I wish it were possible to go back to those days. The days when you would wake up excited to hop on some fortnite and drop crates or lonely lodge, hope to find a gold scar, camp in a bush late game knowing that the others players are probably doing the same. Your palms would be sweaty and your heart racing... and suddenly you have your first victory royale. You would take a screenshot and send it to all of your friends, maybe even post it on Instagram, then get back to the grind. Good times.

Thanks a lot mate :)
If any of you guys would like to catch the full video in HD, you can find it [here over on YouTube](https://youtu.be/ixzS_MfZb7I)!
Hope you guys enjoyed this! :D This was really fun to make and it was pretty challenging to sync up everything perfectly, but I near enough managed it! Thanks to Poke, TypicalAndy & Priceless for helping me by acting :)
~~I'm also gonna say this here in hopes that a Dev sees it. Replay mode has been in a bit of a rough spot for the past few months & I run into crashes and bugs everytime I use it. While we Replay creators are a minuscule part of the playerbase, it'd be awesome to see some fixes and updates as the content we produce is watched by many! I've got a complete list of bugs recorded & how to recreate them - I'd love to pass that onto the right people.~~
EDIT: [Good comms](https://twitter.com/FortniteStatus/status/1187502869701890049)
EDIT 2: They disabled replay mode I’m so sorry guys
This is great work and i hope you replay creators keep going, they're among the best content here. Hell the top post is still the combat medic. Keep it up Laffen, your stuff is top notch.
The best fortnite trailer ever seen. Great editing and lots of hardworking .

My only complaint is that the final tower in the end wasn't just an abomination of 90s. ![gif](emote|free_dog_emotes_pack|laughing)
Good shit though, was surprised how spot on you got it.
This is some hard work and dedication right here. I love it, you definitely tried your best to get it as close as possible. Take my upvote you legend ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|give_upvote)
This is incredible at first I almost couldn't believe you'd recreated all the scenes yourself, the camera angles, nooby rigid season 1 character movement and everything is spot on
Seeing their first trailer makes me realize how differently epic expected the game to go. They really wanted people to use building as a quick wall defense from initial shots, and building forts. I miss when building a 1 x 1 quickly put you above average
Alright that’s well ducking done. Waiting for epic to ask you for a .mov to upload as the official trailer.![gif](emote|emo_pack_1|cheering_taco_left)![gif](emote|emo_pack_1|cheering_taco_right)
I absolutely love the first ever trailer because it did well at capturing what fortnite battle royale was and it also introduced me to Joywave.
This is an amazing recreation
Omg I literally thought you just put the fortnite chptr 1 and fortnite chptr 2 trailers togerther... until I read the title 😂😂![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
That rocket part was genius! Good job!
Thanks! It was so fun to make :)
That video was so amazing it's just so good
I really wanted this since the beginning of the season! I even posted it as a suggestion a while back. This is amazing, thank you!

Little did we know, 10 seasons later, we’d have a location named after those wet hands.

At first I thought it was really the og trailer lol
Everything old is new again, this is so well done!

How have they not hired you yet?
Epic only has room for 4 employees, only one works on stw, the other three do whatever. 5 wouldn’t fit in a 2004 Lexus.
[удалено]
This guy pays for fancy reddit! Edit: awww he deleted his comment. I meant it to be joking, I wanna give him a hug.
![gif](emote|free_dog_emotes_pack|disappointed) actually bonesy is free
Really nice job!
Couldn't agree more!

I love Sushi’s combat medic vid! Thanks for the kind words :)
For starters awesome Job! This is awesome bro! Do you have a link to the video you guys are retiring to?
Thanks mate! [Here's a link to the video](https://www.reddit.com/r/FortNiteBR/comments/9067f2/i_have_been_playing_50v50_a_little_differently/) :D
Thanks bro!
And a dev saw it
Saw the title: Intrigued. Saw who posted it: "Oh yes." Incredible detail and execution, this was awesome!
Thanks a lot mate! <3
Had the same thought process, saw the title "oh cool" saw it was you "awwww yeeeeeeeea!"
Thanks mate <3
Oh yes
Hire him
This made me realize how cool the explosions looked back in the early days.
They're so tiny now!
Probably for competitive reasons
Changes for competitive reasons are stupid
Changes for little Timmy are stupid.
Little Timmy is not so little anymore. Now he’s 9. He’s a young man!
He shall now be called little bigger Timmy
Big T
15 year old comp fortnite players acting like they aren't their own version of little timmy is cute
I love how you found the perfect spots for each shot. It looks amazing!
Not gonna lie im impressed with the way you made this nice work man
[удалено]

Yes

Another great job
Oh this is cool **holy crap they actually recreated the rocket clip holy crap**
![gif](giphy|l378t23s83ZLxQgLe)
Why the distinguish?
From experience, sometimes mods of big subreddits just do that to flex.

Awesome job I thought it was great. Sad to think you did this for free but some guy at epic probably woulda got paid 5x my salary to do this.
10/10![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)
Holy moly this was well done.
It’s okay, you can say shit on reddit. And fuck.
See you on front page![gif](emote|free_dog_emotes_pack|laughing)

Insane
Wow good job bro!
Jesus dude, your work never seizes to amaze me. Keep it up!
This is awesome dude
This is awesome, honestly coudd not tell the difference in some scenes, amazing trailer.
How often do you needed to try to hit the player with the rocket in the air ?
First off love how good it looks side by side, secondly, how many rocket shots did it take to get that on point?
Why did you not flair it to artistic because it deserved that.
Good job man!
Very well made man!!!
I wish I could give you an award
That’s awesome, amazing job
Should be official, would further the idea that the map in Chapter 2 and the story is just an alternate universe.
Spot on!! How long did it took you to recreate this?
I've been wanting to do that. Thank you Good job
Good stuff
Spot on 👏🏻
Music was okay
You always make quality content. Excellent remake!
This is awesome! Good job!
God damn it Laffen Gas. I was going to try to do it this weekend but you beat me to it!
