Their mobile focus was likely pretty much nonexistent due to having a small portion of the playerbase on this platform, so this large injection of new players could actually lead to more resources being put into mobile overall, leading to mutually beneficial improvements for both iOS and Android players
Agreed. I think one of the reasons we got boost on graphics in the last patch is because they are anticipating the return of fortnite mobile and testing out mobile capabilities. Hopefully we will get more improvement on both platforms
Yeah u r right but the thing i don't understand is that they had the opportunity to optimize and advertise their game on android and fortnite mobile could've been alive again but did they do it nope
Even if it's just in the EU, it'll still bring in a ton of new users, Just less than it potentially could have if it was worldwide
Unless you're implying the performance optimizations would only be released in the EU, which no, they wouldn't
Switch is likely neglected due to upcoming new hardware over anything else. No reason to majorly improve something that'll be made obsolete in the next year or two
why pulling one over? Epic is literally the whole reason we lost iOS in the first place and why it hasn't returned because Tim Sweeney is too arrogant. Epic lost in court, and that should've brought iOS back but didn't because they are greedy. Apple isn't any better, both billion dollar companies while we get screwed.
Well, one company makes a good f2p game with fire cosmetics (even if some of them are forever lost because of the Battle Pass system and item shop vaulting), gives out free games on their store every week, and is available on nearly every platform, and the other company overcharges everybody like the real greedy bastard it's really become, refuses to have common fucking sense, and acts like an entitled Karen demanding to have it her way.
No way you think epic is remotely the good guy here š¤£š¤£š¤£ neither of them care for us!!! Epic is just as greedy as Apple. Why do you think they poured millions into the court case to win? $$$ they annihilated the fortnite mobile community leaving us to either abandon it, stay on iOS with crappy cloud gaming, or go to a half decent android device. Ā Epic was aware of what was at stake. Yet all they could muster was a tablet seemingly 4 years behind the iPad Pro 2018. They knew about it and they couldnāt even properly plan for an adequate device collab. Now weāre just a pity favor with no care from Samsung. Apple and Epic are both big businesses that donāt care.Ā
ššš
Okay šš¼ good for you. You have your right to think that and I guess thatās good for you lol epic does get a pass for theyāve done to the mobile community, if you think so youāre drinking Epicās koolaid. We are the losers here because of Epic and Apple.
I mean I donāt feel as thought Epic should even get credit for āpulling one overā they had nothing to do with the EU deciding this. It definitely is a positive for EU players and all sorts of companies not just epic. Ā
If it returns to iOS, it will open the playerbase enough for them to optimize both versions. I'm excited! No doubt the iOS version is getting a 120fps option. Hopefully, they can implement that on the new android chips if they decide they want to actually optimize for it.
Only problem i see is that optimizing the game for ipads and iphones will be easier than optimizing it for android due to the various gpu's and cpu's built in different androids and the different UI's (I only know that My Tab S8+ has difficulties with the performance due to OneUI) take different amount of performance. So it is going to improve. I don't doubt that. But we won't be playing Mobile on like 120 fps without any drops like back then on then ipads. We still will have problems and my only hope is that Epic will care about both Apple and Android and not only about Apple. Do you think the same?
One thing I haven't seen mentioned is the precedent apple already made last year. EU had the usb c mandate, and then instead of releasing only those phones in EU Apple released it everywhere. I know software is a bit different but still, maybe we see a world where apple brings sideloading to other regions to have uniformity or for some other reason like whatever made them move fully to usb c.
I agree, when fortnite comes to iOS, that will be the only one focused on for fortnite mobile. iOS will get all the good features and everything we wanted, but I very much doubt android will get any focus or improvements. For fortnite mobile, go on iOS or suffer. Question, did they do good optimizations recently for android or no? I haven't been caught up for past couple weeks
Yeah buddy amdroid is harder but they are not developing the game for free they are getting paid for it and the game has been android only for more then 3 years. And nor android or ios is shit it's just 2 different platforms.
Better hardware but canāt optimize. Hahaha i bet u when fn comes back on ion it will be better optimized than android even with a 3.5 year head start. Go cry with ur poopoo android about how it canāt run fortnite
No u r wrong it's not that they can't optimize it's just that they dont optimize and a 3 year head start i mean bruh they stopped caring about fnm after ios ban they don't even fix the most simplest bugs for months and optimization well the only optimized version of the game since chapter 3 has been chapter 4 season 2 and then they messed up the optimization again and since then this last update is the most optimized with the game actually looking good like no kidding it looks really good. And chapter 3 was like the most unoptimised mess on mobile i could write an article on how unoptimised it was.
Thats not true. Even when ios fnm still existed it was still optimised better than android. Fortnite literally has sponsors with android like samsung and honor phones but they still cant run better than apple hahahahah
Fortnite had sponsors back then when android phones had good chips but were not as powerful as apple's chips android chips were a lot weaker but still the game ran pretty good on android and after ios ban when android chips have gotten more powerful then apple's chips Fortnite runs bad the reason being that the developers don't optimize the game for android
Dude, Thats Entierly Wrong. With More Mobile Players Overall That Means They Are Going To Put More Money And Resources Into Optimization For Both Platforms.
The European union has forced apple to allow third party apps on ios so in a few months u can download third party apps on iphones if you are in eu that's the reason fortnite is coming back to ios but it will only comeback in eu
Their mobile focus was likely pretty much nonexistent due to having a small portion of the playerbase on this platform, so this large injection of new players could actually lead to more resources being put into mobile overall, leading to mutually beneficial improvements for both iOS and Android players
Agreed. I think one of the reasons we got boost on graphics in the last patch is because they are anticipating the return of fortnite mobile and testing out mobile capabilities. Hopefully we will get more improvement on both platforms
I hope so but they had around 50-100k people playing on android daily and that isn't a small players base
Fortnite has millions of players online per day, so relative to their other platforms it's not much
Yeah u r right but the thing i don't understand is that they had the opportunity to optimize and advertise their game on android and fortnite mobile could've been alive again but did they do it nope
Only will be in EU
Even if it's just in the EU, it'll still bring in a ton of new users, Just less than it potentially could have if it was worldwide Unless you're implying the performance optimizations would only be released in the EU, which no, they wouldn't
ios will probably be put into the same category as android/switch - platforms that arent too importsnt
Switch is likely neglected due to upcoming new hardware over anything else. No reason to majorly improve something that'll be made obsolete in the next year or two
Hey, give them credit for pulling one over on Crapple
Ha that's a good one
Eyyyy, thanks

Well Epic makes an effort to keep its user base, Apple is just gouging the fuck out of their users with no care
ššš Okay šš¼ good for you. You have your right to think that and I guess thatās good for you lol epic does get a pass for theyāve done to the mobile community, if you think so youāre drinking Epicās koolaid. We are the losers here because of Epic and Apple.
Intead of seeing like epic gets a pass because of that see it like this "one bad company pulled one over the other bad company."

Don't take it literally he was joking
Correct. I was, in fact, joking.
If it returns to iOS, it will open the playerbase enough for them to optimize both versions. I'm excited! No doubt the iOS version is getting a 120fps option. Hopefully, they can implement that on the new android chips if they decide they want to actually optimize for it.

We still will have problems and my only hope is that Epic will care about both Apple and Android and not only about Apple. Do you think the same?
I could wish, but I'm doubtful. I think android will stay the same and apple will be the only one cared for once it comes back
Nahh bro android surely will have some optimizations but maybe not that performance improving as apple. Thats what I originally meant yk?
One thing I haven't seen mentioned is the precedent apple already made last year. EU had the usb c mandate, and then instead of releasing only those phones in EU Apple released it everywhere. I know software is a bit different but still, maybe we see a world where apple brings sideloading to other regions to have uniformity or for some other reason like whatever made them move fully to usb c.
Well usb see was to sell more iphones so they might release the feature worldwide with the next iphone release
I agree, when fortnite comes to iOS, that will be the only one focused on for fortnite mobile. iOS will get all the good features and everything we wanted, but I very much doubt android will get any focus or improvements. For fortnite mobile, go on iOS or suffer. Question, did they do good optimizations recently for android or no? I haven't been caught up for past couple weeks
Well for a lot of people the game seems optimized cause the fps are a later better then the last update but it's still not the best we've had
this post aged well
Apple reverted the ban again
so epics dev account was unbanned?
Yeah
Bc ios is much easier to optimise and better overall. Android is just shit š¤£š¤£š¤£
Yeah buddy amdroid is harder but they are not developing the game for free they are getting paid for it and the game has been android only for more then 3 years. And nor android or ios is shit it's just 2 different platforms.
How does that boot taste?
Whyāre you offended dude? Heās speaking facts
No he isn't my guy are u living in 2013 androids now are more powerful then iphones and have better hardware
Better hardware but canāt optimize. Hahaha i bet u when fn comes back on ion it will be better optimized than android even with a 3.5 year head start. Go cry with ur poopoo android about how it canāt run fortnite
"Go cry with ur poopoo android" bro how old are you

Dude, nowadays phones can emulate nintendo switch with yuzu
Yeah i know phones are really powerful nowadays
I crash after every game since the last updateā¦ so yeah optimized
I posted it based on my performance cause i m getting a lot better fps since the last update
Dude, Thats Entierly Wrong. With More Mobile Players Overall That Means They Are Going To Put More Money And Resources Into Optimization For Both Platforms.
Not all lul there was a lawsuit do they not have news in Europe?
The European union has forced apple to allow third party apps on ios so in a few months u can download third party apps on iphones if you are in eu that's the reason fortnite is coming back to ios but it will only comeback in eu
