My friend needed to outlive opponents in squads so we did a duo no fill squad match on pc last night. Ended up winning back to back squad matches. Guess I do really like zombie mode.

Got the closest I've ever come to a solo victory royale, and I whiffed it cause I was too busy avoiding the zombies to reload my drat guns Well, you live and you learn... but you also hate yourself and will now obsessively mag-check till the end of time, zombies be damned!

The sad part about surviving till the end is the first 50 or so times your body will kick in to full adrenaline mode and then you'll inevitably accidentally RPG yourself or decide it's a good idea to go full AR bloom battle without building or peeking anything. Zombies don't help. One day the pressure disappears and then you just go to the circle early and RPG and AR tap shot your enemy as they panic run away from the storm, or calmly build a wall to make the RPG guy blow himself up. It all comes full circle.

Mongoose posted:you'll inevitably accidentally RPG yourself I really dislike how explosive damage in this game doesn't taper off based on distance. I haven't played an FPS in fifteen years and it's really, really, really hard to untrain "oh I can shoot the rocket right there and hurt them and not hurt me too much" because that gets me dead really, really fast. Some of my 4th grader's classmates play. We friended the first of them the other day. He kicked my butt. I'm not sure if I'm OK with this or not.

I keep getting killed solely by quad launchers or sniper rifles in the new game mode to the point that it doesn't surprise me anymore. If you don't sit yourself in a brick 1x1 before popping a shield you're really asking for it.

I've had two moments where I've picked up the guided missile, mistakenly thought it was the quad launcher, and just charged a player with completely inadequate weapons cause I thought I could poop rockets out on them. You can guess how those engagements ended up!

Zombies don't help. Haha, too true! After they introduced 50v50 I dropped off playing solo haaaaard, I'm just now getting back into it. The 3 games I played last night all getting in the top 8 with 2 kills minimum really gave me a confidence boost, though, haha. Related: when do the Fortnitemares challenges end? I only have 2 left to get the ghost train glider; got the contrail and I could not care less about the little emote things.

Yeah. Just do all the weekly challenges and keep up with daily ones. And you don't have to get all the xp for the skins before the season ends anymore. I'm still trying to unlock the last tier of Ragnarok.

Fortnite's twitter account is saying the Fortnitemares in Battle Royale will end on Sunday with a special event at 1pm EST/6 UTC. If you want the glider or other poo poo better do the challenges before then. You're ahead if you've waited, the 4th set of challenges are easy and you can do multiple sets of challenges just by fighting the cube monsters and being around the corrupted areas.

Ghost Train is like ultra loud and vision blocking huge, I super recommend not using it.Triggs posted:I keep getting killed solely by quad launchers or sniper rifles in the new game mode to the point that it doesn't surprise me anymore. If you don't sit yourself in a brick 1x1 before popping a shield you're really asking for it. I've actually been trying to break my longest snipe range in it (271m). It's pretty easy to hit/find stuff in the 250m range but I think I've only hit one 260+ so far.

Really not happy they went through with glider redeploy. This seriously removes practically any downside at all to having the highground in any stage of the game.

I like the glider redeploy. I rarely manage to get into a build battle though. I usually get taken out pretty quick even if I do. Although I have "won" several build battles. The extra mobility is very welcome. I do question the reasoning behind removing the bounce pads now. It would be great to see those get added back in since it's not a built in advantage for one player in a build fight anymore. So many neat mobility options that are in the game now that didn't exist when I started playing earlier this year.

They need to make it so you can't fly if your building is crumbling though. It sucks to destroy some dudes sky tower and watch him start falling then glide away.

I agree, shooting down someone’s 2,000 foot high ramp is one of the best things in the game. If you’re gonna build a giant ramp, you better be prepared to die falling off it.

They really ought to just standardize glider sounds for everything. I don't see why I would ever switch from the almost silent umbrella to something that's announcing my position as I'm gliding behind the enemy.

Well I just won a Squad match solo. Only played it because I needed to finish top 6 and outlive opponents. And to finish off the last of the Fortnitemare challenges.... Pretty drat happy right now.

I do think Fortnite really maximizes the top 10 adrenaline with its 100-in-1-out battle royal format, low time to kill with almost every weapon and the huge skill gap that the sandbox style (and building) creates. It definitely hasn't hurt the game's success. e: I can remember pretty vividly when I first got the game and played a marathon weekend of it, when I laid in bed Sunday night I couldn't stop reliving my fights (mostly deaths) whenever I closed my eyes. I slept about 1 hour that night. Mongoose fucked around with this message at 08:05 on Nov 1, 2018 |

Double posting for Patch Notes - https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/en-US/patch-notes/v6-21 - Balloons added, hop into playground and test them - Vaulted semi-auto sniper, dual pistols, guided missile (again) - Explodes do 25% damage through walls and the environment (got drat like they really needed the buff) - lots of audio balancing for gliders and monsters Also seems like a lot of save the world changes, but I don't really know about that.

That's 20 dmg per quad launcher hit and like 35 per regular rocket, means you actually have to move or fight the person slinging rockets not just building to defend yourself in a 1x1 box. Makes clingers a much bigger problem too as they'll go off in quick succession for a lot of damage if the defender doesn't move.

drat, they vaulted the double pistols? I really enjoy those  I won't miss the semi-auto sniper; being able to unload sniper shots at someone is fun but I prefer the bolt action.Thanks for whoever answered when Fortnitemares ends! Plenty of time to get my haunted choo choo  I really hope they keep the zombies in an LTM or something similar, they're fun as gently caress she, like someone said earlier, completely change the endgame.
