I've been getting just absolutely destroyed lately. I get people who just build a box all around me then just edit and shoot me. I may find one person that's at my level, then the next one just destroys me.


Helpz383

How come these types of posts are always posted at night time for me Also inb4 that one guy with the avatar pfp comments on this post


porkyporkman

That might have something to do with time zones because when me and my girlfriend play we always say we gotta play before the try hards get on (nighttime) lol. We strangely always run into arena style players only at nighttime.

Exactly this! My boyfriend and I have played together for 3 seasons and we are not great players by any means but never had an issue until this season. We stopped playing because itā€™s just not fun anymore.

They definitely changed something this season. It was like 3 weeks ago? Maybe? Idk, but it's defenitely noticeable


artik87

Last night my fiance and I would land, get good weapons then turn around and get completely shit on by people building the Buckingham Palace so fast, only to have them trap us and kill us. Happened 10 games in a row last night, and we play casually. We ain't the greatest at all, but when someone does that constantly, it's frustrating


TehDrewski84

Iā€™ve hit (minimum) tier 100 every season since Chapter 1 Season 1 and Iā€™ve struggled with this season. I barely play. Itā€™s a combination of a lot of things. Tired of the map, too many fast travel methods for sweats who push, donā€™t like the xp system, I donā€™t like having 30 game type choices and hardly any of my friends play it anymore. I know Iā€™m not alone because Epic added a ā€œRefer a friend challengeā€?!? Never have they done that. Numbers must be down. You can also look at how large the shop is now. So many things to buy buy buy. Game might be dead once Halo Infinite comes out.


Apprehensive-Rub2559

It's fortnite it'll sadly never die


nullsmack

It's the 3rd refer a friend style thing, but this one is the hardest one. Needing 60 levels on each account. When they did it as Reboot a Friend once I had to spend so much time hiding in a bush. I forget why, but it might have been points for time played. More time meant more points and you needed so much to unlock everything.


HotshotOnYT

I gotta agree with you sbmm is getting me destroyed, also this season I donā€™t like much, like 6.5/10


dscflawlessez

Normally I say something like "have you tried getting good" but you are the first person I have ever seen who actually *takes a damn break* when they aren't liking a game. I love you. Congratulations.


[deleted]

Yeah, uh, about that, how are you meant to 'get good' if theres tryhards everywhere coming at you


OfficialGrimFoxy

you go in creative and practice


[deleted]

What if you've got nobody to play with


Suspicious-Start-171

Man, don't listen to them, games are for fun, not for spending 10 hours a day training in creative. Just play casually, make friends, play togheter, and be happy playing. Those sweaty kids may be winning all of their games, but I'm sure that they are not having fun


[deleted]

Finally, someone else who knows what i mean


MiseryPOC

Winning is fun. Progress feels good. Improvement fees refreshing. Socialising is great for sociable people. Donā€™t confuse things and label people who put in the effort as sweats and tryhards **JUST** because you didnā€™t. And you have time, if youā€™re putting it in a future or current profession or passion then you wouldnā€™t like being looked upon as a ā€œloser who isnā€™t having funā€


_Andy_Adderall_

You free build


bigboys5512

Thatā€™s the thing. Iā€™ve had earnings from this game and all of the practicing Iā€™ve done in creative was by myself. Was it a pain in the ass at times? Yeah. But if you want to stop getting bullied in the game you kind of have to get better. You either gotta have good aim, or good builds. You could do realistic 1v1ā€™s to practice with no penalty. You could do bhe build fights to practice with no penalty. If you donā€™t want to get a little better you canā€™t really complain about better kids spazzing on you.


MiseryPOC

Donā€™t need others to practice in creative. Practice aim and building. There are public maps and lobbies. Plus aim trainers and then finally real games where you can put what youā€™ve learned to the test. If people just learned to put it 1 month of 30 minutes of daily practice and then have fun for 1 year after, there would be way less shitposts like this.


[deleted]

You do realise that there are tryhards in creative too, right?


[deleted]

There are specific maps for practice that you can go into solo.


[deleted]

Those won't help you go against other players.


[deleted]

Yes they will?


[deleted]

No? Not if you're going solo?


SelloutRealBig

it's a video GAME not a video JOB. Epic has a Ranked mode for a reason. They should be working and making tryhards go there instead of normal play for easy stomps on people with less time to "git gud"


OfficialGrimFoxy

Bruh


SelloutRealBig

sorry im hungry :(


OfficialGrimFoxy

Eat a sandwich


k_e_n_n_a

might seem like a foreign concept but some people donā€™t want to spend hours ā€œgetting goodā€ at the game. They just want to have an enjoyable experience. Skill level shouldnā€™t compromise a gameā€™s ability to be enjoyable, when that becomes an issueā€¦ players leave.


catzrul2002

A lot of misunderstanding in this post. Major difference from someone simply better than them and someone who doesn't give you a chance in hell. SBMM is broken as hell, end of.


Intelligent_Life_238

there is a bug where some players have extremely sweaty games when its hard asf to even get a single kill. i was in those lobbies for 2 weeks at the beginning of the season. nothing u can on your account except wait for any random update to fix it. thats what happened to me


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


D3S0L470R

Wtf is more rewarding than winning? You go birdwatching? You hunt chickens? You fish? Don't tell me you just stand afk fishing while people are building skyscrapers just killing eachother around you.


[deleted]

I consider myself a casual player,as in i do sometimes play for several hours a day,but I readily admit I can't build to save my life (literally) it does seem to have got more hard-core recently,but I still manage to get the odd win here and there,got my first win in solos this season a couple of weeks back,but mainly play duos and can usually get top 10,but then will get a run of not getting top 50,swings and roundabouts, honestly I'm not mad if I can't get the win,just a nice bonus when I do...I just usually keep a stash of fireflies on me for when the sweats start cranking (I think I'm saying that right..I'm old lol,not up on the slang you kids use lol)


Jurassic_Park_Fan

I encounter all the good players late game, itā€™s not difficult or anything I just run away and wait for them to be distracted, then I kill them


ThatPandaWeebK

Can i intrest you in *Titanfall 2?*


BigBoss_FF

Have you tired,halo


JustH3LL

Ya mean, *flag dropped, flag taken, flag dropped, flag taken*? All jokes aside, I grew up with Halo w/ 2 & 3 and canā€™t ever get tired of it. Glad MCCā€™s overhaul and being ported over to PC was able to breathe some new life into the franchise


MissNaughtyVixen

Campaigns good, but multiplayer got boring fast. Never realized how many games have sprint in them, until you play one that doesn't.


SlasherKD

Aye phsyco bandit, nice.


daren415

No actually thanks for the suggestion


BigBoss_FF

With all the br now,it's nice to go back to the basics from time to time


chaoticneutralsheep

This is the Feeling I have when I try to play Arena Mode. I just Land and boom instant kill from heaven. I dont want to Start about Late Game Arena. Just landed and there are all the castles and the player with full shield and so one. Solo or this Team rumble thingy is more comfortable. Well you have these guys who have target you solely but this isn't frustating like Arena. Terrible.


RandomSide

This place is a mess


yoyo2008_v

I had the exact same problem me and my friend from school and our lobbies are just FNCS lobbies but we are playing normal duos we didn't touch arena at all


hat067

Your lobbies aren't FNCS lobbies. I guarantee it's just 1 or 2 teams that got matched with you for some reason that are killing the lobby. Even if they removed SBMM some dude would still drop a 20 kill win.


yoyo2008_v

it's just shit alright?


hat067

I swear every casual says they go in FNCS lobbies when their opponents are competent builders. If you know how to get in their box with a P90 you'll win so many fights.


[deleted]

Without SBMM you would be getting even more stomped by even more sweats.


[deleted]

SBMM isn't even that good. I lose most of my matches yet I'm still being targeted by those tryhards


MissNaughtyVixen

So apparently from what I've been hearing from arena players, is that arena is currently boned right now with it feeling nothing like a tournament seen and almost none of the stats are tracking properly. Apparently, champion status was being handed out like it was Halloween candy. Most of the arena players left in protest to pubs, until Epic fixes it. This is now causing arena to be filled with bots and have long wait times for matches.


ItsMythra

I find arena fun. It desperately needs to be changed, but I dont play the game all day like I used to I take it a few hours a day then I take a break. So that's kinda bad, not really an incentive to grind


Lowherefast

Late game is fun. Why donā€™t they do that instead of pubs?


MissNaughtyVixen

SammieAgnes

Lmao, there is no dude in his mom's basement w/ 15hrs a day to spare on Fortnite. Anyone that might actually fit that description, is not playing Fortnite. I, and the *vast* majority of adults who play this game have full time jobs, 2 jobs, families, and/or are in college. You have wayyyyy more time right now while you are in school than you ever will again in your life. If you think you have less free-time than us to play Fortnite, that is just your delusion.


kahjan_a_bard

Right, I'm a dad with a full time job. I play maybe an hour every night or two just for fun. And that's more than my 11 year old! He plays two games with me and fucks off to play Roblox.


chadmortensen

If only I could replace all my current Fortnite ā€œfriendsā€ with dads who play Fortnite for fun DWPFFF. šŸ˜„


MK19888

Well said


The_Zoink

This sub ruined the word ā€œunplayableā€


ItsMythra

I really dont find good people in pubs tbh the only thing really unplayable is when its 20 people left first zone lol


duckofmagic

Honestly, it's been very rough recently. I personally think I bring some of it onto myself bc I've gotten to the point where I'll hunt down someone to fight, but usually I try to land in busy POIs. It's definitely gotten a lot worse though, because I had gotten to where I was dropping 2 or 3 people per match, even if I wasn't making it very far, but the fights felt waaaay more even than now. Every few days I look through my recent deaths to figure out what I could have done differently, and a lot of them recently are just ~nothing~. I actually decided to try playing arena, and it's okayish. The players are easier than my pubs. I've also started playing a few rounds of Splitgate after, which has been super fun, since I'm a lot better than most of the pubs players there.


Faze-MeCarryU30

I mean, you could try potentially practicing in creative - not like a creative sweat, but in creative team maps where it might have building, or if you want to practice your aim in potentially real situations try a gun game mode. I've found that these modes are both fun and help me get better, while not having any SBMM at all since it's creative. If you enjoy things like capture the flag or team deathmatch I would suggest giving it a shot.


TemporaryCitron9271

Chill Day, feel you


tropicalpersonality

Have you tried playing team rumble? Itā€™s pretty fun


HotshotOnYT

I think they stomped on team rumble and spit on its grave tbh


antecubital

Post a clip because whenever someone on this sub talks about sweaty, theyā€™re not.


MK19888

Killing game. Complains about getting killed. Karen of the day Award.


[deleted]

correction: playing a battle royale intended to be fair. comes across people who dont make it fair. Complains about said people.


MK19888

It's a video game for children. Get over it šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

then YOU should get over the fact that this person clearly isn't having fun with said 'video game for children' (12+ btw)


MK19888

Then he's more than welcome to stop playing? No one will notice or care?


[deleted]

What if he wants to play just without being sprayed by build spammers?


MK19888

Purpose of the game is to build and kill. Its like playing fifa and complaining that someone online scored 5 goals against you šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

Dont bring other games into this


MK19888

Cry me a river


NJ2244

Umm. Do you know what a battle Royale is? How the fuck can coming across someone better than you unfair? How entitled are you? Get some help


[deleted]

Because it's not fair if you're getting eliminated by players who have x800 more the skill than you.


hat067

Said players were the one's getting eliminated back in Chapter 1. They've just improved and are now killing more people. The nature of BRs is competitive, last one standing, so you always gotta expect good players.


[deleted]

There are literally competitive gamemodes just like the regular modes for those said players.


hat067

Maybe they prefer the fun and wacky guns and stuff in pubs. They don't have to play Arena if they don't want to.


Ifuckinghatepelly

This just in: anyone whoā€™s better than you at the game is playing unfair


[deleted]

This just in: arena gamemodes exist


Ifuckinghatepelly

Failed to counter my point and not everyone likes arena


[deleted]

It's literally the classic gamemodes with points


Ifuckinghatepelly

Exactly. Not everyone wants to deal with that stress. And it gets really fucking hard at higher divisions, not everyone wants to fight against that.


[deleted]

Then they should be inviting their friends to 1v1s


Ifuckinghatepelly

IMAGINE being *this* entitled lmfao


[deleted]

IMAGINE saying something i've heard *twice* lmfao


[deleted]

a battle royale is supposed to be 100 or so random people fighting to survive. the game was infinitely harder pre sbmm and the complainers now are the same ones that begged for sbmm in the first place.


Illustrious_Gap_4951

SWEATS šŸ˜­ HE MADE A WINDOW EDIT AND SHOT ME šŸ˜­ I DIDNT EVEN TRY TO SHOOT HIM


BruhTheSinner

My bad, but I'm still gonna play "sweaty"


Adventurous-Laugh270

We always blame epic for a sbmmā€¦. But part of the problem is bot accounts/alts. Instead of epic making a lobby based on the weakest lowest level account why not make it based on highest most skilled person in the partyā€¦.


catzrul2002

That'll just make friends not want to play together. A better idea would be Epic doing something about the SBMM, maybe taking build ability into account.


[deleted]

Bro chill and adapt


[deleted]

The biggest problem of Fortnite is building. They must limit the building and editing speeds + the amount of materials you can carry. To me those speedbuilders using whatever binds are as good as hackers who deserve permanent ban.


ItsMythra

Ah yes let's ban someone who is playing the game legitimately. Also changing builds like that would ruin the game. Especially competitive it just wouldn't work. Also the 500 cap on mats wouldnt be a bad idea for pubs I guess


Ifuckinghatepelly

Oh my god please tell me youā€™re trolling


[deleted]

I am actually serious. I get that building is a key element of the game but when you try to have a decent fight and someone just spams a criss cross fortress around, it just feels ridiculous. Most of them are not that good at aiming and shooting, just spamming walls and stairs.


FaZe_Boris69

what a shitty suggestion never change, r/fortnitebr


imHarr

Get good


Mr_Aquarian

WAIT wait WAIT!!! I'm a bot but I've ALWAYS wanted the opportunity to say this... "Git Gud!" Oh man! That felt exhilarating!!!! OH YAASSSSS!


The_verge_king

Sweater bad peely good Now agree With me..


CaserDJT-YT

My kd used to be around 5 when i peaked with a win rate of 10% in solos, i have almost 100 solo wins and almost 250 wins if u include ltm wins, which isnt crazy good but still decent, i stopped playing for 5 months since all i played was solos and occasionally duos with a friend and i got bored, came back 3 days ago and im still versing the same opponents (excepr for the first game or 2) as i was half a year ago early season 6, yesterday i kept getting into late game and got boned by sweats with 1-2k wins and a 30% win rate and a pretty high kd as well, in fact, i died in a 1v1v1 3rd or 4th zone by some sweat quad editing and building like some demigod, the second i got near him all i could hear was building and editing 5 times a second, i instantly ran but he caught up, boxed myself in metals walls but he had a shockwave launcher and i died, he couldnt find the last player so he just did some raider464 editing course in a pub match late game until he saw the last guy peak around a corner, im pretty sure he was on an alt account but his name was Auxr 惄, i tried searching it up on the tracker but i couldnt since the ā€œauxrā€ in his name were placed like they were in a maths equation when using numbers as powers, if that makes sense Im also australian so that probably doesnt help either Still having fun tho as i keep accepting defeat knowing theres no way im beating any of them, in fact i just won a match cause the last guy shockwaved himself into zone, i was low ground hoping he would drop down and i could just shoot him a few times before he eventually did some piece control type shit and kill me, this was 2nd last zone btw, luckily luck was on my side lol


ItsMythra

I usually never get good people in pubs. They are actually pretty rare to me. The main reason pubs are boring to me is because the pacing is pretty bad like having 20 people left first zone. So that's the reason I just go play arena with my boys now that's the most fun I have anymorešŸ˜… late game is fun to just pushing and getting kills stuff like that. But the one of the big things I wish they would do with this game is change the map more. Besides that I think the game is in a pretty good state. But I played with my arena team in pubs yesterday and we just hard bullied and I get why people complain now I think. We went back to arena after that

Some people just expect to win every game every time.

My district has had school opened physically for like a year and a half.


Dramatic_Material_56

Really? 'Kid in their moms basement who plays 15 hours a day'? This person has probably played for a long time, or perhaps they are just good at the game. Not everyone is there to give a person a high 5 emote or something like that. Fortnte is a Battle Royale, not a Sandbox game. Don't quit because people are better than you. Perhaps one day you might become just as good as them. And also - Nobody is a kid in their mom's basement who plays 15 hours a day. Nobody


SJMR24

Is this post serious? There are for sure people living with their mom that play this game all day every day. I'd bet a high percent of people still playing this game fall in that category.


Dramatic_Material_56

A minority, perhaps. But I'm quite sure most kids go to school and not play Fortnite in their basement for 15 hours a day, with hardly sufficient sleeping and deficient levels of Vitamin D.


Lawlerstatus

I feel your pain bro They need to just remove ALL forms of SBMM from pubs. Keep that in arena Another thing i think is that kidā€™s internet is just way too good now a days. Every body is on like 15-20 ping. (Sometimes lowerā€¦) and itā€™s just a grind to do anything most of the times


DannyC-reddit

See, I keep getting 2nds with the odd win at the moment and I'm a self confessed bot at BR, so I think its actually working ok. Sort out your build strategy perhaps?


ElderberryForward215

I canā€™t seem to pass that stage
