Not sure if it counts, but the C2S5 audio logs were pretty cool. They were audio logs from Jones that teased the new battle pass and collab skins. For the battle pass ones yoh actually had to retweet the Fortnite account with a codeword to get them. They also sent content creators a physical package that contained items that teased all the collabs for the season.

lmao the they're coming arg was so funny cuz I was in this server of people who really wanted to solve it but REALLY hated the idea of it possibly being a fortnite thing, they like had all the people coming from fortnite pushed into their own channel and shortly after it got confirmed to be for fortnite the server just got deleted 😭
I fucking love chapter 2. I can’t believe that epic went so hard in the theming of these seasons. In chapter 5 like halfway through the season we would get some random collab that ruined the season but back in chapter 2 we would get the theming throughout the whole thing. Like, imagine how much it would have sucked if halfway through chapter 2 season 3 it became an ad for like Pirates of the Caribbean or something. In chapter 2, Epic stuck with the theming even if collabs were added, for example look at chapter 2 season 8 with the Naruto collab.
2:43 the whole premise ist hat the burger head was rifted into the california desert and the entire chunk of the desert it was on came back with it and thats why Paradise Palms is on the map, I couldnt tell you why the burger head is near pleasant tho
I think they did not market the chapter 2 remix event because it made no sense in the storyline, like you cant go back in time with a music thingy (I forgot what the name was) so my only idea on how this would make some sort of sense is if because after the blackhole og event we went into a new reality I think and maybe there the logic of stuff is changed so thats how we got there.

6:10 im pretty sure they didn't have a 3d modelled geno design at the time, so that's why they used gunnar, because you could only see their shadow far off in the background and nobody would notice the inconsistency
Don’t forget that back in the days of Chapter 2 whenever we were gonna get a season with a live event, days before we’d get IRL teasers. We also got IRL teasers for Chapter 3.
If theres one thing fortnite is good at, its the IRL marketing for seasons. Yes, they make some strange marketing descisions, but I love it. They are so good at bridging the gap between IRL and the game in their marketing, like when 4 content creators got iconic fortnite props delivered to their houses.

I would say the weirdest not mentioned in the video is when Fortnite bought out NY Times Square for Ice Spice and Snoop Dogg to perform, advertising Chapter 2 Remix💀
@TheBigCraigd There was a time when the famous Australian content creator "Lazarbeam" took over the official Fortnite Twitter account (for a day i think) to promote his skin coming to the game.
7:01 the comic is included in the Zero War hardcover comic that has all the comics. It’s still overlooked though. I actually have the hardcover and still kind of forgot about it.
I doubt it. Like blonde guy in suit? Sure. See those a thousand times a day. But a blonde guy in suit with the same name as a Fortnite character and looks exactly like that Fortnite character? Not so much. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then what is it?
I’ve said this so many times and I swear nobody has realised but Fortnite also appeared in Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness when he and America crash through several universes. You can literally see the zero point floating around in space. Also I’m not entirely sure but my memory is telling me that this movie released between chapter 3 and chapter 4 when the Fortnite island exploded and left the zero point…floating in space 😭👍
For video game marketing personally, Fortnite's has had some very unique/weird marketing yet very creative to add like making irl crop circlyjust to promote a next season is just insane like no other game has done that! Shits a vibe and i love it! However with remix, i did personally enjoy the teasers. I just loved the creativity with them, y'know?❤
The reason why gunner appeared in the event instead of Geno was because they didnt actually want to reveal who Geno Looked like until the comics. Which in my opinion is really stupid because it would've been sick to see the actual Geno falling in the zero point and then reading about it in the comics.
Here's one of the strangiest marketing stunts that i remember fortnite ever doing, there was a time when the famous Australian content creator "Lazarbeam" took over the official Fortnite Twitter account (for a day i think) to promote his skin coming to the game.
No cuz i do remember the ch2s2 marketing about the phone numbers, but i think from my memory at least it was like an agent role call or something im not sure
1:30 It is because there are only a few people who play Fortnite in Korea so Fortnite made an ad to make Korean people play Fortnite. Well, it didn’t work that well😅
@@TheBigCraigd i have the 2 that are out + the victory royale series visitor but damn it hurts to think about the fact we could have had the rest of them
7:13 Actually that comic lead up to ch2s4 is now physical. You need to buy the graphic cover version of zero war. Its all 5 of zero war comics, some comic covers, and lastly that ch2s4 lead up comic as a bonus Batman zero point has a bonus as well but its to me much cooler since its all concept art for the designs for the zero point cosmetics.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
The Marvel Sony movies made money because the story was not plagued by identity politics and was actually well written unlike Marvel Disney movies and tv shows after Endgame. Example: Netflix's Marvel tv shows and Disney's.
I’m literally about to bust to Meowscles r34.
Thanks for that Buzz
🤨
Thanks you just now convinced me to hate this season. 👏😃
how long you been addicted to porn lil bro? get off the game - jesus forgive you lmao
NNN though, it'll have to wait unfortunately, I'm more of a meowskulls guy
And now an even weirder (but pretty cool imo) marketing stunt, was in the event by renting out ALL OF TIMES SQUARE. The event was still mid.
True on both parts

The comics are great but it would be cool if we got lore in other areas too
The best Fortnite comics in my opinion was
The Batman zero point comics.
And the marvel ch 2 season 4 teaser comic.
I want comics for Fortnite alone, not collabs.
@@TheBigCraigd7:10 it actually came in the last 4 weeks of Splashdown, 1 page per week. Pretty sure it vanished when Nexus War dropped.

I REMEMBER THAT
Fun fact, you actually CAN own the chapter 2 season 4 comic. It's included as a bonus comic at the end of the zero war hardcover.
With the Durr Burger thing, you forgot to mention that Drift is from "our universe" as shown in the marketing for that season :)
Probably not as weird as it might be but I find it weird how some crew pack skins get trailers while others don’t
Actually now that I look back at it, only two of them got a full blown fully animated trailers, the others were just gameplay trailers
After the prelude event fracture needs an apology
Seeing those clickbait channels is so nostalgic

And the lore, oh my fucking god the lore. Absolutely peak.
And then it also had the 3D battlepass screens that were fantastic (that only existed for 3 seasons but were cool as fuck anyways)

If you put in the Konami code on the black hole screen, you could play a Fortnite-ified version of Space Invaders.
Oh yea I remember playing that for a while waiting for the game to come back on.
6:10 im pretty sure they didn't have a 3d modelled geno design at the time, so that's why they used gunnar, because you could only see their shadow far off in the background and nobody would notice the inconsistency
6:08 gunner was a bait and switch placeholder so the model wouldn't have to be added and people wouldn't find out until the comic came out
Don’t forget that back in the days of Chapter 2 whenever we were gonna get a season with a live event, days before we’d get IRL teasers. We also got IRL teasers for Chapter 3.
I loved the chrome ads, although I remember all my friends also complaining the cereal wasn't Unicorn Flakes.
