I have been playing Fortnite around a year ago with my friend Zuko for hunderds of hours and I really think that this game is amazing! I haven’t touched it since because they have reset all of the game progress. I will invite some of you to the game as soon as I get more invites!
Fortnite is still under NDA until July 20 at 10 a.m. Eastern/7 a.m. Pacific but I guess I can at least describe what it is.
I would say it’s a nice mix of a survival game, Minecraft like building but a little bit more complex, Left 4 Dead because of hordes attacking your structures and finally a nice TPP shooter (although you can switch to FPS camera mode). The game looks really good because it’s powered by the mighty Unreal Engine 4.x. However it is a little bit demanding when it comes to PC hardware, you need at least 8GB of RAM and something more powerful than GeForce GTX 680 to play it smoothly. Mobile GPUs can’t really handle the game unless it’s the 9xx family of cards.
Epic Games have significantly changed the game over the last few years (since first E3 announcement), the have added cut-scenes, more characters, balanced the shit out of the game. I’m playing it once more and can’t wait until it comes out! The game enters Early Access on July 25 for PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
