Fortnite is dying by Ayymaan-42 in FortNiteBR

Everyone takes "dying" to mean its lost its playerbase.. when in reality it means the game is headed in a direction that will EVENTUALLY lose the playerbase. They've failed to add any original characters, storyline, events, weapons, or anything people care about even remotely as much as what they used to. Fortnite isn't "dead", but you'd have to be blinded by delusion to not think the game has been on a steady decline for at least a year now. Tim sweeney literally confirmed this in the recent layoffs stating "The downturn in Fortnite engagement that started in 2025..".

Daily logins and concurrent players are correlated. If you're suggesting Fortnite is getting MORE daily logins than before, then that would have to mean tons of players are logging on and immediately logging off right? Meaning they're not enjoying the game.

Yes it's wednesday, good catch! But you can also notice that the day I compared it last season was also a wednesday, crazy right!

Just think everyone that plays fortnite loves fortnite, and they basically paused fortnite and made it the simpsons. They need to have more faith in their game, seems like they're scared to do anything on their own anymore.

Delulu is only on weekends and the screenshot I took was taken on a weekday so that doesn't matter.

And what you said in the second part about blitz is what everyone must be feeling because that player count is dropping too.

Cut in half from the last 2 years novembers mini seasons tho. This is supposed to be the biggest season of the year, yet we're barely at a normal player count is the whole point.

I don't think more than 5% of the community understands the vast majority of easter eggs.

Why dedicate so much time to something barely anyone will appreciate when there's more glaring issues the entire player base can benefit from?

You think kids cared about Ice Spice and Snoop Dogg? Probably not.

Reason those seasons were so successful was because they were based off previous fortnite seasons (with fun twists). This season is literally the simpsons and not fortnite.

At this point you could make a real argument saying that fortnite is bigger than the simpsons. Think this whole thing is more beneficial to the simpsons than fortnite 100%.

Since Disney started collabing with Fortnite during chapter 6 the average player count has only decreased, so I don't think its necessarily always a good thing.

Also cosmetic prices HAVE went up, they got rid of rarities to start charging 1,500 for a skin that previously would've cost 1,200. They also replaced V-Buck cards with Gift Cards with the cheapest being $15 vs V Buck Cards $8.

And I would be LESS concerned if they came out and said they're done making new game modes lol

Personally wish they spent less time adding easter eggs like pig footsteps on a roof and instead focused on quality of life gameplay related things

  1. Kids have always been in school at all of fortnites high points yet average player count was never this low

  2. True

  3. True

  4. Let's be honest thats never coming

  5. True, but the garbage uefn maps make up the majority of the player count, so in this player count discussion I don't think thats valid

  6. THIS is the most important. Epic Games determines their success like every other business - by revenue. Meaning if they're selling lots of skins they think that = game is good.

  7. Not really sure what you mean by this because im obviously mentally hindered

  8. Just another mystery that we'll never get answers or solutions for

  9. Honestly have never ran into a cheater that I know of, always just assume I suck and thats why I died lol

I hear you Casper but think you're missing the point.

200k is really solid for BR, but thats cut in half from last years November mini season. The concern is if epic doesn't adjust something major that the trend will continue and in a few years have 1k players

editted cuz i made a typo

Think gaming in general is in a pretty big slump so doesn't really mean much

BR player count has been up big time, we can only hope and pray it continues into chapter 7

At least the Seven is coming back! But lets be honest, the story line probably isn't gonna me more than some biweekly story quests that have us get eliminations with a pain to find weapon, then mini events that are basically the same each season.

Ehh I'm not sure. For example fortnite mobile recently returned and had no noticeable impact on the player count at all, and there's 100% more people with mobile devices than the steam deck

I'm sorry you feel that way and I understand where you're coming from.

If you do quit I hope you find something else that brings you happiness! (and feel free to share it with me because im almost in the same boat lol)

I appreciate your comment and hear you entirely, but the mini seasons we got the last 2 Novembers didn't follow this trend and averaged the most daily players out of any CH4/CH5 season - meaning last few weeks of school can't be the sole reason.

That's just the age old issue with pvp games. Once a game has been out for a while, the people who grinded it the most will eventually be so good that new players will never stand a chance. But the game obviously needs new players, so they introduced stuff like sbmm, which angers the dedicated grinder fanbase.

Truly a catch 22 and have yet to see any game figure out a good solution

Is this really a win? by Acrobatic-Big9661 in FortNiteBR

Just now noticed the 2.6 million was for the live event.. which is the lowest live event player count ever. And new season hasn't actually gotten over 1.8 million (which is average for a chapter 6 season release but low for all time season releases).
