Fortnite

Fortnite is an online video game which has become very popular for the last few years. The reason? Simple, it is an exciting, entertaining and, overall, very, very competitive game. It begins when you and other 99 players are dropped into a map. You will compete to be the last player — or team — standing. You will be able to create a world of your own rules and battle arenas.

How to play Fortnite? Essential tips

As any game, Fortnite has its own style, its way to play; once you understand this and apply the following tips you will see how the game becomes more exciting. Up next, we will leave you the tips in a logical order, so you can remind them easier.

Don’t land in a place full of players

As you know, all games start with a bus in the air from which you and 99 other players must launch themselves to the ground. This is the first thing you should do when you launch yourself: Landing in a place as far away as possible from most players.

To avoid this, you should not jump off the bus as soon as the game allows you. As you may know, many players do that. Just don’t do it. For instance, areas such as Dusty Depot and Tilted Towers are generally full of players at the beginning. It is true that there is a good booty there, but it is also true that if there are many players behind it your chances of survival are reduced.

Jump off when the bus is at least halfway through the trip. When you jump you must be aware of the other players so as not to fall near them. However, neither should you go to an empty place because you won’t find any weapons or resources. So you must seek a balance between falling along with very few players ― or away from them ―, and in a relatively prosperous place.

Collect materials as you go

This is also important. To build in Fortnite you must collect materials, such as wood, brick, and metal. It’s a big mistake to spend more than 10 minutes collecting resources when you start the game because another armed player can come along, kill you, and take everything. Don’t do it.

We know collecting materials is very necessary, but the idea is that during the first minutes you can obtain weapons, objects, and some materials. Later, when you are advanced on the island, you should collect more materials, but never for long in the same area.

Remember: There will always be trees, rocks and more to get materials, don’t just stay in one place.

Build fast!

Construction is inevitable in this game. Building is important because it allows you to have a moderately safe place where you can drink potions, heal yourself, revive companions, and even defend yourself: using the structure as a battlefield that only you know.

It is important that you learn to build fast, and you will only achieve this with practice. The combination of a wall and a ramp is useful to cover you quickly. Many times, matches are won by the player who builds the fastest and best. Just practice, don’t forget.

You must be selective in your choice of weapons

A common mistake is to take all the weapons you find on the way to fill the slots of the backpack. As you know, the weapons are different according to their color: White (common), green (rare), blue (rare), purple (epic) and orange (legendary).

Ideally, you should only have the best weapons in your backpack. For instance, if you have a green gun and a blue one, you must drop the green one and keep the blue one. Also, a person usually only uses two or three preferred weapons, so don’t waste space occupying the other slots on more weapons: Just go for the two or three you use the most and save the other slots for shields and first aid kits.

Be aware of the storm

As you know, the storm is all the space on the map that is outside the circle that delimits all the territory in which you must remain playing. The circle gets smaller as time goes by. If you are outside that circle you will be in the storm, and your health will go down until you die.

In the storm, the shields are useless (Even if you have 100% of them) and your health will just go down and down until you die.

You should pay attention to the map and also to the storm’s countdown, this way you will know where to go from the safe zone and how much time you have left to get there.

You must be silent!

Something really exciting about this game is that you can hear the steps and movements of other players who are close to you, but in the same way, players will be able to hear yours.

It is important that you have your ears open. You must learn to move quietly when you are inside a building or near a construction, and especially if you think there might be another player there. If he doesn’t hear you coming, you could attack him by surprise, or you could also run away if you have no weapons to face him.

That would be all the advice. With some practice, you will be able to master them and improve a lot in your games.
