Scyantific posted:Anyone keep up with King Richard or SypherPK? Been watching them while weighing whether or not to get into Fortnite. KR seems pretty chill during his late night streams. I watch SypherPK a fair bit. Dude is chill, never tilts, and occasionally does educational bits during his Fortnite streams, examining his play for the chat. I'd argue he's the best at doing quick building edits too. Fun to watch if you want to see high IQ building.

Scyantific posted:Yeah I used to dump on Sypher back when he bailed on school to stream ESO full time. Good to know he's made it tho. He actually talked about this during one stream, dropping out of school and how his stream was a struggle. Fortnite is really what helped propel him into becoming a legit successful streamer.

Real Cool Catfish posted:Is anyone else watching the Las Vegas tournament? First match went to the wire between the last two. Really well run event. The stream nearly peaked at 700k viewers. As for Fortnite as a spectator esport with hundreds of competitors, yeah, end game Fortnite and any 1v1 building battles that happened were intense as gently caress. Really entertaining to watch. Can't wait till they get a proper spectator client built in for when they inevitably have big money tournaments.

Epic could go the DotA International route and crowd fun the prize pot for whatever big, official tournament they want to put together. All they'd need to do is release a special "Fortnite Tournament Battle Pass" that unlocks an exclusive tournament skin with matching back bling and a pick axe and they'll have their $1 million dollar tournament funded in like a day.

50v50 is good to just mess around in, yeah. I've been playing it only using "off meta" loadouts. It's also good for beginners to hone in on building since you get assloads of materials fast and you won't die for a good long while.

Fortnite doesn't need matchmaking.Kelp Plankton posted:Is there like a guide to not sucking at the game? Other players always seem to land faster than me, find me really easily, build faster and better, etc. I can't ever tell what weapons are good or not either, the colors don't seem to mean much? Just some kind of video guide about basics and slightly advanced stuff would help a lot. I feel kind of lost. Don't glide over hills, trees or mountains when you drop from the bus. Try to aim for valleys/land closer to sea level. You will pop your parachute lower that way. Don't switch between building structures with the scroll wheel. Re-bind your build keys to make them easily accessible. Doing so enables you to build faster. Bind the keys to whatever is most comfortable for you. Weapon colors don't really matter tbh, but in most cases if you have a gray gun and see a green gun, pick up the green gun, if you have a green gun pick up the blue one, etc. The only time this doesn't matter is if you suck with the pump shotgun, stick to the tactical or heavy shotgun. Or if you have like a gray pistol and see a green revolver. That's more so player preference in those instances. Avoid the semi-auto sniper, light machine gun, and mini-gun. "Meta" weapon kit includes any assault rifles, shotguns, and sniper rifles. The semi-auto/suppressed pistol can be good if you don't have anything else. The deagle is also a good medium range alternative if you don't have a sniper rifle. Rocket launcher/grenades (splodes) are always good to have. You ideally want a rifle as your main weapon. You always want a shotgun for those close range fights, but if you don't have one, a tac SMG is a good alternative. With loot it also helps to keep a consistent organization scheme in your inventory slots, e.g., 1st slot is your pickaxe, 2nd is medium/long range weapon (rifles), 3rd is close range (shotgun/tac smg), 4th is sniper, 5 and 6 for splodes and health items. Rebind those slots if necessary as well. teagone fucked around with this message at 17:18 on May 5, 2018 |

Anyone into competitive Fortnite, Keemstar's Friday Fortnite started an hour ago. Brackets, rules, etc. here https://umggaming.com/friday-fortnite/brackets [edit] Will say I watched last week, and while I'm not super fond of the format they use, it is still more entertaining to see top streamers try to outfrag one another than just regular standard Fortnite play. Think Epic can do something better though, for whenever they settle on a standardized tournament format. teagone fucked around with this message at 22:42 on May 25, 2018 |

Glad that now there's funny streamer drama introduced this week lmao You referring to Myth being a salty baby about Sypher's delay not being 2min? Myth looked like he was gonna cry during the discussion of what to do lmao. And yeah, the tourney is pretty cool. The Ninja/KingRichard vs SypherPK/Nickmercs match was insane. Both matches they had over 30+ kills as a squad, in favor of Ninja/KingRichard. Seeing a third of the server get shredded by one squad was really fun.

Yeah, the building mechanic in the game is what sets it apart from pretty much everything else. Plenty of people hate it. I think it makes the game fun as gently caress, especially when you get a good enough grasp on it to edge out 1v1s in build battles. I feel like I'm playing some crazy hybrid shooter puzzle game when I'm going up against someone else who also knows how to build.

Nickmercs is too "dudebro" for me, but he seems chill. I really only watch Sypher's Fortnite stream now. Or whenever Calvin is streaming Fortnite but that's rare. Tim is bad at the game, and I only find him funny when I'm watching him on other people's streams. His screaming voice is great background filler when watching an actual good player lol.

Before there was only one emote. Now there are lots. You can also just hit B to bring up the emote menu and hit the corresponding number to use whatever emote, i.e., press B and then press 1 and you'll do the emote in the 1st slot. It's literally just one more keypress lmao.

Voodoo posted:And now we see the issue with BR as an esport. 40 people dead so far and exactly zero of the kills have been seen on camera. Think they need to scale up production in that regard. Get 10 or 15 people on observer cameras each match to scope out potential hot zones. End game Fortnite doesn't really have any issues though; build fights are really fun to watch. I clipped the build fight where Ninja got eliminated by Gotaga in the solos warmup match. Gives a decent look at how the new observer client can handle Fortnite Esports. https://clips.twitch.tv/KnottyBlushingPieFutureMan [edit] Also yeah, Lupo has been a great caster. Hope he continues to do that for future Fortnite tourneys.
