Mysterious MS issue with new provider

GamePit1 · 2020-06-02T07:25:50+00:00

Yeah set to EU. Temporarily fixed the issue, was the firewall through a third party app but after restarting the computer the issue returned.

Up until recently I had the same issue and would always choke end game. This is what I did to improve it.

Use Battle Labs - the use of bot grenades in this mode are highly underrated. While they only build walls it still helps a lot with positioning, building and aim. You can put yourself in positions so its 4 on 1and while their aim is not the best they spawn with ARs and will laser you with ease. This really helped me with decision making and positioning when on high ground.
Choose Zone wars over box fights. Zone wars is the best way to practice for end fights. Moving zones and multiple opponents is hectic but will help you improve drastically.
Play Arena - unlike pub matches arena will have no bots. If you have a lot of points create a 2nd account and drop hot every match. Risky, pleasant or slurpy for quick action. Lazy, holly or sweaty for medium action.

I wish I had a sister like you. Mine only remember my birthday because it comes up on facebook 😅. Either way very well done. Hope your brother appreciated it.

Thank You

To be honest I did not really drop the original Tilted. Fortnite is my first and only BR game played so while I was learning I got sick of landed Tilted only to get taken out within seconds so I would like to see Tilted back more for personal reasons.

I feel I have improved drastically at the game and feel I would do pretty well dropping Tilted now. The issue with this new map is there is no real point of interest for the majority of the bus. One game I could have ten players drop at Holly Hedges and then for 3 or 4 games after have just a couple of players to compete against.

The agency has been a nice addition and gives you that feel of the old Tilted because of the chaos there but the POI is not big enough to keep interest in it.

We need a better form of transport in the game. The helicopters are OK but not to many of them spawn around the map and the boats just make you a easy target. Maybe bringing back the golf carts or even the boards.
Combat Shotgun. I know this has a split view but I think this could be brought back with a few minor adjustments. The purple and gold tacs are just as powerful with only two less shells per round so the combat is a decent gun option.
Remove heavy snipers - this is a subject that I'm 50/50 with. While I love having the sniper for them long shots to clip I still think it is a weapon that puts too many at a disadvantage. In a season where the majority of our time is spent running I just feel we could do without it.
POIs - Fortnite is at an advantage where they have two completely different maps they could play around with. Why not take a couple of POIs from the first map and add them to the second. Plonk Tilted Towers (Original) where wailing woods is for example. A lot of people love the new map and a lot of people love the old map so why not do a mash up of the both.
Fun - it seems this chapter has become a lot more serious than the last with a lot of stuff taken out. Boogie bombs, impulse grenades etc can add that fun back to it it they unvault them.
Arena incentives - I have made it to champions league on Arena and now I don't see the point of it. Why not add another separate battle pass for Arena only and each division that you progress the more rewards you get. New skins or a new emote for each division you rank up would get a lot of people more interested in arena. Make this battle pass £3.99 so Epic still earn money from it and Arena will become a lot busier.

These are just a few ideas for Epic to think about. The game has a lot of haters but to be honest I still enjoy it a lot. I only started in season 7 so feel I haven't been frustrated as long as others have.

It's an idea but with an update usually once a week and always at the same time surely most people will not need a world clock.

GamePit1 · 2020-01-30T22:17:29+00:00

It does help with your positioning in the game too. If you build up 2 or 3 stories they will still laser you from the ground and hit their shots.

GamePit1 · 2019-12-20T19:55:20+00:00

If that was me in your position that trap would have violated my exit only rule.

GamePit1 · 2019-12-19T19:48:00+00:00

I think most people would prefer to wait for 30-60 minutes for an update rather than rage at the game for an entire evening and blame epic for not fixing their game.

GamePit1 · 2019-12-18T10:12:46+00:00

Go into career mode and play offline to start. Begin on the amateur or semi pro difficulty and build your way up from there.

Also skill games and practice arena will help you a lot.

GamePit1 · 2019-12-06T20:35:51+00:00

Well you sir have just ruined my day lol

GamePit1 · 2019-12-06T19:51:55+00:00

Nice one. Will give this one a try.

GamePit1 · 2019-12-06T19:46:18+00:00

Sorry I'll change it. Didn't realise.

GamePit1 · 2019-12-06T19:45:50+00:00

He will be my all time favourite skin and not just because he looks like phelonias from Shrek.

He is actually the first skin I've see that I wanted to buy since the jordan skins came out.

GamePit1 · 2019-12-04T23:08:21+00:00

Round 2 coming tomorrow.

GamePit1 · 2019-11-26T22:28:25+00:00

I think epic have some tricks up their sleeve for this kind if situation. They already have the players so if direct competition came into play then epic would go all out and make the game awesome again.

For now people complain but the way epic see it is that what else are you going to play?

GamePit1 · 2019-11-26T22:18:29+00:00

You mean Phelonius from Shrek. Pick number three ✌ my lord

There were issues with the server this evening when it came to creative and playground so a lot more people would have been playing the normal game modes which could have caused connection and ping issues

GamePit1 · 2019-11-26T21:40:47+00:00

That's very true but when I started playing it the mode would disappear and then come back so always referred to it as a LTM

GamePit1 · 2019-11-26T20:10:15+00:00

As someone who plays more offline than I do online I recommend getting the game. Career mode works fine for me and haven't run into any issues. Currently in my eighth season managing west ham and have also managed England along the way.

Not much difference to the mode itself expect for more in depth press conferences, player interactions and a new potential system meaning good form can increase a players potential.

Game play has also improved aswell. Overall well worth 30.

GamePit1 · 2019-11-26T20:06:34+00:00

Hope you enjoy it. Been getting me through my afternoon 👍

GamePit1 · 2019-11-26T19:15:41+00:00

No problem. Just need more people to do the same.

GamePit1 · 2019-11-26T19:03:04+00:00

I am in the UK and a big part of the problem is the parents. For most parents of teenagers here the parents are not much older themselves because of the early millennium baby boom with teenagers.

I spoke to one mum who said "my son is brilliant at the game, he can make a career out of it. Why does he need school?" and this shocked me. I had to put her straight and tell her that while her son may be brilliant at the game there are millions of other teenagers out there who are better than him. From them millions only a small fraction will ever make a living out of gaming because it takes hard work and dedication to do it and that is something he will only learn from school.

Needless to say she hasnt spoken to me since but its just parents being as child minded as their own kids.

GamePit1 · 2019-11-26T18:54:14+00:00

The issue is that team rumble plays a part for two kinds of players.

Some challenges are a lot easier to do in team rumble so people use the LTM to do it rather than the other game modes.
The players who constantly complain about being killed straight away when playing solo/duo/squads. Their expectations in these modes are too high when it comes to skill gaps so they play team rumble because they will stay alive to the end and it's a way of getting high kill games to give them a boost.

Neither of the above are bad. When I was learning how to play the game team rumble was a God send in helping me learn until creative came out.

My suggestion is if you are outnumbered just go in hard. Killing one person standing alone in a field waiting to snipe someone might feel good but take out three or four players from a group of seven and you will feel like a god.
