I bet those 900 fired Employees would've come in very handy right about now

Season 9 chapter 1 is hand down one of the best summer events we've gotten A unvault and ltm everyday for 14 days A new skin released in the shop for 14 days The whole map covered in summer themed items and beach balloons Some of the best summer rewards like the water balloon and the peely smoothie backbling And the water balloon toy got its own ltm where if you get hit 3 times you get eliminated Now we just have 3 summer items, a npc, no map changes, and terrible summer quest Its sad

Epic right now is just disappointing, I hope chapter 6 isn't like this

I feel this is another factor why we NEED longer chapters. More time allows for more time to be worked on, allowing for seasonal events to actually feel FANTASTIC

Who else misses donald mustard?

Not even a spray paint on the wall is just sad

Remember when Battle Royale was the main mode/core of Fortnite, and that was reflected by events being primarily tied to it?

I’ve never actually thought of them being in a transition phase. It would explain a lot of the things they’ve been doing. I just hope they can get back on their feet soon and find some sort of middle ground. And yes I agree fortnitemares and winterfest better not be trash or I’ll cry 😭.

we literally need seasonal events (not need need but they are amazing)

Bit off topic, but something I think Epic should do with the shops to make them a little less cluttered, is to make it so the items for a certain mode, only show up when you have that mode selected, for example, if you have the Festival mode selected, you’ll only see the jam track and instruments, if you wanna play LEGO, then only the LEGO stuff will be there. The skins will still be there, but I just think it’s silly that you have Rocket Racing, Lego, Festival AND Battle Royale all in one place.

Oh cosmic summer =< I miss it so much

They just don’t care about the community like they used to. Inconsistent updates, brain rotting and effortless maps taking over creative, and finally after all this time they considered separated the loot pool despite the clear frustration between casuals and competitive that has been a problem since the beginning.

Are we the only 2 that love this season streaming, playing with friends, making content etc??? Keep it up bro!

My head canon is that the Pirates event is the actual summer event and this is just a warm up 😅

You know a number funnier than 24

This is why I like your content. You always try and look for the positives I or other people may not see at first 😊

The amount of glazing is crazy 😂

Chapter 1 was just magic that will never fully come back. I had so much faith built up in Epic back then, they really could do no wrong. I even defended the mechs when they happened. The constant care shown to the game was unmatched. Tons of fan service. I now feel like that was just a honeymoon phase to attract and hook in a strong fan base. Not that the game is bad now, but imo, any season from 4-X blows away any season since, and that's mostly because of the constant care shown to the game. Events, steady updates, creative LTM's, live events, irl contests, etc.

And this is why chapter 2 was peak.

You can blame Disney for everything because epic doesn’t make games no more and epic is listening to corporate rather then fans

It was just kinda sad to log in a few days ago and notice like five games in that the summer event started. They didn’t even give a news tab thing about it. Hope chapter six is the comeback of good summer events because the amount of memories from chapter two season seven summer I have is insane

Is it only me how heard the rizz sound in the backround off the video

Last chance for summer but maybe hopes for Fortnitemares because it’s on the roadmap

it is really funny everyone says that the cosmic summer event was good and the only new thing about that event was some new decorations on the beach

I came for the thumbnail, stayed for the iced out trypticon

Bro durring the splash down season we didn't have no rewards for summer but what we got was a lot of cool updates and coral Castel even tho it wasn't a good poi atlest we got a map change

Everything after chapter 3 has been lackluster Donald mustard was the man just another reason why chapter 1,2,and3 will always be better than current Fortnite

I think the only good summers we have ever had was season 9 chapter and chapter 2 season 6. It was fun, the rewards were pretty good and it felt refreshing

I don't really care about Fortnitemares but I really miss when we had crackshots cabin and Winterfest because it adds to the Christmas feeling

"bUt mUh MeTaVeRsE!"

I really hope they start doing these event takeovers like they did with Metalica. I'll use fortnitemares as an example since it's our next event Have a custom loot island like the metalica event decor around the island for halloween Maybe add jack o launchers to Lego have some spooky songs for festival have some pumpkin decals for the cars, maybe add some toppers so we can have a pumpkin stalk on them too. Maybe they could even spookyfie the reload map and port some of the old season 6 versions of pleasant tilted and retail on the map I just hope they put as much effort into their actual IP as they do with collabs Also still praying they add the Grave Digger as a weapon skin It's been 7 years epic, make it happen already

Underrated channel

Imagine not having seen an early preview of this on stream yesterday.

Something the fn community doesn't realize is that epic games are like chefs and fortnite is the food Sure some updates might be bad but just wait it out and a good update will come

Just got on a 5 hour flight! So happy you posted today 🙏🙏🙏

Epic really needs to watch the videos you make to help improve the game

It seems that Fortnite's 1 year chapter model is really screwing them over.... Massive parts of the map feel forgettable, and it always feels like Epic is procrastinating and saying to themselves: "next chapter we are going to do it" and they never do...

I miss prime winterfest and summer

Someone hire this man for Epic Road mapping...

I think donald mustard leaving changed everything

They lost passion IVE felt them losing passion near the end of chapter 3

Love the new edit style!!

Honestly, all of us are stupid for thinking this summer fest would be good lol. I’d probably say 60% of me knew that it wasn’t gonna be good, I just didn’t expect how little of it was actually put out. That being said, the season is still enjoyable enough for me to where I’m not completely bothered by this (also I expected this to happen anyway).

who remembers 2019 summer update

They should have just said that the pirates of the Caribbean colab was the summer event

I remember waiting for Epic to release Fortnite before it even had a Battle Royale (they created Gears of War which was my favorite game) so I followed Fortnite closely till launch.. everyone seems divided. But the identity of Fortnite has shifted too far in my opinion. If it wasn't for Reload, I'd have struggled to get through this Season. I know there are folks who enjoy it. But they keep straying farther and farther from their original core identity. Reload is the best thing I've played in a long time.

Yesterday was my birthday!!

There’s a summer event going on right now?

I literally didn’t even notice there was a summer update when it came out until I was about to hop off

Yeah well this was your MOM'S last chance, and now we've BROKEN UP

I 100% agree with what you said about Fortnitemares and the analogy to real life events during that time of year. It gives off a different and really special vibe to Fortnite which isn't present during any other time. Same goes for Winter/Christmas, Winterfest is a magical time to play the game when executed right. Remember when we got a surprise full snow map on Christmas day back in 2018? That felt like magic and it's truly awesome when they execute those things correctly. This years Winterfest was a big downgrade, but the map still had a lot of that magic present, although it could've been better. Even Chapter 4 did it miles better without having much snow outside the snow biome. It's the little things that make these events special. How hard is it to repurpose already existing props and decorate the map? I can't imagine it being that hard to do those little decorations and have quests be themed around them. I mean, all they really had to do was add a few summer themed props around the desert lakes and have quests be themed around that instead of the most unoriginal and bland quests we've had to date. While on the topic of summer, people are kinda sad that they can't experience another summer event like 14 Days of Summer again. Fortnite just set the bar so high back then that they quite literally can't deliver that high again. But as I've said, it's the little things that make these events magical - themed props & quests, fog, etc. They need to recycle the bare minimum and I guarantee you that the events will feel fun again. I know that LTMs are long gone, but having a few of them for each seasonal event ready to recycle every year seems reasonable (like Horde Rush every year).

I like this guy he gives a lot of positive views for this game its a nice change of just sooo many people shiting on the game and the season

Fortnite losing donald mustard is the biggest L they've took

Btw just a note they haven't removed vehicle mods (not a big issue, they've removed cars) or Nitro Fists from comp yet. They say they'll get a patch out ASAP but they're on break until the 12th. When we get to see comp without the Nitro Fists there'll be only 6 days left of the Summer event. Epic probably wouldn't have made this mistake if they weren't piling stuff on their employees so hard

The fact they don’t put much effort into winterfest anymore upsets me. There must be so many kids out there who don’t get much in their life, and waking up everyday to log into Fortnite and receive a new gift must be so exciting. It’s a shame epic don’t feel the same way

I actually couldn't care about less about these stuff

When i saw the Pirates Mini-Pass i made an idea...: But since they're so obsessed with these mini-passes... why don't they make a nice summer mini-pass TOTALLY free? It would make a lot of people want to play (including me), wouldn't it? then just add other simple summer themed things like small POIs which will then be used to advertise the entire 14 day summer event. I believe that for the Collabs there is a LOT of work taken away from the development of the BR divided in turn into the other three modes (with the leaked Fall Guys thing, four): This is why I think that the MANY collaborations are one of FN's problems... A collaboration must be something exclusive and not something that is done at least 3/4 times a season (neglecting the fact that they destroy an entire season like the previous one) Now obviously I don't know how things really are, this is just my thought

Chapter 6 should not happen at the end of this year

After the end of Chapter 3 I have just been lost in the storyline and the game afterwards had no events aside from The Big Bang which made it seem like they did stop caring.

I hope when we go to chapter six we will get a good Christmas event

Klarque always manages to get my hopes up for the future of this game. And I love him for it.

They could just make an updated version of save the world and make it free. Stw already gets 15k active players and it has been pretty stable over the last couple months. I mean, if a 20$ game that hasn’t seen a major update since, I don’t even know anymore gets more players than a mode that they have been updating monthly than they could make it free and probably get 50k active players after a while and they would probably be updating stw monthly too at that point.

Love this video 🙏🏾👏🏾

08:40 IS SO REAL

3:10 DOOMFIST? This ain’t Overwatch

As someone who just started playing in CH5, I would prefer if we got a summer map update instead of the Metallica event. And I say that as a Metallica fan. Now I get it, I get it, this was the big "Find it in Fortnite" spectacular where you have one celebration across all modes. I don't really mind not having a spring event. I don't mind not having an autumn event. But if you're going to do that for winter time, I would say that it just feels off not doing it for summer.

Ever since the Fracture event and Donald Mustard leaving Epic, Fortnite really went downhill

That’s what I thought too! I also think reload was supposed to be summer event content, but due to how heated people were about this season, they released it so early. That’s why there was no promotion, no leaks, no nothing until it just came out. It wasn’t supposed to. I mean, look at the free rewards from reload. Some arcade game contrail, a pool cubes wraps, and a banana chilling in an inflatable pool. Seems very summer to me. That’s why this event seemed so lackluster, because It was split up. Along with what he said about the trailer does make me think that these were supposed to be together.

Pirates of the Caribbean update is gonna feel like the Summer Event more than this latest update

i remember 14 days of summer, that was so good

The only thing I want Epic to do is to delete or at least discontinue the Metaverse and move all resources to BR and Reload because Lego barely gets updated and most people don't care about it and the people who do don't care if it doesn't get updated because all they do is build in their world. RR is just a racing mode it doesn't need updates. For Festival they could just make a custom song maker allowing you to put any song in there and even upload custom songs publicly because Lego and RR have something similar which is creative.

Its important to me mostly the falls and winter because of the free skins and the way the map changes in br

I don't want to play this season because of all of the nitro fist and modded cars

I am not sure they want to make money... As far as their main monetization is cosmetics, I see no logic in not fixing the poor locker UI we have had for more than half a year.

I understand you, but when RELOAD and Chapter OG you show OG sound that are not getting released how you feel, EPIC is changing so much things that nobody is asking for.

They said the unvalted the Emp and Crash Pad Jr, but i'm pretty sure that both of them were already in the game before the summer update.

I never thought I see Fortnite this low and player count. They better step it up next season…

This event just feels non-existent. Also we did get the crackshot cabin as the rift island during winterfest for ch5

“Yap yap yap doom doom doom” is literally all fortnite channels are nowadays

In my opinion, the game has been on a downward trend since the beginning ch2 s4. ch2 s3 and before honestly felt really great to me, but since then, there has been so many collabs and, especially with the metaverse now, the game feels more like an ad. With epic focusing on so many things at once, the quality of everything doesn't feel as good as it was to me, so I can understand skipping a lot of what seasonal events used to be so they can spend time on everything else. I don't really feel that makes it right though because, as a huge company, they have high expectations of them set by Fortnite's player base, yet they just half-assed the event. It feels almost as if epic doesn't truly care, and yes, there have been changes based on community input and that's great, but it's typically slow and underwhelming. The split loot pools between comp and casual have been something asked ever since ranked came out with identical loot to pubs and only now they make that change and only as a "test" despite being a nearly universal sentiment as far as I'm aware. Now, I could go on about everything I think is wrong, but I think some of it comes to personal preference (and I've already ranted long enough), but my overall thoughts are that epic is trying to appeal to everyone but has ultimately made things that only really feel ok. they care more about what they can get than what they can give and I get that's pretty much just typical business, there's a difference between something like selling a typical good and upholding a constantly updated game with a player base in the millions. That's just my opinion though. If there's anything that needs clarification, ask and I'll try to clear it up. I'm not the best this stuff lol

here’s MY THOUGHTS. New content doesn’t matter when they make bad changes or half of that content is recycled, (Combat weapons, bad event, map changes only during collabs, adding OP items and not vaulting them from comp from the start) also theres more ACTUAL new weapons in wilds and even last season since a ton of weapons were just updated to be modable with bullet drop. it doesn’t feel like new content at all, it feels like they took old content, slapped on a new coat of paint and added it to the game. and honestly thats why reload doesnt feel new to me either, they grabbed the ch1 map, stripped half of it, gave it a new feature and a altered loot pool and added that. it feels like the new content is reserved simply for collabs atp

This summer challenges are too hard

I just play reload and rage it got me to re-download and as for the new maps they could stretch out making new maps and make the game more memorable.

If reload came out at the same time as the summer update everyone would call it the best summer event, just because we got it early ppl say it sucks.

After playing mostly other live service games over the last 18 months, I can absolutely say that Fortnite is one of the most well managed games of its kind, and we as a community is absolutely spoiled with how good we have it. I may not love the direction Epic is taking the game, but I can tell there’s still an awful lot of love, care and most importantly respect for the game and the community

Guys the seasonal event is just slow right now but they are bringing Jack sparrow then it will probably be better by then so they are just preparing us (I hope)

5:53 Two words: Rocket League

Chapter 5 didn’t even have crackshots cabin for Christmas or the firecracker gun for the 4th and we get these every year. Its that bad

4:25 People have a problem with this because it's a trend of epic getting lazy with the seasonal events. This is literally the first in a while we haven't gotten trailers for seasonal stuff. Ever hear of the straw that breaks the camels back? it's not just the lack of content that's making people upset- it's that paired up with the fact epic is consistently being lazy with them. 4:50 I also have a problem with this statement, partially yes you are correct but let's not act as if epic doesn't ignore the community half as much as they listen, this summer event is proof of that, and the item shop is proof of that- yes they listen... but only after they get backlash. And even then sometimes it's not permanent. them splitting the loop pool is temporary. So acting as if epic is listening to the community as if they genuinely care is crazy.

I wonder if fortnite reload will ever " take over " br and that be the staple game mode people get on fortnite to play. I wonder if we will ever see a day where theres only a few thousand players in battle royale, its hard to imagine with a game as big as fortnite. But they also said that about call of duty for years " nothing will beat call of duty " " call of duty has the most players " " cod will never die "

I wish we had a good summer event but it's summer or collab event and i think collab events are better but it's just a me thing

Great video as always

ALSO, WHY ARE THE CHALLENGES FOR THIS EVENT SO DIFFICULT THIS YEAR??

I was so desperate for ghostbusters skins when I started this year…..waited for the new movie release….nothing….then the 40th anniversary, nothing…then the blu rat release…nothing….hoping for Halloween time now, but darnit, I’m getting pretty bummed about how this game treats its fans

Times have change my brother i don't play this game anymore i got every skin i wanted every emote i wanted so i just quit lol

I think that the pirates of the caribbean event will be this year's summer event.

Fortnite should focus on what made them great not trying to become a metaverse icon

Fortnite's summer update is a million times better than Apex. Apex split their season in 2 and instead of being able to buy the battle pass with earned coins from completing the last Battle Pass and now charge $14 per battle pass, which they are 2 of per season so itll cost $28 to get the battle pass for 1 season

It’s so funny because I literally predicted how terrible the summer event would be and so for that, not surprised at all either…✌️😂
