Welcome back gamers to Top 10 Gaming, I'm your host Johnny Rogers.
If you happen to be new here we post daily content on all things gaming related so if
you're a true gamer then you'll tap that subscribe button to stay at the pinnacle of gaming knowledge.
Plus if Epic Games asked you to add one thing to Fortnite, what would you do?
Leave us your answers down below and make sure you stay all the way until the end of
this video where we reveal what we really want to see.
Now lets jump into today's list of the Top 10 Things Fortnite Should Include.
#10 Custom Loadout A lot of PC gamers on Fortnite have preferred
keys on their keyboard that they set-up ahead of time to function for their weapons.
What Fortnite should include across all platforms is more customization when it comes down to
a specific weapon choice.
As I'm sure you know from playing, when you pick up weapons and items they load from left
to right and to move them around mid-battle can be frustrating.
It also absorbs a lot of time that could be used actually enjoying the game.
A simple remedy for this would be to let players pre-select where specific weapons fall, so
that if you have something in the first slot, but you pick up a more preferred weapon things
would automatically shift.
#9 Click to Sprint The automatic sprint just feels like pure
laziness on the part of Epic Games.
In every other shooter game on the market they require you to click a button in order
to activate a sprint.
However in Fortnite moving in any direction means you're leading with a light jog.
If they were able to adjust this under the control settings to become an optional feature
of clicking to sprint it would certainly alter gameplay for the better.
Nothing is worse than attempting to take a more stealth approach to an enemy or attempt
to move with precision only to be met with a fall to your death or being caught mid-attack.
Perhaps that's just the noob in me wanting things to be easier, but hey why else would
so many other successful gaming franchises have it this way if it didn't work for them.
#8 Toggle Controls Another seemingly small addition that has
largely been missing from Fortnite is the prone position.
Now from what we've read about this issue many fans do want a prone feature to be added,
but apparently it goes against the fast-paced nature that Epic wants to maintain.
If that's the case though, then why do games still take an extremely long time.
My guess is that adding in a prone position wouldn't slow down gameplay in the slightest.
Not everyone will use this, but having it at the very least as an option would be nice.
Secondly to add to this point is the currently flawed click to crouch.
This again either needs to be done away with or at the very least give players the option
to turn it off.
What I mean by this is the click to crouch and then release of the click to stand back
up should be a staple in this game as it adds value in so many others.
Nothing is more frustrating then having to click something more than once to return back
to your original position.
If there was a simple release click option in the control toggles this could add to the
fast-paced style they claim to be seeking.
#7 Pre-Edits
A pre-edit is when say you're attempting to place a wall, but its already edited.
It results in a huge annoyance for when you're trying to lay down some structures and accidentally
inserting the last thing that you just used as well.
It should be an option to toggle this off, so that we can start with a blank slate.
Reportedly this is actually something that Epic Games is looking into, but whether or
not they will implement it, is still unknown.
Another cool thing under this point would be the option for pre-selected structures.
Yeah it takes away from the building on the go aspect, but how cool would it be if you
could immediately throw down a fort to hide in without having to be a warrior and an architect
at the same time.
#6 Better Ping Your ping is the reaction time of your connection
and can also mean how fast youll receive a reply after sending out a request.
Simple requests such as firing a weapon in fortnite can be affected by your level of
ping and result in some anger inducing lag.
What happens is your ping registers the input for action that you send to the Fortnite server
which then responds back to the screen.
Due to the lack of Fortnite servers, many players experience lagging issues with their
games.
While this is normal for games of this size, it can become extremely frustrating when it
comes down to tournament play.
If someone has a zero ping, they're way more likely to take down an opponent who is playing
with a much higher ping.
The solution would be for Epic Games to just create more servers, but that would cost a
great sum of money and I'm sure they're going to avoid doing that.
#5 Sensitivity Settings This would allow for more advanced players
to speed up their gameplay especially when it comes down to things like building for
example.
Currently the only way is to just move your mouse faster, but with a custom sensitivity
for things other than targeting and mouse scope the game would take a radical shift.
Having a higher editing sensitivity specifically would help clear up any and all mistakes you're
making while building.
Which would just overall create a higher level of gaming in Fortnite.
Plus again allowing this for Fortnite tournaments at the very least would truly be a test of
skill versus just not having the right mouse or controller to get the job done faster.
#4 Weapon Customization In most first person or even over the shoulder
shooter games, your weaponry is entirely customizable.
Now while fortnite does allow players to customize the skin for their gun, it doesnt reach further
than that.
Things such as customizable cross hairs like we see in Call of Duty or Counter Strike often
come in handy for players who have a unique play style.
Not everyone will enjoy the default class or crosshairs that come along with a given
weapon.
Adding in customizations for this would only benefit Fortnite as well.
They can sell certain colors and shapes as part of packages, or make them unlockables
for players to collect as they play.
This addition as well as the last point would just improve overall gameplay.
#3 Specialists Yes it would be a direct copy from what Call
of Duty Black Ops 4 did, but we don't care.
How cool would it be to have a specialist type of skin to choose from.
Imagine depending on the type of specialist you choose, a select number of weapons and
other advantages become yours and only yours.
Obviously this would need to be counteracted with each having its own set of weaknesses,
like a really advanced form of rock paper scissors, but regardless we love this idea.
Even if specialists were separated from the main Battle Royale into a mini-game itself,
it would add another layer of strategy to every game making things much more exciting.
#2 Killstreaks We know what you're going to say,- if you
want specialists and killstreaks then go play COD - but seriously just hear us out.
Fortnite needs to start including some sort of reward for players that get into the action
to rack up kills.
Right now there is little to no reward for this and more often than not a player who
has been camping the entire game waits for the top 2 players to battle it out only to
swoop in and take the victory royale.
This is the greatest injustice that Epic Games has ever done to its top skilled players.
Sure enough of them have the skill to still take the win, but adding in killstreaks would
assist them in the goal of more fast-paced games.
Something a kin to air strikes, or advanced UAV’s or even custom drop boxes would all
help those more skilled justify leaving their cozy fort they just built to engage in a fight.
#1 Bring Back Blitz You want faster gameplay Epic, then bring
back Blitz!
We get it youre the king of Battle Royale and you want to stay true to your roots, but
adding in more gameplay modes wouldn't cause player drop offs.
Many people actually play Fortnite on their phone, but the regular Battle Royale takes
so much time and effort that Epic is actually losing players by not having a mode like Blitz
available.
Blitz was a limited time event that made an incredible first impression amongst the mobile
gaming community.
It was fast, aggressive and should have remained on the Fortnite mobile app.
Polygon described Blitz as the traditional four-person squad mode if it were stuck on
fast-forward.
Each match begins with a storm circle already formed and as soon as you drop the circle
shrinks.
At the most a match would last 15 minutes which is perfect for players that want to
get in a game of Fortnite, but don't want to dedicate too much time to it.
Allowing for such a mode to become a permanent fixture would only benefit Epic Games in the
long run.
And that has been the Top 10 Things Fortnite Should Include.
