Epic games has released a new software update for their popular Fornite game, the update is Fortnite v4.3 and it brings some new features and also come changes to the game.
There are also come changes to weapons in the games, Shotguns are not as powerful as they were previous. Epic has also announced that the jetpack will be remove from the game on the 11th of June.
Shotguns
For a while we felt that Shotguns promoted healthy close quarter gameplay, however with the recent equip time changes, Shotguns are being used more often than we like. It’s something we’ve been keeping an eye on, but broadly speaking we feel Shotguns are a little too strong in their current state. As a result, we’re making these adjustments:
- Pump Shotgun
- Headshot multiplier reduced from 2.5 to 2.0
- Damage reduced from 90/95 to 80/85
- Tactical Shotgun
- Headshot multiplier reduced from 2.5 to 2.0
Shotgun consistency across the board is also something we’re looking into and aim to improve. We want to make it more apparent when you hit or miss a shot. In addition to that, making sure the accuracy is more consistent and improving other odd behaviors with the weapon is a top priority. We’ve identified a number of issues that we’re currently working on solving in the near future.
