Fortnite's MOST USELESS Features..
TLDRThe video titled 'Fortnite's MOST USELESS Features..' delves into the less practical aspects of the popular game Fortnite. It humorously critiques features such as the Midas bundle's weapon wrap, the ability to tame frogs, and the train with loot that's not worth the effort to obtain. The script also mentions the initially well-received but ultimately underwhelming feature of tipping the bus driver, the modded shotguns with scopes that are more of a hindrance than a help, and the overpriced emoticons that players rarely use. The video discusses the disappointments of the Primal season, the impracticality of the prop aier, the underwhelming jump boots, and the weather system that was removed despite its popularity. It also touches on the tease of a lightsaber pickaxe and the frustration with helipads that serve no purpose in the game's current state. The summary concludes with the Big Chill, a zero-damage exotic item that merely causes players to slide, and the confusingly disabled vehicles that add an unnecessary layer of complexity to gameplay.
Takeaways
- 🤑 The Midas bundle's weapon wrap is considered useless because the skin turns everything gold, which doesn't provide a tactical advantage.
- 🐸 Taming frogs in Fortnite is deemed pointless as players are meant to eliminate them for resources, not have them as teammates.
- 🚌 Thanking the bus driver was initially well-received, but the addition of tipping with a large amount of gold for a sound effect was seen as unnecessary and excessive.
- 🎮 The modded shotguns with scopes are not useful, as they force players to go to a bunker to remove them, which can be inconvenient and risky.
- 🚂 The train feature was anticipated to be exciting, but it turned out to be underwhelming with poor loot and a time-consuming hackable chest.
- ⚡ Zeus's lightning bolts were initially overpowered but later nerfed to the point of being ineffective and not worth picking up.
- 💸 Emoticons are rarely used and often thrown into the battle pass, with players owning many but using very few.
- 👽 The victory crown was more of a liability than an asset, acting as a beacon for enemies rather than providing a strategic advantage.
- 🛋️ Upgrade benches and solid gold were added as items that players would rarely use, taking up valuable inventory space.
- 🐝 Wasps added to the game in Chapter 4 were underwhelming and did not provide the expected strategic depth when used against enemies.
- 🚗 The reboot vans in solos are seen as irrelevant and a reminder of the lack of teammates, while the deboot van was just a decoration with no gameplay impact.
Q & A
What is the Midas bundle in Fortnite known for?
-The Midas bundle in Fortnite is known for its skin that turns everything gold.
Why would the ability to tame frogs in Fortnite be considered useless?
-Taming frogs is considered useless because players are meant to eliminate these creatures for meat, making it illogical to want them on one's team.
What was the community's reaction to the ability to tip the bus driver in Fortnite?
-While initially a cool idea, the community found the ability to tip the bus driver with 4,000 gold for a sound effect to be absurd and not worth the cost.
Why did the modded shotguns with scopes in Fortnite not make a lot of sense?
-The modded shotguns with scopes didn't make sense because players were used to firing from the hip without sights, and the scopes were not particularly useful for shotguns.
What was the issue with the train feature in Fortnite?
-The train feature was considered useless because the loot inside was of low quality, the best items were locked behind a time-consuming hackable chest, and players couldn't stop the train.
How did the Zeus's lightning bolts feature change over time in Fortnite?
-Initially, Zeus's lightning bolts were overpowered, but they were eventually nerfed to the point where they could barely eliminate players and picking them up often resulted in a return to the lobby.
Why are emoticons in Fortnite considered almost never sold on their own?
-Emoticons are rarely sold individually because players don't use them frequently, and Epic Games knows that players are unlikely to purchase them without additional incentives.
What was the problem with the upgrade benches in Fortnite?
-The upgrade benches were considered useless because they took up an inventory slot and players rarely had a use for them, preferring instead to upgrade items at specific locations.
Why did the wasps added to Fortnite in Chapter 4 not have the intended impact?
-The wasps didn't have much impact because they didn't deal significant damage and their ability to attack players was not as powerful as expected.
What was the issue with the dragon's breath shotgun in Fortnite?
-The dragon's breath shotgun was only effective at close range and could inadvertently set a player's own fort on fire, making it less useful than anticipated.
How did the prop hider feature in Fortnite fail to meet expectations?
-The prop hider feature failed to meet expectations because it was difficult to use in a fast-paced match, as players had to choose from a list of obvious objects and couldn't disguise themselves quickly enough.
