People are sweaaaaatyI literally have died twice before landing in this Ranked Cup
It's not even fun
Boars have red mushroom nests.To tame an animal you have 4 methods: throw a food it can eat and tame it, or jump on it directly or tame it from behind, but dinos have extra way by finding nests with 3 eggs you htach one and you tame a dino. STW now has nests where you find 3 wolf skulls and when you load the skull it spawns a wolf tamed. I wonder if BR will do this next. Now boars are left without nests.
Yeah, TTK/weapon damage in general, and the....prevalence of said quick-kill weapons, especially early game when you're scrambling and someone has the cerberus or auto-shotty, are definitely times I've just turned the game off in frustration after it happening a few times.
Especially when there's such huge disparity between the early-kill potential of something like the cerberus shotty or ares rifle versus a pump action or either of the current pistols (unless you headshot with the handcannon)
A non-bolt action sniper, even with a 'pause' in firing, is still absolutely wild to me - it also doesn't seem like the 'hotfix' for making it more rare actually has done anything, because I still see it quite often.
edit: It also doesn't help that the huntress (which in theory could counter the sniper), has some insanely noticeable bullet travel time/lag, to where I can see the bullet arcing behind where someone just was during zoomed-in view, lol.
The auto shotgun has been a problem for a while, but the ttk is unusually low. Not been thrilled with it since a lot of confrontations feel like cod where it's determined by who spotted the other first.As someone who got into Fortnite in the middle of the prior Season, I have no barometer for how the TTK was in prior seasons of the Battle Royale. I'm glad though, that I'm not the only one who has issues with how broken the Frenzy feels. Was the TTK always as fast as this, or even close to this? I've personally found my niche with the Thunder Burst SMG and the Nemesis AR as the two weapons I try to have on me by the endgame of a match.
Dealing with shotguns has always been a huge pain in the ass; doesn't help that latency can feel especially fucky in close quarters fights. Any time I've won, it's basically been with mid-to-long range weapons followed by closing in the gap with shockwave grenades once people are low enough on health.As someone who got into Fortnite in the middle of the prior Season, I have no barometer for how the TTK was in prior seasons of the Battle Royale.

The rarity thing just feels like a way to charge more for what used to be cheaper skinsThey're removing cosmetic rarities https://www.fortnite.com/news/new-and-upcoming-fortnite-shop-and-locker-changes?lang=en-US
No more people complaining X is only Y rarity or stuff, now the Ares ones make sense considering they were about to remove it, haha. Every normal skins has the "rare" blue background now.
Also starting Season 3 they'll directly put in the shop when an item will be out of it.
Looks like they fixed Ares cape being way too high on other skins, as well.
Skins got really kind of cheap there for a bit. They started really high at 2k for a very basic skin, but then they had 2 skin licensed bundles for like 2k for a few years.The rarity thing just feels like a way to charge more for what used to be cheaper skins
While "fixing" the cape on other skins, on Ares it looks worse now.Something weird's going on with Ares's cape.
This is fortnite.gg picture :
This is what I see on PC, first image is while selecting the Blackbling, second one is the skin itself while Ares is doing its idle stance :
3 different positions, how'd that work lmao, you could say his idle stance he stand tall so the cape appear lower (and why it looks so high on other skins perhaps?)
I'll check on Switch and PS5 in a bit.
Edit : same is happening on both, I guess that wouldn't be an issue if the cape connected properly on the skin like it does with both Shredder with their own.
Cant believe Rocket Racing doesnt give exp for ranking up now. Fuckin insane.
Epic must be high on their own supply to think half of the player base wasnt playing the mode for the ridiculous exp it gave.
It's just another tactic to keep people playing. They change the Weekly exp missions in BrRZero build as well . Right now, completeling all weekly missions doesnt even give you an entire level worth of exp.What benefit even is there for playing Rocket Racing now if there's no more EXP in it? Like the mode is already bleeding out players-wise in general, are they just hoping this will kill it for real so they don't have to support it anymore?
yes, from the two new I played, they were hazard free, but they felt too streamlined so I'm sure they'll add harder versions of both of these tracks.Did they finally add courses that aren't just lava bomb spam on a track that looks like it was made in the Hot Wheels Stunt Track Driver track editor?

That, plus removing AFK strats, plus forcing you to get to lvl 144 to get all V-bucks. It's just the GAAS model on overdrive. They want you to just play Fortnite and nothing else.
What surprises me is that this strats might work on BR, because people will play that game, regardless of exp, but Rocket Racing was already the mode that struggled the most with players.
And now, it took them 4 months to come up with a new season, unlike the other modes, and the new season is here with: no free skin, the only exp comes from daily missions, and the rank rewards are a fucking set of wheels in 10 different colors.
Oh, and I think there's 4 new tracks. And from the 3 races I played, the game is still a bug ridden mess.
The mini pass with Aang comes on the 12th
Yeah the 2k for the Midas and Avatar skins is ridiculous. Can't even put it on Nick being greedy since the Ninja turtles had 4 skins + 4 pickaxes for 3400 and now they're charging 3200 for a bundle of 2.
Wish that people would voice their opinions toward to Epic Games; emails or social media. I noticed people complains about it in the discord or message boards but they probably wouldn't read those.Yeah the 2k for the Midas and Avatar skins is ridiculous.

The Avatar skins all look good but I'm only really interested in Aang so I'll pass on the rest of them.
Katara should have had a water-whip pickaxe and Zuko's backbling should have been both swords since that is what the pickaxe is...very weird decisions.
I didn't realize both swords were stored in it, my reasoning was that I thought it wasn't going to be a sheath style back-bling since it only has one sword handle peaking out.
