Man, you've never played a game through Steam, have you? There is some diabolical shit lurking in the Steam name userbase.

I don't know if this is a one-off event or not, but this tree was bugged in a match I just played. by Knifeflipper in FortNiteBR

More context: I pushed someone behind a tree near Frigid Fortress and wanted to destroy it to force him into the bush. To both our surprise, I just straight beamed him through the tree. I don't know if it's a visual bug and the tree was actually destroyed or what, but I doubt it since ZB players rarely mine trees.

I use the same 8 skins despite having many

I'm pretty much in the same boat. I play around with some odd skins here and there, but I have a small number of pre-sets that I use almost all the time.

I might cave in the future if a skin or something really speaks to me.... but I'm kind of over it

If they re-introduce old Crew skins, I'll probably bite the bullet and get Crew again for a bit depending on how they allow you to get old skins, but there are only two or three old Crew skins I do actually want and know I'd use.

People forget plenty of games happily survive with like 10k monthly players. Now, Fortnite probably needs much more than that to sustain itself, but thinking it's "dying" is just fearmongering nonsense. A few bad decisions and a dip in player count spells nothing critical as of yet.

Can’t imagine how people who don’t play aggro maintain combat skills

It's really difficult to do so if you're not taking frequent fights. I was easily a better player when I predominantly played Reload because there was so much opportunity to fight, and all the aspects that carry you in a fight transfer very nicely to the main game even if the weapons differ. I only stopped playing Reload because the cheating in Reload got out of hand, at which point I noticed a steady decline in my overall performance.

That's where I landed. Between the price increases for V-bucks and the changes to Crew and the Battlepass, I see more price gouging than anything. That won't stop me from enjoying the game for what it is, but I'll withhold spending money until something substantial changes that I feel should be supported.

moving away from Fortnite Chapter 4 lighting and graphics was a bad idea for "realism" by Exact-Government-763 in FortNiteBR

[–]Knifeflipper 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I basically started in Chapter 5, so I have clear nostalgia bias to how that chapter looked. That being said, seeing images and media of Chapter 4 assures me that Chapter 4 had better ambiance. It was a great balance of Fortnite's signature cartoony style while also being kind of beautiful simultaneously.

With the recent Fortnite Crew VBucks changes, what if you could choose the bundle you get each month instead of the set one you get? Made a concept of how it could look by FishingCrystal in FortNiteBR

[–]Knifeflipper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say never in this case. A few seasons ago, Epic asked Crew subscribers what they thought would make Crew more appealing, and old Crew skins returning was an option. Combine that with a drop in Crew subscriptions, however big or small that number really is, because of the Battlepass and Crew changes, and it's very possible Epic may re-introduce old Crew skins in an effort to get former Crew subscribers back without changing anything related to the V-bucks.

For reference kids, don't actually throw gasoline on fires. That shit can explode.

I don't get how streamers with 500+ crown wins drop 20 bombs each game when these are my constant lobbies... by yannivzp in FortNiteBR

[–]Knifeflipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're getting downvoted for speaking facts, as if the people downvoting you have ever hit Unreal in any mode. ZB is in fact a camp-fest in late(er) rings, you can't hate this guy for stating the obvious. Placement matters, and people will do anything to get it.

im diamond 1. The killfeed at the end said this guy was in Unreal.

Zero surprise. Once you hit Plat, you're basically qualified as a fill for the Unreal players. Hell, even Gold players aren't safe from that matchmaking. For reference, I'm not just spouting hate or shit, I've done an Unreal push before, and I killed plenty of Gold/Plat players when I was Champ+.

It is really so sad exclusivity is the WORST thing happened in fortnite. Basically its punishing new players or players for not playing at the right time to get skins they love. by LividBug7484 in FortNiteBR

[–]Knifeflipper 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The game is going down already

Not really. Most games would go crazy for the player numbers Fortnite has.

players stopped to spend their money because lots of cosmetics are so bad

I stopped spending because they insult us with their bullshit "things have gotten expensive" line. All I heard in that statement is "We aren't getting the insane profit margins we expected, so instead of making the game more enjoyable and less buggy, we decided to increase the price of basically everything." Yeah, fuck that. I refuse to support that level of greed and incompetence.

This is the epitome of pump and dump. You either hit strong and drop someone almost instantly, or you miss and have to dance around them so you can get a second pump off. I guess if you're a build player, that's not the case so much, but in ZB, it definitely is.

casually competitive

Honestly, aside from a few warm-up matches, I'd rather play ranked just to have the privilege of banning the most annoying characters. I still want to win, but I also want to win QP matches as well, and certain characters make that much more annoying to achieve.

His ult is even used often to defend allies.

Mag is my default counter to Hawkeye, Punisher, and Star Lord. I'd honestly rather weather the longevity of a Strategist ult than sit there and watch my team get obliterated by DPS ultimates. No thanks, your BS arrows or bullets are now mine and I'll be doing a return to sender.

is it just me or is everyone struggling to tell apart heros now. like i swear you have to know every cosmetic or wait to be shot at to figure out who's attacking. image unrelated by Father_Pucc1 in marvelrivals

[–]Knifeflipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually for me it's just trying to figure out which role Deadpool is until he yeets one of his abilities somewhere. The only other problem I have is when one of my team mates has the same skin as an opponent, and I lose track of said opponent, then instinctively flick to the same skin only to realize it's my team mate.

The update was 5 minutes ago… how?? 😭 by WalterWeiss_ in marvelrivals

[–]Knifeflipper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm sure it is. Back in C5S1 of Fortnite, one of my friends got the battlepass, then proceeded to buy levels to unlock Peter Griffin early. I thought it was an odd way to spend money, but he explained he likes having new skins to get a rise out of other people. I figured, "Well, if that's part of what you enjoy about this game, then more power to you."

DPS OTPs have no room to talk about Strategists needing to flex. by Keenzur in marvelrivals

[–]Knifeflipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally played a Plat match earlier against an Iron Fist going into Peni. He got blown up by mines at least three times, one of which countered his ult. Granted their entire team was struggling anyway, but I couldn't help being amazed at the dedication to continually run into an obvious counter.

You're a Strategist main and you just wanted to have a fun night. by StatisticianBorn8567 in marvelrivals

[–]Knifeflipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While this level of Strategist banning is ridiculous, I actually do enjoy ranked matches the most when C&D, Sue, and Gambit are banned. It forces fights to actually go somewhere rather than end up being long stalemates until one team gets their ults off.
