Fortnite BR

[grimace]

A few thoughts regarding my experience with Fortnite:

• I play solo
• I reach final 10
• then the game is no longer a fun FPS

The resource gathering and "fort" building in the end doesn't inspire excitement in me like pubg does.

(I don't play pubg because the game is not optimized yet and runs laggy. I can reach top 10 and then get shot in the head.)

tldr: I'm a casual battle royaler and play occassionally

Skips Google Play on Android, like a boss: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/...e-on-android-doesnt-use-google-play-confirmed

Why not just use the pre-existing store instead of making players jump through hoops?

On open platforms like PC, Mac, and Android, Epic's goal is to bring its games directly to customers. We believe gamers will benefit from competition among software sources on Android. Competition among services gives consumers lots of great choices and enables the best to succeed based on merit.

Is this just a way for Epic to keep the 30 per cent that Google would take if you were on Play?

Avoiding the 30 per cent "store tax" is a part of Epic's motivation. It's a high cost in a world where game developers' 70 per cent must cover all the cost of developing, operating, and supporting their games. And it's disproportionate to the cost of the services these stores perform, such as payment processing, download bandwidth, and customer service. We're intimately familiar with these costs from our experience operating Fortnite as a direct-to-customer service on PC and Mac.

Btw, a bit old news but Tim Sweeney is now a billionaire: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/fortnite-studio-founder-is-now-a-billionaire-repor/1100-6460747/

Can't blame them, and since Fortnite is so big they WILL get away with it.

The game has potential to be pretty good. The main problem is feedback the game gets is filled with 99% absolute worst kind of casuals that have no fucking clue and just spams forums/reddit with dumb shit while down-voting any good balancing suggestions.

Cartoony graphics isn't a style choice, it is a really smart optimization choice as they age and run 100000000x better then realistic counterparts. If WOW didn't do what they did they game would be unbearably ugly today (14 years later). No one cares about your not manly/adult enough insecurities

The main problem with building is you can build 30 walls PER MATERIAL which is unbelievably poorly thought out. If everyone had the same small amount of materials to build a few things, building could be way more interesting in terms of decision making. Right now it is just flat out obnoxiously broken braindead mechanic that allows baddies to win games. I think trump funded this game tbh.

Another thing that allows baddies to win game is the fact that basically the only gun until recently that was remotely viable was shotgun which is now supplemented with smg. Everything else is complete rng pray and spray bullshit no matter how much you stand still, crouch, and clench your buttcheeks.

In short it follows the trend of throwing 1000x features, guns, heroes at a game every month instead of sitting down and making solid balanced core mechanics and narrowing the gap between baddies and skilled players so that shitters can occasionally win and feel good about themselves.

I did, but recently I haven't played much. I was playing way more in Seasons 5, 6 & 7, but got burned out and played very little in Season 8.

And I love my RPG's but a good one only gets made about once a decade so I need to jump into other genres

That's fine. But you know, you can always play good games from other genres.

This game any good? I need something mindless to help me unwind, and I got bored with overwatch last year. The graphics make me think it'll run fine on my old RoG laptop rig.

I'm leery about building shit, I just want mindless gunz and killing

 

[Astral Rag]

Yes it's great. Buy the Deluxe Edition now.

The game requires a lot of thinking, if you just want mindless fun then you will be frustrated.

I really feel for the workers, it must suck to join this industry in hopes of making kaiju vs mecha games, only to animate Youtube e-celebs dances for months on end.

pewdiepie is getting old

He looks like an ordinary 30 year old Swede, for example, Basshunter.



Btw, are you getting younger? I'm almost 40 yo myself and in ten years or so I might even be 50 like Crispy.

There's now a black hole on the screen with random numbers popping once in a while.

My dad would have beat my ass if he ever saw me get that worked up about a videogame. In fact, he did several times, hence why I don't anymore.
