Seriously though, Ninja was taking about how he was literally having an out of body experience; "It's like I'm watching myself play." I've done a few gaming marathons and lans in my time and the level of energy these guys are running at is miles beyond Red Bull.

A friend mentioned that the seasonal tokens were being rolled over to next season. Is that correct? The Shamrock Reclaimer seems kinda neat, but I'd bank my coin if there's a summer event on the horizon.

Shamrock reclaimer looks like a Southie pimp with no self awareness and it rules.

He's kinda mediocre though. He really needs an extra charge after 45-50 kills I think.

They announce when they remove gold, so I'd keep an eye on their social media stiemshield.one for that. Generally though, I believe they reset gold with every big event. But they change their mind almost daily so it's best to just keep up to date with their latest ramblings.

I don't understand why people want no build modes, this game's gimmick is building, it's a core part of the game.

Probably because they enjoy the gunplay, destructable environments and traps or the BR genre and there aren't many other games in the genre that are as fun and high population right now.

PS4 players, does anyone have the issue of not being able to switch weapons until you switch to build mode and back again? Its pretty annoying and has gotten me killed a few times.

You follow the path
fitting into an infinite pattern.

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment
before the closure
when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.


This is uhhh some sort of Vending Machine map. I think.

I didn't think I'd ever get the challenge for the chest, ammo box and supply crate but I got extremely lucky last night. Dropped on Pleasant Park, found one guy dancing by himself in a house and shotgunned him, opened a ton of chests and an ammo box then I heard the supply drop. Looked all around and found it landing maybe 30m behind me. I almost never see them land so neatly next to me. It was basically at the edge of the zone too.
The only other time I saw one last night I was just running up to it and hadn't even had a chance to put up some walls before a guy jumped out with a shotgun and killed me.

Yep. It is indeed annoying and has also gotten me killed a number of times. It only seems to happen if I'm panicking and switching through items rapidly, so I think it's avoidable, but it's a bummer.

Did I misread it and think you had to do it multiple times? Cause I had it completed like, incredibly quickly this morning. Do the llamas count for multiple drops? Cause that was the only supply drop I found, and afterwards I had completed the challenge.

Also, wtf, llamas?

Yea I’ve gotten stuck in build mode a few times on ps4. Luckily only died from it once so far.

Is there a way to change the order of build stuff? I’d rather have wall next to ramp :/

Lame. It only usually happens once a match, but as you said it's usually during clutch moments which sucks.

Also I dont think the discord is really used? My PSN is rayst191 if anyone wants to play

Next patch supposed to allow changing order on console. Hope they also fix the PC bug where switching weapons can cause them to get stuck on the map and not fire.

So I've started doing this recently and decided to try out Squads as I have challanges there, every single auto fill squad nobody even tries to work together, I've had people get mad at me for trying to stick near them. I don't understand why people even join squad if they don't want to work together does the mode offer something extra that would drive someone who obviously wants to play solo?

On ps4 make a party before you start up fortnite.
Then you don't have to listen to random children argue with their moms.
Or the crying of neglected infants as manchildren play.

The game matchmakes itself - you kill everyone worse than you and then die to someone better than you.
