    So in game 1 of this North America Summer Skirmish, the stupid purple lightning just planted a huge black and purple cube nw of Paradise on one of the plateaus. Ninja touched it and was hard impulsed away. No explanation from our treasured commentators.

    Because this final week of the summer skirmish is at PAX West, nothing is available until 9pm EST? What the fuck am I supposed to do at work? And the true final isn't until Monday anyways.

    I saw pros yesterday in the skirmish using the roof/pyramid as a peek edit. You have your head through the hole or something and are still protected. Idk, not sober enough to explain it.

    only significant change to me is ability to stack 3 shield pots

    or possibly this:

    Gameplay
    • In the moving storm phases, when the storm reaches its destination, it will cause a surge of energy that destroys player-built structures located on the storm wall.
    it's a big change, can't wait to see how scrims/skirmish matches end now with the storm destroying everything it touches

    We can thank every bitch made streamer for whining their puny dicks off about it. I’ve never known a game so fucking controlled by the celebrities in the community as Fortnite. Can’t wait to abandon this game

    Now they are all bitching about the new Blackout and how the body/head armor is too OP. Bunch of fucking cry babies.

    Sometimes you need weapons in a game that help level out the skill gap, the drum gun was an excellent way to counter build nerds while not having any sort of crazy range so it still requires you carry an AR. The P90 is a joke of a weapon and will not fill that void. Streamers just want the playing field deteriorated to easy pickings for clips.

    Like I’ve said previously, it’s gonna destroy pubg and it’s looking like it will give FN a run for its money. It’s gonna bring back some recognizable faces on twitch and provide some nostalgia with how they’ve built the maps. I watched someone pick up a basketball on the raid portion of the map last night and clean up a kill with it.

    After playing blackout for like an hour (sorry CUtigers I suddenly had other things to tend to) and hearing the drum gun is gone...

    ...I'm back on Fortnite

    I mean, you throw up a pretty mean one by one but you’re not winning any fights against anyone who builds hardcore. I’ve never understood your obsession with the build meta

    Bc its all i have. I definitely suck ass at gunplay.

    I think my biggest downfall happened when damage falloff was added to ARs.

    Bring back the I suck and will rush you way too aggressively without building more than one ramp and get immediately killed meta!

    Your gunplay is fine. You used to be much better with the shotgun but we’ve all took a hit there. I liked the drum gun because I get annoyed at chasing these nerds up to the sky. I’ll just head to the bottom and spray down there build.

    The game was better when building was used moreso to close gaps than in its current state of “Minecraft to the sky and hope your opponent loses interest”. Shit gives me carpal tunnel

    It would be interesting if they limited the number of stacks that could be built vertically

    This is what I've been wanting for the longest time. Not sure how they haven't even tested it with a LTM, because a lot of people request that feature.

    I mean thats what makes the game what it is. Limiting build height really doesnt do anything except pointlessly change one of the core mechanics of the game.

    I think what isn’t getting through to you is that a lot of us enjoyed the building when it was there more for cover and position rather than endless runs to the sky. I don’t think the building should be limited in the base game but I’m all for a separate game type that entertains the idea. Fortnite is Fortnite and the natural progression was always gonna be people outbuilding each other, it’s just, some of us would rather shoot each other

    I made fun of that guy in a Facebook group once because he was being an absolute chode. He threatened me with his twitter army and blocked me. He’s a real one handed cunt
