It resets the server every once in awhile. It usually gives you a countdown, but there's been plenty of times it hasn't. That's it's way of cleaning up all the random items and crap laying around. Even with the countdown you can lose up to 15 minutes of progress, so I usually just log off and back on when it gets close to force a server save.

I had the same thought. Many of the characters in Avatar are minors but is Fortnite cartoony enough that it doesn’t matter?

I guess there is that Morty skin in a mech suit. How old is supposed to be?

Rick and Morty is already a gory, violent show though where Morty routinely wields guns. I think he's 14?

Avatar just seems like a bad fit for Fortnite, both because of the characters ages and also because Aang is a pacificist, so seeing him running around head shotting people with a sniper rifle will be odd.

Maybe these will be the first skins not useable in Battle Royale? Is that even possible?

Does 'falling down after being shot to be beamed up' count as violence against children for countries' media depiction laws?

Although with the recent Turtle stuff if they do it I hope they do it in the Fortnite style and not just cell shaded the animu skins.

Paramount wants money and epic won't be doing a mini battlepass that requires you to play the BR and put in a skin that can't be used in the BR.

Just wait until spongebob or frozen get added.

officially you "retire" characters back to the lobby. no one actually gets hurt, that's part of the storm resetting and such. part of the "plot" is that the bad guys are figuring out a way to stay and keep their memory after the reset.
i remember after that was established, there was a fortnite-like game where the characters were action figures and the battleground was a child's room who got in a snit because fortnite stole this idea from them

My Hero Academia characters are 15, as are the Jujutsu Kaisen people and Naruto people; Naruto peeps started even younger too, but i haven't watched the show to know what point the Fortnite versions are based on. Eleven is 14 (and also probably the answer to how they map kid bodies to the default skin hitboxes).

Not children, but Vegeta would never lower himself and insult his race to use such a primitive set of weapons. None of the Z fighters would use guns. Neither would Freiza or Cell. Bulma is the only character that I would believe picking up a gun.

It does 300 headshot damage, 120 body, doesn't it? Did you watch them 180 no scope headshot or something? Or did they do this all in the span of a couple of seconds? The game still has the replay save function doesn't it? If it does you could rewatch the match and see what they did.

My theory is when they are put in the Fortnite world they lose their natural powers and are reverted to the status/power level of an average Jonesy.

Seems very similar to how the cube event was. There are videos around of what the various stages look like, but I won't be watching or posting so it is a fun surprise. People will figure out what time the stages happen so you know when to be playing to watch. This is going to be great.

I hope next season they dont put so much stuff into the "bonus rewards" section next season, having to get to 150 to get all the original stuff is an incredible hassle, Im not used to getting more than just golden reskins past 100, but I suppose they tricked alot of folks into wanting to get the Family Guy meme skins so they'd pay for more level boosters.

Im curious if they did all the extra bonus stuff cause they knew folks would be getting EXP from all over the place this season.

I think it was made purposely tough to get through the bonus rewards without playing festival, racing, lego, etc., to drive people to play those.

see my complaint is now theres like three passes going at once so youve gotta have a calendar or something. pretty sure there were some weekly tmnt quest rewards i didnt get just because i didnt realize it was ending even though i cleared the pass ages ago. let me track more than one quest at a time on the main hud if theres going to be 20 active

although i dont know why i care about unlocking anything when there’s no locker shuffle

I don't like when the bonus rewards has stuff which 'completes' a set that's in the regular Battlepass, like a pickaxe recolor etc.

The Festival Pass has so much great content (the best Gaga song and skin!!) but I don't wanna play the Guitar Hero game to get it :(

I wonder how well this content delivery/payment model is working for Epic vs. just saying "okay you can just buy the things you want for the exact $ value it's worth" because I'd happily spend the exact money for Battle Armor Lady Gaga and Donatello's Staff but recoil in horror whenever I have to buy a coin bundle or take out a pass that takes anyone over 21 years old 3 months to complete

Oh I know! But I felt like there was more "Complete the set" stuff, like original dances/items this go around than normal, usually 100-150 was simply if you wanted the re-colored skins from the battle pass.
Basically I wish I didn't have to get to Lvl 140 to get the Family Guy TV, okay?!

Speaking of, is there anyway to categorize skins/etc by Sets? Cause I hate going through my inventory and forgetting what backpack/pickaxe went with the dude from 5 seasons ago.

How much longer is this season? I've barely played but there's one of the battle pass skins I really want.

I have a ton of v-bucks built up from my crew sub (since I apparently can't cancel that? :v:) so I might just buy the battle pass levels.
