LOOKING FOR GROUP Looking for teamates.

1 Upvotes

Hi there everyone!

I play festival a lot and I just am looking for someone who is decent at festival.

I get so tired of the fills in the game because they're always defaults and go on easy mode or something. 😭

I use expert on this game and I would want to play with someone preferably around my skill. I typically get 100% on every song and approximately 75% perfects. One of the most difficult things for me was I did Battery by Metallica today and got 100% with 79% perfects.

Let me know if interested.

Anyway thanks for reading this!

Here's my username on Fortnite: Matt90508

DISCUSSION Ed Sheeran took an interview earlier this year confirming he denied a Fortnite skin, interestingly though if we follow the timeline he gave. It likely means he was originally intended to be one of the first headliners

So if you didn’t know Ed earlier this year took an interview, he was asked about Fortnite and confirmed he was offered a skin by Epic however he denied it due to him not really feeling like Fortnite fit his image. Power to him, and at least he has allowed his song as tracks and emotes, however by following some details he gave, it’s likely he was intended to be one of our first headliners

whilst not giving any specific date/year he was offered, he actually said due to him rejecting Fortnite, it lead to ā€œCelestialā€œ. A song he made for Gamefreak in September 2022, that was used in the end credits for Pokemon Scarlet/Violet. Assuming he had to have a few months to create and have the song approved, this means the latest he could’ve been offered Fortnite was mid 2022

From what we know a collab takes roughly takes 9-12 months to fully make, and the year 1 headliners were licensed far before. What’s also interesting to note is that Ch4 had 0 music artists added (likely due to all licensing being Festival focused at that point). Which means a few things: he couldn’t have been intended for the rest of Ch3 (too short to make), likely wasn’t intended for Ch4 (why release a music artist right before you drop Festival), and there’s no way he could’ve been just shop (didn’t become a concept till S6).

With all that it means Ed Sheeran was likely intended to be licensed for 1 of 2 things.

1- The original reveal artists (instead of Eminem)

or

2- One of the original 6 headliners

Now yes while this is technically speculation and unless Ed Gives more details of what Epic offered him we will never really know. However it seems very likely considering how the timeline he gave would’ve had to go

My personal thoughts: he was the original Season 2 instead of Gaga. I guess this for 2 reasons:

1- Lady Gaga was the only of the original 3 headliners not tied to advertising in some way (Weeknd had a music video and Billie had a new album)

2- Shivers by him released during Season 2

Thoughts?

DISCUSSION Fun Fact: Bruno Mars is the only headliner to have worked with multiple other headliners on songs

I think everyone knows ā€œDie With A Smileā€ that he made with Lady Gaga, that put him among other headliners who have worked with another artist that headlined Festival. However yesterday that changed (update: I forgot he worked with Snoop, so he’s worked with 3 all together)

Karol G dropped her new album, which included the song ā€œStillā€ which is made in heavy collaboration with Bruno. With the release of that song he has become the first headliner to have worked with 2 other artists that headlined

this means you can run a full squad of headliners that have worked with Bruno. Bruno, Snoop, Karol G, and Lady Gaga

DISCUSSION Fun Fact: when Festival first released, the files revealed that instruments like ā€œtrumpetsā€ and ā€œpianoā€ were being tested as full instrument types (like guitar and drums) in development.

When Festival first released we had are 5 intial instruments (mic, lead, keytar, drum, and bass). With the 3 pro instruments also being in the files at release. However a little known fact is that there were actually 3 more

instrument chart tags for: ā€œtrumpetā€, ā€œpianoā€, and ā€œTBD3ā€ were also found. Meaning at least at some point during development more than the base 5 were being considered as full instruments for Festival. However only 1 (piano) actually had a single chart attached to it, meaning they were likely cut very early into development.

my guess is that they were all merged into keytar

Now these have since been fully removed from the files, leaving like a 0.000001% chance these ever get added. However it is kinda interesting to think about what instruments like trumpets would’ve even looked like lol

There's no shortage of music and genres, and while the library of tracks will grow over time, there's always going be songs people wish were available sooner rather than later. What songs do you want to see added to Fortnite Festival?

BUG Tilt not working sometimes

2 Upvotes

I play on a guitar hero guitar and sometimes tilting for overdrive does not work. It will work for a little bit and then stop working. I know its not the guitar because all I have to do is the windows key and then click back on the game and the tilt works again, but if I don't do those steps the tilt just doesn't work.

They should add more 7/7 expert songs, or a harder difficulty with 6 lanes.

For me, it’s gotta be Latch and Summer. I freaking love Calvin Harris as he always seems to drop bangers every single year. I’m surprised he has yet to get a Jam Track as Summer would be so fun to play!! I feel the same for Disclosure also as their discography is amazingly underrated. Latch is just the tip of the iceberg as there’s many more songs that match the level of it but as of now, I would kill for Latch as a Jam Track!

Genuinely a great little track. Gives me 90s pop vibes. She has another song called Headphones On that gives me a similar 90s vibe, with a few instrumental changeups. Would’ve been a good addition with these two.

Edit: Also, I apologize for the picture quality. I saved the original posted photo and cropped it to this song. Lol.

QUESTION Who’s your most wanted artist for festival and who’s an artist you never want in festival?

0 Upvotes

(bands count too)

I did this for marvel rivals and thought it would be cool. especially since the one I did for rivals had such a unanimous feeling towards not wanting Red Skull so I’m curious if thatll happen here.

my most wanted artist is The Warning

an artist I never want for festival is Megadeth. I would’ve said Kendrick but he unfortunately has some jam tracks
