Many months ago we set out to take Fortnite back to its Battle Royale roots - where every match would feel different, to give the game a quality of life update, and respect what has made Fortnite, Fortnite. I’m left both in awe and hugely proud of this team, and while the new Chapter is only just beginning - it’s great to start it by seeing such positivity from the community. Thank you for the feedback, we’re working our way through all of it - here’s to the future 🫡 🤝

Yesterday, October 29th, was Call of Duty's 22nd birthday. The very first CoD was released on PC. What was the first CoD you played?

My community has provided a ton of feedback pertaining to the latest Fortnite Ballistic update! Here is a full overview of my personal feedback as well as feedback from my community! 1. Movement As I mentioned in my prior post the movement in this current update of Fortnite Ballistic feels choppy, slower, and less responsive. The biggest change that allows you to maintain higher accuracy while moving / sliding appears to significantly decrease the ADS speed on weapons compared to what the ADS speed was before. It also feels like the recoil patterns have been shifted across all weapons due to this change. Some people in the community feel as though this change (allowing high accuracy while moving) is reducing the skill gap as players don’t have to be as thoughtful for when to use movement and when not to (for long / mid / close range gunfights). I personally think that the movement before the update (minus the blurry optic) felt better. Even though you had reduced accuracy while moving it felt as though if you mastered the timing and recoil compensation for shooting while sliding you would be able to win the fight. The removal of a blurry optic while moving is a nice touch that I think is largely appreciated across the community. Overall, the community appears to miss the old movement system as it seems to have been snappier, faster, smoother, and even more responsive. Some members in the community are also mentioning how the hit reg when shooting while moving (and even not moving) has been worse since the movement changes. I have also experienced some of this myself. I would also mention that I think movement is the most talked about topic from the update. 2. Sniper Changes The latest update significantly decreased the ADS speed for the snipers. I was personally devastated by this change because I love combining a highly aggressive play-style (movement + sliding) with the reaper sniper 😭 but after this change I barely even want to run the sniper anymore. Many people have said that the sniper play-style has shifted from run and gun to camp and hard-scope due to this change. A lot of people have said that this greatly took the fun out of sniping and I agree to a large extent but I also understand why a change was made (one of the most powerful weapons in the game). However, I also feel like if you have the skill to combine movement / sliding / quick scoping and still hit your shots you should be rewarded for that. It also makes for some amazing clips 🤩 many people really miss the overall feel of the snipers. 3. Gadget Changes: I honestly have not heard a ton of feedback regarding the Wall gadget. I personally think it’s an amazing gadget that changes the game and opens up for so many 200IQ plays. I would assume that some changes will be introduced at some point because it is super powerful and has already been banned for use in private community ran tourneys because of this. The med mist gadget change is a big one and there has been lots of different feedback regarding that. Some people feel as though this change (max 50 health and slower heal rate) makes the gadget almost useless as +50 health isn’t the most advantageous and it takes way longer to heal a player. Some people have said that it would be the equivalent of having a chug splash utility that would heal for +25 health (2 times) that all players could buy instead of a gadget. Some players have shifted gadget choices because of this change. More feedback in the thread below ⬇️

The latest Fortnite Ballistic update is incredible! - Textured Hammer Fall Map ✅ - New SMG ✅ - New Wall Gadget ✅ - Glitches already being fixed ✅ The biggest piece of feedback I have is regarding the movement. I feel like The slight change in movement / recoil when sliding and shooting has impacted how movement / recoil feels as a whole. The movement before the update just felt snappier and faster. It almost feels like there are slight delays now because of the reconfiguration of movement to allow for reduced recoil when shooting / aiming mid slide. This change in recoil feels different across the board with all weapons even when standing still and shooting. Has anyone else noticed the same thing?

@ScarletSprites Same! The cars were poor/mans Voltron. Like GoBots to Transformers. I still have my voltron toy. The big plastic one. The smaller die cast was awesome too.

Did anyone like the cars? I used to get so mad when the Voltron cartoon was on and it wasn’t the lions. The listing never differentiated them.

I am devastated to share that the love of my life, Gizmo, has passed away at the age of 17. We shared so many memories and storm chasing adventures together especially over the last 15 years. Gizmo chased over 200 tornadoes, category 5 hurricanes, and loved me unconditionally through some very hard times across hundreds of miles. We chased through the pandemic on fast-food living out of the Subaru. She beat cancer, ticks, flash floods, and was inside of a tornado with a broken leg / peg leg cast. She visited 48 states, dozens of National Parks, three Canadian provinces and was loved by many storm chasers. This will be a very difficult time

@anim_xander Ah yes, I get it. Tough to sell for sure. I think lowering hand and raising both elbows might help.

I am incredibly hyped for the new Superman movie which seems to bring back joy and wonder to the character. James Gunn appears to be prioritizing actor chemistry and fun. Can’t wait!
