Fortnite: Battle Royale |OT| 100 Players on Epic Battlegrounds

Yeah the pregame wait time seems weird if you already have 100. If they need to pee or something let them just stay on the plane. They have a minute to jump.
Lol Same complaint I have in PUBG. Just launch theme already once you hit 100.

I just died like 2 steps away from safe zone feelsbadman
They said they changed it so the circle doesn't spawn the opposite side as often, yet that is just what happened yet again lol

How is this so far compared to PUBG?
Pre-game is such a huge waste of time. There's not even enough guns and stuff to fuck around with. The area should be flooded with stuff so you can try it out. Makes no sense.
Also, wow, melee is fucking trash unless there's some hidden mechanic. 11 damage a hit with the pickaxe means you're dead if that person has even the worst gun and aim.

Simpler for sure.
I love it though. Matches are quick, and gun play feels great to me.
Still early access though. Lots of stuff that needs to be in there, but a GREAT foundation. I have a hankering to constantly play.
I wouldn't compare this to PUBG. PUBG is much more robust right now. More guns, attachments, bigger map, etc.

Haven't played pubg but i found this fun
Some stuff seems hitscan while others are actually projectile based. Definitely felt like there was travel time with the sniper rifle.
Oooooookay, this is pure bullshit. Dying because of lag is the worst thing ever. Placing #2 because of that is even worse. Just look at that: http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/TheKeyPit/video/37077897

My teammate and I had a lot of fun in squad mode. Map could be a bit bigger.

Five games and I'm dying within three minutes. Guess Battle Royale is too tough for me.

I made it to 4th place twice. Thats pretty good 👍
Sometimes its okay to be a coward in these games.
Id really like to get a Party going for this game. If anyone wants to add me for this, Im JestorJoust on PSN

You have to lead with snipers, they travel slow.
The rifles and other standard weapons are hitscan I believe.
So I see a menu for keyboard support. Does this work for PS4? Also is BR crossplay with PC or just PVE?

Yeah, I feel like the map needs to be bigger. Feels too claustrophobic. Like, I cant land in a house without someone next to me. Almost impossible.
Totally down to party up with some gaffers. Give me like 5 min.
edit: actually, never mind, need sleep. Have a huge headache.
Did the build into the sky thing again. The other guy was so confused. Eventually it just shrinks so small you can't avoid the storm. Guess I had slightly more health than the other player since I won lol.
Won't do that again though. Just wanter to see how small the circle would go.

Bigger maps are coming.
Nice to see we got a decent thread going here with lots of people playing! Going to jump on now myself and give this a go.

I don't mind dying but I wish it didn't take so long to get into another match. Like if they could cut down the lobby time, that would be great.
Very frustrating to spend the whole game collecting gear and blasting a person with 3 shotgun shells for them to turn and put one rifle round into me and back to the beginning I go.

man i am shit at this game.
one hour impressions: upper level gameplay looks interesting. i wish this game had a little more soul. needs vehicles/those crates they'll add.
edit: to clarify "soul," more varied audio design. custom characters. custom celebrations. thorough stats. a victory screen. so far it seems very unceremonious, and despite the fun visuals, that isn't reflected in the overall design. still it's free and early access so

Ok, thanks.
Keep forgetting this game is early access and BR literally just launched a week ago, lol.

Had some really intense matches that left me in the lower teens when I died. Not bad, not bad at all. For those of you wondering how to get to the top....avoid fighting unless you have to. Keep clear of the riff Raff, stick and move, Bob and weave, shuck and jive if you have to, just keep running and be aware of your surroundings. And check houses if you have the chance, obviously.

Looks like it. Sacriel was running in the 4 man queue as a duo and later a trio. Just don't push the option to fill the group out and you should be able to play as three.
Sadly,this type of mode may not be for me. I wait 2 minutes for match making, 2 minutes in lobby and then die a minute in or run around and only see people too far away. Maybe I am just not good but the time turns me off.
For what it's worth I have not played PUBG but was looking forward to it whenever it comes to PS4

Shotguns are pretty useless in this game.

Yesterday they were OP. Did they nerf with the patch?
Game is great in a team. It's a little harder to keep everyone stocked with ammo but the trade-off is you don't get the random/unavoidable deaths, so games are a bit more consistent. The game really lends itself to teamwork too, voice chat is a must.
Played 5-6 games, we messed up the start of most of them but managed to get 1 win and reached the final 4 in another. Squad finale seems even more hectic than solo, with massive forts appearing out of nowhere.

My first two games I died almost instantly, took me a while to get used to what items to take, how guns handle, where to go at the start etc. The first 3 minutes of the game are the hardest (until the very end).
Rofl no they didn't nerf them. People just overreacting.

I know what you mean because sometimes they seem to do nothing, especially the pump action with its slow rate of fire. They're extremely powerful at close range but you have to be more accurate than you'd expect.

Ah, no? I'm 1-2 shotting everyone with it.

The construction gets insane in squad mode
Had one instance where we needed to cross a valley, so the team built a scary fast bridge across, while two poor enemies were scurrying away in fear
2 of us built, the other 2 kept the enemies under fire
Ha I've done this. I tried doing it across the lake too but ran out of wood and fell off the end before I realised.

If a person has a shield it'll do nothing in terms of damage is my main issue with it, compared to the other guns which tear through shields super easy.
Lol! Shotties kill almost instantly in confined places.
