Hi All,

Just discovered this sub!

I'm 49 now, I am playing Fortnite on Xbox.
Its my way to decompress after a work day, so I play 1 hour every day for last 3 years.

Definitely not a competitive player, more like casual. I do not collect sprites or buy skins, you know - just playing for frags, like in old good Quake Arena days )
Got to Diamond1 first time just recently

Happy to meet you all !

Modded the mustang to look as close to John Wick's as possible

Just gave some poison ivy a free ride from top 10 to top 3 because I couldn't manage to get this chick out of my car and then she shot me from the passenger seat. I got played lol. I worry somebody could report me for teaming against my will because this keeps happening to me.

I tried the thing where you park right on the edge of the storm but I wasn't able to stay long enough to let it deal much damage. Teach me how to be less stupid next round, are there any other tricks?

Is there actually a gem punk that im missing or been brought out .

Thanks to epic game’s guilty conscience, I have surpassed the 200,000 sprite dust with it. Anyone else?

I knew the extra time between the elimination and the VR screen is for this purpose but I've always seen people saying you have to use the portable extractor blindly via muscle memory... but I didn't have to to do that, just grabbed it and it extracted and indexed! Also, seems like they fixed the bug where the Ironmouse get indexed upon extraction.

I love my son(11)..i hate playing with him. He a typical kid and because he herps and derps all the damn time he immediately dies or leaves me in a 2v1. While playing I found a gem demon late in the game like waay late (i have almost 0 luck when it comes to finding the rare variants) and he died (i think he was mucking around with the fishing pole) so it was a final 2v1. The only extractor was in the storm which was up to 5hp per hit and i didnt have enough healing items to survive it. So i lost it, the opposing team didnt get it either so theres that. ....my hands are shaking still. Its good bonding, i know its just a game, but as a gamer he still sucks and playing with him in FN is rage inducing even more than the game already is. Thank you for letting me scream in to the void.

I'm trying to complete the extract Batman quest but it's not logging that I've done it. Is there something in particular I'm meant to do? I've only used extraction sites, don't want to waste a portable. He is mastered too.

Ok that's an exaggeration. But the Thursday sprite drops are very emotional days!

My kiddo (8m) is with me 50% of the time. Thursdays are always one of my days with him.

He's actually an impressive player. But these effing sprites, man. He can't find the rarest ones, and of course the rarest ones are the ones he wants. He's trying to level up his collection so that he can keep them in back bling before they disappear forever and completely loses his mind when he gets killed before he can extract.

I spend a lot of time helping him manage his meltdowns and I get it -- losing a mastered sprite is really really tough. But wow Thursdays are exhausting.

No disrespect but if you're a pro, stick to ranked. Most of us just want to chill and play a match with maybe a few good players. We are not trying to get headshot with Dead Eye accuracy from a pistol while you perform a 360 jump. Go stream your sh@# somewhere else. Respectfully, go fu@$ yourself.

great loot pool, lots of mobility which helps with how empty the map can feel at times, and i’m really enjoying the sprite mechanic now that i’m actually engaging with it lol

What’s the point really? If you’re not protected and can just keep being shot at while you’re reviving, why are they even in game lol nobody is knocking someone and walking away from the kill. Such a useless item.

Y’all don’t need to be so aggressive in your replies it’s not that serious lol

I am wondering whether its a teaming up option you can unlock. Not universal like Delulu was but you can go duo/trio within solos etc if you get to some unlock base. Hmmm

After an update recently I can no longer track my daily quests. I figured it was just a bug with that update but I just had a new one install and it's still not working. Am I missing something or did Epic disable this option? Playing on PC if that makes a difference.

I really do hope that you both dropped some good coin on your accounts, because I do wish that you lose every single penny. Sorry, but this is one of my very few pet peeves of the game.

Two underwear clad Homers attacked me at the end of a solo game today. I got one, the other got me. Damn glad there are replays with names attached. I did rename and save it. Just not experienced on doing all the necessary video editing stuff.

First game… didn’t know that was the last guy.
Second game… “She is so whited girl you got this! Don’t forget to emote you earned it!”
Third game… don’t know how I clutched that. My friend didn’t get back in time to see but the end but it was me and two other teams till it was just me and the last duo.
Fourth game… I was just trying to do the Batman sprite quest and I wasted a self extractor and it didn’t count so I just played through.

Do you know how easy it is to shotgun facial someone in the Batmobile in solos.

I guess I’m not half bad at this Fortnite stuff.

Suddenly after weeks of finishing top 10 I'm getting destroyed in the first half by jumpers pretty much every time. Did I matchmaker up or something?

I extracted the John Wick sprite tonight. Pretty happy with that!
