@FortniteStatus Seriously appreciate the communication on the design decisions here, looting for a long time has been trivial and not taken much time at all. I do believe that pacing still needs work even still though, storms are still far too slow, large, and non-threatening.

@FortniteStatus Also!! The sweeper shotgun is currently bugged, i assume it’s a bug at least, because you cannot cancel the reload animation by shooting, unlike every other shotgun. You have to wait for the entire reload animation to end before you can fire which makes the shotgun much worse

@NotGrammyNorma @AllyJax_ @FortniteStatus expert got removed bc the mode was broken, sbmm consistently crept in, bots were in almost every region, and it constantly broke even besides that. them calling it expert rather than "classic matchmaking" or smth also killed it bc it made it look like it was hard when its not

@NotGrammyNorma @AllyJax_ @FortniteStatus SBMM in general does not work when a mode doesnt have a HUGE amt of players, like 1m+ constant. too many variables in skill level. expert felt super easy to me, going from expert back to standard OG was like getting kicked in the face

@NerdECrafter @FortniteStatus I feel like this would just result in increased queue times. The game has been out for 7 years. The skill floor is going to be leagues higher than it used to be. It's a battle royale. If you don't put time in, don't expect to win very often. It's okay to lose. A lot.
