Good grief. Is there nothing they won't sully?
Ya, they learn nothing good in this game except killing, building super high platforms and cussing at each other. What a great game. I really hate Epic and anything they spew out ever since they started the PC exclusives. I will not support them at all. Sorry for venting.
@Lordplops What do you mean by that?
Don't play fortnite, but im always down for a fishing mini game in anything.
Why the hell is there a fishing mechanic in this game?! Is this some sort of risk vs reward feature where you make yourself a sitting duck while trying to get items?
Oh dang. I really like the fishing in the game, especially when I use the harpoon gun. Not really useful but there is a chance for that instakill item (very low chance of getting it but if you get you, one shot kill anyone)
It would be so funny if they make it where if you harpoon someone, you could take their gun....that would be game changer to the fishing mechanic.
@Xylnox Those three things have been around forever. Better not support Egypt, while you’re at it.
@Xylnox
I don't plan to support the Epic store.
The last thing I need is ANOTHER log in.
@HobbitGamer I was actually kinda being sarcastic towards fortnite. I just don't like it but that's just my opinion.
@KitsuneNight God, I know. I only buy from steam and gog for digital downloads and from Gamestop, Amazon and Playasia for physical copy of games. There are some other sites for physical copies, if I can't order from my main sites I go to.
I was once under the impression that this was a battle royale game??
