Doesn't Fortnite have crossplay with every single platform. Even mobile :O
Pretty much, just not xbone with ps4.

I don't see why people complain about the fan base, never seen them be bad in any way, then again I don't play squads or duals with randoms, or use the in game chat.

Most people think because it's popular it's a bad game. The game itself is decent, but the main reason people don't want Fortnite for Switch is the fanbase. The fanbase can destroy the reputation of the Switch fast.
No, it cannot. it physically can not, no matter how many ninja meme spouting children there are. competitive multiplayer is a thing that floats by itself and generally the non-competitive audience has nothing to do with it, the two don't even interact. Fortnite also seems to be on every system including mobiles so it will not attract many new system buyers, as those people have a bigger interest in investing in a platform that has a big number of competitive games or use they already owned (phones).

Also, right now the reputation of the switch is that it has no games, so adding a game may even help fixing it.

Because the game will be a forced install, and you'll be required to play the game for at least 2 hours before you're allowed to launch another game. To bypass this restriction, you'll need to buy at least $20 of V-Bucks.

It's the fortnite-community that sucks.

Because its a TOXIC game.
Edit: Not the game itself, but the community..oh god
I personally just view the community around it as being trashy and hating on fortnite is kinda a meme now so eh.
I absolutely abhor the fanbase
And what does this fanbase do which gives them such a bad reputation?

The fanbase consists of mostly kids, and kids do all sorts of shit that gives them a shitty reputation. Just search up #boogiedown for examples.

There is nothing wrong with it persay. People just act like it's a system seller when it probably won't be. People who want to play Fortnite already have a way to do so and are unlikely to buy a switch to do so.

So it's ok but not my thing.

The game is overrated, the community is bad, and ninty kids are gonna be so toxic lmao.
I have played a little bit of matches but its decent, the good things about this being released is
-crossplay?
-voice chat (through online app?, prefer to use discord tbh)
-bring more people to switch
-might be free to play without subscription

bad things
-toxic community
-might kill switch
-overheating maybe?
-paid dlc ofc

Screaming 10 year olds aside, will nintendo's online infrastructure be able to even handle 100 person multiplayer?
Nintendo doesn’t host servers except for their own games...so they won’t be hosting Fortnite servers epic will...

I’m not really into Fortnite but all of you talking trash about a game about how toxic the community is makes you a hypocrite by being toxic to it on a online forum...if you don’t like Fortnite just don’t play it, don’t like the community? Don’t play it simple as that...

My cousin really likes Fortnite and it does have a toxic community. I was ok with ignoring that until I was told that I shouldn't mention it now.

It's no more toxic than most other non MMORPGs like CoD but there is absolutely no reason to ignore it or not document it. It's not like we're confronting them or at all contributing to their community.

That said if you don't play it the community will have little effect on you but it could be a reason to avoid it if you don't like that environment.

Personally I don't care either way as the game isn't my cup of tea .

Some people seem to believe that hating popular things somehow makes themselves more interesting. It does not.

  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign

    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
