Challenges show they grant 14,000 XP each but actually grant 52,000 XP.
- Players may be unable to utilize the Friends search feature with a controller.
- Players with “Auto Pick Up Weapon” enabled can automatically pick up the Bandage Bazooka even if only one inventory slot is available. This will cause an item to be dropped from the inventory to make room for the Bandage Bazooka.
- When pickaxing player-built structures, there is a visual pop-up that indicates you receive materials. This is unintended and visual only; material count does not actually increase.
- Editing a style in the Locker after making an Item Shop purchase may cause controller controls to lock.
- DBNO (Down But Not Out) teammates cannot be revived or picked up if they’re in contact with corn stalks.
- Explosive objects, like gas cans and propane tanks, do not trigger a Visualized Sound Effect indicator when exploding.
- Despite meeting the requirements for the Gunk Ops Achievement, players may not receive credit for it.
