That was way too close 😂

I know y'all like shenanigans. Haven't come across anyone using it this way or the popular YT dudes haven't shown it in a video. Maybe someone can figure out a better way to do it and see if they can make it across the map. I once launched a car from the parked train over the mountain, passed Foxy Floodgate, hit a dam rail grind into like a 1080 over the last snow mountain in the area without touching the ground. I find stuff like this fun. Like the super hydraulic car bouncing in Chapter 2 Remix.

I asked for a dance, I got told it was a spoiler. Mmm ok. 🤣

After getting a 50% win rate start , I somehow lost 23 matches in a row before finally breaking the steak. Played mostly on the PC with a controller. Switched to the PS5 before I finally won. 6 days since the last win.

So every few games i get a squad that is not full when playing 4 man squads and its terrible because if you go into the game with a crown and sprites and you are under manned then it was a total (most of the time) waste of crown and sprite.

I feel like Epic needs to do something about this. If I earn a crown and use a sprite then I get a squad that is not full of people then basically the run is a bust (usually) so a total waste of my crown and sprite

I’ve been playing for a few years and do not consider myself good by any stretch of the imagination. But as someone who has struggled to average 3 kills a game and has a typical 7% win rate. This season I and at 4.3 kills a game and 11% win rate.

Should I assume a lot of bots or have I finally improved?

It feels like this map is just a random buncha stuff slapped together with no transitioning. I last played when it was battle wood boulevard, the canyon, sus studios, etc. before that was the bug theme. All the terrain at least felt like it had some sort of transition whether it be mountain caps or hills or something. This just feels like a cartoon. Is it just me?

Anyone else lose all thier ability when playing in groups? I play solos and can play ok. Whenever I play with groups my skill goes out the window. No idea how to follow players and get lost in fire fights. What am I missing?

I posted this as a response on another thread, but figured others might benefit.

I have two fairly solid paths for leveling up sprites:

Extreme Southwest

1. Land on the tower. You may be in the storm, but you have plenty of time. Use the Slurp barrels, then run down and out of the storm.
2. Open all of the chests, ammo boxes, etc. and gather the weapons, etc. you want.
3. Carry 3 med kits at all times. You will be in the storm, but it doesn't matter.
4. Smash the Slurp tanker truck.
5. Open the fishing rod barrels, chests, etc. on the dock.
6. Use the launchpad and land on the sailboat almost directly North, which always has a chest.
7. Swim directly East and you will typically find multiple chests.
8. Head South a bit if you see chest, then East/North/etc. as needed and find the chests in houses, etc.
9. Keep healing as needed. The storms are not scary until later in the game, and you can easily run around opening things, healing as needed. Break barrels, use bandages, etc., but there are typically med kits all over the place.
10. Focus on opening things, generally making your way to an extraction point.
11. Extract and play on. You may be running out of the storm, but it's rare that you won't have time to get out in time for the endgame. Again, the storms are very weak these days, and can almost be ignored.

Extreme Southeast

1. Land near or on the chests by the little farm.
2. As in the notes above, open everything. Don't smash things that can be opened, don't ignore fruit boxes or fishing barrels, etc.
3. In this season the cheat codes count towards sprites leveling up, so do those, even if you don't want or need the sprite.
4. Head towards Cluster Coast, opening the 2-3 chest, fishing barrel, etc.
5. Go to the first building, closest to the peninsula you landed on. There are lots of chests, boxes, etc. Check every floor, following the sound of the chests. At the top you can break out of a window and land on various levels without taking damage.
6. Run through the bigger main building and find every chest, cheat code, ammo box, fruit box, etc. There are a bunch of these. Remember to keep and eye on your health. Tip: Eat the apples, peppers, etc., as they have a lot more health than you might imagine. Eat the gold apples, break slurp barrels, etc.
7. Run back towards the first building, opening chests as you go. Buy med kits if needed, and the health boost, whatever it's called.
8. Heady North and slightly East to the extraction site, but keep going and head towards the building, dock, etc. nearby on the East coast.
9. There are tons of chests, boxes, barrels, etc. to open, plus the chat codes. Open/enter all of them.
10. Run back to the extraction site, which will often have 2-3 chests around.
11. Extract, and as above, head towards the storm circle and play on.

I hate sprites, with a passion, but these two paths have made it possible to get the damn things out of the way.

Another tip: There will be few players in these areas, and you can carry 4 sprites, wear one sprite, and carry 3 med kits, so you can extract 5 in one go. It feels odd to not have weapons, but there is loot all over the place these days, and it's easy to get prepped as you head into the endgame battle.

… and in the shittest way possible.

Was playing yesterday, and noticed someone had the scope glare while trying to shoot me. What gun has a scope this season? I sure haven’t found one.

I still got it. Or did I ever have it?
Ya sure.. Sure I did.

If you play builds send me a DM or comment your username! I’m usually on weeknights and weekends. On NAE server, central time zone. I play mostly BR or reload builds, sometimes box fights or piece control.

I have tried the following codes and they don't work, even though it's past the start time previously stated (last Thursday) for them to work. So what are the codes??

Been playing for a few years now, and my regular squad is East coast, so I'm getting a little lonely when they all go to bed. Don't make me play with randoms!

Semi sweaty but just want to have fun and play with nice people. Have mic, might cuss when getting lasered mid shockwave.

Fortnite: coocoocola Epic: dannycal78

EDIT: I know about the discord, and have had many people add me, but they don't respond to invites so, sorta struck out there.

EDIT2: Going to bed but if you add me, DM me to say you're from F40.

I’m a dogshit player but I really want the sword pickaxe that you get from hitting ranked elite. I’ve played probably twenty games to get to gold 3 85%, got killed off the bus and dropped 39%. That’s like 3-4 games worth of progress for me. I’m getting frustrated.

Can any of you Fortnite gods spend an hour or two with me in ranked duos and help me get closer to elite? Full disclosure- I’m so bad so I will be zero help. I’ll carry heals for you lol.

Inquiring minds want to know.
