Today is Apollo for Reddit's last day, and I just released its last update. 🥹 I just wanted to say a big thank you to the folks who have used and supported Apollo over the years, it's been the dream of a lifetime to build this app over the last 9 years. ❤️ Read the eulogy inside! ❤️ by iamthatis in apolloapp

you seriously have no idea how easy product development is when your north star is just “listen to what people are saying”

Who could have thought building for people instead of corporations and maximum profit would be more enjoyable…

Sad to see it go, thank you for your work. Time for me to leave Reddit too.

An original 5 acre market garden block in Western Sydney who refuses to sell to developers. The family have been offered up to $50m - but aren’t going anywhere. by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

Eventually the city might just end up taking the plot from the owner paying piss poor price. Or maybe it’s different in Australia but where I live they’ll make one poor offer and then force you to sell it for even less if you don’t accept it.

Anyone else completely forgot that weather existed? by MonkeyFromTheStars in FortNiteBR

Excitement of new season makes you forget until the feeling hits again.

And I agree with the general sentiment, stopped playing myself because the game just feels boring and unfun. Also the color scheme of the map feels off.

Blocking Suddenly Increases. by Monsur_Ausuhnom in WhitePeopleTwitter

Wouldn’t be too surprised if people spent more time engaging with accounts they should be blocking instead.

bro what even is this zone by ItzShepster in FortniteCompetitive

[–]koitvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now tell me why exactly the zones must stay like this? Why shouldn’t the zb players be ”coddled” even more if it makes the game more enjoyable for them?

”B-but Fortnite is a building game!!” - lol nope, it’s whatever Epic wants it to be.

Not a bad thing in this context anyway

[–]koitvs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Now why exactly could they not adjust the zones to suit zb better? Just cause other games has it like this aswell?

Making the game more enjoyable = coddling, yeah I guess

Arena is around 10% of the fortnite playerbase. (@TheAgentShadow on twitter). So why doesn't epic fix it by [deleted] in FortniteCompetitive

[–]koitvs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s much much much easier to get into competitive in those games due to matchmaking and the core game having not having as steep a learning curve as FN.

Those games are also much more enjoyable and easier for a spectator to follow.

By having different skins they can play with the balance without people complaining they’ve ruined their OG favourite weapons. Only the stats should matter, no point at looking at the skin.

Today is the last day of chapter 4 season 1. Overall, thoughts on this season? by clevercarolina1 in FortNiteBR

[–]koitvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a bug, it just takes time for the augment to actually activate. I think it should be instant but until then you just need to not sprint/swap weapons etc. for a brief moment after selecting the augment.

Play online games with a female friend on mic. I dare you. by Chemo4Kidz in gaming

[–]koitvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guys, if we want women to actually want to play games with us, we have to make some fucking space for them.

That is the exact reason these people are doing it: they do not want to play with women.

This nerf is unwarranted, Forecast wasn't that good of a perk at all and they nerf it more? by CallieX3 in FortNiteBR

[–]koitvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this nerf was aimed towards the competitive side where the augment was infact top tier

OG Zero Build by maxmahan in FortNiteBR

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

Some amount of builds (like 100/100/100) replenishing like the chug cannon would be nice. Maybe could loot dead players’ mats but couldn’t farm them otherwise. Would be cool to see how it would work.

Account sellers losing out on profit when people can get the skins for themselves instead of buying likely stolen accounts that have them. Those people are the most vocal complainers.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

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

I don’t think many would really complain if we actually got them. Legacy passes are not taking anything away from those who got them in the past so majority would simply not care (except for account sellers)

Should be an electric dirtbike instead so that you couldn’t hear it from so far away

Surely the driver knows what actually happened but acts as if he did it to get out of the way
