Fortnite and Fortnite Battle Royale's Halloween Update: Fortnitemares! (BR Progression/Leaderboards/Cosmetics. New PvE Zone)

Those battle royal updates sound great, was expecting to be able to get cosmetics from boxes by playing the game though so that’s a bummer.

Is this basically free for PS4? I'm so confused about how this game works...

The BR mode is free yes.

The PvP mode, Battle Royale is completely free. The PvE mode is the one that's sold for like $40. But that also includes Battle Royale in the package.

Damn, free Battle Royale. I may go download this.

I can't wait for this!!!

It's a ton of fun. Cosmetics are going to make it even better.

battle royale is pretty good but I don't really like the crafting piece even though that's the foundation of the gameplay

Is character customization planned for the Battle Royal? Ive been enjoying it.

Edit: need to read the op shiiiiiiit

I'm trying man. I've been watching these cats play it on twitch and I'm in awe at how fast they build stairs and cover. I just gotta get used to the controls.

Sweet I have really been waiting for this. I have 2 wins in solo and 1 in duos but I have been kinda holding off until they add some more meat to the game mode.

Not sure if I will ever finish the save the world game, its pretty tedious.

Auto Pick Up! Yes I love this update already. Auto pickups for ammo, resources and traps.

Guess I'll try this on PC. Can't see it topping PUBG tho.

Probably not but this is a pretty big update for getting closer to what the game should be. They are working on vehicles now I guess as well.

Had it downloaded for a while now but only tried it for the first time. Might take a while to get used to the control scheme but I'm digging it so far.

Trying to persuade my friends to join in, can see how fun this can be.

I've played both. 195 hours in PUBG. 70ish hours in Fortnite.

I wouldn't say one tops the other. They both provide very different experiences.

PUBG is more of a realistic-type mil-sim, at least when it comes to the movement and gunplay. Much larger map. Vehicles to get around easier. Finding and securing a defensive location is crucial since having a superior position over your opponent grants you a big advantage.

Fortnite is a much more "arcadey" experience. Most guns are hitscan with RNG accuracy (minimized by crouching and not moving). The map is smaller so you run into people more often, which gives the game a faster pace than PUBG. It's much more difficult to camp in 1 place because cover\buildings\forts can be destroyed. The building mechanics have all sorts of uses. If someone starts shooting you in the back, it's great to drop a wall between the two of you in order to let you get a better position for a more even 1v1 fight. I also like building giant forts in the sky and shooting people down below with rockets.

Personally, I prefer Fortnite right now. I love the building mechanics, and I was getting a bit tired of the PUBG mid-game where I rarely ever saw enemies and would eventually get shot in the back by someone I didn't see.

Well shit exactly what I was waiting for outside of realistic ballistics. Time to go murder some virtual people again I guess. But PUBG did just implement first person squad for OCE as well...choices.

I have been playing this on and off, it's really fun my only real complaints is the overall RNG nature of the initial phase and the gameplay isn't as tight as it could be. Hopefully both things are improved as time goes on, the Halloween stuff seems cool too.

This comparison is much appreciated, thanks man

IS this supposed to be out for PS4 yet? Not getting any new patch when I check for updates.

edit: nvm it comes out tomorrow

Good good

They really fucked up the controls. I died 3 times last night because they aiming was so screwed up on PS4. The sensitivity is just insane now, not sure why they had to do that, it was fine before.
