Put the new welcome mat out.

I’m going to go ahead and say how I feel. This is just my personal opinion but from what I have seen, I feel the Fortnite team have made a season where, on reflection, Season 2 will be considered a top 5 of *ALL TIME* contender when it’s over. Bookmark this! 🤝 🔖

Can’t wait to finally play this for real for real! Best team on the planet.

@riftinrobby @JohnThiccamus just a schmear

@JohnThiccamus What does this mean 😭

Alright, to be clear, this is me speaking as a fan and not as a dev rn, but if I could bring one Fortnite character back for some proper closure, it would be The Herald. Time and time again. And I'm not sorry either

@riftinrobby Mine would be Evil Homer.

@TheRock @Dreckerr NO WAY

Meet me in the lobby this Thursday… 3/19 … if you know, you know ~ F 🛡️🗿🛡️

Hey folks, We are about to enter a VERY exciting 48 hour period of time in Fortnite! I wanted to reshare some house rules below, but also just respectfully ask to minimise naming me personally. It’s important to me that you please remember what you are about to experience is a *massive* team effort beyond what you could even imagine, not least the shoulders of giants that the very foundations of videogames are built upon. My first year at Epic Games has allowed me to get to know a team of some of the most talented creative minds you can come across, so I just ask to be respectful and mindful of that 🤝 Otherwise, enjoy the next 48 hours! I love the excitement that Season 2 has and I hope it delivers. Actually, maybe one last reminder - that Season 2 is a start line, not a finish line. We have plenty in-store 🫡 Housekeeping rules as always 🗒️; * Respect others' opinions - we are one community! 💝 * Keep it courteous - mute and block buttons exist! ⛔️ * Share any media - seeing the feedback, helps!" 📸 * Stay focused - keep it Fortnite! 🧠 * We will prioritise - this is still game dev, some may take time ⏰ And - thank you! 🎁

@JustTeddii Even got MY hopes up 😭

Not work related post btw. 🤝

Happy 3:16 day to all those who celebrate! 🍻 Can someone give me a hell yeah?!

Thinking about a podcast. Thinking about a co-host. Anyone?

Guys i think i main mo and krill in deadlock. uh oh

@TylerDDiaz This isn't even a question, down with Fish!!! 🐙 GANG

🐠 vs 🦑

@KeifyChrist Auto shotguns would be particularly strong, so it needed to be tuned with that in mind). Lots of things looked at or adjusted that weren't necessarily imbalanced but became way too centralizing or unfun - Riftjector was cool but got old after a few weeks, things like that.

@KeifyChrist I've been around since before FN Battle Royale existed :) Augments went through similar processes as most of our features; combination of internal metrics, sentiment, "fun factor", how they played with each other and whatever was live at the time (ex - Shotgun Striker + stronger

Hope y'all had fun with the last two Power Hours of the season, and that the Wild Weeks have been enjoyable! Glad to listen to any and all feedback around what would make them more interesting, exciting, engaging or anything you want to give me!

@Creeeper_ @TullyAckland What does a proper mobility meta look like to you m You ask 10 players this question, you'll get 10 different answers, in my experience.

@Dreckerr @TullyAckland Bring back proper mobility metas

@KeifyChrist Hit me with your top 5 all time requests :)

@Dreckerr Thats understandable and its really appreciated that the time is taken to do that, really hoping to see possibilities of really unique items coming back even if just for a wild week Thanks for the improvements and communication! <3

@KeifyChrist For sure heard - bringing back older content has it's own set of considerations, mostly testing it against/with the suite of new stuff we have to make sure there are no weird bugs or interactions etc. Will love to absolutely do it in the future, just needs to be scoped!

@Dreckerr Power hours are improving and I hope they improve into next season! Wild weeks are def better than before but I still think they should rlly utilize the idea of items that never rlly get brought back... guided missile, grabatron, chrome, zeus bolt, sprites, nitro, tanks, etc

@evankinney @archer_fortnite

@archer_fortnite sorry bout that, edge case in the vector math i wrote to pick teleport candidates that never came up in testing 😭

ty everyone who came to the event!... even know the game teleported me so far away that i didnt even see it

As with @JustTeddii - all I ask is that we keep it respectful 🫡
