How Fortnite’s Worst Gimmick Could’ve Been Better
Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 1 is where everything began. Back in 2017, we were introduced to the game, and for some, haven’t stopped playing it since. As basic as the map is, it’s iconic not only for the POIs but for its simplicity as w
The landing spots on this map became iconic by this point and were one of the best maps in the earlier stages of Fortnite. If Epic Games were to have a throwback map, this would be the perfect one to h
When the Dragon Ball crossover arrived in Fortnite, players could obtain the legendary Goku skin, which is bundled with his cloud, Nimbus, and his famed Power Pole. Players can also transform Goku into three different forms: Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan Blue, or Ultra Insti
Have you ever thought about wielding a giant hammer and whacking your opponents with it? The Shockwave Hammer can help you fulfill that dream. It’s essentially a shockwave grenade implemented into a giant hammer. Upon hitting an enemy it launches them through the air while also doing dam
Located in the island’s southern region, Frenzy Fields is spread over a wide area, with farmhouses and barns filled with loot, vending machines, and upgrade workbenches. Essentially, players can find everything they might need to start their matches correctly. Frenzy Fields contains an abundance of weapons and items, including fireflies players can catch to create Fortnite’s Firefly Jar item . The farms also contain several hay piles and dense crop fields players can hide in, either to escape enemies or set up ambus
When craftable weapons are readily available, there’s little point to the player building them. In addition, outside the upgraded bows, which could gain effects like starting fires or scattering explosives, all the craftable weapons were barely different from regular weapons, so crafting them didn’t even feel special. In the end, fortnite News stopped including crafting after Chapter 2, Season 8, having never managed to iron out all of the mechanic’s ki
The bows in Fortnite are one of the weapons that make their grand return. There are a couple of them to choose from but the one you should take priority over is the Cluster Bow. With the cluster bow, upon shooting an arrow not only does it do damage, but it also breaks off into mini explosi
Along with a series of skins that were being released after the Mandalorian was, the Terminator was one of the several skins that Jonesy had brought to Fortnite’s island for support. This skin features the Terminator melted down to its metal pa
Not that there was anything wrong with it, but the earlier seasons of Fortnite were pretty much all-around with the maps. Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 4 is no expectation. While it didn’t really change much up with the landscape other than having Lucky Landing and Dusty Divot, everything felt more detailed than before adding more depth to the g
The best shotgun that’s currently in Fortnite is the Thunder Shotgun. Unlike the Maven Auto Shotgun, The Thunder Shotgun brings the boom and does massive damage to enemies. It does 105 damage to the body and 195.36 to the h
Kratos was yet another skin that was released as part of Fortnite’s Gaming Series outfits, and not too far before the Master Chief skin. The arrival of this outfit and Master Chief allowed console users to essentially play as their differing console-exclusive outfits, as Kratos is to PlayStation as Master Chief is to X
An imposing castle with a small hamlet in its shadow, The Citadel is one of the Fortnite island’s most unique points of interest. Aside from being packed with loot, players can also journey here to challenge The Ageless Champion, an NPC boss, to battle. While this can be a challenging boss fight, defeating the Ageless Champion allows players to add The Ageless Champion’s Ex-Caliber Rifle , a version of the already-devastating Ex-Caliber Rifle with better stats, to their own arsen
Crafting has been absent since Chapter 3 of Fortnite launched, and despite the system having its problems before, it could be reworked into something not only useful, but entertaining. One advantage of the old system was that it was very easy to use, even though the results were underwhelming. Much like Fortnite ‘s shield-restoring jelly beans , crafting could become simple yet effective with some more interesting craftable weap
Having an Alien-themed season was pretty great, but having it also affect some parts of the island was even better. In Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 7, crashed alien ships could be found all over the map and even had some effect on gameplay as you could attack aliens and pick up their weapons, using them on whoever crossed your p
This weapon is one of Fortnite’s hard-hitting Mythic Weapons , making it a powerful addition to any arsenal. However, players will find landing at the Citadel a tough challenge. Aside from the boss, The Citadel is also a highly popular landing spot, with players lining up to battle the boss and battling each other in the process. While it’s a challenge all players should try, a few missteps could easily cost them the ma
