Slapping a squad solo on Fortnite, and sharing my thoughts on yesterdays server fiasco.
<html>
<p>Finally, Minecraft Steve can fight back against all of those damn Roblox kids! Yeah! Wait, that doesn't sound right...Oh, well. This is just a quick clip that I edited a little bit of me getting a nice/strange win on Fortnite from a week or so ago. Basically all of the action happened quickly, so there wasn't much footage that I actually needed to edit besides one cut and some sound effects for fun. Still was a nice win, and again I have to say that it seems like anytime I get in a 1v3 situation I somehow end up winning which just seems odd to me, but I'm not going to complain I guess.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sorry for the lack of a review today, I posted earlier and mentioned at the end that I probably wasn't going to be able to do one. I just feel like I'm getting hit with 2 things at once, and I honestly feel like a dried out human raisin at this point. I'll probably try to get one out tomorrow, but for today I'm just lazing around in my bed for the most part and going to sleep and try to rest up. Though, I do have a few things I'd like to talk about in this post in regards to Fortnite.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I'm sure everyone who plays on a console noticed some huge issues tomorrow, and you were not alone there my friends. The game had so many horrible issues going on yesterday that it was getting to be literally unplayable at times. And, that's not even counting the 1 hour wait time I had before I could get past the main menu of the game to actually play. Now, of course there were lag issues when you got in game, but that's not even what I'm speaking about when I say unplayable.&nbsp;</p>
<p>For example, throughout the entire day you couldn't play with your friends for the most part. You'd either have to play solo mode on your own, or just keep trying over and over and keep your fingers crossed that the Fortnite gods might take mercy on you and sprinkle a lag filled game onto your dark, dying souls. I didn't really get hit with this until the evening when my friend got online and wanted to play, but it took us about 45 minutes to find 2 games to play due to how many search attempts I had to make to get in.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Another issue that was going on besides that and the lag were that it seemed like things weren't loading in properly at times. What I mean by this is that both my friend and I experienced being shot through houses and other structures, even when the structure was still in tact. For anyone who doesn't play Fortnite reading this, that shouldn't be possible, yet it certainly was for those few games last night that we played. There were also plenty of times where we couldn't pick up items off the ground, and I honestly had to wonder if the item spawn system was broken with how many gold items kept dropping for everyone on the map. But, there seemed to be a lot of issues going on with weapons and items, including doing any challenges involving guns since they often wouldn't complete once done.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I've also noticed that the sound design seems to have come apart, as it would cut out entirely for up to 45-60 seconds where you could hear absolutely nothing. Even when it's not doing that, they've basically removed the enemies footsteps where now you can only hear your own and your teammates, which I find pretty annoying and hope that wasn't done intentionally. I have to hope that it wasn't, as they clearly stated they were wanting to just lower the teammates footsteps and not just get rid of them entirely for the enemy team. I guess we'll see, however.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Hopefully the server downtime that happened last night for a few hours has fixed most of these issues for everyone, though knowing how long it takes for them to update and fix the game I'm sure most of the non-server crashing issues are still intact and will be in the game for weeks to come. But, at least we're seeing some decent progress from time to time with updating the game and it seems like EPIC will at some point get their shit together and make a working game that doesn't just try to smack its genitals directly into my face.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Okay, well that's enough of my ranting. Hope you guys enjoyed the clip. I'll try to get a review out tomorrow. Until the, take care and thank you for stopping by to check out my post!&nbsp;</p>
