Horrible updates cripple Fortnite

Fortnite’s winter update is not what fans want

An in game look at Fortnite’s new winter landscape

Fortnite fans have been dying to see what amazing update developer Epic Games is planning for the game. On Jan. 19 the event showed the Ice King adding a blanket of snow over the entire map as well as visual crippling fog.

Along with the fog it brought the return of the hated Fortnite zombies which ruin games for most players.

“The new update is completely horrible, so bad that I’ve uninstalled the game,” freshman Avi Fruman said.

The fog impairs vision so horribly that it’s almost impossible to see more than 20 meters ahead. Mid fight zombies will charge you doing nothing but bother you when trying to take care of the player you were originally fighting

“I have no idea why Fortnite keeps adding these awful updates,” sophomore Ethan Dray said.

Many top tier players and streamers have gone so far as to stop playing the game’s Battle Royale mode. These players include Faze Cizzors and CourageJD, some of Fortnite’s highest rated streamers.

“I started playing other games like Sea of Thieves in place of Fortnite,” 8th grader Dean Farber said.

Even the youngest and most casual of players like Farber don’t like any of these new editions to the once beloved Fortnite.
