At this time of writing, Fortnite is currently unplayable as the servers are down for the upgrade to v4.2.Īdded Epic and Legendary Burst Assault Rifles. For all the notes, including Save the World, check them out here. Here are the crib notes from Fortnite’s V4.2 patch. Other notable additions include the ability to auto-pickup weapons on PC and console, changes to sound from above and below, C4 finally becoming viable with stat changes, and the suppressed submachine gun not being quite as terrible. Sounds strange, but if you’re just coming out of a hellish build-fight with no meds, an apple a day could keep the lobby away. By foraging for apples throughout the trees on the map, you can gain health with each apple replenishing five health until you reach maximum health. Consider how easy it is to rip through enemies with the standard bursts, this new weapon could be absolutely lethal.Įlsewhere, the most notable introduction is probably unexpected. Metal Gear Solid fans will recognise it as a FAMAS and it does 32/33 damage (Epic/Legendary). The most notable of the new introductions is the new Burst Assault Rifle, which will be available in Epic and Legendary form. It’s interesting what we have to look forward to, that’s for sure. Ahead of the release of Fortnite v4.2, Epic Games have released the patch notes for what is now basically the biggest game in the world.
