To be a builder or not to be a builder. Far from being a soliloquy, it is one of the issues that has divided the community of Fortnite since its launch. The battle royale of Epic Games distanced itself from the other bets, in addition to its more sympathetic and less realistic style, due to the possibility of build small or huge forts during the games themselves.
This mechanic has been extrapolated to events such as 50v50, which pitted two teams of 50 players each against each other in a “team duel” with construction, again, as the mainstay. However, the disappearance of this mechanic at the beginning of Season 2 of Chapter 3 of Fortnite has left a question:the game is better without her?
Each player has an answer to that question, but the soft delete of this mechanic, at least in the base mode of the battle royalehas attracted a huge group of players, so Epic Games has decided to create a separate mode called “Battle Royale No Construction“. Its name leaves little to doubt. We are talking about a game mode separate from the base experience where players will not be able to build, although they can demolish structures.
In this game mode you will keep the rechargeable total shieldinherited from this first event of Season 2, which will give players increased defense now that they can’t build defense barriers. Epic Games has also added different elevators to reach elevated areas and climbing skills.
Although the suppression of this mechanic occurred in the base mode of the game, the competitive mode kept the construction as it is part of the essence of the game. So Epic Games give in to pressure of some players quite unhappy with the idea of the temporality of the “no construction” mode and split your experience to reach a larger audience.
