Battle pass chat - developers state that full completion is aimed on average of 75-100 hours if I remember correctly, but it seems to be going rather fast for me.

If you do all challenges, you also break even with cost of it as there are 100 vbucks as a reward for each 7 tiers.

It's a lot faster if you play with friends for the bonus there.

Lol at anyone squading up with and wanting to talk to pubbies.

The goon Discord has very little activity and the Reddit/Epic one is awful :shrug:

All goons are mentally stable and fun to play with at all times, everyone who has ever played lol/dota2 knows this.

Pubg is trash lmao: unoptimized, buggy, loot crate microtransactions, generic gameplay and aesthetics, costs $30.

Seriously, I'm glad Fortnite brought in a fresh look and concept to the genre.

And yet finding a group of goons to play a match of pubg is a painless effort while the goon Fortnite Discord is mostly people missing each other by hours to play games together :(

Two indicators the game uses is time alive and placement and there doesn't seem to be a kick timer.

Does this game even record KDR?

Also new battle pass confirmed for 7/12/18

I was in some Discord where people were stressing KDA ratios hard for team picking is the only reason I know. Otherwise seems pretty unimportant.

That's how I got the trap kill, knock someone down in duos, box them in, put the trap right under them :clint:

I did the unethical: solo queue with a buddy and did a trap kill. I've also sometimes recognized when someone is trying to get an explosion kill and just let them have it. I'm ruining this game.

Not sure if this got posted already but I was pleasantly surprised to find that you can get the explosive damage challenge by exploding yourself. With enough shields and medkits you might even be able to do it in one match.

Stick yourself, run into a group of enemies in a 50v50.

The leave/achievement mechanic could probably be done better. For example, you don't get credit if quitting out, probably to discourage that kind of behavior, but it's trivial to just build up 10 stairs and plummet to your death.

Not sure what you're asking... I have been using a xim for about two and half years, and I love it. I don't want to make a big investment into a gaming pc, and all my friends are on console. As was mentioned, Fortnite has native support for k/m on PS4. I haven't tried a direct input because Sony only put 2 USB PORTS ON THEIR CONSOLE :argh: and I need one dedicated to my wireless headset.

Couldn't you just buy a USB hub for :10bux:?

Is the Discord in the OP still the best place to look for goons to team up with?

The Overchill one is pretty active. The others not so much.

So some people will edit the pyramid piece to look like a ramp, because it has more durability than normal ramps and allows for consistent peaking through the cracks.

When I tried this in-game it showed them as having the same hp. Is this not the case?

As far as I know, you get your earned XP immediately but I haven't done the math to check it for sure. I often stick around if it looks like we'll win for the extra fifty though.

You don't get the win xp if you don't stick around? That's silly :(

This is like those jpgs but better since you can toggle multiple weeks at once and toggle off clutter / completed ones.

E: Some of them are clickable too and lead to youtube vids, which is useful for the hidden tiers that aren't always obvious from just a pin on a map.

This is great. Thanks.

I’m glad Fortnite isn’t a competitive tryhard shooter, and I’m glad it doesn’t have matchmaking.

With 100 people in every match, it’s almost guaranteed that there are people in there that you can absolutely dunk on, people evenly matched to you and people who will absolutely dunk on you.

To me that’s perfect

It would still be possible to do wide tranches and maintain that, though.

A large, large number of my rando squad losses come directly from one of my teammates deciding that if an enemy exists on their screen, they need to shoot them immediately.

It is way more fun to make other people lose than it is to win.
