I was saving the 300 star challenge for today, well fuck it I guess.
they patched that one the day it came out
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjc0A-kipAU got a video of the break as it happened
What a crazy event. The fact that it personally involved ~100 players in a simultaneous real time cutscene is absolutely nuts. I was afraid I'd be disappointed but I was anything but.
It has been one of the most beautiful moments I have seen in a mp videogame. The sudden fade to white, the butterfly and the cutscene were pretty.
How do you know when those things are happening? There's no countdown or anything, you just have to be at the right place at the right time by accident?
they announced the time and day it was gonna happen, same as with the rocket launch on S4 but weirdly enough not with S5's lake event
where? I don't remember seeing an announcement in-game or in my emails either.

ah. they retweet cosplays and shit, I'd rather not have it clutter my Twitter feed. It's strange that they don't advertise those things more.
it was also in the news section in-game, like 3 hours before it was just one big ol square talking about the cube event
Yeah it's been on the news section in-game for a few days now
It was on twitter, on the main reddit and in the in game news. Either way it was comfy as fuck, felt like some kind of ascension. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/236911/a6f5f01f-2419-410d-b8bc-b7a7e63ef4d0/Screenshot (906).png
I was on a car trip so sadly i couldnt be ingame to see it I was watching a stream and when there were 36 seconds left my mobile data died, we got in a traffic jam and to top it all off my phone loses the signal for a few minutes Had to wait half an hour till i could actually see the event
Well, there were some really fucking obtuse challenges this season, but I'll be damned I managed to blitz them this week after struggling for awhile/not being able to play enough to do them, but thank you Disco Domination for me being able to get this shit done. https://files.catbox.moe/dp71py.png Wonder what bullshit Week 7 will bring >.>
nothing will top the 7 chests on risky reels on season 4
I actually genuinely believe the game rolls against items that are in your challenges. I haven't seen a port-a-fort in literally ages
Those fucking Visitors taking chests lmao
i was a more benevolent visitor and just enjoyed the mayhem with some popcorn
I felt the Retail chests were more of a nightmare for me then again, I might've just used up all my luck at managing to get at least one chest for every match for the week of Risky
This emote is gold https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/236911/51d1973c-60c7-4814-b7cc-1e94b21cb71b/Screenshot (920).png
I saw a guy in the lobby doing the battle call emote, so I ran up to him and used the phone emote. He stopped for a moment before using facepalm. It was too perfect.
I was still amazed how long they kept the "search 7 chests" challenges. It basically made a certain location on the map unusable for a few days (in the case of Risky, weeks) because a huge fraction of the game would drop there. Expecting the entire game population to try to complete a task like that when some locations were lucky to have more than a few chests spawn at a time was absurd.
The challenge itself was not the problem. The problem was everyone wanted the Visitor.Thankfully they decided to stop that challenge.
Team Terror is essentially a harder remixed version of 50v50 with a different faster storm pattern and the cube zombies mixed in. Cube pylons are good for farming for gear as you move inward but it also makes firefights more chaotic because you're having to dodge the zombies on top of enemy fire.
holy hell, they completely reworked save the world.
Yeah, and more is still yet to come. You can read the article they made 3 days ago about it here: Epic Games' Fortnite
It's gonna take some getting used to the new menus and such, but I'm glad they're adding more voicework for the other heroes. I was surprised when my Dusk started speaking in a voice other then the default outlander female one, like in a good way. Calamity's fits her perfectly. Haven't tried with the other ones yet.
Did they just change week 10 to only have 15 battle stars or was it always like this?
its definitively much better now. previously the UI was outdated as hell and much of theinfo was frankly obscured. giving how much STW focuses on stat building i had no idea how to raise the base's power until way later into the game and only after i accidentaly noticed it did by means of boosting squad members.
