Damn
Watched the whole trailer frame by frame lits of cool stuff
-new weapons
-classes?
-ability to hide in objects
-ability to pick up a downed team mate (though maybe it's tied to a class system)
-swimming
- environment acting like expected (gas pump explodes instead of just disappearing)
I'll have to look again and add

Yeah the water looks loads better. I thought I was out. I haven't played since week 7 of this past season but dammit I might bite
New map, new game mechanics, new weapons, new vehicles, new leveling and progression system, possibly updated visuals.
Yep, same old fortnite....
Funny that is literally when I stopped as well. I still really enjoy it but my new job is just murdering all my free time.
I probably will. Quit after season 8 because all I was doing was farm challenges and didn't like playing like that. This is looking to greatly refresh the game though, so I'm gonna try it again.
It's not starting any downloads on PS4 in Europe. Says I have the latest version.
Yep, sad stuff for StW. Why is it so hard for them to put like 30 new people on that team and make it something special?
The game doesn't generate a lot of revenue I guess. Hopefully that changes when it goes F2P and they find a way to monetize it, perhaps with cosmetics like BR. Right now the only thing you can use v bucks on are llamas and those aren't worth it.
Hopefully Frostnite 2.0 is right around the corner

I've got to say I'm disappointed with the start of Chapter 2. I don't hate it but it's kinda mmmmmeh. In their weird "back to basics" boner they've stripped it way too much and now it's just way too basic. Shoot and build. Shoot and build. No shockwaves grenades. No grapplers. No fun vehicles. I thought that outside the shitty mech, the game was in a fairly good place item/weapon-wise.
And the new map is kinda boring. It just looks all the same, doesn't have the kind of clear, unique POIs and distinct areas. Just green hill after green hill, not all that many places that look interesting to explore. A pretty big downgrade from what we had before.

I feel 100% the opposite. Just played the intro match and WOW I'm blown away. Love the map, too. Everything just feels and looks like butter now. Shooting is fun as ever. Just gotta re-kajigger my control scheme again.
tfw there could have been an awesome "crossover" with StW and the end/beginning of chapter 2.
But nope. It was basically just the game being down for 2 days for nothing.
Isn't the VA for "The Scientist" the same one for Dr. Vinderman? I mean...that could have been amazing.
The intro was cool. But I've done all the week 1 challenges and in that time I've come to miss a lot of stuff from just a few days ago with nothing too interesting replacing it (the motorboat is boring). The map hasn't really been offering much in the way of cool locations even in this short time with Ch. 2.
The power plant, dam, and beach are all awesome so far from what I can tell. Still need to check out more locations. The map has a refreshing feel to it too, and the graphics update looks great with it. I like that it feels like a higher altitude biome so it has somewhat of a crisp and woodsy/mountainous feel.
Imo a big upgrade from the first map, and we needed one badly since the old map was so tired.
In terms of items, I don't feel like I'm missing anything too important yet. I'm sure they'll introduce some more new tools and weapons in the months to come.

literally saw none and by the time I got all my keybinds back, I couldn't farm shit

The power plant was visually pretty cool but as a looting place it was pretty weak from what I visited it. The beach is maybe the best place in the new map, the rest is pretty boring.
First "real" game I get, land and get a burst, then another burst, then a sniper.
First guy next to me gets a shotgun.
Iconic already.

Well to each their own I suppose! I think at the very least we can agree this is a decent fresh starting point for them to start adding items, gradually changing the map over time, and making the gameplay more complex as we move through the seasons.
Also the Battlepass is pretty good too, especially beyond the skins. The Rippley gun skin is soooo sexy.

Same reason apex doesnt, they don't want to maintain multiple maps
So how the hell does the punchcard thing work ? Looks like a daily grind, considering we have no fucking idea how much we'll have to play to get level 100 BP, that fucking sucks
In Apex's case I think they're going to reintroduce KC at some point actually. This is a temporary situation to minimise people quitting from KC because they want to play WE.
I hit punch card max level quick. No idea how but it says come back tomorrow. I was just playing normally and it was done quick.
