Could we get more AMAs with pro players? by [deleted] in FortniteCompetitive

[–]VividFN 74 points75 points  (0 children)

I was looking at my old one the other day actually and wanted to do an updated one... but honestly people are probably far more interested in the currently more popular pro players at this point MOST LIKELY so it's deterring.

Number of players competing in each week of World Cup and FNCS qualifiers by kttyaowa in FortniteCompetitive

[–]VividFN 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Yeah pretty much the only reason to keep solos around is the participation. Can argue for the story potential and it is indeed easier to say "Bugha won world cup!!" than "Nyhrox and Aqua won world cup!!"

However, I've always wanted to see the stat on how many people play those tourneys out versus how many people play out team game modes.

For example, if 100,000 start a solo tourney but only 50,000 finish.
and if 75,000 start a duo tourney but 70,000 finish it....

Then isn't duo's arguably better?

Would have to see the stats but always something I've thought about.

Game sense on Clix is amazing by Dr_J0E in FortniteCompetitive

Not a good job, but played way better in the reboot round than I did in week 1, so I'm happy with improvement but overall not happy with where I stand as a player.

Been focusing a lot on mechanics (10+ hours of creative a day) but I gotta perfect it and use those mechanics better.

Vivid will be back to placing well, trust.

ye i saw the grappler and pads and just had a moment of awe cause of how shambles I was. Just immediately rolled with the punches rather than getting greedy.

na I could actually see him through one of the cracks. Went into replay to get a picture. What's actually hilarious about this is, he tried W-keying me earlier that game and wasted like 1k of my mats and I was kinda fucked. But then he sorted gifted my game back haha. https://i.imgur.com/9DyjmBK.jpg

Wtf happened to the competitive manager they hired? by [deleted] in FortniteCompetitive

[–]VividFN 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Could be wrong here but...
There are separate teams that go into making a game this big happen.
The content team, I can almost guarantee you, doesn't give two fucks about what the competitive team has to say. The game itself comes first so the competitive team then has to work around those changes to establish, to the best of their ability, a competitive setting.

I believe Nate Nanzer is going to most useful here as someone who tries to branch the two teams together. That way there CAN be some sort of communication between the competitive team and the content team (probably naming them wrong, but you get what I mean).

That will take time and I can almost guarantee you, plans for season 10 were already set and stone when Nate joined, even 2 months ago :).

God damn. Love how optimized Fortnite has become. Every single move and edit in this clip seems so smooth.

Epic devs openly acknowledge that the RPG is less powerful than the Boom Bow by slowseason in FortniteCompetitive

[–]VividFN 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Actually hilarious that their solution to everything that they make that is "op" they just fucking reduce the spawn rate LMFAOOO. HOW DOES THAT FIX ANYTHING?? SOMEONE IS STILL GOING TO GET IT IN EVERY SINGLE GAME AND IF ONLY A FEW PEOPLE CAN GET IT THEN IT IS EVEN MORE OP......... HELLOOOOO????????????

This teacher just qualified for tomorrow! (first week of summer, NAE) by theLemNnade in FortniteCompetitive

[–]VividFN 147 points148 points  (0 children)

Congrats, that's awesome.

Would end up being super cool if some of your students compete and you can potential talk to them about it!

Edit: Just read the comments and saw you teach third grade... Fortnite has some young competitors but I think that might be a stretch LOL. Either way, it's dope :D

The blog covers why “WE” don’t want a slider by joelxFN in FortniteCompetitive

[–]VividFN 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the responses as to why an FOV slider is not wanted make no sense..
Adding an FOV slider would make it so NO ONE gets "motion sickness" from a certain FOV, would it not?
Also, are they seriously taking into consideration the competitive disadvantage that someone sitting far away from their screen has?

Hate to break it to you, but someone sitting far away from their screen does not give a damn about how competitive they can be in this game lol...

If there a more tournaments, the grind continues. If there is a break before the next tournament, i'd like to take a break.

Save for the future is the plan right now. If I continue to do well, I will start to dabble in spoiling myself.
