doesn't matter to me
i'm not in the minecraft/fortnite demographic

At least it's a game.

Also, better this than battleground. What a pretentious piece of uninspired shit that was.

Fad meme game, it'll definitely be around for a while since it's a large scale fad but reminder that normalfags only play what is "in" at the moment. This is why you'll see dudebro normals say shit like "bro why are u playing old game when new game is out!!".

I like it because it means PUBG is failing.

pretty odd, I wonder what the reasons for this is? Is it just simply battle royal but F2P?

I definitely think so as well, but the scary part is it's not a game that takes itself to seriously because of the games theme.

Whats your winrates anons?

Honestly the game isn't bad

At least someone is playing games, unlike us.

>what do you think about that, Sup Forums?
It means another mod is responsible for creating something the masses want to play.
Just like MOBA.
And that leaves the console peasants fuming

I've no idea what it's about all I know is it seems to have got super popular over night and the normalfags are eating this shit up so it will likely be near dead within the next year like every other fad game

28%
Not too bad since Ninja is around 35%
Hoping one day I can hit near 35% and start streaming

yea but that's entirely up to the way they balance things, literally the company EPIC shut down certain gains for more developers to work on Fartnite BR alone. Paragon died, they know this is there only chance and they will try there best not to fuck it up. They have all the proper utility to create even more shit.

How is PUBG pretentious?

I think the F2P aspect, crafting, hitscan and cartoon artstyle attract a lot of children. Its easier for them to play when its bright and colorful and you dont have to think about bulletdrop ect. I have a friend who works at a high school and he says all the kids love fortnite and imitate the taunts/emotes.

>imitate the taunts/emotes.
Sounds like problematic /toxic behaviour

definition of casual gaming its disgusting. shame that pubg is so clunky and uncontrollable, not to mention performance

Good for them. Ill keep my single player games tho

I'm a contrarian reactionary, it's shit.

? are you fucking ?
niggercunt fuck you, first off.

secondly, PUBG is a chink who saw battle royale in H1Z1 or Arma and decided "hey i got an original idea, i will make a battle royale game" then when other people literally copied his idea, he decided he was the gatekeeper of the "battle royale" genre. he is chink scum who thinks too highly of himself - pretentious

he literally put his online name in the title of the game as if he is almighty and important

Not him, but PUBG tried to do "streamers", "competitive", and also that lawsuit. Imo PUBG looks awful, but that's because I fell for the DayZ meme

>and Gangnam style
Was a fucking music video on youtube. Why are you comparing a video game to a music video?

Good for epic.

Atleast there's more to fortnite than just deathmatch, tho it's made up of memes

Why did this game suddenly become so popular? Is it just because it's f2p and its main competition is p2p? Is it because Drake played it once on stream?

he's a British sjw lol

That's quite a hostile reaction, but thanks for the answer anyway.

>high school kids imitating the taunts/emotes
the fuck kind of autist school is this? if you said middle/elementary school I'd consider it more acceptable but I would think high school students would be a little...less childish?

Kill yourself niggertard.

>work your ass 6 years making an original game
>it flops and you have to resort to copy an early access game
Well at least they made a shitton of money.

To me it's just like any shitty FTP shooter game that somehow got more popular than the rest.It has lootboxes, skins, purchase tiers... Picks all its player base across every platform ,tosses it all together and makes a mess of a unbalanced 100 player battle. Anyone with more than 2 braincells can see how retarded this game is.

>I'm a contrarian reactionary, it's shit.


>dis nigga didnt buy his battle pass this season

#yolo

your missing out on all kinds of sweet gear and loot my man

He works with mostly 9th graders which are too young to really know any better.

You know that the guy who made the arma battle royale mod is the guy who made pubg? (sold the idea and worked on it )

>It has lootboxes
no it doesnt. i think the single player might but not battle royale.

>Picks all its player base across every platform
no it doesnt

nice b8 m8

if you really are that stupid, the creator of pubg made arma battle royale, then h1z1hired him, then he made his own. Actually the father of this genre which he stole off a jap movie

oh ok 9th grade is pretty much still middle school imo, kids don't start showing signs of maturing till 10th/11th grade from what I've seen.

i'd rather have it steal all the playerbase from overwatch

This actually made me less likely to play the game, it is so stupid

They are called pinatas.

You can make squads with friends between mobile , PC and console

My younger brother who is a senior in high school told me a story about a kid immitated some emote in class while the teacher was speaking. He stood stright up out og his chair and kicked left and right while making an L on his forehead. This is our future

If it's making that shit chinese casino mod of a mod PUBG sweat, then i'd support this too.

>Actually the father of this genre
Then why was I playing battle royale game modes in warcraft 3 circa 2004?

why was i playing battle royale mods in CS around the same time?

he didn't father shit, he just decided to make a game from an already established game mechanic. then the cunt went ahead and put his own gamer tag in the title of the fucking game lmao

>Stole off a jap movie
Man you're not smart

>You can make squads with friends between mobile , PC and console
no fuckhead.

uwotm8
father of mainstream br then, happy?

they need to add more modes, the br mode is boring as hell

I think that the fortnite dev can thanks twitch. Pretty sure this game would not be as big as it is without it.

I just did it today...
The only thing you cant connect is ps4 and xbox i think.

don't see the appeal but don't care, it's better that people play this than buy ubisoft or EA $60 rehash garbage games

I think it too advantage of the mistakes of PUBG and resulted in success. I've never played but my current computer is a thinkpad.

>the concept of battle royale didn't exist before the japs made a movie about it
You're stupid

I said he stole it off the movie for his games, nothing more

>stole a concept from someone who didn't even originate it
You keep proving my point.

>They are called pinatas.
yeah, there only in save the world mode which is the mode no one plays. battle royale is the main attraction retard

>You can make squads with friends between mobile , PC and console


yeah but random matchmaking doesnt squad you up with console/mobile. plus its a fun party game not some serious 2 deep 4 u shit that was le esports following.

stay mad, salty ur mom wont buy you a battle pass? hahaha..

He put his online alias in the title of the fucking game

This, it will be popular a MAXIMUM of 2 months until normies latch on to the next retarded hype garbage meme.

alsoalso the pinatas are cosmetic shit only. f2p games gotta make money somehow faggot


i bet you buy lootboxes in overwatch and pubg which you purchased the game of yet has lootboxes. retard.

>Substitute teach
>Fortnite Mobile comes out
>Have to send multiple students to the office within an hour of its launch because they won't stop playing it in class
Fuck this stupid game.

how many wins do you guys have?

Just waiting until the next big game. Minecraft is cool and it deserves its popularity because of how impressive it turned out to be at the end. It has mods, variety of multiplayer servers, and it's a big sandbox game. I never expected some Battle Royale getting this much fame though. It's fun sure, but it's just another Battle Royale game.

Looks fun. Haven't played it since it's not really the kind of shooter I usually like to play, but it's pretty tempting. It makes for much more interesting background material to watch than PUBG though, that's for sure.

why am I still replying to this? not once did I say the movie originated it, here's a (you).

That anybody who gave GotY to PUBG should feel even more ashamed.

I don't think it will be peak Pokemon Go, but Pokemon Go had no chance to sustain that while Fortnite will keep going for atleast another year strong.

7, haven't played in a while though

It'll be on its way out in 2 months. No king lives forever.

You can't fucking steal something from someone who doesn't own it you fucking brainlet. God damn you really are fucking dumb.

31 in like 5 hours of playtime. Blitz is the only reason I am playing though, solos is fucking awful otherwise. Being starved for materials is not fun

I'm worried but also interested. Because the nu-generation is pretty autistic, being raised on the internet, which is bad, but could also be good since autismo and /r9k/-tier problems could potentially be put into light and addressed in the future so more people feel happy. But who knows, maybe they'll make things even worse.

congratulations, you've deprived them of their futures as professional gamers with your oppressive (((teaching)))

>>First game dev to actually try to license a genre


thats not true though. its been attempted multiple times.

You fucking spastic. He was somewhat known in the modding community by his gamertag so when he made new mods it was "Playerunknowns..." So people knew who made it.

It's just brand recognition and it worked because every body knows Playerunknown made pubg.

>arguing on the internet
wow user you're right, I must be dumb! my opinion is different from yours! I'm so stupid xD!

he openly stated he got the idea of the arma mod from the movie

Attached: 1519249102113.jpg (679x516, 59K)

I liked the PvE. Yet to try the battle royale mode, but it looks fun with friends.

...

Gaming fads come and go.

if league of legends dies because of it, I'm okay with it.

Wat. They're completely different and unrelated games.

It's a mix of it being F2P, Battle Royale while still running well on low end computers and console/pc/mobile crossplay

The building and meme cosmetics help a bit too I'm sure

normies can only handle one or two video games. why do you think annual franchises exist.

If anything, it just means that people tend to stick with what they know, not that they're suddenly gonna stop playing something they already play a lot and are familiar with.

Don't think it will every achieve Minecraft status. Minecraft had like 3-4 years of unbridled attention. This game will be dead in a year.

Whatever
It's not stopping games that I enjoy from getting made yet

>Dev's online username IS IN THE FUCKING TITLE OF THE GAME

is that really a big deal or any different to when a dev uses his real name on the title. like garry's mod for example


would it have been better for it to be steve smith's battleground

They're the same fucking game.
