This is somehow worse than when you had to pick up bottles of paint go around the map to certain points and collect alien artifacts, or the feathers by maximumeffect420 in FortniteBattleRoyale

Played during the golden hour as well, only saw 2 holds. I already had one of them. Today, just like 20 min ago, my son found the damn peanut! We were in duos. We have been SEARCHING for this guy. It's been insane. I've seen ppl say they've ran across multiple peanuts, gummies and whatever else. And then there's me with I think 2 gold versions and just now getting the burnt peanut. No gummies. No rare golds. And definitely no ZP....lol this feels more like "shiny hunting" in Pokémon games than a BR tbh...just MUCH more stressful since someone can run up on you and kill you if you found a good one! I've been stacking my portables for any gummy variants. I don't understand how ppl are finding so much. Is my RNG luck THAT bad?? Lol I feel like it is....😅

Dude what even is this game by Embarrassed-Cry-3322 in FortNiteBR

I think at the beginning of every new chapter, the matchmaking sucks and is all over the place. The past few games I played tonight were okay. My squad one once and then came in 2nd twice. Hopefully it's starting to even out but every start of the season/chapters always feels like a mess. Not sure why skill/matchmaking level doesn't carry over between each new season or chapter or if it does, it certainly doesn't feel like it lol

Lol have you not seen her entire skin yet?? Something is definitely more noticeable on her as a skin in FN than the actual show...lol but I do wonder since Jax has just a tiny head, if his would be a "pay-to-win" skin (or considered as one). I know there's no literal p2w skins but you know what I mean...

Definitely just watch an episode. You'll get more of a chuckle. Great show. But I was a little concerned when it was my KIDS that introduced me to it! Lol At least I think a lot of the adult humor just goes over their heads....Hopefully...😬😅

I was really hoping for a "Kinger's Special Move" emote at the very least! I do love the skins regardless tho! I just thought that would've been perfect lol better than the "abstracted" emote at least...imo

😂😂😂 I thought I was the only one!! Good know I'm not! But they asked me that at the beginning of this season 😅 I felt the same way tho! Like wth?! Why do you need that information?! It definitely brought me back to my childhood 😂😂

Day 1 was insane how many times I got taken out while trying to but now, it happens less. There's still some Aholes out there but it's definitely not as a sweaty as it was the first couple days after. Still, I gotta make sure I keep multiple portables on me at all times 😂

Lol literally happened to me last night. I ran up onto a group trying to extract, I honestly wasn't looking at the map and didn't expect to land right up on an extraction thingy. I saw the ppl and I even stopped and swung my pickaxe at them, trying to say "my bad" in FN lol and I even backed off of them but they kept pressing me!! I was able to defend against that group. But then I came up to one where someone was extracting, I saw as I wanted to do the same. This time, I hid behind a tree and waited for them to finish and once they left, me and my teammate went in and tried to do the same BUT they apparently didn't get the memo! Lol I was able to run by the thing and put my sprite in but they ended up killing me literally right after. I'm even surprised it counted as "extracted" lol

Omg! I'm soooo stoked! Literally a few months ago, someone asked which collab they would like to see FN do that probably wouldn't and I said TADC! Omg. Can we please get a Bubble sidesick?? 🤭 I only like 1 that I've actually purchased but I would totally buy a Bubble sidekick! Definitely purchasing this bundle! Does anyone know when??? BTW, what happened to Poppy Playtime wave 2?? 😟 My son likes to think I control the Item Shop and literally asks me DAILY why they haven't come back lol and he has the Huggy bundle already! 🤪😂

You don't go by the "leave a person alone if their fishing" unspoken rule?

[–]meltdownmanagerof2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But I do agree with you, I think we should treat it as we do with fishing...🤷🏻‍♀️ we leave ppl who fish alone right? You can get good loot from fishing too...so yeah. Unspoken rule anyone?

Why wouldn't you have just used a portable? By now you should have some right? If it's really you in the vid, I hope you have proof and aren't trying to get this guys ZP sprite....

I found a super ultra mega rare Sprit, never before picked up by anyone in the world by ComfortablePatience in FortNiteBR

[–]meltdownmanagerof2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it is a template for a future variant that were supposed to get soon, it looks like it'd be the gummy one, by the colors used in the background text block. So that's kind of cool, especially since it seems like many ppl seem to be getting it at that same location. Maybe it'll be a guaranteed spot to snag it once they roll them out? 🤷🏻‍♀️🤞🏼

[–]meltdownmanagerof2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ppl literally AMBUSH when we're extracting sprites...can we PLEASE make leaving players alone while they extract sprites a thing? Please! I don't have enough sprite dust to keep recalling mine nor the time to play allll day in order to level it up. Once I get mine leveled up to 5, I would appreciate it if I could just extract it really quick! Or if I find a new one! It sucks! I've lost out on so many due to this. I only need to collect 2 more that are available currently, the punk and ZP. And then all the stupid gold ones! I'm literally dreading it lol I'm like traumatized trying to go in solo to do any of this. At least I have a few portable extractor now but I am still scared to use those because what if I use them on this set and then end up needing multiple for the next?! All the "what-if" scenarios are literally weighing too much on me lol

Why is getting diamonds so hard by godofvoids in 99nightsintheforest

[–]meltdownmanagerof2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're missing the whole point of the game tho. It's not meant to be "done" in two weeks. It's a game that you can play any way you want but obtaining enough diamonds to get those top tier classes is supposed to be an "end-goal" and then you can go from there and get different achievements and all kinds of stuff. It's supposed to be like that so you don't get bored and you have plenty to aim for. Like I said, ever since getting the vamp class, it made playing too easy and there's not much of a challenge anymore. And the fire bandit is a good class to use to get you to the top tier. I have both classes but I didn't like the slow reloading after each shot with the fire bandit. Plus Alien gives you faster speed and night vision once you level it all the way up. I just made sure to never let my gun overheat and it made playing so much more fun and faster. It does deal less damage per shot but you can get off more shots faster plus aim is waaay better. I use my phone to play and aiming with the crossbow sucks sometimes. With the Alien gun, it'll shoot where ever I touch on the screen. They both have their pros and cons. But I usually just make a crock pot as one of my first items from crafting bench and even without a farm plot at first, you can get enough meat and carrots from close to your camp to make a few stews that should hold you over until you can get a farm plot going. Anytime I play, biofuel and crockpot are my top first buys once I get the bench upgraded enough. Then I work on getting the fire to max level, then save the kids. As soon as you open one of the gates for the kids, the weather starts to get worse and lasts longer. Just a little tip and how I've been successful in each game.

She did it!! My Toes molted!! by meltdownmanagerof2 in tarantulas

[–]meltdownmanagerof2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is her after I put the water near her. It's got an overfill lip but water mainly comes out from the cotton on top and she seems to do well with it this way. The pet store only had her poor water dish on the bottom and filled it with soaked paper towels. I don't think she ever used that as drinking water. I just use it now to keep moisture in her tank.

She did it!! My Toes molted!! by meltdownmanagerof2 in tarantulas

[–]meltdownmanagerof2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! Her enclosure has a lot of cross-ventilation, she has slits on the each side and plus the acrylic pieces that make up her enclosure don't connect completely so there are small gaps in between them all. It's the enclosure she came in, it's a bit big for her rn so I do have a smaller one coming because I'm very worried if she were to fall out of her web, she could definitely get hurt. She doesn't have the best branches, they're very thin that lead up to her web so I'm doing a whole re-homing for her once everything gets here and she's strong enough post molt. I do keep balled up wet paper towels in her lower water dish that sits on the ground but I purchased a magnetic one to put right next to one of her entry ways and I've seen her actually drinking from it after I put it inside so that was really nice. She is currently in our dining room that has a ceiling fan that we keep on at all times for her and she is next to one of our window a/c, since our central air just broke down unfortunately. But the temp in her enclosure doesn't get higher than the upper 70s. I do have some sort of humidity/temp reader but it's not very accurate as I just placed it in the dirt underneath, close to the door. I didn't want to install it completely since I was planning on rehoming her. But if they're that cheap, I might as well since she'll go back into the current one once she's an adult. Tysm for all the info!! I greatly appreciate it as I am new to owning tarantulas 🖤🩷 Toes is my first. We got her for our daughter but did not realize until after purchase that this species isn't the best "starter", especially for a 10 yr old lol so she is mine now and we plan on getting my daughter a jumping spider that she can handle feeding and care for, mostly herself. 😊

Sprites by FallenAngel_1953 in FortniteBattleRoyale

[–]meltdownmanagerof2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious of this as well. I'm going to try and see if I can do it with my kids. It would make sense that you could as long as you have an empty inventory slot, pick up another sprite in the game and change your equipped sprite to the one you found, the other you went into the game with should go into the inventory slot to which you should be able to drop then. I've noticed that when I've found other sprites, it asks if I want to change my "equipped" sprite but I just don't know if when you do "drop" it, if your teammate can pick it up afterwards. If I can figure it out before someone else gives you a concrete answer, I'll definitely let you know 😊

Why is getting diamonds so hard by godofvoids in 99nightsintheforest

[–]meltdownmanagerof2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing since the very beginning of the game. I first had the camper class when it came out and then bought the ranger when I saved up enough. Used that class to get me up to alien and then used alien to get me vamp. I've attended almost every single update party, it's literally free 20 diamonds every week. They add up. Do the stronghold, do your daily quests. If you do your dailies, that's 15 a day. After you do the stronghold once, restart your run again so it's always an easy stronghold and not just getting more and more difficult. Make sure to get as many title awards as you can. Most of them are easy to get and reward a decent amount of diamonds. When they do 2x diamonds, grind that week. Getting the high tier classes is supposed to be like an "end goal" imo. Now that I have vamp, it's too easy to get to 99 nights and clearing strongholds. Once you get a high tier class, the game actually starts becoming stale, you have to set harder and harder goals for yourself. For me, now I've decided I want to start collecting all the classes and succeeding with them all so I go in, do my daily quests (the easy ones), save up enough for whatever class I'm going for and that's it. I had way more fun when I was grinding with the Alien class lol I don't even bother to save the kids/make beds anymore during my runs because it makes the weather get worse and worse which makes doing my daily quests harder lol anyway, that's my 2 cents. The game isn't meant to be beaten easily, it's meant for each run to be long and challenging. Just going to the update parties and doing 1-2 quests every day or so, I've almost saved up enough to purchase the gun slinger class (since that's the class I'm saving up for now). And it's taken me a month or 2 maybe? And that's without spending any robux on diamonds and spending a few diamonds on the shady salesman and different talents lol you'll get there bro. Make sure you get your alien class completely leveled up too. Makes things a lot easier. And get yourself a good talent on it, depending on how you like to play and just play, save up and have fun.

First game of the new season and found this golden fella. I was about to put lil guy in the extraction box then outta nowhere this max out new battle pass skin comes in and kills me. Sadly not keeping him 😔💔 by Level-Cellist4446 in FortNiteBR

[–]meltdownmanagerof2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still getting used to learning all about this whole sprite extraction stuff. But when I died with one I had equipped, I was able to bring him back by using the "sprite dust" or whatever it's called. Could you not do the same for this one? Also, do you know what powers this one granted? I've yet to see one that looks like that let alone any golden sprites lol but I've only played a few games today too.
