holy crap, won the first match you get dropped into with 5 kills. It took me until the last week last season to get my first win.

Funny how they don't touch on it in videos.

I mean, why would they? It's the main hook of the game for crying out loud, of course there will still be building.

I wonder how many people will ask if Respawn removed character abilities from Apex when this new Halloween patch launches. Zero is my guess.

Just got 2nd place on the first game. Kinnda worrying that it's bots because I haven't played in almost a year and that was on console. Blew my self up with a rocket launcher because my cat was jumping up on my desk.

Never played Fortnite but that blue goopy looking ghost man has me interested. Is he the main dude?

No, I mean it would just be nice to have an option to play it without the building. It's funny how they've made a conscious decision NOT to include the building aspect in any of the content they have released for this launch. The videos made it look like they'd really worked on the actual shooting and that building isn't evena focus at all.

Not saying they should completely drop it, I was excited to actually try it but I'm not interested in the building side.

Felt like a mix of both, unless bots know how to do 90s then that's terrifying. The last guy almost killed me, I had to panic and close him in a trap box.
Oh buddy you wnated it and you got it. Congrats.
Thanks

Not sure it if was new but spectating and queuing for the next match is really good.

So does this mean people have earn/buy all their gear again

Also I'm guess despite all this, the game is still technically in early access and not officially released?

Man Fortnite honestly seems like such a fun experience and something most people will look back at very fondly as a fun game/multiplayer experience.

Shame I just can't get into it because of the terrible cartoon aesthetics and the building gameplay. Feel like I'm missing out on the game that will define the late 2010's but whatever.

Water physics are only available when you enable highest settings. Don't play in lower if you have capable PCs.

Is it bots in the first drop because there's no way in hell I should be winning, I couldn't even remember how to build.

These trailers always look great and make me want to play it.

Then I remember that the gameplay won't be anything like it and will actually just be a bunch of people building ramps over each other's heads and shotgunning one another.

Wait, I though the concept of battle royale is one player left standing, why is there 4 player squad in the trailer? Is that a thing for a while now?

I am going through Twitch watching VODs of people reaction to the first instant drop - and then the instant panic about keybinds

It is hilarious

Is it me or does the PS4 version looks worse than before. Everything but your close surroundings looks super flat.

Building feels really fiddly on consoles. Will I eventually get used to it, or just ignore it?

Huh, watching a live stream now on PS4, it seems nclose environments get the lowest LOD as if you were watching them from the battle bus. this is weird yeah. It seems to be a bug. I hope it will be fixed soon.




I think he means PS4, watching a PS4 stream too. Dunno about PS4 Pro.

So the Save the World mode is essentially dead right? I never hear about them updating that.

do you just get whatever random character I gives or can you pick which character you want? never played before.

I think you mean default characters for non battle pass owners right? Well defaults are random so players won't choose the same default each time and the scene won't be filled the same character each time.

I assume it's Jonesy because the cutscene transitioned from him jumping out the bus into gameplay of him falling.
