    Deadass I would buy the Fortnite x Balenciaga sweater just cause I can and like would I have issues? No. Why? I can afford it! Could you imagine?

  • _untitled27 _untitled27 (@_untitled27) reported

    @Under_Ach1ever if you really want good for halo it shouldn’t matter what fortnite or cod or apex costs. what should matter is providing 343industries with feedback and tell them what to fix before the game officially launches so it doesn’t hurt them long term.

  • Hawkzy313 Hawkzy (@Hawkzy313) reported

    @pasta_wheat @GameSpot Cause the fans knows that every single game has buggy launch and the devs just needs a few weeks to update and fix the critical bugs then the game is way better than any other mass war game out there. BF is for grown ups, cod is for teens and cheaters, fortnite is for kids.

    Has anyone gotten into a car crash trying to get home for a fortnite tournament

  • bassewok81 Star Wars Man (@bassewok81) reported

    @Tyler_Hall__ @FaZeClan I agree with this. But Fortnite took what inroads MW2 did and blew it way out of the water. Building is the most unique aspect of what made Fortnite better and it also had broken updates and crazy POI’s. There is no other drop in any other game that compares to Tilted. None.

  • clvanderbeek C. Lowell (@clvanderbeek) reported

    @esports_mn I think the issue is more historical going from a full $60 title to a F2P model, consumers just have expectations. I've been happier buying specific things vs loot boxes. Many of the comments appear focused on "to get everything". People don't get everything in Fortnite.

  • StepNya StepNut (@StepNya) reported

    I see so many people taking about how the Samus/Metroid fortnite collab was cancelled when it literally isn’t, it’s just having some licensing issues I believe

  • PrxmiseFN1 Prxmise (@PrxmiseFN1) reported

    @spiritzszn test a different game and see if Fortnite is the problem

  • xDemaI Demal (@xDemaI) reported
