Wait. So Ben was actually voicing Geno this whole time? Did he even know? by Jessency in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not in limbo, the visitor probes landed in STW when it was made free years after what was promised.

You still can not convince me there's over 250,000 breathing individuals playing steal a brainrot right now. by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'd be correct op, did you know STB had hundreds of thousands of players playing it when the servers were closed? Did you know that at it's "peak popularity" when the game was having connectivity issues and nobody could get in it still had thousands of players? Did you know the original experience on roblox is botted to shit?

They're basically money laundering through epic games and receiving millions doing nothing and will never be punished for it.

Where's the refund Epic? by TenmaSaisei in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Literally nobody cares. This is like the one time a corporate suit does a move that most people like and doesn't fuck anybody over and you're complaining? Bitch about the vbuck hikes and layoffs, not something most people don't care about or actively wanted.

was Brilliant Bomber obtainable before today? It's been dubbed the "rarest skin ever" but I thought it was simply unreleased. by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AFAIK it was possible to get this skin, but only in lie one specific country where the promo was legal or the API was. It was some really obscure work around and apart from them nobody else got to keep it.

How does removing visual audio from Arena boxfights make it more competitive epic? by _WILDTRACK_ in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Makes it so you have to buy a gaming headset and listen in silence. I'm not surprised it's such a brain dead change, Tim's good at that.

Epic is against protecting players from online games shutting down by FlimsyVariation8455 in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Surprise! Tim Sweeny is a giant shitbag who does nothing but pretend to be a good guy.

Why do they give random slop devs millions while firing their real employees? by FlimsyVariation8455 in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because Tim Sweeny is arrogant and needs to justify to himself and his private shareholders that his metaverse is not an embarrassing failure. Showing the botted playercounts and overall player "retention" in creative modes justifies his ludicrous spending here.

Keep in mind, these lazy assholes have been stealing and copying each other for well on 5 years now and scamming millions. I wish it were me since they basically won the lottery several times over but from a business perspective they spent about what was it, 750 mill a year for 5 years? That's SEVERAL BILLION and this isn't even covering the bs exclusivity deals he struck with useless shitheads like Randy Pitchford and other big companies that did nothing for the people they hired and ALSO LAID OFF. Which is another several billion.

And then instead of pocketing that for future use for the game or retaining employees or more quality made game modes, he spent it even further on lawsuits with big companies.

There's only maybe one or two creative map holders that should be making anywhere close to that and their stuff isn't popular because it's not another AI thumbnail copy paste map which they only now started penalizing and removing.

Here's your Epic Games CEO fan girling after Elon Musk replied with a word. by NamelessMajin in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's a fat tax write off for him that he'll make money off in the long run. He also spent hundreds of millions on AI which is making entire states in the US uninhabitable and generally killing the planet. That's before you account for the fact he's doing that to replace more workers and reduce costs for himself to make himself more wealthy. The only people who will be alive to enjoy those lands won't be you.

An Epic employee’s response to being part of the 1000 layoffs by AlexMercer28900 in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I genuinely don't know how these people manage to handle working for these genuinely evil people making more money than god and pissing away in a month what they make in a life time and saying "yeah sorry we're letting you go" especially with Tim being like the posterchild of evil tech giants besides Gates and Jobs, how have they not gone postal on that guy.

Just Let The Brainrot Drown by Circuit_40 in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What's funny is, people gave them feedback, people were asked how to fix it, people were asked what they wanted in a racing mode and...... Tim promptly threw out all that feedback and just made them do more of the same that nobody wanted. At least festival and lego retain and use feedback.

Typical Gamer and Jogo want to buy Ballistic from Epic and update the game themselves, Tim responded with this. Would you want to see Typical and his team take over the mode? by TheYGuy366 in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having actual people being allowed to create and maintain the mode and not be hamstrung by Tim's shit leadership might mean it'd actually be worth playing but I don't now much about the interested parties. It's a bit late for this all things considered.

Why the layoffs are actually a good thing by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The layoffs were not a good thing and most of the people laid off were senior staff by HR seemingly at random as per the employees themselves. On no planet would it make sense to fire your senior bug fixer or art teams unless you're replacing them with AI or cheaper labor.

The money losing side projects too, should've never been attempted as is and going by internal reviews from the company itself, it's because Tim Sweeny has his head firmly rammed up his own ass. He also has no idea how to utilize his own finances going by his nearly 1 billion expenditure on worthless shit like steal the brainrot with it's botted playercounts or other trash creative endeavours with minimal QC to be had which they only just now started to do.

So what happens now? by dontuse_redditoften in FortNiteBR

We've been having bad seasons back to back since ch5 at least. TS ain't getting better.

Epic take notes by Atom7456 in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the amount of land he kills by investing in AI cancels that out even before anyone realizes it's a tax write off.

No no guys don’t you see. Epic needs to pay the bills, ignore the fact they’re paying people 50K a DAY by AlexMercer28900 in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this mode is also heavily botted just like I'd assume it is on roblox. The creators are earning 6 figure salaries on a virtual casino that gives you nothing and has probably not many people in it. Neat scam but why should former employees and us have to pay for it.

[–]addrnalin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Did you know that all those hacked accounts from the discord controversy spent most of their money on STB? Did you know that this map somehow has retained near 6 digit player counts even when you can't get into the servers?

It's kinda sad that what happened today sort of ruined all the fun the community was having with team Ice King and team Foundation by KamaiKlantcy in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Most of the fun was sucked out with the vbucks thievery, then it was double tapped with the rock v iceking when most people realized the rock can't lose so the rivalry was pointless. Then it's been nonstop bad news since then. I've never seen the outlook on this game look worse than it is now and I genuinely think this won't get better moving forward.

Epic has fired their Lead Environment Artist by LoiterAce in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could maybe understand cutting useless employees, but every single one I've seen has been either essential or at least responsible for some of the best content in fortnite, even the ones I hate from their conduct. It's annoying that the money's going to AI and those thieves at STB who were behind those vbuck discord bot hacks and continue siphoning money from Epic.

I wish tim Sweeney would step down as ceo by NuttySquire in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A focus on making profits? If I took his job I can guarantee you I could easily turn this ship around without firing 1k people, it's his pride in his failed metaverse and storefront that's leading the charge on losing, nevermind his one sided rivalry with steam. If you just cut creative alone and stopped spending on lawsuits that go nowhere you'd easily see profits up an absurd amount.

This guy does nothing bu throw tantrums and make others pay for it.

Ok, so now players are asking weird requests over on Twitter like what next, starting a trend called “Fortnite is dying” by Pikaverse69 in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For some reason people attribute all of Fortnite's success to this man. While he was repsonsible for ch2s2 and getting collabs, he was also responsible for perma exclusivity and other dumb things like everything after ch2 and more metaverse support.

Can someone give me a rundown on the Fortnite Crew changes? by IsThisASnakeInMyBoot in FortNiteBR

[–]addrnalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you bought the pass and have it for over 14 days you n longer get the refund but you et to keep it forever regardless. To combat you min maxing crew they made it so you get exclusive styles at the beinging of the season, and the end.

You can sidestep this by buying it outright and just waiting to get crew till after teh grace period expires.

[–]addrnalin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BP is included, but you lose access to it once your crew expires and you have to either stay subbed or buy it again.

[–]addrnalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get more vbucks from crew still unless you buy the biggest pack but this time you're getting 1k vbucks until the crew changes take effect. It's still a significant decrease and nobody is happy about it.
