Added plus...they play the old Fortnite music in between matches. I miss it!

Nickmercs is a commentator this week and is pretty entertaining.

I quit carrying shotguns a while back. They are useless to my fighting style.

If you have high ground and are shooting down, a shotgun is great (more likely for a headshot), but otherwise it is better to use a drum gun or SMG.

They're useless to anyone's fighting style that wants to have a chance

No kidding. Even pistols are better than shotguns, but the rate of fire of a drum gun or smg can't be beat.

The heavy shotguns are still legit. Won around 15 games yesterday and for most of those wins I always ended with at least a purple heavy in my inventory. I wish pistols would get changed up a bit and you actually were enticed to keep them past the initial landing. Revolvers and deagles specifically are pretty terrible unless you're just memeing around.

I got my first solo victory just now. On Switch, of course. The competition seems so much weaker on the Switch.

I've found that when I play in the switch the competition is not as good. I'm sittingduck02 if you want to add me. What's your id?

What's up with the rifts disappearing?

I used to be able to drop into Greasy or Paradise, loot, and rift out but now they are gone.

I saw some guys use rifts this morning. Maybe they are starting to phase them out. I need the carts to come back so I can finish the weekly challenges.

I agree to a disagree. I've definitely gotten my fair share of kills with the revolver and the DEagle. I like them from about the same distance as the AR. You can get a quick hit with them and immediately switch to the AR to finish it up. Works very well IF you have the room in your inventory.

My normal rift patterns are still there.
I work the ones by the adobe village SW of paradise to the oasis by the bridge west of paradise.
Or I really like going far NE by the ice cream truck to the one just north of tomato to the one by dusty. That can move you 2/3 of the map in about 1 minute.

This is absolutely hilarious. Around the 6:25 mark had me laughing so hard. You have to watch the beginning to truly appreciate it though. FIDO, this is something I feel Drizzy would do to us in a heartbeat...

I was just getting on to post the same video!! Sypherpk Noob Commentaries are awesome!

Go easy on Drizzy. He would never do that to us because then he wouldn't have anyway of picking up the Scar from our still warm corpse.

You guys just thought I was busy working at nights/at the lake this weekend.

I'm extending the playing ban for such hateful comments!!

I finally picked this game up. Any tips that don't involve reading all 23 pages of this thing?

Update dropping tomorrow. Hopefully we get some damn order restored to the balancing. Game is extremely frustrating to play right now.

What platform are you on?

I'd recommend watching the streamers as mentioned, also try to run squads or duos with experienced folks that have a little patience. Practice building in playground.

It seems as though more and more people are starting to use the default skin. I guess to trap people into thinking they aren't good so they play aggressive and make mistakes.

Yeah, I don't get it. Spend money on a free game to not use the skins? Why even do the battle pass? So you can get lame dances? Like I said... I don't get it...

It's pretty simple... bought the battle pass once a few seasons ago when I first started because I like to support good freemum games and I wanted the progression system. Turns out there are actually benefits to using the default skin. In a competitive game why not use every advantage you can?

So do you grind challenges or since you don't care about skins, emotes, or bling, do you only play for wins?

We'll switch to no skins when we're playing poorly as punishment.

If that was the case for me, I'd never get out of no-skins lol

I've banished myself to the Sparkle Specialist a few times.

I have to say though, sometimes it is hard to play with an OG skin like the black knight. I feel I have a responsibility to play better and try to maintain the respected reputation of the skin. Then I blow myself up with a sticky grenade!!? Back to Mrs Sparkle.

I feel like people target you more if you're a no skin. I bought the battle pass once and then earn enough v bucks throughout the season to get the next battle pass

It was truly spectacular to watch. Looking back on it, it is similar to when your drunk friend asks you to hold their beer so they can do something miraculous, but then end up falling flat on their face. Good times...

Zip/FIDO have permanently banished me to the no-skin for my play.

I missed out last night because it took 1.5 hours to download the update.

Yea sure I'll still grind challenges. It's fun to still have progression of some sort even if it is just a worthless little XP bar and 95% of the rewards I'll never use. Occasionally I'll throw on a skin but if we are tryharding for wins I'm going noskin every time.
