Shame it hit late as I want to gush all about the new update and have a hectic schedule tomorrow and then will be playing the darn thing!
Looks so good, crammed full of stuff.

Yay, we're back. Awesome update tomorrow. I am hyped for PVE stuff and PVP, but mostly for the tree fix!
New thread hype!
Can't wait for this update to hit tomorrow. I've been dying for some cosmetics and I'll gladly give Epic some money for them after playing about 30 hours of this so far. Love that you know what you're buying (no loot boxes) too!

A little question. Has someone opened the PVE OT yet? If not, should we maybe integrate that into this one? What do you guys think?
I will probably buy the PVE version tomorrow because the new PVP skins will cost 20$ each (2000 V-Bucks) and while the PVE version is around 25$ at the moment and you can relatively easy grind the 2000 V-Bucks in that, it's a way better deal as simply buying the skins. Just think about it.
That's what someone told me on Reddit:

I haven't yet but I think my group and I are possibly going to jump in. We've been loving Battle Royale and hearing good things about PvE. Coupled with the $24 PS+ sale and it seems like a good time to jump in!

Yes, I haven't even seen much of the PVE part or read much about it until tonight and the heavenly focused part of building in it sounds amazing. I can't wait to test it.
This was me after my Solo Victory Royale too. Stayed away for about 24 Hours. I'm addicted again but haven't gotten another Solo win. Have pulled a Duo vidtory since though and that one was the sweetest win I've had! (4 total)
Dozens of seconds, no wins for moi. Final second choke pattern, I guess. I will just have to gun for being the best almost-winner of all time.
Glad to be here!

A few friends and I really enjoy the team survival mode, but I've actually only played one game of solo. I got 2nd. Too intimidated to jump back in.
Hope to see some updates/maybe play w/ some folks here in the future!

Ugh, is the game so laggy outside of Xbox Live? Just watched someone "win" while their gun was behind their back - no shot, no nothing. Lag.
I picked this up over the weekend ironically when trying to figure wtf happened elsewhere...I really like it haven't tried PUBG since I have an old MacBook incapable for running it but this is a fun game and the updates seem interesting.
God damn mother fucking bushes are pissing me off.
I can't believe they aren't even addressing that in their new patch.

Fucking bullshit at the 30fps cap for the pro.
Does anyone have stats on what it runs currently on the pro? Was it locked 60 all the time? I never felt any slowdown.

Wow, quite the update. Looking forward to jumping in tomorrow night.
I got killed in one match and decided to just spectate the rest of the match. At one point the dude I was spectating walked by a guy who was sitting in a bush and was SO OBVIOUS and I was just uselessly yelling at my TV at how this guy missed the big dude in red clothes sitting really obviously in the bush. He did of course get killed just a few moments later.
third place in duos with a friend.
We got stopped by the industrial factory on a hill, where other teams were fighting through. Seeing as we had hella shield potions to spare we tredged through the storm circle to stow away in little pockets obscured by it.
Aiming is so finicky on Xbox One. Doesn't feel quick at all when targeting.

Those patch notes look great. Been wondering when character customization was making it in. Well, great except for the 30fps lock on PS4. Gonna miss the higher framerates a lot.
That update is going to be nice but I really am sour on the cosmetics all being paid
Thinking they'll allow currency to be earned after pve goes free
Good to see you folks again

It's a bit disappointing that there's no way to earn currency in BR right now but I've overall been really pleased with the frequency and quality of updates. They really seem to be listening to the community, so hopefully this transition into monetization is no different!
Got a duo win in tonight. I have high hopes for this tree fix stuff cause at this point I honestly don't even remember how the game used to run lol
I really feel like Fortnite could be something special 6 months or so from now! Also hoping they allow currency to be earned cause ya boy is broke and he still wants to customise lmao
The reddit community is very annoyingly trying to say epic deserves money as if there isnt an alternative
Im willing to spend money on the game. But Ive seen the value. Id much rather have loot boxes because I dont want to pay $50 for a few skins
Not sure if this info is widely known but the screenshots on pricing from the patch notes show old pricing on vbucks. I think it was 1200 for 1 skin and 1400 for the other. So a bit cheaper than initially revealed.
Thats still $14 for a premium skin which is fine
But lower skins are like $5-$8 and dont other free to play games have content to get free?
For the season they intend to only gove out a glider and banner skin
I imagine they'll throw more free stiff eventually but yeah. Not hurting for freebies but the pricing will get astronomical

Kinda hyped for their Halloween event. I'll dip my toes into some Island Murder Party shenanigans.
Me too. It's starting today right? I heard this will also be free4all. Does anyone know if this is true?

Downloading right now. :)
Bought and played the PVE version before the server went down, just played the first mission but my god is this fun. :)

Someone mind screenshotting the new stats screen? Or more?
Got 9 hours until I can hop in and check everything out.

Oh man the new storm looks incredible at the start with the purple clouds. Nice small UI changes too.
Watching at the moment: https://go.twitch.tv/dakotaz
edit: when you get caught out in it as well, so cool

Oh man.... first HUGE disappointment, you still can't choose the characters you want to play with, you still have "your" character that you choose, instead you have an outfit option under customizing but when you don't own a skin, you can't choose something there and still have random characters....
So instead of implementing a Character menu where you choose the character you want to play with and then choose a skin for them, like in every single f'n multiplayer game out there, skins are implemented as "own characters"...
Oh Epic.....
