MasterSlowPoke posted:Just had a match where I killed 12 people, ended up at #2 with the #1 left on 3HP. I didn't even land anywhere crazy, just the house where the Flush Factory map. No idea how I ended up killing 1/8th the map. Even found a clay pigeon shooter and played with that for a while. I hadn't ever gotten a solo win, but a couple of days ago I ended up getting to the last few and in a solid, defensible position. Was using the rocket launcher well (I haven't had the chance to practice with it much), and finally there was 2 others left. While chasing down one he was killed by the other guy and I launched a rocket at the sole survivor but I was too close and ended up killing myself. The winner had 4hp left after my rocket. I've still never won a single game.

Of all the locations to change the kill count from 3 to 5, why did it have to be Haunted Hills?

Personally I go "close range" "long range" "health/shield" "explosive" "explosive". I gotta start recording games, the replay options are pretty drat cool.

Knocked a gun with a shotgun and then got knocked in turn by some other dude. The guy that knocked me must have needed the explosive eliminations so he stuck me. I was right beside the person I knocked and when the sticky went off killing me I somehow got credit for the explosive kill on the guy I knocked with the shotgun I’m not complaining it was just really weird

Who are these streamer (xxx) dudes I keep seeing in BR? Are they robots? Robot steamers? Are they just filling in the ranks to get 100 person matches right now?

I think this is when people turn on streamer mode to prevent stream sniping.

Yeah it’s just so you don’t exactly know which streamer it is. Since you don’t see names till you kill someone, it keeps people from acting up

For those who didn’t watch the tourney tonight but considering watching tomorrow: either watch a specific streamer or, if you choose to watch the Fortnite twitch channel, mute the announcers. Courage is great but the other guy, Zeke, is insufferable and knows nothing about fortnite.

Eh, stealth is usually my thing anyway, but top 6 is just too much when on average the rest of my squad is made up of worthless randos while everyone else are running hyper-coordinated kill teams. Moot point now though, the streak finally broke.

Yeah, I couldn't believe they left that in. But on the other hand when a stream sniper kills ninja, all the 100K+ people watching him see is BlahBlah[123] killed Ninja rather than get their gamertag all the attention, so I guess it still does something?

Super Rad posted:Yeah, I couldn't believe they left that in. Yeah, it doesn't give them the satisfaction to show up on stream. Which is probably enough to reduce stream snipers by quite a bit, but obviously not even close enough. It's weird that streamers just don't block it out themselves honestly, I wouldn't wait for Epic to handle that. At least then people would only be able to see if they're in your game if you show up in the kill feed.

It's usually also pretty obvious when a streamer is in your game because there is a literal orgy of players converging on them in the pre-game lobby. Back in the day in H1Z1 I actually tried to snipe Ninja a couple times and getting into his lobby was SUPER easy - Ninja just kept dying before me (which of course is 100% confirmation I was the better player).

Yeah but that's also because everyone can instantly see the Match ID due to the Twitch latency being 1-2 seconds these days. Then again I suppose most streamer skins aren't that easy to get so maybe they just run to 1 of the 2 gingerbread players. Also: Fortnite has basically an instant queue, not sure how H1Z1 was back in the day but those lobbies take 3 minutes to fill up these days.

If I saw people land or it's a hot zone drink it immediately, if not you can hold off until your inventory is full.

Top 6 in squads is just the same as solo, do a no fill and hide in a tree in the first circle and walk away, guaranteed challenge.
