Lately, a lot of Tweets were criticizing the B.R.U.TE — last feature that was added to Fortnite. According to them, it's not even over-powered: it's a weapon of mass destruction which doesn't fit the competitive aspect of the game.
However, Epic Games doesn't feel the same as most of their players.
The B.R.U.T.E aims at giving players the opportunity to enjoy Royal Victories while having maximum fun. The first objective of this new Season 10 feature was to give less experienced players the possibility to reach Top 1.
Fights that will actually use the exoskeleton should be something rare, therefore Epic Game made some tweaks on the B.R.U.T.E. especially within the Arena mode. The rate of appearance has become less frequent in order to avoid unbalanced battles at the end of the game with the titanic armor.
We can note that since its adjustments, the average number of eliminations has dropped drastically.
To summarize Epic Games statement, features that will shake the gameplay of Fortnite won't stop to come. The ultimate goal is to make sure that every game is entertaining for everyone. Were you afraid of B.R.U.T.E? Well, just wait until they release killing drones...
