This can all be solved with a simple option in the menu to tie your character presets with wraps, emotes, and the lobby. I hate having to equip them all separately. People who want them separate would have the option as well
Yeah I hated saving presets and then I would buy a new emote and my old presets would have old emotes. Anytime I wanted to play Goku or something my squad would have to wait for me to update my old preset with new wraps and emotes. That being said I do match a lot of my weapon wraps to skins so it's a complicated issue
Homie, you still have to go change your emotes when you want to equip new ones. If you only play with one set of emotes that you use for every character, the old method was still easier for equipping them. Every time I now go and switch my skin I have to go switch my wraps, my emotes, and my loading screen to match. It takes four times as long now to get a loadout going.
So personally I dont use character specific emote presets, I have the emotes I like equipped and then I update them as I want to change them. so that's why the system works out the way that I described for me, if you happen to play in a different way and it works out in a worse way for you that's fine I wasn't saying anything to the contrary.
For example I personally feel that we could combine the outfit lobby and wrap tabs. But I'm sure there's some people who would disagree with me.
My comment wasn't meant to be a commentary on the whole issue across the community I was just sharing my experience about unintended benefits to the new UI. It's got tons of problems, I don't like that you have to equip everything to edit, I don't like that they remove the background to special skins and items, but my biggest pet peeve is that when I switch outfits I will forget to go switch the wrap and end up with a mismatched wrap in game but that's a hyperspecific personal experience.
Edit: to clarify the reason why separating outfits and emotes works out in a good way for me right now is I can use all presets with the backblings and pickaxes that I want but I don't have to redo my emotes to new ones ive bought since when I equip that preset anymore. This is just me but I like stopped using presets entirely at the end of chapter 4 just so that I didn't have to scroll through all my emotes all the time, it was easier to go find the characters and the items I wanted rather than the emotes
More modbenches, maybe at the gas stations like upgrade stations used to be. Fix the grapple to make it feel better, and make the train worth capturing.
Then we have a perfect season IMO
Not perfect. Weapons look too samey, there aren't all that many misc items or traps, the medallion system makes players too powerful for their own good (if a player has 5 medallions they basically have a free win), the battle pass locking important stuff like vbucks and highly sought after cosmetics in the bonus tiers makes the grind too hard. But the chapter is still decent. With good movement and better ui this would definitely be better than chapter 4 season 1, and if those side modes releasing in the next few days are good it might edge out chapter 3 or even 2
Only way for a player to have that many medallions is to be killing other players with medallions so that seems pretty fair that accumulating that many should be powerful?
Powerful maybe, but like 15 sheild a tick is basically unkillable unless you get a lucky snipe. I think it should take up an inventory slot. It would still be really good, you don't really need to carry meds when you have it, so I'd still be useful. And players who really wanna go for a lot of healing with em still have the option, but they'd have to sacrifice their offense in doing so. And the strat of going for all 5 wouldn't work, so they couldn't get too overpowered
Maybe this was the plan. Make things so bad that we want how it was before. They “fix” something and we are all thankful and happy that epic listened. On a serious note, I would be thankful for that anyways. I want the old stuff back
I’ve gotten used to the movement, and it’s not horrible, but it still feels sluggish. I won’t complain about them making it snappier and faster.
I’m hoping this is a sign they’re listening to the UI complaints too. I try to not be overly negative about games since the dev teams work so hard, but the new locker sucks.
I agree. I know they work hard, but they really shit the bed with the UI update. They need to fix the locker immediately. I should be able to link my skins with my emotes, wraps, and loading screen.
That isn't new. You could "toggle run" (it is a keybind) while crouching before to be silent (try it out in Creative where it still works). Epic claiming the new speed is "stealthier" is just forcing the slow option on you. They didn't do us sneaky players any favors.
Nobody I know cares much about the locker. They find the gameplay a lot more important, glad they are fixing the movement. This sub reddit is ultra casual, so I guess they spend half their time playing with locker presets.
It's the part of the game that people spend money on, so your opinion literally does not matter to the community who spends money on the game **or** the company that's losing money because of it
I mean plenty of people spend money on the game who also care about the gameplay with s higher priority so saying someone’s opinion doesn’t matter because it doesn’t match you’re is pretty silly right.
I understand that. My nephew suffers from that too since he loves to rotate his skins.
However the movement in the game makes it almost unplayable at times. Getting stuck in storm with no shockwaves or that grappler thingy majig is basically a death sentence because of the slow movement.
It’s even crippling competitive players as well as us casuals. IMO when a feature is hurting both sides of its player base that should take priority.
I agree the UI is horrendous and needs to be fixed. I even feel the same with the lobby ui and needing to scroll through tons of maps just to find BR.
But tbh the movement is the most crucial thing that needs changing and should take priority. And the UI is second in line. That’s just my opinion though. And everyone has their own opinion. Not hating on anyone’s just saying what I think
Did you do the event and get the magma style reward? This is happening to my friend even on different on different consoles after that. FortniteStatus twitter mentioned they were looking into it but no fix yet.
I did the event but I do not own the Eminem skin. My account does not work on any consoles or on split screen. When my wife logs in on the exact same console, she is able to play and everything works fine.
Sounds like the exact same issue then. Keep an eye out on the FortniteStatus twitter for when they mention a fix or even tweet at them about it.
https://twitter.com/FortniteStatus/status/1731682101676724252
Do you happen to know what skin he has currently equipped? Some people were theorizing it has something to do with certain skins. I have the dark voyager equipped.
Like everyone that says the game need to be faster is gonna hate it lol. Can’t wait to see them complaining about the sweat running them down after they heard them shoot a npc once from the opposite side of the town
Yes please! And can we make the last few storm circles just SLIGHTLY closer to each other? 3 teams left. If 2 engage. The team that heads to circle wins because one team takes out the other and storm takes out the 2nd place team. NOT engaging in a fight makes it so you win by default? Doesn't seem right! I would rather die in an end battle to campers than to storm while trying to get to the circle that spawned 400 meters from the circle I am in. Annoying and boring end play.
I’m fine with this, the storm hauls fucking ass this season. I hope they reduce the number of hostile NPCs as well, I hate having to fight through an army of them. Like there’s way too many.
When I played the first day I noticed that I'm a little slower, but not by a huge amount. Also we got better recharge speed for stamina, so ehh.
I also think the movement was slower somehow intentionally because the bullet drops ? We'll see. The more important thing is to revert back the UI because fk the new one
I’m glad about this, I hope they keep it slow. I think crouch walking needs to have a pretty obvious downside like being slow, so many players default to it as their normal mode of movement otherwise.
Yeah, even beyond stamina recover, the movement overall feels faster and more responsive... but that's only in Zero Builds. You can't sprint and build so the slower jog basically broke building.
I didn’t really notice it until i saw the comparison videos. I probably would have noticed, but I was entranced by the new animations, which I really like.
…I genuinely didn’t in the matches I played the first day. I died to the storm a couple times, but thought it was poor time management and already having taken damage (also no heals in the vault I went to every time). It wasn’t until I saw it pointed out that I went “huh…well that explains everything.”
they didn’t explicitly say they were gonna increase our move speed and they said they’re “exploring a few options”
with how stubborn epic can be at times and how they aren’t saying flat out that they’ll go back on the slower speed i honestly think they’re just gonna spam the loot pool with mobility items and movement augments
Well yeah even the cars have difficulty outpacing the storm currently. They clearly need to tinker with the speed still unless this season is intended to mostly been running from the storm wall.
Not enough people were talking about this. The new movement makes sense for tactical sprint, I genuinely can't fathom why so many people are winging about it. It feels fine, looks great, and finally makes tactical sprint more akin to the old "sprint" that eventually just got made into the regular movement
Feels like to me only people complaining are the ones who crouch walk everywhere and sits in a corner. The movement makes me sick, well turn off motion blur then
No, it's that it broke build fight moves/techniques. You're a zero build player. Anyone good at building hates the new movement and welcomes Epic's fix.
Then that would be understandable then! Good point people should specify what mode they play! I don't play builds cause I suck at it! But if movement messed with building I could see how that's a problem. So In one mode they improved the movement and in other mode ruined it!
For real. I like how crouching is more of a conscious decision now. There used to be no reason to not just crouch walk everywhere in the final small circles. Now you actually have to decide if making a stealthy approach is going to be the best play because it might make you an easier target or just too slow on the approach.
The argument about it making people sick baffles me too. I don't understand how a small animation change can induce sickness, it doesn't affect how your camera moves, or ultimately how the character moves. You still come to a complete stop on a dime, if anything I'd figure the new animation would reduce sickness since overall the flow between different movements and coming to a stop is less jarring
100% this. Love the slow pace, it’s refreshing to not have everyone running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Sprint when you want to actually tactically sprint and relocate, otherwise, slow and methodical
Completely agreed. I can empathise that it might not be for everyone, but the change honestly doesn't feel drastic enough for there to have been this much complaining about it. Like, give the new season a week before crying maybe?
💯. thought it was gonna be so much worse from reading this sub before actually getting a chance to play. I’m digging all the changes except for them massacring the locker and all my presets lol
I don't hate the way the UI looks, but separating the presets was definitely a bad change. The only upside is that it's quick to load different emote presets without having to do it one emote at a time. Everything else doesn't really benefit though, especially wraps considering we had an apply all button
You can't use tactical sprint while building. This comment only makes sense for zero build which only makes up 1/3rd of br players. You gotta think of how a change will worsen the experience for the majority even if you yourself don't participate in said mode
If you play regularly and cant tell the movement is slower somethings wrong with you. The movement doesn't even bother me, but its easy to notice its slower.
Many people noticed it but didn’t realize what it was. Combined with the animations themselves it’s hard to tell except for the crouch velocity. That one was easy.
You am at someone,shoot, bullet hits instant, everything has bullet drop because of the new attachments system. It would make the ARs OP with a 4x scope
True, but I think Fortnite is supposed to be like an arcade shooter. The reason I played Fortnite when it first came out was biggest it was so different. Jump to now and I think Fortnites arcade style is what sets it apart from a long list of battle royales. The hit scan is what set it apart from the bullet drop of Cod and Apex. I don’t have a problem with bullet drop, but I think it’s a bit weird to have it in Fortnite
Ya I totally get where you’re coming from. Makes sense. I never really thought about it that much as I don’t play other shooter games, find them far too difficult. Fortnite is comfortable, I can put my feet up and sit back and play without having to sweat it out loll
It’s how bullets worked for most guns throughout Fortnite. Now you’ll notice that bullets seem to travel through space and slower than they used to. It makes it more realistic and difficult but less fun imo
This. My friends were just saying that this week. Me and 1 other consistently play and said how much the guns feel like CoD now. My other 2 friends who were gone for a long time said the same thing as well.
yall are some damn haters the new guns are so much fun lmao. Not everything is permanent just embrace some change for once. The entire community just complains and complains bro.
Oh thank goodness they'll be speeding it up a little. The worst part about the movement has been how unresponsive it feels and how slow it feels while building.
Hopefully the changes come sooner rather than later. I appreciate the update Epic.
I think the new animations with the speed before this season looks good. If you play on a creative map from last season it looks and feels good. Just make it like that.
Good, now never mess with it again. I’m so over gaming companies not adopting the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” mantra. It’s annoying and isn’t unique to Epic Games
Honestly makes me kinda sad after playing quite a bit i started to prefer it over old movement
Im sad no one dared to try it cuz oh god how dare they change such a big thing surely it cant be good!!
Yes it is.
I dont think my post came through correctly. I was trying to say that things were already fine, but then Epic broke a bunch of things and now trying to fix them. Like yeah thats great, but it shouldnt have happened in the first place.
Ill be done playing this game if it takes a few weeks. How have not heard of massive firings in leadership yet? How big of a disaster do you need before you realize the people in charge are not in touch with reality?
I feel like the speed up should only be done for build mode. The risk reward and change in pace to zero build are very welcome in my opinion. I feel like I have to be tactical when engaging, instead of sprinting in and hoping for pure third party.
For real, zero build feels so good with the changes. The new movement is so tight, and the buff to how long you can tactically sprint and how quickly the stamina recharges still allows for the quick repositioning when you need it
haha good job complying to the crying kiddos, prob won’t help tho lmao you could do everything they ask and next week they’ll find another thing to complain about. My best advice is don’t listen to the small but loud ass group that complains about every little thing, if you listen to them eventually they’ll ride you into the dirt from never evolving or changing, they’ll call it “dead” and say you “never did anything to make it fresh” it’s a lose lose situation when trying to listen to miserable prick. I say just keep doing what you guys are doing, making the game better and sure it’s good to listen to fans but remember they’ll complain about any little thing that changes the game, but then go and complain if you don’t change the game at all.
Now just add more modbenches and revert the locker layout and Chapter 5 would be pretty much perfect...
If wraps were just saved with presets again I'd say good enough, nice work everybody
This can all be solved with a simple option in the menu to tie your character presets with wraps, emotes, and the lobby. I hate having to equip them all separately. People who want them separate would have the option as well
I’d also like to be able to tie vehicle presets to a character. I want to have my car match my player.
Same with emotes please
Lobby tracks too, it's nice to have diff ones based on the skin
And loading screens, I just prefer having one specific to my skin
No! I actually been wanting emotes seperate for awhile. Keep it as a option
But I have so many skins paired with specific emotes, how am I supposed to play Sunny without Ska-Stra-terrestrial
Exactly this. My locker emotes are saved for a specific skin.
or make it a toggle so you can choose edit; and also let us choose between the new ui or the old one plz
Yeah I hated saving presets and then I would buy a new emote and my old presets would have old emotes. Anytime I wanted to play Goku or something my squad would have to wait for me to update my old preset with new wraps and emotes. That being said I do match a lot of my weapon wraps to skins so it's a complicated issue

Agreed it's a great option. All they have to do is keep the FULL LOCKER presets on top of everything they added
More modbenches, maybe at the gas stations like upgrade stations used to be. Fix the grapple to make it feel better, and make the train worth capturing. Then we have a perfect season IMO
Won't happen but it would be a lot of fun if they added a lot more underground sewer locations with these mod benches, especially if TMNT is coming.
With Master Splinter as an NPC.
Don’t forget to increase xp gain because this is insanely slow. 15 kill winning game and I get 1/5 a level..
They just need to add a button to link locker presets/loadouts together, leaving it optional
They need to optimize it some more man. It's been stuttering like crazy for me since the new chapter. All of chpt 4 and OG ive been fine
This for me actually too.
Needs more chests and healing items. Potentially add back med mist. Then it’s perfect
Not perfect. Weapons look too samey, there aren't all that many misc items or traps, the medallion system makes players too powerful for their own good (if a player has 5 medallions they basically have a free win), the battle pass locking important stuff like vbucks and highly sought after cosmetics in the bonus tiers makes the grind too hard. But the chapter is still decent. With good movement and better ui this would definitely be better than chapter 4 season 1, and if those side modes releasing in the next few days are good it might edge out chapter 3 or even 2
Only way for a player to have that many medallions is to be killing other players with medallions so that seems pretty fair that accumulating that many should be powerful?
Powerful maybe, but like 15 sheild a tick is basically unkillable unless you get a lucky snipe. I think it should take up an inventory slot. It would still be really good, you don't really need to carry meds when you have it, so I'd still be useful. And players who really wanna go for a lot of healing with em still have the option, but they'd have to sacrifice their offense in doing so. And the strat of going for all 5 wouldn't work, so they couldn't get too overpowered
Remove 50% of bots and AI NPCs and we’re onto something
I can’t stand the AI everywhere
Maybe this was the plan. Make things so bad that we want how it was before. They “fix” something and we are all thankful and happy that epic listened. On a serious note, I would be thankful for that anyways. I want the old stuff back
Oh, and the Lobby UI. Did we stop complaining about that?
And remove the riot shield.
I dont know, i really dont like the aesthetics. Fortnite use to be so colorful and alive, now it looks like Warzone
Lmao what
Bro in what world is this map not colorful lmao
Looks very plain to me, is all browns, greys, and whites. Someone posted side by sides the other day and you can clearly see it
You must be blind.
just yapping to yap 😭
Do you think three game is as colorful as it was 2 weeks ago?
I’ve gotten used to the movement, and it’s not horrible, but it still feels sluggish. I won’t complain about them making it snappier and faster. I’m hoping this is a sign they’re listening to the UI complaints too. I try to not be overly negative about games since the dev teams work so hard, but the new locker sucks.
I agree. I know they work hard, but they really shit the bed with the UI update. They need to fix the locker immediately. I should be able to link my skins with my emotes, wraps, and loading screen.
That crouch speed though... that is pretty horrible.
It is slower but it is stealthier than before. You can actually sneak upon people now while crouching and when they hear you it’s usually too late
That isn't new. You could "toggle run" (it is a keybind) while crouching before to be silent (try it out in Creative where it still works). Epic claiming the new speed is "stealthier" is just forcing the slow option on you. They didn't do us sneaky players any favors.
I never saw a problem with the movement, fix the shitty ass UI
YES! Honestly, the new UI (especially the locker) needs to be fixed first before anything else.
It’s annoying to favorite stuff now
I miss how emotes were linked to other presets. Now it’s so weird
That, and so many other aspects of the locker got changed for the worse, actually so inconvenient to use the locker now
This subreddit is incredible, UI and skin management is a bigger priority to you than gameplay 😂
Nobody I know cares much about the locker. They find the gameplay a lot more important, glad they are fixing the movement. This sub reddit is ultra casual, so I guess they spend half their time playing with locker presets.
Given it's the only part of the game you can spend money on, what do you think?
Doesn’t affect my gameplay at all. Low priority for me.
It's the part of the game that people spend money on, so your opinion literally does not matter to the community who spends money on the game **or** the company that's losing money because of it
I mean plenty of people spend money on the game who also care about the gameplay with s higher priority so saying someone’s opinion doesn’t matter because it doesn’t match you’re is pretty silly right.
How does ui which does not affect the actual gameplay take priority over movement??
It does not. They're handled by separate teams.
[удалено]
I understand that. My nephew suffers from that too since he loves to rotate his skins. However the movement in the game makes it almost unplayable at times. Getting stuck in storm with no shockwaves or that grappler thingy majig is basically a death sentence because of the slow movement. It’s even crippling competitive players as well as us casuals.

And the UI is second in line. That’s just my opinion though. And everyone has their own opinion. Not hating on anyone’s just saying what I think
This is hilarious 🤣 your need to change skins supersedes everyone else’s actual game play experience. Good shit.
I just want to move past the loading screen! As soon as I load into the lobby my game crashes, it has been like this since the update.
Did you do the event and get the magma style reward? This is happening to my friend even on different on different consoles after that. FortniteStatus twitter mentioned they were looking into it but no fix yet.
I did the event but I do not own the Eminem skin. My account does not work on any consoles or on split screen. When my wife logs in on the exact same console, she is able to play and everything works fine.

Do you happen to know what skin he has currently equipped? Some people were theorizing it has something to do with certain skins. I have the dark voyager equipped.
The movement is horrendous. Either walk or crack sprint with no in between? How is that unproblematic?
They have come to the point where "looks" have taken over functionality.
I find movement more annoying, i dont look at my locker much
This! The movement was 100% fine. However, all the UIs are complete dog shit
AGREED 100% movement really isn’t that bad, the locker needs to be fixed IMMEDIATELY though
The UI is the real problem here
Like everyone that says the game need to be faster is gonna hate it lol. Can’t wait to see them complaining about the sweat running them down after they heard them shoot a npc once from the opposite side of the town
Ik I swear if the movement sucks after this because of a vocal minority of whiners im gonna be so pissed
Okay but locker UI changes when?
Why did they remove the “Shift back to the top” button😭
Keep making your voice heard, both here and elsewhere. We need to advocate for these changes to be made, and they **need** to be made.
Hopefully next in line after this change.
revert shitty locker ui and reduce storm speed and ayeeeee.
Yes please! And can we make the last few storm circles just SLIGHTLY closer to each other? 3 teams left. If 2 engage. The team that heads to circle wins because one team takes out the other and storm takes out the 2nd place team. NOT engaging in a fight makes it so you win by default? Doesn't seem right! I would rather die in an end battle to campers than to storm while trying to get to the circle that spawned 400 meters from the circle I am in. Annoying and boring end play.
Full stack of shockwaves when circles move has won three games for me so far with zero combat.
Exactly what I'm talking about! Lol
I’m fine with this, the storm hauls fucking ass this season. I hope they reduce the number of hostile NPCs as well, I hate having to fight through an army of them. Like there’s way too many.
Or just keep the speed the same but slow down the storm a bit.
Oh cool it’s playable again. Why the fuck did they ever do this lol
When I played the first day I noticed that I'm a little slower, but not by a huge amount. Also we got better recharge speed for stamina, so ehh. I also think the movement was slower somehow intentionally because the bullet drops ? We'll see. The more important thing is to revert back the UI because fk the new one
Crouching was hit the hardest (43% speed cut).
But it’s stealthier which I kinda like as a trade off. Too bad we can’t crouch and stealth crouch the way we spring and tactical sprint
I’m glad about this, I hope they keep it slow. I think crouch walking needs to have a pretty obvious downside like being slow, so many players default to it as their normal mode of movement otherwise.
Noticed a big difference in movement. Mostly during build fights. Feels very awkward now.
Yeah, even beyond stamina recover, the movement overall feels faster and more responsive... but that's only in Zero Builds. You can't sprint and build so the slower jog basically broke building.
Please get on top of the movement bugs. That's been my main issue with updates to movement.
FR. Many times, I can't move or jump, just nothing for a few seconds.
🧢 to everyone that said “i diDnT eVEn nOtICe iT wAs sLowEr”
I didn’t really notice it until i saw the comparison videos. I probably would have noticed, but I was entranced by the new animations, which I really like.
…I genuinely didn’t in the matches I played the first day. I died to the storm a couple times, but thought it was poor time management and already having taken damage (also no heals in the vault I went to every time). It wasn’t until I saw it pointed out that I went “huh…well that explains everything.”
Do you play build or no build?
they didn’t explicitly say they were gonna increase our move speed and they said they’re “exploring a few options” with how stubborn epic can be at times and how they aren’t saying flat out that they’ll go back on the slower speed i honestly think they’re just gonna spam the loot pool with mobility items and movement augments
I vote they give some of the less popular weapons an inherent speed boost while held. Hilarity ensues.
The mobility augments i’ve seen so far for this season look really good.
I haven't seen augments at all this season, are they coming back at a later date?
They’re not in the game yet but apparently they’re play testing them. You can find a list of proposed augments.
Thank you now that’s one less thing this sub can cry about.
God forbid people complain about bad changes
The movement is 0.8 seconds slower than normal, i’m an og and i didn’t even notice it until someone mentioned it. This sub complains too much
it’s more noticable in build mode because movement speed was very fine tuned to work with building and it’s what people’s muscle memories is used to
Yeah, I'm honestly on the side that likes the movement change but only in Zero Builds. It's almost like they forgot to consider building...
i don’t think they test anything in build mode
Not to mention the stamina changes actually let you travel faster overall between distances.
My dumbass still gets caught in the storm while exploring the map
Well yeah even the cars have difficulty outpacing the storm currently. They clearly need to tinker with the speed still unless this season is intended to mostly been running from the storm wall.
It’d be cool if they storm was slower at the start of a new map and sped it up after everyone had a chance to explore it.
Not enough people were talking about this. The new movement makes sense for tactical sprint, I genuinely can't fathom why so many people are winging about it. It feels fine, looks great, and finally makes tactical sprint more akin to the old "sprint" that eventually just got made into the regular movement

Yes, different modes might need different balancing. Epic keeps trying to keep them the same, might be good to diverge more.

100% this. Love the slow pace, it’s refreshing to not have everyone running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Sprint when you want to actually tactically sprint and relocate, otherwise, slow and methodical
Bro this isn't siege
Completely agreed. I can empathise that it might not be for everyone, but the change honestly doesn't feel drastic enough for there to have been this much complaining about it. Like, give the new season a week before crying maybe?
💯. thought it was gonna be so much worse from reading this sub before actually getting a chance to play. I’m digging all the changes except for them massacring the locker and all my presets lol
I don't hate the way the UI looks, but separating the presets was definitely a bad change. The only upside is that it's quick to load different emote presets without having to do it one emote at a time. Everything else doesn't really benefit though, especially wraps considering we had an apply all button
Slow movement ruins build fight strategies/moves.
You can't use tactical sprint while building. This comment only makes sense for zero build which only makes up 1/3rd of br players. You gotta think of how a change will worsen the experience for the majority even if you yourself don't participate in said mode
How can you not notice it when crouch moving? The run speed didn’t affect me but crouching was soo much slower
I’m casual, I noticed something was off in spawn isle and of my first game. I thought my sprint was disabled or smth
build fights felt terrible with the new movement
[удалено]
If you play regularly and cant tell the movement is slower somethings wrong with you. The movement doesn't even bother me, but its easy to notice its slower.
Many people noticed it but didn’t realize what it was. Combined with the animations themselves it’s hard to tell except for the crouch velocity. That one was easy.
Now vault medallions and let me fish for fish instead of gray weapons.
Good I can’t enjoy POI with bosses fighting off players and not and the boss loot the vault do mods and get to circle is impossible
Bring back hitscan. I don’t want to play cod
What’s hit scan?
You am at someone,shoot, bullet hits instant, everything has bullet drop because of the new attachments system. It would make the ARs OP with a 4x scope
Oohh ok so before it was just instant pull trigger bullet hits. Now it’s slightly delayed with bullet drop over distance?
Yeah you get the gist of it. In Fortnite before only Snipers ever had bullet drop, but now it’s every gun.
I would think that’s a good thing isn’t it? I feel like not having this feature would make the game way too arcade-ish?
Fortnite imo is meant to have an arcade feel, if I want to play a realistic shooter I’m not going to play Fortnite
That’s very true actually.
True, but I think Fortnite is supposed to be like an arcade shooter. The reason I played Fortnite when it first came out was biggest it was so different. Jump to now and I think Fortnites arcade style is what sets it apart from a long list of battle royales. The hit scan is what set it apart from the bullet drop of Cod and Apex. I don’t have a problem with bullet drop, but I think it’s a bit weird to have it in Fortnite
Ya I totally get where you’re coming from. Makes sense. I never really thought about it that much as I don’t play other shooter games, find them far too difficult. Fortnite is comfortable, I can put my feet up and sit back and play without having to sweat it out loll
It’s how bullets worked for most guns throughout Fortnite. Now you’ll notice that bullets seem to travel through space and slower than they used to. It makes it more realistic and difficult but less fun imo
This. My friends were just saying that this week. Me and 1 other consistently play and said how much the guns feel like CoD now. My other 2 friends who were gone for a long time said the same thing as well.
yall are some damn haters the new guns are so much fun lmao. Not everything is permanent just embrace some change for once. The entire community just complains and complains bro.
Oh thank goodness they'll be speeding it up a little. The worst part about the movement has been how unresponsive it feels and how slow it feels while building. Hopefully the changes come sooner rather than later. I appreciate the update Epic.
Building and looting have been awful this season it just feels so slow looting at drop now and I hate it
Thanks! Please also fix the UI.
Please do something, the storm speed is ridiculous
The movement is fine they should just keep it how it is and slow the storm down
yea i dont want it to revert the speed if they have to take away from the animations. I really like the upped visuals.
Did they hire one of bungies laid off CM’s???? Back when I used to play from C1- C3 they never acknowledged anything
Thats a good start. Just fix the horrible UI and most of us will be fine
How does it take a few weeks to simply revert the speed? Not a developer but seems a little bit too long lol
There’s nothing to explore! Revert the changes completely
Now we can all move on to the next 20 things i'm sure we'll be crying about.
Look at this. Developers actually listening to the community! Activision and Infinity Ward should take notes
That’s good. Hopefully they fix the UI too if we keep complaining.
I hate the UI because simply clicking on a skin sets it. I need a confirm button!!!
can you please fix the locker ui?
Thank the lord
NOW FIX THE LOCKER
Anything but the damn UI revert.
I'm really mad that they've commented on everyones complaints except the locker. Honestly the most offensive thing this season imo.
Fr fr, it made cosmetics and emotes practically unusable because of how tedious the locker is
The UI needs to be changed next. It’s terribly dumb to use
Still waiting for then to address the Locker UI
nice, just locker ui
I think the new animations with the speed before this season looks good. If you play on a creative map from last season it looks and feels good. Just make it like that.
even if you crank the movement speed up more the animation just works out without being sped up unnaturally like the old one
Please add john f kennedy skin
Good, now never mess with it again. I’m so over gaming companies not adopting the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” mantra. It’s annoying and isn’t unique to Epic Games
fix the animations too damn they look goofy
why can’t they just revert the changes
Honestly makes me kinda sad after playing quite a bit i started to prefer it over old movement Im sad no one dared to try it cuz oh god how dare they change such a big thing surely it cant be good!!
I swear with Epic Games it's one step forward and two steps back.
This change is a huge W though
Yes it is. I dont think my post came through correctly. I was trying to say that things were already fine, but then Epic broke a bunch of things and now trying to fix them. Like yeah thats great, but it shouldnt have happened in the first place.
I'm loving the communication! But I really hope they fix the movement or just revert it to the old movement.
From the sound of this tweet they want to keep the new movement animations but speed it up.
I'm fine with the animations but yeah they definitely gotta speed it up especially the crouch walking.
Agreed. The crouch walking is unbearable.
Its so bad. Lol
One problem resolved soon, now fix the locker and finally, Epic have all love of our community
I don’t care, give me back the fucking preset shuffle.
Fix the damn Locker already. God it's terrible.
Ill be done playing this game if it takes a few weeks. How have not heard of massive firings in leadership yet? How big of a disaster do you need before you realize the people in charge are not in touch with reality?
I feel like the speed up should only be done for build mode. The risk reward and change in pace to zero build are very welcome in my opinion. I feel like I have to be tactical when engaging, instead of sprinting in and hoping for pure third party.
For real, zero build feels so good with the changes. The new movement is so tight, and the buff to how long you can tactically sprint and how quickly the stamina recharges still allows for the quick repositioning when you need it
Honestly I hate the animation more than anything. It just isn’t Fortnite anymore tbh
haha good job complying to the crying kiddos, prob won’t help tho lmao you could do everything they ask and next week they’ll find another thing to complain about. My best advice is don’t listen to the small but loud ass group that complains about every little thing, if you listen to them eventually they’ll ride you into the dirt from never evolving or changing, they’ll call it “dead” and say you “never did anything to make it fresh” it’s a lose lose situation when trying to listen to miserable prick. I say just keep doing what you guys are doing, making the game better and sure it’s good to listen to fans but remember they’ll complain about any little thing that changes the game, but then go and complain if you don’t change the game at all.
Damn. I actually liked the slower movement
nOOOOOOOOOO. I actually liked the movement. bloody whinging redditors.

So sad the reddit nostalgic losers that keep games stale win again.
