On Fortnite, it is customary for each new season to be supported by new game mechanics. As the episodes progress, the game is therefore enriched with various features, which survive their seasons if they are successful with players. The flagship feature of this season 3 of chapter 3, however, has disconcerted more than one fan – both literally and figuratively – since it involves riding the boars and wolves that inhabit the island.
The idea is original to say the least, and resonates well with the "return to roots and nature" dictated by the theme of the season "Vibin". However, she had a knack for making the Battle Royale completely crazy, for a simple and good reason: it is always possible to build from the back of a boar or a wolf. So inevitably, seeing pro buildfights between two players perched on giant pigs is quite funny .
The pig shooter, you had to think about it!
The ride functionality fits perfectly with the gameplay of the Zero Build mode, which has acquired its acclaim since the previous season. On the other hand, things are a little more aesthetically spiced up in "with construction" mode, especially when the pros improvise themselves as wild riders... On Twitter and Reddit, clips of aberrant buildfights on animal backs abound . Did you think Fortnite couldn't be more cartoony and second degree than it already was? You were wrong!
Fun anyway
With this new feature, Fortnite moves a little further away from tryhard TPS status, and becomes more rooted in its goofy, anything-goes playground aspect. It is common knowledge that Epic Games is aimed more at the "casu" population than at competitors, and this feature is the perfect proof of that.
