The only reason I bought Fortnite is for the Battle Royale mode, I'm sure I won't be the only one. It could wind up being more popular than the PVE as options are limited on PS4.

Is this free on the PS4 or something? I checked the store page out earlier and there's no option to buy it, just says I can download it.

You can download it for free, but then have to pay $29.99 to purchase the early access pack from the PS Store.

They've announced that on the 26th the Battle Royale mode will be free to everyone.

They also announced this the day after a week long sale ended that was in honor of them adding the battle royale mode.

I bought the game just to play BR because of the sale.

I've seen people make pretty successful sniper towers out of stone and steel, each level is a V of stairs facing out, build like 4 stories so it takes a ton of ammo to take down.

But for the most part I've began to carry a lot more wood just so I can build stairs and get on top of otherwise inaccessible mountains when the circle gets smaller.


As far as locations I'm having pretty good luck with starting in the Mire, I can usually get 3-4 chests there with little competition, plus you can leave that area with 300-500 wood easy. I usually glide straight to the house with 2 chests and 2 guns and then work my way out.

Anybody have any other sweet spots? Loot lake is trash, though from time to time I'll parachute on top of the house in the middle of the lake just to break through the attic and get the chest, then I'll just wait to get the jump on the person that survives the brawl downstairs.

I've died, a lot. This was worth it.

:perfect:

That's such a good kill - traps really don't get used as often as they should be. They need to make them more common.


I feel so hosed if I don't pick up a sniper in the first couple of minutes, but that new scoped AR does help out a lot if you're able to find one instead.

Oh and if anybody is looking to group up on PS4, add me: myswagyolo

This game gets so good <15 players when everybody scrambles to build their tower. I got lucky and was able to build right in the middle of the next two circles.

I like the opening scavenging phase, it ratchets up the tension imo

I'm really enjoying this game but I suspect it's because I never had a PUBG crew and this is scratching that itch. I'm still not sure when you should be building a base though since its impossible to know where he circle will end up?

At some point once it gets to <20 players the circle is small enough where you can start building in the center of it and wind up inside of the next one.

Most of the time though you just wind up gambling that your spot will be where the circle goes to.

500 stone or metal, shotgun, an AR with a lot of ammo + medkits

Having a scoped AR or sniper makes it much easier though.

My end game is all about building towers.

I just realized how good the silenced pistol is in BR. Kills so much faster than the shotgun if you can get the jump on them, love using it mid range too if they don't see me.
