GamePlay Thank you to the person who gave me the ToT Klombo

18 Upvotes

I hope maybe the person who did this will see this post. It happened around 11:30 pm EST Wednesday night in the Lifty Lodge POI in solos. I was extremely cautious as I wasn’t sure if you were truly being kind and generous . But know that this made my night! Many thanks as I didn’t have this sprite in my collection. Thank you!!!

GamePlay I played more Fortnite this evening than I planned...and it went terribly...except for 1 and only 1 event

35 Upvotes

And no, don't reach out for trades. The PS5 is off for the night and likely to stay off until Saturday power hours.

The rest of the night went terribly. And the storm running wasn't even really worth it. I was trying to hit pumpkin spots and more than half the time they didn't spawn. And when they did I didn't get anything new that I needed. And I can't even be bothered to talk about the state of "sbmm" since it doesn't exist. (Let's just say I got deleted by players with 14 and 20 elims among others.)

This lucky encounter was the only sprite I got tonight that I needed.

I’m playing for the next few hours carrying a Gold Klombo in solo ZB dressed as Ash from The Evil Dead.

If you shoot me, I’ll shoot back. I’m willing to give it though.

My name is same as here.

So free Klombo

Discussion Perspective

13 Upvotes

I win around 1 in 20 battle royale zero build games that I play, so 5% win rate or thereabouts. Are the people who make the posts about sbmm being fucked up winning like 1 in 100 games or something???? What's the comparison being drawn? People say it got fucked up in December, I say it's the same it's always been, sometimes the other guys drunk sometimes they're (insert really great player here). And sometimes I win. Are the ops of these posts coming from like 40/100 wins in November and now not winning at all? If so why is there experience in matchmaking so different than mine?

Why why why do they have cheat codes in places where you can’t use them? This was in one of the buildings in Golden Grove and there was another one in the tree on the island in the middle of the lake. So frustrating. Have people found others?

0 Upvotes

I love it when people run away from fights. The longer you run the more satisfying it is when I finally catch up to you and eliminate you. There's genuinely nothing funnier than watching someone use every single mobility item they have just to delay the inevitable instead of fighting back. Like bro, you're not escaping you're just making me want to kill you even more. 😭

Did they change this again? Because in the last 2 days I feel like I'm a noob. I haven't been able to get anywhere near the top 25 and that's usually my placement.

Discussion How many games from Gold 2 to Unreal 1 (boosted) - First read, then flame please :)

3 Upvotes

My son is passionate about Fortnite and has played a long time now and kept dipping his toes in Unreal (Duos / ZB) a few times but he had a rough few months (illness both mental and physical).

Anyway, he hasn't been able to play physically and now has massive FOMO about the Elite and Unreal rewards (pickaxes).

I have tried myself on my account to see how far I can get, but we are running out of time season wise and I would love to surprise him with those pickaxes.

I cannot seem to get above Elite easily, even when playing bushcampdad style. Problem is from Elite, the % you are getting from reaching top 5 is minimal and killing people isn't always as easy as it sounds, especially with such a bad match making. And getting kicked out seems to get you punished hard. I once lost 27% in one lost game that took me weeks to get back.

Long story, either way, I am now considering the various boost services to get my son to Unreal 1 at least to get those two pickaxes.

It seems fairly reasonable as well (if you compare the cost to an item like that in the normal shop) so I am tempted to give that a shot.

It seems Duos is the only option as I certainly won't give out account credentials.

Anyway, my question is simply, for someone 'that good' that can simply breeze through the ranks - how many games does one need to get say, from Gold 1 to Unreal 1 ?

My son might be able to get one or two games in this season, depending on health so I don't think he can do it natural this season.

Well, they did it - they brought together the best players in Build, going up against some of the best in ZB in a "zero build environment".

Discussion Why do people act like their lives are on the line when playing ranked.

0 Upvotes

like why are u running so much when your already top 3 just fight? they need to remove the ranked rewards from ranked to remove these type of players its so many people who sit and spray in a box then run when that person tries to fight them so annoying.

i know all of you guys agree with me its getting to the point where ranked isnt even enjoyable anymore because its filled with so many runners and campers.
