Anyone been playing this? Just got into it after a few people recommended and it is so addictive! If you don't know what it is, it's a 100 player game where you all skydive onto a map and you have to be the last one standing, you go around and find the best weapons, stuff to craft shelters etc. to aid you in getting to #1.
Best of all it's FREE and on PS4 you don't even need to pay PS Plus to play online multiplayer 
There's also cross platform play with PS4, PC and even mobile! It's also available on Xbox One. It's something a bit different to what I usually play and I usually don't like shooters that much so wasn't sure I'd like it but it's so addictive, it's that "just one more" mentality when you get really high one time, or last a while and end up making a stupid mistake so want to test your strategy again and be a bit more careful

I downloaded it this afternoon! I got to 4th in my first match by just camping out until I couldn't. Seems pretty fun, the sort of thing I was kind of wanting from PUBG but wouldn't pay what they're asking, so that it's free is really good.
Will have to go back and see if I can figure out the building stuff.
Posted by: Liаm 26th March 2018, 02:32 AM
I got to 5th on my 3rd or 4th go in the same way, that's what makes it so addicitve because I think "if I had just been a bit more vigilant and seen that trap I could have got top 3 or won"
I think the building stuff will be integral to winning and consistently doing well so I'm gonna need to properly figure that out too!

Have a look at Darwin Project, it’s like Fortnite & PUBG but significantly better. There’s a “Director” role too where you can decide which parts of the map are blocked off, start manhunts on certain players, give out loot, and other buffs/disadvantages like in The Hunger Games

Terrible terrible game.
Posted by: Iz 26th March 2018, 03:54 PM
How constructive of you. Why?
The building thing seems a little ridiculous and campy visually but it does add another layer to the depth, despite the pastel colours.
Posted by: Shia LeMuffQueef 26th March 2018, 04:44 PM
Campy colours and crappy gameplay. The gameplay is the worst I have experienced on q next gen game ... After FF15, of course
Posted by: Liаm 26th March 2018, 04:47 PM
I mean it's a free game, it's not gonna be next gen world renowned graphics It's also still early access. It's supposed to be just a fun mutliplayer game.
Shocker, Michael hating something that's currently popular
Posted by: Shia LeMuffQueef 26th March 2018, 05:18 PM
If you want a fun multiplayer where you can camp out or try and win, try FridayXIII - much better than this mess.
Posted by: blacksquare 26th March 2018, 05:31 PM
Mess?
It's a free online multiplayer game that is literally receiving weekly updates and patches from the developers.
There is a difference between something not being your taste and an actual mess.
Posted by: lotita. 26th March 2018, 05:42 PM
I absolutely love this!!!!! I’ve only had a VR on teams before but have got second a few times. The key to winning is definitely building and I’m still quite bad at it
Posted by: Cqmerqn 26th March 2018, 08:55 PM
I just downloaded it to try

I downloaded this the other week, been meaning to try it out. 
Posted by: HarryEzra 31st March 2018, 01:34 AM
I actually really want to give this a go at some point but my sister is using my ps4 atm as hers broke 
Posted by: cqmisa 31st March 2018, 08:17 AM
Take it off of her!!
Posted by: cqmisa 31st March 2018, 04:09 PM
Omg how do I play it?
Posted by: Liаm 31st March 2018, 04:10 PM
What do you mean by play, like start a match or controls? That's the annoying thing it doesn't give you any controls so I died a couple of times my first tries because I was trial and erroring the controls although I should have goggled really
Posted by: cqmisa 31st March 2018, 05:38 PM
Start amatch
Posted by: Liаm 31st March 2018, 05:49 PM
After you've signed up, when you start it up you should just have to press triangle on PS4, idk the button on others but it says in the bottom right corner? Like you have your avatar thing, at the top of the different menu sections left is other shit and then bottom right it says whatever button to start and you can change mode (solo or group etc.)
Posted by: cqmisa 31st March 2018, 10:38 PM
Thanks I will give it a go tomorrow
Posted by: cqmisa 1st April 2018, 09:52 AM
The version I downloaded says early access? :/
Posted by: cqmisa 1st April 2018, 10:30 AM
I came 6th place in my second game and only lost due to being caught in a storm 
Posted by: cqmisa 2nd April 2018, 09:24 PM
I am LOVING this. I came 3rd today, and I thought I had a good chance of winning, but I fell victim to 2 teamers
Posted by: DalekTurret32 2nd April 2018, 09:57 PM
Haven't played the game but I saw this hilarious image on Instagram involving it: https://www.instagram.com/p/BgmKfeQAGHU/
Posted by: Cqmerqn 7th April 2018, 05:59 PM
I just finished 2nd just through camping :’)
I didn’t even move once I landed, I got incredibly lucky
Posted by: Bartier Cqmerqn 14th April 2018, 12:36 PM
Anyone finished 1st place before?
Posted by: Liаm 16th April 2018, 01:51 PM
My highest is 5th because I hid for absolutely ages and nobody came, when they did (there was about 15 people left) I had one of those trap things outside the door so that damaged them then I shot them with the pump shotgun when they came in Then I had to move because of the storm and I just went to another place to hide and ended up being ok until 5th
Posted by: ubɹǝɯbƆ 27th April 2018, 08:58 PM
I got my first #1 today
Posted by: Liаm 18th May 2018, 07:50 PM

Shook at this being available for Nintendo switch
Wish I never got rid of my Switch now
Posted by: Jay ☆ 27th June 2018, 02:37 AM
I've been playing it on the Switch! It really is addictive (can't say I'm particularly good at it though 
)
Posted by: JSG 27th June 2018, 05:15 AM

Posted by: HarryEzra 27th June 2018, 11:17 AM

Posted by: JSG 27th June 2018, 12:23 PM
I'm not very good either lol. I'm better with Splatoon & Paladins 👌
Posted by: Jay ☆ 28th June 2018, 01:24 PM
Definitely need to play this with friends! Doing it yourself and getting teamed up with randoms... and a lot of the time they don't bother helping you when you've been injured
We'll have to team up James/Harry *.*
Posted by: HarryEzra 28th June 2018, 03:37 PM

So you do get teamed with randomers? If so I am low key sure I killed my teammate who was AFK
It was my first play and I saw someone near where I was and got confused

Posted by: HarryEzra 20th July 2018, 11:46 PM
After playing this for a few days now I am really into it.
Posted by: JSG 21st July 2018, 08:16 AM
Yeah I couldn't really get into it before either but after the last couple days I see why it's addictive.
Posted by: Cqmerqn 26th July 2018, 08:06 PM
Someone add me on PS4 and play with me

Posted by: HarryEzra 31st July 2018, 06:18 PM
You totally should!! I highly recommend it, what console do you have Harve?
Posted by: JSG 1st August 2018, 03:10 PM
If you have a Switch, XBOX or pc we can help but if you have a ps4 it's a no go lol:

Posted by: Dickston 9th August 2018, 07:20 AM
I just made my first kill Then died immediately afterwards because I decided to shoot the guy driving rather than the guy shooting me but oh well
Posted by: HarryEzra 9th August 2018, 08:53 AM
Congrats!! You'll get better with more practise
Posted by: Eleni 9th August 2018, 11:06 AM
There's nothing worse than finishing 2nd place with 5 kills whilst the winner gets 1 kill (me!)
Posted by: HarryEzra 9th August 2018, 11:27 AM
I'd find it awkward if that ever happens to me
Posted by: Viper* 9th August 2018, 10:12 PM
It's how I won my very first ever.
Posted by: 🎄Cqmerqn🎄 21st December 2018, 07:25 PM
It’s absolutely crazy how big this game has become. Surely one of the biggest ever?

Prince Harry thinks Fortnite should be banned
Posted by: Jay ☆ 19th October 2019, 06:02 PM
I'm really enjoying Chapter 2, Season 1! Is anyone else playing?
For me it's big step up from the previous chapter, particularly in terms of graphics. Most of the areas on the new map are very visually appealing; it feels slightly less cartoon-y than previously. Swimming, fishing and using boats are all fun new features!
The introduction of bots & same-skill matchmaking is very noticeable though (I've never played better than I have this week ). I'm not annoyed about it though, it's nice to feel like I've got a fighting chance & I think it's ultimately going to help me improve.
Posted by: Jay❄ 26th January 2021, 12:45 AM
Me, James, Harry and Lotti are still Fortnite mad
Moods:
- "Oh no, the shooty boys"
- Water at the colosseum
- "We're going to Salty"
- Lotti: "ARGH!!"
- Harry: "Wowwww..."
- James: *strong swear words*
Posted by: Golden Maknae 26th January 2021, 02:29 AM
Harry and James dragging me to the schweatiest places was... an experience
I need to play with Lotti I feel like she’d be good at it
