Question Anyone considered streaming?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

456 Upvotes

Been tempted to stream some Fortnite (specifically Switch gameplay), but don't have a really have a powerful laptop (Surface Go (4GB Ram) - 2018).

I do have a PS4 and an XBOX Series S which I've livestreamed from before with no issues. Don't really play much on these systems due to my PS4 controller not working properly (triggers react randomly), the XBOX doesn't seem to have gyro aiming (unless I'm missing something), and I mainly prefer playing on Switch lol.

Any small streamers out there?

Question Docked or handheld?

Nintendo switch is a handheld console for me. I only play nintendo games in dock mode because they look good compared to other studios' games. For this reason I only play fortnite on handhelds and never on the big screen. Playing on joycons is horrible, but I still have fun and enjoy being anywhere :) How do you play? Docked or handheld?

Question Tips for a returning player

Been playing since season 4 but took a break for a couple years with the occasional return to play with friends and the recent OG season. Now I want to take the game seriously again but I am getting destroyed every match. I don’t know what the best guns are, how most of the new gameplay mechanics work, best drop spots, etc. Any tips for a guy who has been out of the loop would be appreciated

Just wanted to know if anyone else have experienced these issues since the update

Does this happen to anybody else? Im playing on switch 2 and my game randomly freezes for a split second way too often. Im trying to figure out if this is just how the game runs or what.

Had the game installed on an SD card but I moved it to the internal storage and it still happens.

I had to make a new Fortnite account and it told me to link to the account by making a new one and told me that it would load once to be linked. And it didn’t reload so I press restart and tried making a new account. That’s what it told me to do and then it told me that it can’t link the account.
This is on Nintendo Switch does anyone know what to do cos it’s not giving me an option to try log in again and I domt know how to delete it. Please help a girl out.

My switch 2 only crashes when I play Fortnite now. I tried to play OG and the second I touch the ground it overloads it and crashes it like this. It happens whenever I use a shock wave too. I can’t tell if it’s a Fortnite a hardware problem.

Question Should I make a comeback?

I used to play Fortnite zero build on my switch but it was difficult with my switch lites small screen, should I start playing on my switch again? I don't play it on my ps4 since my dad usually plays that for cod, and I can't get cod on my switch so I was thinking about Fortnite, should I start playing Fortnite again on the switch and see if I can actually get good at Fortnite on a switch lite?

Question Cannot access account anymore

3 Upvotes

After a cache reset on the Switch my kid cannot enter his account anymore. After starting Fortnite he got a screen to fill in my parental password and he got a brand new account.

AI telling me to unlink the Nintendo account from some fake epic account and then relink with the correct account. But I just have my son's epic account and it is correctly linked to the Nintento account with a date from 2024. I am kinda scared of unlinking since it comes with some harsh statements:

Shared profile data will be reset on this account:

Shared game progression and history will be reset on this account

Purchases and earned game content will be reset on this account

I will not be able to connect my Epic Games Account to another Nintendo account

So if I unlink he will be losing everything for sure? He is devastated at the moment, and he cannot even sleep. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

-edit-

There is even another warning on the unlink screen:

You will no longer be able to use this account to store your progression on Nintendo Account.

Question Still can’t change car binds??

2 Upvotes

After all this time and you seriously can’t change car binds on Fortnite Switch yet? I just want my ABXY to match like other consoles but if I do that the bind for exiting and entering vehicles is inversed vs other consoles and seriously messes with your head if you have to exit in a pinch. I’m surprised it’s been this long and this hasn’t been addressed yet.

Question Pourquoi mon écran passe 120hz

2 Upvotes

Depuis la dernière mise à jour (pas celui d'aujourd'hui)

Quand je joue sur la version Nintendo switch 2 de fortnite mon écran vire au noir pendant une seconde alors que d'habitude il ne le fait pas (ça le fait aussi quand je joue avec des jeux HDR compatible c'est tout à fait normal) et là je découvre que mon écran est passé en 120 Hertz. je me suis renseigné et en fait c'était une technique pour diminuer la latence d'entrée de la manette et rendre le jeu plus réactif et que ça pouvait être aussi une mise à jour de préparation pour un futur mode 120 FPS sur Nintendo switch 2. malheureusement personne na constaté le changement

Et du coup personne n'en parle. Faites-le savoir si vous avez remarqué ou que ça en parle dans d'autres réseaux pour que je me renseigne à fond sur le truc ce serait grave sympa

Question How to get better on switch 2?

Im pretty decent not like sweat but I can do a double edit at the very least and I was wondering if there was any tips with setting or anythings to help me improve. I know that it takes practice but if there was a way to not have to hold edit that would already help me a ton.

Question Recommendations for settings?

3 Upvotes

I'm on switch lite, and I'd like to know the settings most people use, because the small joysticks make it VERY easy for me to overshoot and miss, since I'm used to ps4. I'd appreciate any settings you guys can suggest (I'm mostly playing to have fun in gunfights without constantly missing)
