Type of thier content is called repetitive they do that to attract kids to watch it over and over and treat thier audience like 4 year-olds @Joe-yr3wx
the biggest problem in my opinion is 1 year long chapters... like this drains all the ideas twice as fast, and epic just reskins the pump and tac shotgun by slightly altering stats and calling it a brand new weapon.... chapter 3 season 1 was a goated season because the updates were really good and it actually added useful and unique items like the shield keg or heavy shotgun rework
The one thing I don't like is the heavy shotgun rework, I wish they still had the old version available (I'm aware they did in creative for a little bit but then took it out) and now that we have the breacher and the woodstake it doesn't make sense in my opinion to keep it as is
EXACTLY. I hate the yearly chapters. It feels like these chapters, their live events, their seasons as a whole, and their seasonal events are just pushed to the sideline to make room for development on the next Chapter. I wish we could've had stuff like the Striker Pump for one more chapter, just to get the full feel of it.
Hey. The Huntress is -easily- the best DMR we've had. at LEAST it has a niche, the bullet travels significantly faster and has less bullet drop than even the Reaper Sniper rifle. At least it does its ideal job well enough now.
The automatic sniper was a funny little thing when it was added as well, although unfortunately it didn’t stay around very long and hasn’t seen the sun in years since
I would prefer ANY DMR over the new one. Even that trash one with the 14 shots because at least all that one and the other ones can be used semi-decently up close. The new one can’t even be used at range! You know a DMR is bad (with DMR standards) when it can’t even be used up close WHILE STANDING STILL. Also the DPS on the green versions of all the DMRs have a higher DPS then the mythic huntress so what does that tell you about the new one?
Good video, The reaper is the most OP weapon since chapter 5 came out, a simple "fix" would be to revert projectile back to hitscan, and they had the changes ready to go if enough people complained about it in season1 but never happened. Was also hoping they vaulted it season 2 but it almost feels like the "sniper" problem is even worse now even with the nerfs.
The only thing worse about the new sniper is legit the bullet drop, and all the snipers before were pretty weak and very slow compared to the current sniper
hitting headshots with the reaper isnt satisfying to me because ik that the shot was probably a few inches off anyway, i checked replay and it doesnt actullu have to touch you
I feel like there’s a slight problem to this type of thinking though. ( sorry this is so long btw ) Because comparing weapons then vs now is not fair due to players skills increasing immensely and new mechanics being added. And players adapt to old style weapons too quickly and the hype for them only last like one or two weeks, meaning that Fortnite needs to release crazier weapons or release more casual weapons. And in terms of calling weapons op like the hollow purple, they’re not really broken, they’re actually quite easy to counter. Ppl just say they’re broken bc they challenge the player to do more than just boxing up to avoid trouble, you just have to doge out the way and laser the player while they’re standing still for 5 seconds, it forces the player to think. Also the community is very biased when it come to calling things broken, for example the pump & havoc shotgun any weapon besides a sniper being able to one tap or get an opponent on 5hp in a single shot is way too broken yet no one complains about them and actually want them back in the game.
@@Lettuceemoticon the wings definitely need a buff or two but besides that I think they’re… okay? Nope, that’s a lie, THEY ARE TRASH. That’s why I never pick them up. You can like ‘em but it’s just too easy to laser someone who’s using it and too easy to get lasered

He‘s really comparing the current sniper and the purple ball with the old ar the full video. But why is the purple thing even in here?? It’s creative… and why isn‘t he comparing the sniper with the Mechas or the pump sniper or the double pump???
Thank you for making this! This is an issue that is not addressed enough. I would say the main problem with constantly adding new guns is that they will inevitably be a better/worse version of the base guns. This is how you end up with guns like the Harbinger SMG or Warforged Rifle. They are just the Striker Rifle and Hyper SMG with more recoil (and THOSE guns are just worse versions of the normal AR and SMG), and don’t need to exist for any reason except to have something changed. Chapter 5 honestly didn’t even need new guns, they could have just used guns we haven’t seen in a while to make the base loot pool. But instead, they make ripoffs of other guns, and then add bullet drop to make them objectively worse just so that they can call it a new gun. With hundreds of guns in the game, they need to get comfortable re-using old guns, because having all new weapons in Chapter 8 is gonna be pretty lame.
I like how the game doesn't change the meta every week. Someone who has a packed schedule and can only play once or twice a week can stay in the game more easily and doesn't need to figuer out new stuff all the time. Long time players that were once at school, are now working and don't have as much time to do that kind of stuff anymore. People that have to choose what to play in their limited free time should not be forced to learn about something new every week or two.
Fortnite is weird in that way. Metas themselves aren't healthy for a game but the shifting of it is. If the weapons and mechanics are too balanced, the skill ceiling just goes up and up... The skill of experienced players grows and grows and new/returning players are defenseless and it doesn't help that Epic is continuously adding new mechanics. If there was a meta, both top tier players and less experienced players would be able to use them with the same proficiency.
…what? The addition of fizz mid-season shock the meta, the recent auto shotgun nerf, they are always tweaking the game. But I totally agree, I’d much prefer a meta where you can really practice and not have to learn a whole new mechanic or item before it is vaulted.
Personally I disagree. I feel like this season has actually been REALLY good and consistent when it comes to good weapons that aren’t OP. Like the DMR is really balanced, and the BEST DMR we have ever had. I always pick it up when I get the chance. Or take for example the Handcannon. It is a tad bit underwhelming at first, but it gets the job done. It is not bad, but it is not OP. A perfect balance. The Chain of Hades is really fun to use, good damage, but it is not necessary to have in your inventory. And the wings of Icarus are some of the most BALANCED mobility items we have EVER had. Yeah there are some items that are FAR too OP, like the Sniper and maybe the Burst SMG, but overall I really like the weapons this season.
id say the wings are underpowered if anything. making your hotbox so gigantic is a huge trade off for what is essentially a slap barrel in the air. I feel similarly about the hand cannon, it doesn't do enough damage in my opinion, in zero build you can headshot someone twice and not kill them if they have so much as a flowberry and a few seconds to regain overshield. I used to run the DMR exclusively. I hit my shots more often, and it shot faster. I started using the sniper this season (I just didnt carry a long range weapon last season) because of the amount of times I got headshot sniped out of nowhere, and wanted that for myself. chains of hades are sick as fuck and I love their dynamic
But like… shield bubble jr. All 3 fish types. Nemesis AR. Ranger pistol. Normal flow berries. Yeah, I like that chains give a new and fresh way to play the game, but they are kinda bad. Sniper is so oppressive that the strongest DMR yet and the hand cannon STILL can’t compete. also BRING BACK GRAPPLE AAAAAAAAAA
I 100% agree with your opinion! Weapon variety is good for the game because it allows you the opportunity to use any item and have fun! Being forced to use the same overpowered item every match makes the game feel stale, frustrating, and less memorable. Great video!😀👍
I liked Chapter 5 Season 1 because of the medallions, that season I had returned to play after not playing since Chapter 2 Season 5 which was 3 whole years and I have never played on pc before, it helped me learn how to play the game along with giving me an advantage to the other players in the game allowing me to gain confidence, get motivation to get better, etc. This new season is awesome and all but I think 3 shotguns is overboard along with the other guns being overall weird and not viable to be picked up and less beginner friendly.
I think the most important aspect of a fortnitr item is whether or not it's fun. I truly think that catering to the esports community had hurt thr game in the long term, there's just not a lot of fun items. Everything has some insane drawback for "balance" to the point there's no reason to carry anything but the usual load out of ar/sniper/shotgun When they DO add something cool, it's always locked behind a boss or there's only one of them and fhat... sucks. That's why the AoT, MHA, and JJK items are cool: everyone could use them. I'd rather get blasted by Hollow Purple than boxed up and one pumped for the 18th season in a row
The “new guns” are mostly just stat changes to already existing weapons, if they released weapons that actually had unique niches and features, it would make a lot more sense. There’s also SO MANY preexisting guns that haven’t seen the loot pool in years that would fill niches these new weapons try to fill
I am seeing a common theme, when these more powerful weapons come out, the community is always split. Me personally I love fun and interesting powerful weapons ( I kinda suck at the game tho) but some people don’t, mostly what fits your play style.
Feels like they need to stop making weapons almost. Like exotics got dusted and the vaults are overflowing with items. Feels like we could reintroduce a bunch of weapons and just go with that.
I personally believe that these new weapons actually have a lot of quality shotguns feel much smoother and easier to use smgs feeling carefully crafted with a good set of ARs in between an actually good dmr nice snipers and a well balanced modding system the only weapons I personally find annoying are the chains of hades the lightning bolt and maybe the frenzy auto as these require no skill whatsoever
@@brooklyn8745 not about that, about almost everything else like “quality shotguns” or “smoother and easier to use SMGs” and “a good set of ARs” and “an actually good DMR” These are all lies. In the game right now there are two types of shotguns Broken and trash Every single moddable SMG is ABSOLUTE TRASH except the drum gun… when it has both recoil mods… and no scope There is only ONE GOOD AR THAT RELEASED IN CHAPTER 5 and that is very obviously the striker and the warforged is literally just the same thing except with completely uncontrollable recoil and uncontrollable spread which means you can’t EVER use that AR at mid or long range unless it has an AR scope and both recoil mods And then the new DMR, well… The new DMR In mythic has less DPS then every other DMR in green which is so bad I would prefer a Chapter 3 AK for long range
i agree on a lot pf points tho fortnite in chap1 had a quantity of items but they where all usable , utilitaries, and vehicules where godly special too
great video, yes fortnite has changed so much that it doesn't even look the same compared to lets say 2017 fortnite, they definitely do prioritized Quantity Over Quality, especially in the sense of cosmetics. As the season change there are some seasons I just dont play because the game isn't appealing, yes they do have to keep updating the game and adding/removing items to make the game interesting but damn, adding things like Mechs,Gojo's purple hollow, Emblems, and AI that can snipe you 100's of meters away is just an L for me
i agree i find the same for the handcannon and chains of hades like some guns will delete anyone using them like a sniper or shotgun but i find it fun to pull someone in then handcannon for a burst of dmg then just shred with my chains i may suck at the game but i find it fun when i do kill someone
Honestly, i'd rather see fortnite take a ' funny joke haha ' approach to the game where they do silly collabs and add some goofy weapons or mechanics in the game. At least itll be more chaotic and a lot more fun imo.
My biggest gripe would be mostly the frankly useless Assault Rifles / Submachine guns variants. (Not saying they are useless to use, but useless to create). For exemple, instead of using the thunder burst smg, they could have just put the old burst, tweaked it for the season and allow mods on it, just like what happened to the hand cannon. Same goes for the harbinger that just feels like the regular smg. In my eyes it should not be "new things or same things everytime" but at least a rotation of lootpool, there MUST be enough weapons now to justify reusing and repurposing the old ones right ?
I would disagree here though because adding things to the lootpool constantly gets returning players to use the old weapons and provides a new experience for the new players. Furthermore, the variety of unvaults makes sure not to make sure the meta sprays one way such as in Chapter 3 with the spray meta for about half a year. Chapter 5 is trying not to recreate Chapter 4's crucial error which was a lack of Loot Pool changes or rather a lack of effective Loot Pool changes.
We don’t even get old weapons in the loot pool anymore, it used to be just reskins but now it’s remakes that have bullet drop and are moddable. For some weapons like the SCAR, that’s an okay balancing change but then we also got ANOTHER AK, a bad version of the submachine gun with high recoil, bullet travel and low damage, an AR that looks like a sniper, shoots like a slower DMR and has bullet travel that’s slower then the sniper, both pre debuff and post debuff. Then the next season, they add a new AR with some of the highest recoil and spread of any recent weapon
I feel like the season has a great aesthetic and a lukewarm execution. Vaulting weapons and items they added weeks in advance just doesn’t seem practical, crash pad jr and enforcer, and vaulting mobility items like grapple (and the tmnt mythics ig) leaves you with even less mobility options. There is not enough freedom to play how you like. Meta means you have to pick up warforged, gatekeeper, sniper, shockwaves and a choice of healing items that have been in the game for more than half a decade (oh and fizz. I like fizz.)
epic is actually trying to bring quality content though. For example, they reduced the sniper spawn rates to make it harder to get one, and buffed the DMR's fire rate and damage so people will start picking up the DMR
For me the two biggest issues with the game currently are the lack of truly engaging and interesting seasonal content and the art style’s huge degradation over time. Every few seasons we get a new set of weapons that almost always fill the exact same role of previous items. And when the art style (in my opinion this started in chapter 3 and got way worse as time moved on) started to stray away from the cartoony, warm and charming look that made the game so appealing in the earlier years, it took away from Fortnite’s unique atmosphere. The game has so many issues but those two bother me the most. Unfortunately it’s never gonna change, Epic games has realized that the majority of their player base (children) don’t care about seasonal quality so they can just slowly make fortnite more dull and homogenous as time moves on.
Someone finally says it I missed balanced meta An example hades chains is powerful yeah but still leaves you a siting duck so you must use it with caution and is why I pick it up over a Lightning bolt
Lol you really have something personal with the purple ball 😂 Also it‘s just that you have all weapon kinds after 6 years and epic has to make new weapons. And Chapter 1 (and 2) had far more broken weapons, don‘t lie :)
Unpopular opinion, Add every single broken over powered weapon in the game at the same time, The broken weapons could counter the others, imagine the chaos
I miss seasons where the guns stayed the same and most new stuff was just the map changes and people wouldn't complain, people are just more greedy nowadays
Mujy...you made 1 fatal mistake... ...the frenzy auto I mean yeah at least they nerfed the falloff even more but whats the point of using a shotgun at mid range when they prioritize close? dont even get me STARTED with oscar's mythic man..
@@Weird.Crocodiledoes that matter? It’s so broken it’s basically the mechs in gun form If you get too close, you’ll die in less than a second, if you get too far? Well, then they’ll push you and THEN you’ll die in less then a second
@@Themoo_atcows not really, If you can build a bit ur good, plus with the gatekeeper shotgun being an improved hammer pump (In fire rate) you can easily outclass most frenzy auto users, its been a lot of time since I last got murdered by one, and I also recently won a fight just cuz I picked the gatekeeper over the epic frenzy (Im neither a great builder not good in aiming)
Honestly this season is actually pretty good especially if they just vaulted the sniper already but epic wants little Timmy to snipe away in bushes! They definitely are playing both sides when it comes to the sniper’s tbh. Last season was an absolute joke and definitely the worst season ever for zero builds!!!
i disagree with this line of thinking a lot. there hasn't been a dip in "quality" just because you think a certain weapon defines the meta, players are just more skillful now and use that weapon to its highest capabilities. Your argument for changing weapons to hitscan to balance the sniper is kinda tone deaf, and doesn't consider that the game is in one of its healthiest states in recent memory right now because of the lack of hitscan in a game with such a high skill ceiling. Think of all the first person rifles that were MUCH more of a problem than the snipers. I'd argue that the current season is one of the most balanced we've seen, probably since chapter 3 season 4. Yeah, there are "meta" picks, but every single item in the lootpool (consumables included) has its place and can get you a win if you build around it properly. DMR and harbinger smg included.
I agree, btw out of what I’ve heard. The reason to why they just cut chapter 3 right in the middle is because they created some new graphics system or something. They thought it would be a good idea to get a fresh start to show off their new graphics with chapter 4, so it’s basically a ch 3 pt2. That’s why I have a theory. I think that ch 4’s different seasons just were different ways of advertising their new graphics. As they want to show as many sides as possible, they made the seasons different and unique. That would explain why the seasons felt so random and different from the rest of the storyline.
Before I watch the video, I found that to be the case with the new "games" as they really lack a lot of depth. Festival and RR are arcade styled games but RR lacks because of that and Festival suffers from having to buy tracks if you want to practice a single song to get the highest score on. Most people still refer to them as modes. Battle Royale changes feel unnecessary as well as if they were to listen to the feedback of OG instead of rounding up players for their metaverse launch they'd go back to their routes, right? No, as they have a completely new team that continues to add spaghetti code say to the ui along with gameplay bugs as they're building off of 6+ year old code. The movement changes along with animations lack polish and thought as the proportions make no sense a lot of the time and then there's physics added onto them which makes hitboxes wonky from mid and above distances. The removal of strafing as well feels like they're purposefully making everything feel unresponsive and excruciating so they push you away from WHAT HAS BEEN PLAYERS MAIN INTEREST AND HAS STILL SHOWN TO BE AFTER OG WITH 10 MILLION PLAYERS. They don't make sense.
Fortnite then:we add good map changes,good weapons,giod mobility! Fortnite now:shi we add a spam shotgun,some broken ass AR,uhhh some wings that aren't even useful, some broken mythic..and useless guns!
I can't stand listen this, tbh I don't know am I clicked but you are fully wrong. Now you can call me as Little Timmy but I am playing this game from start Chapter 2 and sometimes broken weapons helps keep comunity alive. Think, always playing with same gun, just boring. Every season another weapon means you have to creat new tactics. "Doesn't feel like Fortnite". It is so silly to say that bro. Alright I miss Chapter 2 too but imagine using same weapons all time. Game will become monotone.
like chapter 4 season 2 with the AOT mythics, Overclocked pulse rifle, mythic havock pump, miles morales web shooters, katanas, twin mag smg and red eye ar. This lootpool was good because weapons like the pulse rifle were broken beyond comprehension.
this is exactly what i was thinking with this and last season, they keep adding new stuff which is cool but the new stuff is so horrible compared too the other weapons that no one is going to pick them up and it's gonna feel like they weren't even there to begin with. like the new smg this season? better than the last regular smg but not even close too the burst. new ar this season? it's more balanced than the last one but still not even close too the burst. hand canon? that's cool but we still have snipers. like i'm grateful we're getting content so regularly this season but some of the content li means nothing when most people are just gonna pick up the op weapons from last season instead. it feels like we either get a super op weapon or a super mid weapon and there's no inbetween
@@brooklyn8745 i am, hipfire for the burst is more acurate than ads fire on the warforge. i really love how balanced the warforge is but i just can't pick it up when a green burst with a laser sight beams people easier
The huntress dmr is a decent long range weapon. The reaper is well balanced with a decent second between each shot. The warforged has a big recoil leading it to be not super useful The lightning is avoided by running behind walls with a vulnerable state easy to counter The wings are balanced, the user is very vulnerable. (I say this as someone who plays primarily zero build, so builds aren't necessarily to counter any of the weapons)
@@tomgames8616 a reasonable person thankfuly, i agree with you, i also play zero build, and I get stuff that Zeus Lighting can be game breaking, but saying that the game is not in a good state cause it has a lot of content is a smart as it sounds. Glad we share oppinion
@@yaniobi "the zues lighting breaks my builds", yeah, now try dealing with it in zero build mode. If the items are fine in zero build, snipers are mostly a problem because you don't know they're there, they're fine in the build mode. The build sweat just don't like they can't hide in their builds.
@@tomgames8616 completly agree, i reamember having a Blast back when the Ice king sword was in the game, didnt give a shit that it was op, it was hype af, fornite players who cry about stuff like this are too bad to play CSGO Instead.
these last few seasons werent horrible or anything, but i could say i (personally) felt a decline in the quality of content we use to have huge volcanos and ships in the sky now the map changes feel kinda mehhhh
@@epicraptor777 I played the season meta was most balanced now we got 2 shotguns and a pump that’s useless season 1 was getting raped by the auto shotgun gatekeeper can beat the auto but still broken just three shots
Bro it is so funny, since I don’t even agree with Mujy, but I KNOW that you’re just salty because he is right 😂. Like personally I think this season is REALLY good when it comes to balanced weapons, but you false reporting just proves his point.
Chapter 4 season 1 and 2 were good but since then i just stick to stw or creative box fights etc this season being a fan of greek mythology i was hyped only for a huge let down battle pass wise and wepons wise sorry for my bad english not ky first language .... just want a fun and blanced season

Long time players that were once at school, are now working and don't have as much time to do that kind of stuff anymore. People that have to choose what to play in their limited free time should not be forced to learn about something new every week or two.
Fortnite is weird in that way. Metas themselves aren't healthy for a game but the shifting of it is. If the weapons and mechanics are too balanced, the skill ceiling just goes up and up... The skill of experienced players grows and grows and new/returning players are defenseless and it doesn't help that Epic is continuously adding new mechanics. If there was a meta, both top tier players and less experienced players would be able to use them with the same proficiency.
…what? The addition of fizz mid-season shock the meta, the recent auto shotgun nerf, they are always tweaking the game. But I totally agree, I’d much prefer a meta where you can really practice and not have to learn a whole new mechanic or item before it is vaulted.

It got its range reduced from “what am i looking at” to pretty long.
Personally I disagree.
I feel like this season has actually been REALLY good and consistent when it comes to good weapons that aren’t OP.
Like the DMR is really balanced, and the BEST DMR we have ever had. I always pick it up when I get the chance.
Or take for example the Handcannon. It is a tad bit underwhelming at first, but it gets the job done. It is not bad, but it is not OP. A perfect balance.
The Chain of Hades is really fun to use, good damage, but it is not necessary to have in your inventory. And the wings of Icarus are some of the most BALANCED mobility items we have EVER had.
Yeah there are some items that are FAR too OP, like the Sniper and maybe the Burst SMG, but overall I really like the weapons this season.
fr these people are mad that some weapons are FUNNN that's the point !!
id say the wings are underpowered if anything. making your hotbox so gigantic is a huge trade off for what is essentially a slap barrel in the air. I feel similarly about the hand cannon, it doesn't do enough damage in my opinion, in zero build you can headshot someone twice and not kill them if they have so much as a flowberry and a few seconds to regain overshield.
I used to run the DMR exclusively. I hit my shots more often, and it shot faster. I started using the sniper this season (I just didnt carry a long range weapon last season) because of the amount of times I got headshot sniped out of nowhere, and wanted that for myself. chains of hades are sick as fuck and I love their dynamic
Play ranked, and you u will soon change that opinion, I'm sure of it.
This is like the worst dmr lmao
But like… shield bubble jr. All 3 fish types. Nemesis AR. Ranger pistol. Normal flow berries. Yeah, I like that chains give a new and fresh way to play the game, but they are kinda bad. Sniper is so oppressive that the strongest DMR yet and the hand cannon STILL can’t compete. also BRING BACK GRAPPLE AAAAAAAAAA
I 100% agree with your opinion! Weapon variety is good for the game because it allows you the opportunity to use any item and have fun! Being forced to use the same overpowered item every match makes the game feel stale, frustrating, and less memorable. Great video!😀👍
I liked Chapter 5 Season 1 because of the medallions, that season I had returned to play after not playing since Chapter 2 Season 5 which was 3 whole years and I have never played on pc before, it helped me learn how to play the game along with giving me an advantage to the other players in the game allowing me to gain confidence, get motivation to get better, etc. This new season is awesome and all but I think 3 shotguns is overboard along with the other guns being overall weird and not viable to be picked up and less beginner friendly.
Good thing you didnt play in Chapter 4 season 3 which had 4 shotguns, the Havoc Pump, Drum, Lever Action, and Sharptooth (OG pump but trash)
@@ely9266 I saw people play the season and it seemed to look fun but not at the same time, but current season is ok
I think the most important aspect of a fortnitr item is whether or not it's fun. I truly think that catering to the esports community had hurt thr game in the long term, there's just not a lot of fun items. Everything has some insane drawback for "balance" to the point there's no reason to carry anything but the usual load out of ar/sniper/shotgun
When they DO add something cool, it's always locked behind a boss or there's only one of them and fhat... sucks. That's why the AoT, MHA, and JJK items are cool: everyone could use them. I'd rather get blasted by Hollow Purple than boxed up and one pumped for the 18th season in a row
The “new guns” are mostly just stat changes to already existing weapons, if they released weapons that actually had unique niches and features, it would make a lot more sense. There’s also SO MANY preexisting guns that haven’t seen the loot pool in years that would fill niches these new weapons try to fill
dmr: another useless dmr
also dmr: only gun khanada will use in scrims
yeah the dmr is actually really good this season, you need really good aim to run it instead of an ar tho
@@coolguy14604 if it’s so good then why is the mythic’s DPS lower then every other DMR’s when on their lowest rarity?
I am seeing a common theme, when these more powerful weapons come out, the community is always split. Me personally I love fun and interesting powerful weapons ( I kinda suck at the game tho) but some people don’t, mostly what fits your play style.
It’s bcuz ranked and pubs r the same
@@SosaIDKyeah if they had diff lootpools i would like it more
@@coolguy14604 Yh I love getting lightning bolted or sniped every other game
Feels like they need to stop making weapons almost. Like exotics got dusted and the vaults are overflowing with items. Feels like we could reintroduce a bunch of weapons and just go with that.
Honestly, just bring back the OG bolt action sniper rifle, if you miss too much with it either get better or don’t pick it up at all
After everyone started using the new sniper so much, that sniper is basically unusable because of its bullet speed
@@Themoo_atcows ikr it feels horrendous
Hitscan weapons FTW❤
Fr that's the one thing I want back
Tbh I doubt we’ll ever see a hitscan weapon ever again and I hate epic so much for this
I personally believe that these new weapons actually have a lot of quality shotguns feel much smoother and easier to use smgs feeling carefully crafted with a good set of ARs in between an actually good dmr nice snipers and a well balanced modding system the only weapons I personally find annoying are the chains of hades the lightning bolt and maybe the frenzy auto as these require no skill whatsoever
I really hope you’re joking with most of this
@@Themoo_atcows fr. sniper is not broken.
@@brooklyn8745 not about that, about almost everything else like “quality shotguns” or “smoother and easier to use SMGs” and “a good set of ARs” and “an actually good DMR”
These are all lies.
In the game right now there are two types of shotguns
Broken and trash
Every single moddable SMG is ABSOLUTE TRASH except the drum gun… when it has both recoil mods… and no scope
There is only ONE GOOD AR THAT RELEASED IN CHAPTER 5 and that is very obviously the striker and the warforged is literally just the same thing except with completely uncontrollable recoil and uncontrollable spread which means you can’t EVER use that AR at mid or long range unless it has an AR scope and both recoil mods
And then the new DMR, well…
The new DMR In mythic has less DPS then every other DMR in green which is so bad I would prefer a Chapter 3 AK for long range
@@Themoo_atcows fr
i agree on a lot pf points tho fortnite in chap1 had a quantity of items but they where all usable , utilitaries, and vehicules where godly special too
great video, yes fortnite has changed so much that it doesn't even look the same compared to lets say 2017 fortnite, they definitely do prioritized Quantity Over Quality, especially in the sense of cosmetics. As the season change there are some seasons I just dont play because the game isn't appealing, yes they do have to keep updating the game and adding/removing items to make the game interesting but damn, adding things like Mechs,Gojo's purple hollow, Emblems, and AI that can snipe you 100's of meters away is just an L for me
i agree i find the same for the handcannon and chains of hades like some guns will delete anyone using them like a sniper or shotgun but i find it fun to pull someone in then handcannon for a burst of dmg then just shred with my chains i may suck at the game but i find it fun when i do kill someone
Honestly, i'd rather see fortnite take a ' funny joke haha ' approach to the game where they do silly collabs and add some goofy weapons or mechanics in the game. At least itll be more chaotic and a lot more fun imo.
Bronze no builds
this would be fine if they would have that in pubs only, but for some reason epic loves having us ranked players suffer too (⚡️⚡️)
@ 2:48 to skip to the actual content
My biggest gripe would be mostly the frankly useless Assault Rifles / Submachine guns variants. (Not saying they are useless to use, but useless to create).
For exemple, instead of using the thunder burst smg, they could have just put the old burst, tweaked it for the season and allow mods on it, just like what happened to the hand cannon.
Same goes for the harbinger that just feels like the regular smg.
In my eyes it should not be "new things or same things everytime" but at least a rotation of lootpool, there MUST be enough weapons now to justify reusing and repurposing the old ones right ?
bro so true i think of this too like why make the thunder burst smg when we have the burst assault rifle
burst ar is so good even after its nerf
I felt the enforcer ar come inside
I would disagree here though because adding things to the lootpool constantly gets returning players to use the old weapons and provides a new experience for the new players. Furthermore, the variety of unvaults makes sure not to make sure the meta sprays one way such as in Chapter 3 with the spray meta for about half a year. Chapter 5 is trying not to recreate Chapter 4's crucial error which was a lack of Loot Pool changes or rather a lack of effective Loot Pool changes.
We don’t even get old weapons in the loot pool anymore, it used to be just reskins but now it’s remakes that have bullet drop and are moddable.
For some weapons like the SCAR, that’s an okay balancing change but then we also got ANOTHER AK, a bad version of the submachine gun with high recoil, bullet travel and low damage, an AR that looks like a sniper, shoots like a slower DMR and has bullet travel that’s slower then the sniper, both pre debuff and post debuff. Then the next season, they add a new AR with some of the highest recoil and spread of any recent weapon
Fortnite used to be an old boat, but bit by bit, it got more broken, and more pieces replaced.
Now, it’s no longer the same boat as it was.
Meh, there’s a broken shard of glass or two somewhere in that boat from the first one
I feel like the season has a great aesthetic and a lukewarm execution. Vaulting weapons and items they added weeks in advance just doesn’t seem practical, crash pad jr and enforcer, and vaulting mobility items like grapple (and the tmnt mythics ig) leaves you with even less mobility options. There is not enough freedom to play how you like. Meta means you have to pick up warforged, gatekeeper, sniper, shockwaves and a choice of healing items that have been in the game for more than half a decade (oh and fizz. I like fizz.)
ok weird ending with fizz
epic is actually trying to bring quality content though. For example, they reduced the sniper spawn rates to make it harder to get one, and buffed the DMR's fire rate and damage so people will start picking up the DMR
For me the two biggest issues with the game currently are the lack of truly engaging and interesting seasonal content and the art style’s huge degradation over time. Every few seasons we get a new set of weapons that almost always fill the exact same role of previous items. And when the art style (in my opinion this started in chapter 3 and got way worse as time moved on) started to stray away from the cartoony, warm and charming look that made the game so appealing in the earlier years, it took away from Fortnite’s unique atmosphere. The game has so many issues but those two bother me the most. Unfortunately it’s never gonna change, Epic games has realized that the majority of their player base (children) don’t care about seasonal quality so they can just slowly make fortnite more dull and homogenous as time moves on.
I honestly like this season… and that DMR is good, honestly better then the other DMRs
Someone finally says it I missed balanced meta
An example hades chains is powerful yeah but still leaves you a siting duck so you must use it with caution and is why I pick it up over a Lightning bolt
Lol you really have something personal with the purple ball 😂 Also it‘s just that you have all weapon kinds after 6 years and epic has to make new weapons. And Chapter 1 (and 2) had far more broken weapons, don‘t lie :)
Unpopular opinion, Add every single broken over powered weapon in the game at the same time, The broken weapons could counter the others, imagine the chaos
I miss seasons where the guns stayed the same and most new stuff was just the map changes and people wouldn't complain, people are just more greedy nowadays
Mujy...you made 1 fatal mistake...
...the frenzy auto

but whats the point of using a shotgun at mid range when they prioritize close?

@@Themoo_atcows not really, If you can build a bit ur good, plus with the gatekeeper shotgun being an improved hammer pump (In fire rate) you can easily outclass most frenzy auto users, its been a lot of time since I last got murdered by one, and I also recently won a fight just cuz I picked the gatekeeper over the epic frenzy (Im neither a great builder not good in aiming)
This is true because I died to a grey nemesis when I had a legendary nemesis when he had no shields this season makes no sense tbh
maybe you just missed all your shots?? you need to actually land your shots to kill your opponent
See, the thing is, a bullet has to actually hit your target to do damage
Forgot to say I hit most of my shots and still it didn’t kill him sorry lol

@@Themoo_atcows fr. the reload time
Honestly this season is actually pretty good especially if they just vaulted the sniper already but epic wants little Timmy to snipe away in bushes! They definitely are playing both sides when it comes to the sniper’s tbh. Last season was an absolute joke and definitely the worst season ever for zero builds!!!
i disagree with this line of thinking a lot. there hasn't been a dip in "quality" just because you think a certain weapon defines the meta, players are just more skillful now and use that weapon to its highest capabilities.
Your argument for changing weapons to hitscan to balance the sniper is kinda tone deaf, and doesn't consider that the game is in one of its healthiest states in recent memory right now because of the lack of hitscan in a game with such a high skill ceiling. Think of all the first person rifles that were MUCH more of a problem than the snipers.
I'd argue that the current season is one of the most balanced we've seen, probably since chapter 3 season 4. Yeah, there are "meta" picks, but every single item in the lootpool (consumables included) has its place and can get you a win if you build around it properly. DMR and harbinger smg included.
shotguns this season have been ass i miss the simplicity of them

Chapter 5 and chapter 1-4 are two completely different games, wish epic would stop trying to create a different playerbase
I agree, btw out of what I’ve heard. The reason to why they just cut chapter 3 right in the middle is because they created some new graphics system or something. They thought it would be a good idea to get a fresh start to show off their new graphics with chapter 4, so it’s basically a ch 3 pt2. That’s why I have a theory. I think that ch 4’s different seasons just were different ways of advertising their new graphics. As they want to show as many sides as possible, they made the seasons different and unique.
That would explain why the seasons felt so random and different from the rest of the storyline.

Before I watch the video, I found that to be the case with the new "games" as they really lack a lot of depth. Festival and RR are arcade styled games but RR lacks because of that and Festival suffers from having to buy tracks if you want to practice a single song to get the highest score on. Most people still refer to them as modes. Battle Royale changes feel unnecessary as well as if they were to listen to the feedback of OG instead of rounding up players for their metaverse launch they'd go back to their routes, right? No, as they have a completely new team that continues to add spaghetti code say to the ui along with gameplay bugs as they're building off of 6+ year old code. The movement changes along with animations lack polish and thought as the proportions make no sense a lot of the time and then there's physics added onto them which makes hitboxes wonky from mid and above distances. The removal of strafing as well feels like they're purposefully making everything feel unresponsive and excruciating so they push you away from WHAT HAS BEEN PLAYERS MAIN INTEREST AND HAS STILL SHOWN TO BE AFTER OG WITH 10 MILLION PLAYERS. They don't make sense.

do you want to run around with sticks and stones in game?
I can't stand listen this, tbh I don't know am I clicked but you are fully wrong. Now you can call me as Little Timmy but I am playing this game from start Chapter 2 and sometimes broken weapons helps keep comunity alive. Think, always playing with same gun, just boring. Every season another weapon means you have to creat new tactics. "Doesn't feel like Fortnite". It is so silly to say that bro. Alright I miss Chapter 2 too but imagine using same weapons all time. Game will become monotone.
like chapter 4 season 2 with the AOT mythics, Overclocked pulse rifle, mythic havock pump, miles morales web shooters, katanas, twin mag smg and red eye ar. This lootpool was good because weapons like the pulse rifle were broken beyond comprehension.
this is exactly what i was thinking with this and last season, they keep adding new stuff which is cool but the new stuff is so horrible compared too the other weapons that no one is going to pick them up and it's gonna feel like they weren't even there to begin with. like the new smg this season? better than the last regular smg but not even close too the burst. new ar this season? it's more balanced than the last one but still not even close too the burst. hand canon? that's cool but we still have snipers. like i'm grateful we're getting content so regularly this season but some of the content li means nothing when most people are just gonna pick up the op weapons from last season instead. it feels like we either get a super op weapon or a super mid weapon and there's no inbetween
are you implying a burst smg is better than the warforce ar?
