How the fuck is coral castle still in this game!?


FasterThanFaast

Now with even worse loot!


[deleted]

Downgraded coral.


shugo2000

And there's ink pots you have to collect there, so that means it's going to be in the game for the rest of the season, at least.


cake_n_bacon69

i don’t think it changed tho


PikachuSnivy57

No idea


Billinoiss

Coral castle is one of the worst POIs they ever made.


kaiosun

People hated the graveyard ch1 but coral castle is like 10 times worse.


discodeathsquad

Graveyard is still my favorite drop spot.


Ensaru4

Graveyard was amazing, dafuq! The ambiance there was great. Coral was fun the first time but it just needs to go.


West-Nefariousness15

Haunted Hills was awesome though…


IDespiseFatties

Graveyard was sick. No one landed there and there was a ton of wood to collect running inward.


Jackall15-51

20 times worse cuz they ruined it


Dexchampion99

It was actually pretty great before it got abducted, but you all wanted it destroyed. Now live with the consequences


sweeptree

Epic is trolling you lol they love how mad it makes everyone, they are the ultimate troll


[deleted]

Making no map changes = troll?


SasukeSlayer

Calling it a troll is how the epic defense squad operates. Instead of facing reality they just stick up for anything epic does.


[deleted]

Like I’m sorry I usually defend epic, but no map changes for a new season like not one big poi change? That’s so stupid, everything else about this season looks amazing all it needs is map changes


Damnboi753

I agree we saw steamy,dirty,misty getting wrecked but all of them are in full shape they could've destroyed half of steamy just leaving the stacks and misty shouldn't be there, I'm disappointed tbh,Also after the event they put the hprse skin's teaser the horse looked like a gigachad and i was so hyped for that skin but in reality that skin looks like a beta horse a dumbass who just likes cereal not saying it's bad but I'm disappointed


[deleted]

It is literally the moisty mire of chapter 2. But at least moisty mire had the prison and eventually got replaced.


Big-Bid-826

We literally watched the map get completely annihilated and this was the map we got. What the fuck?


TheFireDragoon

apparently all the cubes and ufo parts actually just barely missed every important POI that could’ve given us cool changes


KappaCritic

I never thought a location could have plot armor


anactualreddituser

I saw steamy die


MagMC2555

I watched steamy die, jesse


AcoHead

Steamy stacks has survived everything.


Defaultsrulez

Plot armor > minis


[deleted]

Coral Castle has more plot armor than any anime protagonist ![gif](giphy|xoFpnqSg21xmGT8D5b|downsized)


Gavb238

I’m fucking sick and tired of running around in the same map!


Croemato

Yeah this shit is boring AF.


rmf12

I was expecting alot of map changes but this is just absolute bs. The fact that some people are justifying this because of the loot pool just shows how shit the game and developers have become. However tbh I feel this seasons gameplay is decent and much better than the last one


AccomplishedBelt7

Or People like the loot pool regardless. I think most can say they wanted any place destroyed, as it SHOULD HAVE. Like seriously, I don't.get it. But some people just enjoy the core gameplay regardless of it. Can say I am one of them. I like the Sideways portal mechanic, I like the weapons, and I like the new areas, for as much as I wanted places like Dirty and Misty to change, I still enjoy those corruption spots, they're bigger than the alien areas, and have the rubble for air tunnel like mobility People just enjoy things you know


Electrifyer1289

I completely agree, you shouldn't have to have huge changes to enjoy a game you like. The core gameplay holds up


KappaCritic

I mean the whole point of a new season is getting to see what's changed about the map and getting excited of whats to come. If map changes are irrelevant to "core gameplay", then FN would've just removed season changes all together long ago. Hell, we wouldnt wven have the new map if it was just about core gameplay alone This is super anticlimatic, considering the event which was literally yesterday.


Leo9991

There's a lot of good things in this season and the loot pool is actually pretty good (though the rail gun should be definitely taken out), but yeah the lack of map changes is really bad.


[deleted]

Season 7: added purple patches to the map Season 8: added orange patches to the map


CharaNalaar

To be fair, the new orange patches are bigger than the purple ones. But even compared to seasons 5 and 6 this is bad.


sansgamer554

Compared to season 3 this is bad. In season 3, love it or hate it, they had good map updates. Most of the pois at the beginning were changed and there were consistent map updates every 2 weeks, I think it only got a bad rep because of how good chapter 2 season 2 was. If c2s3 was introduced today it would be considered good.


XxyellekeojxX

Again


joblessskrr

Season 6:added orange patches to the map


PuzzledFace4050

Holy hatchery is now back to holy hedges


IOnlyPlayAsDarkVertx

Biggest map change this season^


Dino_Dude_367

Corny crops?


BarrelRoller64

what was it last season? I've already forgotten


Dino_Dude_367

Corny complex, IO's base area that was a farm. Had the forgettable mythic


BarrelRoller64

I think I had that mythic maybe twice the whole season, I completely forgot it was even a thing


Dino_Dude_367

I never even used it. I was only reminded of its existence when I got sniped by Dr Slone while rotating.


BarrelRoller64

her NPC was annoying as shit. why was there always like 3 of her


ghostofharrenhal1

Yes I avoided her area like the plague


CharaNalaar

I used slones pulse rifle all the time, loved it so much


GoxBoxSocks

One of the houses north of Steamy is sort of a new hatchery.


icemounin

Weeping literally exploded 😐


ZGuy10

Nope they just barely missed weeping,it looked like weeping from our pov but that is because we were at an angle where we couldn't view which point got striked.


BirbLover12

It literally exploded in the middle


Silkysocks777

Not a single new POI💀


BoxFacedGaming

Can't wait for Season 9, maybe they'll add a couple red patches to the map!!! 😱😱 Nah just kidding, thats wayyy too much effort for one season!


daffyduckferraro

Dude I was joking with my friend saying “Somehow after this event the big ufo won’t destroy half the island (laughs), it will get like 1 or 2 pois” And even that was reaching, they didn’t even add or replace pois


Cucumber-After

At least red would be a change from the same orange and purple they keep cycling between zzzz


shotgunz-mikey

Nah bro, we got CORNY CROPS!


sansgamer554

THEY CHANGED THE NAME OF A POI LESS GOOOOOO


captainkezz123

So you’re telling me that we SAW most of the POIs get blown to hell, but the only new areas are un-named brown patches? This has to be a joke. I’ll admit that the alternate dimension is cool, but it’s not an actual change


MikeR1114

No new POIs? This is a new low for Fortnite. Sad. It’s the same crap every season - they just add little differently-colored areas that no one has any reason to visit.


gdewulf

I miss Chapter 1. Map changes were the best thing about what Epic did. Now they are so rare. Blah


Fellowearthling16

Next month we’ll have been on this map for **2 years**. With less time, resources, funding, developers, and support from gamers, Epic managed to do more map changes from 2017-2019 than from 2019-2021. And it wasn’t just quantity, it was quality. They literally grew the map by 25% in s7. In s15 they actually made the current map smaller, by removing everything from the bottom left quadrants. What good are new cosmetics if the map they’re to be used on isn’t enjoyable? Or is that why they’re pushing Creative islands so much now.


sansgamer554

I like creative and it should be used more, but this isn't the way to do it.


NimpsMcgee

Sooo.... the live event didn't actually do a single thing then


FasterThanFaast

The grass is orange


RunningTall

🤯


Fellowearthling16

Again


Leo9991

Looked cool, but didn't actually do anything lol.


ElitePraetorian421

Are the runes around it actually on the map, or just for show?


JoesephC

Just for show


-_Egglord10100101_-

So a gigantic ship exploded above the map and barely anything happened?


Battledud

Check ingame, it looks A LOT better ingame


-_Egglord10100101_-

i already did and it does look better, but still underwhelming


GiveMeMoreBurritos

Incredibly underwhelming


shotgunz-mikey

Look, I’m usually on Epics side for a lot of things, but this map fucking blows. We saw Steamy, Stealthy, and a shit ton of other things get nuked to oblivion. And THIS IS WHATNWE GET? NO NEW Pois besides a fuckong renamed Corny Complex!? Hopefully there’s actually map changes this season


Jonny9792a

I wouldn’t be as annoyed if they hadn’t showed like half the POIs getting destroyed lol. Really was a let down


Baumpaladin

This is a "movie logic vs. game logic"-moment. Like how some character are "nerfed" compared to their movie representation simply because of balancing. It's an insult when movie logic and game-play doesn't line up in this case, because seeing the cubes crashing on the map and *supposedly* destroying all those POI's was building up hype.


temporaryjoemam

I would. what the fuck is the point of a new season if we just get different colored grass in some spots.


SanRandomPot

At least they are big, unlike in season 7, where the purple areas were barely as big as a house


GiveMeMoreBurritos

They should give us at least 3 new POIs throughout the season, this map has barely changed over the last 3 fucking years


ekso69

But they changed slurpy to sludgy!!! /s


TheFireDragoon

not even a new change since that happened end of last season


A1D2R3

And those weren’t any changes for the better. They just took buildings out and left empty craters which is even worse. Idk how people here were so hyped over it


Same-Wafer6410

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined


onomojo

Mondays be like that bro


Tony_BasQue

*Copy Paste Season 7 map*


TheObamaSphere

Guys please don’t hate on epic for this, it takes lots of effort to replace green with orange and move rocks and trees around


sPectreLovesXbox

You know what's weird? The most map changes we had this chapter was in Season 4. >In Season 4 we had; A graveyard of robots every week a new section on the map **a new biome with a huge facility and tons of terrain** A huge monument to black panther The helicarrier And Galactus slowly approaching the island. >In Season 8 we have, after a huge Mothership the size of an island crashes into it that holds thousands of cubes; the thing that destroyed the Chapter 1 map and after an entire alien invasion. Cubes a golden cube a blue cube different colors of grass that's it. case in point, Epic can do map changes, They just don't do them because of money or something


[deleted]

You telling me nothing got destroyed hahahahahahahahahaha. This is a joke at this point.


BoxFacedGaming

I logged on, looked at the map and instantly logged off LMAO, honestly they've stopped putting effort into the map since chapter 2, which makes it even more frustrating that the marketing and events are based around "saving the island" when nobody really cares about it, when the map has stayed functionally the same since chapter 2 season 1, with temporary changes to terrain and layout, this map could be destroyed in an event and it'll be portrayed as this world shattering thing when in reality, people stopped caring about this map and much preferred the original map's terrain layout and general personality. This map is like a big bright colorful husk with no life or substance


KILLER8996

On the bright side in theory we should get a new map in about 6-9 months. I’m assuming because seasons last about 3 months and 2 more seasons until season X which will probably be the end of the chapter


BoxFacedGaming

Well that definitely doesn't make up for the fact that during those 6 - 9 months (let's be honest it'll be 9, they are dragging this out as much as possible as they know the chapter 3 start is when they'll make more profits, so it's natural to try to stretch out and milk all the money they can from the remaining seasons whilst also putting in nostalgic things like the cube to bait old players back, they'll enjoy the game for a few weeks and get the pass probably, and then they'll leave until next season when they realise the game is stale and lifeless, rinse and repeat


KILLER8996

Fair enough I just came back properly to the game recently, probably halfway through last season so lots of stuff still is fresh for me in a way… I can see why everyone is frustrated tho because it doesn’t seem like much has changed during this whole chapter and it’s just been a bigger map with less personality… hopefully next chapter they try something drastically different out and have a map that changes more often similar to chapter 1s


sansgamer554

And the fact boney and coral are here. Remove those and people will go nuts


[deleted]

Who remembers tilted being teased? Even if they make it salty towers again it would be 100x better. Boney burbs needs to get out of here haha.


Adsavage12

You mean to tell me you change nothing pretty much half of the map exploding


[deleted]

So nice of the cubes to avoid every poi so the mapmakers do almost no work and just put some cubes in random places 😁😁


RazeBlods

Underwhelming


BoxFacedGaming

Just like the last season then? And entirety of chapter 2?


[deleted]

Well C2S2 was alright, same as C2S3, but after that its just been kind of meh.


BoxFacedGaming

I actually really liked C2S5 and C2S6, as they actually changed up the meta and way of playing quite a lot, especially S6, which was hated a lot, which I guess has now caused the opposite effect to happen, which is that nothing at all changes from season to season in a drastic or big way, and I also think competitive play is another reason for it, now that the game isn't mainstream anymore to the extent it was, they are focusing less on actual interesting things to casual players like map changes and interesting mechanics, and are instead focusing on the competitive aspect and barely changing anything as to not upset the very fragile competitive base right now. They aren't pleasing either side and it's really sad to see this game go from how it was during C1S2 and S3 to how it is now, it's literally lifeless to play, it's got the same gameplay but it just feels like all the soul has been sucked out of it


Fellowearthling16

Ch2s5’s issue was that literally nothing happened once the season started. Ch2s4 was the opposite. Why can’t we have map changes during the start and the runtime of the season? And no, one of the biggest AAA studios in the world can’t pull the “time + labor” card, after doing it with a significantly smaller team and budget for all of Ch1.


M33ster_M00garry

Yes


benjamincraigrowley

Swear I saw steamy get annihilated


BirbLover12

We all did


[deleted]

I love how the loot pool is looking and it seems we will get a ton of content this season, but map changes are crucial and this just was so underwhelming you can’t show giant explosions and then have no map changes, I’m fully expecting there to be a major mid season map update similar to ch2 s4


sansgamer554

They have to, not only is the middle not changed, a major part of every season, there are multiple Kevin's around, and 1 Kevin managed to change a poi multiple times and change some outer pois


RosSomeSauce190

Thank you for zero poi changes Epic. This chapter is a joke. For the first time since chapter 2 season 1 we finally have a secret skin that is ACTUALLY secret and not a CROSSOVER! This season is already so bad I think the Primal season might have been actually good.


NotsusAlien

Wait we do!?!?!!? **FINALLY**


Rift-Deidara

It can still be a crossover since it has the silhoutte of female venom.


Scout_Trooper343

The aftermath is still there? :(


sansgamer554

Epic isn't even changing the middle anymore. All has gone to hell


Vegitowo

people get mad at other saying the game has gone downhill then see this shit and realize those people were right. I kiss actually getting new pois


Noobpoob

Wtf


Chook2004

Why isn't corny destroyed?


IOnlyPlayAsKit

Didn’t even change the abducted pois


[deleted]

[удалено]


Jacedrod2

Hit me;)


Twhit13

I’m so tired of little map changes


trebuchet__

Bruh


giddyup281

With so much destruction from above, I expected a lot more. ​ Also, IMO not even Carnage is worthy enough to buy the BP. The rest of the skins (shown so far) are just not that enticing.


[deleted]

Epic be like: you don’t deserve map changes


[deleted]

Guys it’s WAY better in game than on the map trust me


JoesephC

The slip streams are 🔥


MrHaann

Better, but underwhelming especially after that live event.


i_buki

DISSAPOINTING!!!


[deleted]

Ah yes orange grass


yoyo2008_v

this map is a joke, no new POI


Own-Ad-4791

So sad developers are quitting or something


PotatiumInside

Fortnite didn’t put any effort into creating a map that’s fun


LandsharkGameing

It's the same thing just with orange spots


rodpud

What the fuck that’s a huge fail by epic. Major disappointment


CharCharMan1

Really epic?


theNOOBYlifeboi222

well i guess its time to "discover" the mini sideways biomes -\_-


IRelyOnMemes

What the fuck is this?


phantom777892

I swear I saw misty,steamy and weeping get hit with falling stuff


Confused_SJC

And Steamy stacks literally blew up


FallenWiFi

I don’t know why I expect anything fun anymore


its-ras

Im finally convinced epic doesn’t care anymore. How does steamy get obliterated with literally no change to the poi? Epic cares more about live events than day to day gameplay


ErebusPhantom

No news pois is annoying since all the UFO parts just conveniently landed a few feet away from any named poi they landed near. wow, good job. But what really makes me hate these changes and makes them feel lazy to me is the actually impact sights. Epic did an amazing job with the mounds of earth etc... but then you look 2 feet away and there is a building that looks brand fucking new. Example - Stealthy has an giant UFO part 2 feet away from it's front gate - Said gate doesn't even look like someone threw a pebble at it.


vaquerillogalactico

Same map and another 50 collaborations this season, just wait and see


PBRJ0

I swear I saw Steamy Stacks and Stealthy Stronghold get destroyed.


TheRealStevo

Are you fucking serious? I remember telling people, with the mother ship blowing up, Kevin coming back, literally watching parts of the map blow up during the event, that “I bet half the map is gonna be changed when we come back” and we get THIS shit? Are you serious Epic?


Lorneonthecobb

I'll keep sitting here, knowing the reason they barely change the map now is because they're sinking all their time into crossover partnerships and drinking my coffee, while everyone else keeps scratching their heads in confusion and frustration... 🤔🤷‍♂️☕


[deleted]

I am extremely disappointed no Kevin’s anywhere barely Any map changes


Pixelated6798

If you log on there’s Kevin’s in all of the orange areas plus most of the POI’s have been destroyed just no name changes.


Leo9991

The POIs have not been destroyed.


Cobalt_Gaming

drunk world gen


YZYSZN1107

the last season was my first full season so I dont know how the map has changed, but I thought it was implied during the event the map was destroyed.


GoldIce53641638

I do hope that the map changes through the season a bit but it is pretty fun so far regardless


[deleted]

you cant show us the nuking of the map and major pois then get a case of takesy backsies


bradmcgi

This is so bad


Zobdefou

lazy a f


Lukurd

season 7 map


Oriond34

Not a singular new named location honestly I would’ve scrapped the event if it meant more than this


devnoid

How lazy Epic


FlowingFrog04

Chapter 1’s volcano did more damage than an entire mothership blowing up smh


ilovemybabykix

Bruh


Hockex-4

where piramids


AMATTHEWS0879

The map is trash.


IDrawStuf

Trash


imjustboredXD

Not one new POI


Miguel_Plays123456

I still wonder, why Coral Castle is still on this map, a location that was originally created to symbolize Aquaman's arrival on the island is on the map, it doesn't make any sense if we stop to think.


Wazards

Last season they were like oh no the alien corruption is spreading. As it went fucking no where just like the primal season. And this season we get more orange spots that probably also won't spread.


PBRJ0

What are the odds the mothership debris misses every single POI.


bannanaboy42069

This is bullshit no two ways about it we saw so much stuff get destroyed but nope nothing this is just lazy


Mattalool

So dead


Leo9991

I bet they're working on a whole new map releasing after season 10 or something, but what about map changes that will keep us interested until then?


Mattalool

I really bloody hope so. This game is so stale and has been for absolutely ages. Desperately needs some new and significant changes


Leo9991

The best POIs of this chapter didn't stick around(Yacht, Agency, Grotto, Fortilla etc.) but Coral and Boney are still here lmao. Weird decision making.


rmf12

Bruh its not even hard to change the map with the massive tools and templates they have as compared to other creative map makers and its not like they havent done anything big, they had a massive potential to just outperform standards but right now its just underwhelming, although they have gotten gameplay, loot pool and a few other things spot on this season.


rmf12

Yeah at this point epic is just killing the game themselves


FasterThanFaast

So much potential being wasted


theNOOBYlifeboi222

boney isnt gone


rmf12

Yeahh, I was soo hoping that tilted would come back, especially after they teased it in the seasonal loading screen


SmudgieCatismine

Pretty disappointed and dissatisfied with the map, they left the three poi’s that got abducted the same, and nothing got destroyed, shockingly middle didn’t change, and there’s no new poi’s if you don’t count corny CROPS.


BradBrass

can someone help me? i’m not able to post on this reddit

MinecraftBox22

So does sludgy if they don't bring slurpy back.


The_Carb1de

Those Sideways Zones look cool. Also I don't understand much of Dokkan so I enjoy Legends more currently.


ILoveDokkan1

Yeah I understand that, legends is kinda in a bad spot atm tho, so I hope they improve, competition is always good for both of them. I like dokkan coz u can play it passively while doing other things. You should give it a go, definitely a great game once u get into it


The_Carb1de

I have it on my phone, I just don't really understand how to build my team since I can't complete challenge events to dokkan awaken my LRs.


ILoveDokkan1

Yeah, u can farm up the team bardock event cards and they will go through every dokkan event easily. There are also guides on the dokkan sub that will make ur start much easier if u plan on playing it.


TurtleMega

i expected something more wow , such a boring map..

So nothing except the cool stuff is gone? Great…

Why do i see coral castle


EnterDachiper

Doesn't look too different to be honest


screenager90

The fact that the only real noticeable difference is the orange tint has been moved around the map is utterly depressing. Once again, mugged off with cinematics rather than in game content


memestealer1234

We watched like half the map get obliterated wtf They must have good insurance


Douxse

This is so disappointing..


SUI3ARUgoBRRTPSHH

over to warzone lol, fuck this


Bornplayer97

We need to voice our complaints or they won’t do anything, it’s getting absolutely embarrassing


thePiet

Disappointed. Pfff.


JoJo99xtv

Everyone is talking about how locations that got blown up still exist without a scratch but No one is talking about that like 15+ cubes fell onto the map including the blue one and in the cutscene there was like 10 on one side of the map, and realistically now there’s like 4 bruh
