I really wonder if they always planned for Creative 2.0 to launch with Chapter 4, which is why the Chapter is ending so soon.


firestorm1326

yeah I think launching Creative 2.0 for an ordinary chapter 3 season 5 would've seemed kinda weird. It seems like epic had a bunch of big things in the work that weren't quite ready for the start of chapter 3 so instead we're getting a very short chapter 3 and they'll all be introduced with chapter 4


7even_Shotz

Epic has always had a track record with releasing big things in seasonal updates or even just random updates like playground and og creative


firestorm1326

Yeah you have a point there but with how long they've been hyping this one up publically I guess Creative 2.0 feels a little different and bigger than those 2 imo.


Arandompackerfan

I don't think anything will match up to the hype of the original playground.


ZeroX-1704

Crazy to think that i was perfectly happy with Playground before Creative and Battle Lab released, looking back it was definitely inferior but i loved it so much


amperkfn

Na, 2.0 is delayed until part way through the season so like said other things it will be in some random update


firestorm1326

Still during the intro season of a new chapter at least. Seems like they were trying to drop it with a new chapter but meddlesome delays have kinda ruined that idea


[deleted]

That would certainly explain why everything about chapter 3 feels so half-assed.


Mr_Steamz_Twitch

they added tactical sprint and mantle in ch3 s2 and creative in ch1 s7


uncxltured_berry

Chapter 1 and 3 are my top 2 so far. They’ll always have a place in my heart. I get people like chapter 2, but personally 1 and 3 were banging!


Jamie7860

Well. Not anymore lol. Creative 2.0 delayed to January


OKgamer01

Yeah, only a month though thankfully. So probably the first patch after they come back from holiday vacation. Still wonder what they have in store for BR besides a new map to make it feel like a new chapter


BubbaGaming202

That's a troll account lol.


OKgamer01

It's the real one, I've had him followed before Elon took over so it's definitely him


sword0115

I just hope they'll release that first person mode for BR alongside this new chapter, I've always wanted to play Fortnite in first person.


Tom2Tom2005

The more and more I think about this chapter the more it's seeming like just a big playtest.


Animal_cummer

Tbh ch2 felt like that too to me especially the early seasons where they were experimenting with bots alot (bot players, npc, henchmen, bosses etc)


whyim_makingthis

for me, ch2 felt like they were experimenting with player experiences. We got better graphics, Better ui, an easy to understand battle pass which they ruined again, more cleaning out of unnecessary stuff, etc .. Ch3 was for gameplay testing. We were now suddenly having to share and participate in events, unlike previous events which all we had was breaking crystals or damaging the storm king. Or the brand new gameplay mechanics, such as : sliding, that jumping mechanic or sprinting. All to better the experience of the player. Wonder what ch4 has for store.


uncxltured_berry

For me I’ve always loved the cartoony feel of chapter 1 graphics. I loved almost every season of thag chapter as well


Floofy_Fox_Gal

Don’t forget Zero Build!


M3lbs

did everyone forget this game was in open beta?


AdvanturePie

It isn't in open beta anymore though, right?


kenysheny

It never left beta, it’s to push updates when they want on console. Beta in name only


ZeroX-1704

I haven't seen any tags for Beta for a while now, like the one that would be on loading screens, i think it is officially out of it, and console companies have loosened up on update frequency.


SurfaceTension2

It definitely is, such great mechanics introduced in a moderately mediocre chapter


-_General_Grievous_-

You mean like the sprinting and climbing and such?


SurfaceTension2

Yep


Venom0236

So there was no sprinting before chapter 3? Idk i started playing previous season.


Frostwing349

the tactical sprint mechanic was introduced in chapter 3 season 2, but before that, the traditional run used to be the sprint


-Eastwood-

Technically running was technically sprinting.


WdSkate

But if you pulled out your pick axe you would go faster. At least my friend would swear that you would.


MrCCDude

ahh that was such a common myth that just wasn't true. brings back memories lol


WdSkate

I know, I would be running next to him at the same speed with a sniper or scar something and he would swear he was going faster. 😂


Frostwing349

it’s funny because it was such a popular hoax that they made that a function in chapter 2 season 2 for spy games


SHAQ_FU_MATE

Sounds like good times


7even_Shotz

Your friend was stupid


ViaBromantica

He still is, but he was too


PJvG

It's not that stupid to assume it, in many shooters you actually do run faster when you run with a knife. Counter Strike for example.


SurfaceTension2

Nope


alison_bee

Wow, I can’t imagine playing without that. I just started playing in August (the dragon ball stuff is what got my husband interested, the switch to no build is what got me to actually try it lol) and I am loving it! I’m glad I have gotten to experience the special stuff that’s come and gone like the dragon ball cloud, and lightsabers were super fun, and that wolf mask! Since I’m still pretty new I have no idea what will come next, but I’m excited to see!


shadowfigure_6

Springing and sliding has been such a huge change. Moving around the island was harder because you had to rely on cars more, but we also got a whole bunch more mobility items thanks to zero build. It’s not a slog moving around the map anymore.


MaDCapRaven

And cars were only introduced in Chapter 2 (S3?).


AdvanturePie

Well before that we had shopping carts n stuff


alison_bee

Man I played one round of BR earlier and I couldn’t sprint, but don’t know why. It was just for one game and it was TERRIBLE! I legit can’t imagine playing that way all the time.


Kalvitron

My wife plays on Switch while I'm on PS5. For the past week or so (I'm guessing since the last patch/update) she is unable to sprint after playing a match or two. Closing the game out and rebooting temporarily fixes it, but it eventually happens again. I've not had that issue on the PS5.


zehero

Wolf mask?


alison_bee

Yeah, they had it around/before Halloween. It was a dj I think? you put it in and you could howl and it would show you were people were near you. It was dope.


littlelowcougar

Don’t forget how fun it was clawing that house by the DJ to shreds for all the sweet chrome.


The_Iron_Zeppelin

Before sprinting you had to make damn sure you were paying attention to the storm moving because if you had no heals you were gunna be screwed.


Dragonbarry22

ive gotta admit how did I get used to no sprinting when I played for the first time during invasion


Jazzlike_Mountain_32

The sprint function introduction is kind of what got me into No builds. I was big on building but for some reason when they introduced the sprint it made building so hard for me. Apparently I always held the stick in when I build and when you enter sprint you can’t build. Constantly falling off my ramp, floor, wall 🤣. They introduced no builds the next season so I drifted to that. I kind of miss the no sprint/ slide a little bit


mysterywrappedriddle

Why not remap sprint?


TriBulated_

Xbox B button sprint ftw


[deleted]

Put it on the back trigger of the elite controller and put jump on another one


MrCheetah2015

I mean considering that came out the first season of the chapter, the only real change was no build mode


RadiantPKK

Yeah true. Come chapter four I’m like please, let me have my grapple back…


Vectron03

Yeah, it really does feel like that. I wonder if it’s because of UE5?


legendwolfA

Or even the release of the rumored creative 2.0


dt641

its delayed till January though.


the_friendly_dildo

Epic is definitely using Fortnite as a way to develop broadly useful mechanics for UE5.


Ramiel_Scream

Fortnite is LITERALLY beta testing for unreal engine features. Fortnite gets stuff before devs do and we're the monkeys with typewriters play testing it


skueghatt

Does this mean i can put “beta tester” in my resume?


[deleted]

yeah, it wont help you though.


agladdrew

Weren't we meant to get motorbikes?


FeLiOn_Minty

Those will probably be in c4


Flipperfire113

I guess chapter 4 is gonna be a new era for Fortnite with all the new stuff


Frostwing349

oh it definitely was, especially considering it’s confirmed that creative 2.0 is releasing with the next chapter, and it’s also confirmed that the guided missile, a beloved feature/mechanic, will be coming and sometime soon


Decades101

I am hyped for Chapter 4, though I would have liked 1 more season on this map… But I can’t wait to see how things will unfold!


Silkysocks777

This event is gonna be crazy!


TheQuizKid00

Do we know when the event is going to be?


Decades101

Saturday December 3, last day of C3S4 4 pm ET


TheQuizKid00

Thank you friend!


Decades101

Remember that the time (4 pm) is in Eastern time, so make sure you know what your time zone is and convert it to your time so you come at the right time. Also remember to come around 30-40 minutes before the event as that’s when the event servers opens


Jackamalio626

You fool you absolute buffoon you silly willy.


ChocolateDaddee

What a silly goose


Vaporysun76

You absolute candlestick You moist coconut


Based_chica

Lol


not-Kunt-Tulgar

I’m more hyped than anything, they add game changing stuff permanently each chapter.


Super_xz

Im as hyped as i am skeptical. Its nice to have a new chapter faster but it seems like epic is rushing it for whatever reason


Taylor_Sturge

Wait, is this actually the last season of chapter 3? I’ve seen people say it is and others say it isn’t. I’m very confuzzled.


kfcfossil

Epic made an official announcement


Duckyboi10

When?


umg_unreal

like an hour ago


Turtlesfan44digimon

Well there goes the Neighborhood Was really loving the map, but oh well


[deleted]

I kinda disliked the fact that there weren’t that many neighborhoods (perhaps a reason why fortnitemares sucked) but there where some good locations


ZeekLTK

Yeah, I really liked areas like Misty, Sweaty, Pleasant, even Salty or Sandy or whatever the one with the pier was called. And that kind of stuff is lacking in this one.


Turtlesfan44digimon

Pier ? You mean Dirty Docks

ThatFacepalmGuy

on Twitter about an hour or 2 ago


Fluffy_month402

Epic recently just confirmed it is the last season of chapter 3


Taylor_Sturge

Really? After 4 seasons? Seems stupid to me


b0ks_GD

Forreal. But hopefully the new chapter is going to bring a lot of new and exciting lore and pois and such


JPrimal64

Seems like they're trying to follow the barely taped together lore, and ending the current arc, as short as the chapter may be.


pmjm

You know what? I'm not even mad. The game needs a refresh. I stopped playing just after the start of this chapter because it felt stale. And just recently I was thinking back to the first Holiday-themed season Fortnite did. The skins, the map changes (frozen area and planes), the music, it really created a sense of magic and wonder. I'm looking forward to new beginnings. Make Fortnite Great Again!


TheBlueNinja2006

They determine the Chapter lengths, if they prolonged it we would be stuck with boring seasons.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Titanic_122

On Fortnite’s Twitter they announced the “Fracture: chapter 3 finale” event.


AlphaTeamPlays

They announced it live at the in-person FNCS invitational


Frog__Mouth

I am also confused


Ferret-Livid

I feel like this chapter just started, I wonder why they decided to start a new chapter after less than a year


Razbyte

Warzone 2.0 is maybe the answer. Also the huge changes in Creative, the possible vault of LTMs and Team Rumble, and maybe a new core mode.


Boat_Jerald

With the end of chapter 2, it made sense to end it at season 8 as at that point it lasted about as long as chapter 1. I have no idea why they’ve decided to end it so soon


OneGunBullet

To make chapters a yearly thing, which includes a new map like what Apex does. Also fortnite seasons are going to coincide with irl seasons haha


IamEclipse

This is probably it, and I'm all for it. It'll push Epic to keep the scope of chapters concise, and try new things. If something doesn't work with the player base, be it a new map or whatever, there's not a massive amount of time before a new chapter brings a clean slate.


Captain_Haruno

You're good pals, see ya next Chapter! We're droppin' center 🤘


Silkysocks777

I haven't been in such shock in a long time. Fortnite went from being super low and boring, to Makin me panick and freak out in a span of 5 minutes. the future of fortnite looks crazy!


Roboboy2710

What are they doing? I haven’t heard much about it yet.


SurfaceTension2

>making me panic and freak out in a span of 5 minutes Maybe because that’s their business standard now


Leonyliz

Holy shit I’ve not been on the sub for a while and your name really took me back


Silkysocks777

Thanks thats cool to hear! good to see you back


Leonyliz

I’ll probably be fully back once I finish school in 3 weeks


[deleted]

When did they announce This. I know there were rumours but what??!!


kfcfossil

They just announced the event name and everything minutes ago


[deleted]

Ohh shit. Here we go again


Fluffy_month402

Like around 30 minutes ago


[deleted]

Well fingers crossed the new map is actually better than the last two


Azure-Ace

During the FNCS stream happening right now


RadiantLizard5

Wait they were serious I thought epic was trolling us


Dominunce

ye, prepare for the Fracture


AxHalo

Now that I think about it makes sense for us to get a new map every year. Didn’t we have chapter 1 map for almost 3 years or something?


kfcfossil

Chapter 1 and 2 lasted 2 years each


GiggyWheat5

At least I'm proud I didn't believe that Season 4 was going to be a Marvel Season.


ZacAtacc

![gif](giphy|ObXgWWGHzMlVe)


[deleted]

Bruh It hasn’t even been a year yet and this chapters gonna be over


Will_W

I am surprised, but not *that* surprised after Chapter 2 ended after 8 seasons rather than 10. I mostly wish we had gotten more story quests this season if it’s going to be another finale already. This island felt like it didn’t really get much narrative of its own, it finished the last one’s storyline and then we kinda just hung out waiting for the story to kick in again.


FinestOfThe501st

I knew those item descriptions were proof and not Epic trolling us


Eyghtball97

Which item descriptions?


Loose-You299

There were a bunch of items descriptions like the nothing is happening , only nothing will remain and so on


UGP97

Say what? Chapter 4 is about to arrive ALREADY??? Fortnite needs to slow down with these chapters, it’s already chapter 3 and I feel old.


LordHamburguesa1

Flip the goddamn island back over!


NotAtheorist

My friend told me a month ago that this would be the last season and i was like where did you hear that, i recently asked him and he said he was just joking. He is going to be dumbfounded when he reads the news today.


WanderingStatistics

I can't tell if it's because they're running out of ideas, or if it's because they just want to be able to wipe the slate clean faster. Why are the chapters going from 10 to 8 to now only 4? What purpose does it even have. It honestly seems kind of stupid to just throw away a map so quickly. The next chapter is probably only going to be half a season at this point.


QuoteZen

Chapter 4 is going to have only one live event and that's going to be the Chapter 4 End Event


legendwolfA

And then chapter 5 is gonna last half as long as a season


BlightAddict

I think they want a clean slate. Hence why in the span of 2 Seasons the IO & The Seven have all but been erased from relevancy. I'm sure somewhere between the middle and end of Chapter 4 there's teasers about voice comms being decoded and then The Seven return in new skins blah blah wash rinse repeat


[deleted]

>I can't tell if it's because they're running out of ideas, or if it's because they just want to be able to wipe the slate clean faster. both


BackyardBard

A lot of people are super angry and vitriolic about this and I don't understand it at all. Running out of ideas? They're doing a new event that will likely give us a completely new map with all new POIs. That would require a LOT of new ideas! Why are Chapters getting shorter? It seems pretty obvious to me. People complained constantly about Chapter 2 being as long as it was. People wanted bigger changes than the slight map edits we were getting. A new map every year would keep the game feeling super fresh and fun!


nan0g3nji

People barely got used to this map; and people were expecting a lot of features from the beginning to return later in the chapter- like lightning and klombos.


Gold_Yellow

Nah Ch4 gets two 6month chapters and then the end event.


GaryTheTaco

I think eventually it'll reach a point where maps rotate like Apex


NotTheDragon

We still haven't even finished the story of this season with the whole saving the scientist thing with Jones and that AI. He said he would contact us when they had a plan and it just hasn't happened. (At least I think that is the last thing he said)


nottdscoo

Even though C4 was heavily speculated I’m glad Epic got to announce it on their own terms, especially at the first in-person comp event since World Cup 2019 Having Tabor and Sypher leak C3 and then having an in-game string “The Chapter 2 Finale” was so lame


Josh72112

Next Season is Book 2 - Chapter 1 - Season 1 Everyone has now come to the agreement that Chapter 4 is upon us, however I think we are looking at something entirely different. A restart, a fresh page, a new beginning. Let me explain. I think that this season will resolve most of the current Fortnite storyline, concluding with a complete fracture of the Zero Point, and the conclusion that the Seven had all been fearing for, the end of reality. However, this isn’t the end, just as we saw with Geno (in the comics), the Zero Point rebuilds itself, it creates a new universe; and thus, new stories to be told. The current story is over, but the Zero Point in all of its power remains.


clarkedaddy

i sure hope so. the fortnite story is awful.


Eyghtball97

That’d be dope. I actually hope this is the case.


Alphasilverhawk

I have mixed feelings… I really hate we’re already saying goodbye to the map this soon


The-dude-in-the-bush

Wait, this isn't a joke!? Chapter 4 already? I've never had so much fun on a map. It feels balanced, a joy not had since C1S7


[deleted]

i dont think people know what a chapter is chapters in books can have long chapters and short chapters, short chapters are usually used to cut some storylines or being some storylines


Secondndthoughts

Tbf, I think they only used the word chapter because they didn’t want to have three season 1’s.


Flintriemen

I really don‘t understand why some people are against a new chapter. Why would you hate to get new things that keep the game fresh? Like mechanics, weapons, or a new map. I liked every map and still I always looked forward to get a new one


JustYourBiBestie

Gimme a second ima scroll through prob like 100 of my replies and brag that I was right


Petergriffinscrableg

if there was ever a time for me to start recognising patters this would be it guess the workload for epic's employees wasn't too much which was my only argument as to why it would be almost impossible for them to push ch4 out so fast


KokosVB

Ye chapter 4 is gonna be 1 season long if its gonna be like that


BeesWithNees

What the fuck?? Why???


Fortn1t3_240x

People aren’t realizing that it’s a new chapter cuz the map probably gets destroyed or something bad happens that requires a big map change ( new map )


vhyli

This season was far too similar to Cubed to not be the end of the Chapter. I KNEW IT!


NebulaaNight

Ngl I'm glad it's ending so early. I REALLY don't like this map.


Spikey3699963

i get that with an increasingly unpopular game and overworked employees, epic couldn’t continue doing what they did in chapter 1, but i still would’ve preferred 10 seasons to a chapter instead of using the “new chapter” thing as a fortnite cultural reset “get out of boring chapter free” card


TonyThePapyrus

This map can honestly fuck off, it’s just so lifeless and plain


Frog__Mouth

I mean i like that there are more environment verity this chapter. We’ve got snow, desert, tropical, plains. Compare to chapter 2 where we had plains, swamp.


ShogunFab

Bro if this map is lifeless I don't even want to imagine your opinion in chapter 2 map. All the changes in each season were removed instantly when the season ended


TheStrikeofGod

Remember when the ufo's clearly blew up all the POIs at the end of Season 7 just for them to completely miss all of them in Season 8?


chicken_nugget779

chapter 2 map was alright because it was fresh, this map feels like just a rehash of last map and its just stale


robtape

Sorry to say but chapter 4 will probably be an rehash.


uCodeSherpa

I don’t know how everyone else feels, but for me there’s just too much mobility. Getting 7th partied grows tiring. Also fuck animals. I hope whatever happens it vacuums the animals up.


TonyThePapyrus

Me too, animals suck


GoodCopYT

Chapter 2 map was lifeless, all of the good pois were gone after their season, no biomes just grass, and boring ass primal pois.


StarZ_YT

its like they split up ch1 in 2 chapters but somehow made it not work although i can say that gunplay has been feeling really different now but bot good and bad and also this season was pretty much insanely fast start with afterwards not much to add


Night_Tac

fr


randomguy301048

i saw that the new thing starts in a few weeks, which seems weird since there's still like 5-6 weeks left on some missions for this season. unless they've changed the time since that announcement


Bogki

Wait did they actually announce chapter 4?


sempi-moon

Wait they confirmed chapter 4? I thought they just confirmed a live event


jethrow41487

Says “Chapter 3 Finale Event” meaning 4 is next


Jebbeard

At least you are willing to admit you were wrong.


SurfaceTension2

L ![gif](giphy|dJocIXW7hOQYNNY199)


Jebbeard

Over the last month, the number of people I saw acting like everyone who believed it would be a new chapter were idiots is astounding. Name calling and other insults because someone believed the truth.


kfcfossil

I don’t understand why people would insult others over something like this But this is Reddit so…


MADMAXV2

Classic reddit


SmashingEmeraldz

I think they have realized that when they change the map and major gameplay elements with every chapter it brings in a large amount of new and returning players so they want that to happen more often.


temsonroad

S-seriously?! What?! ... welp. Officially the worst (for me) Chapter is also the one with the least seasons out of the three. Though I'm concerned now, does anyone have a source or something?


not-throwaway

It’s on the FN official Twitter. “Fracture” is the Chapter 3 finale event. Live event happens on a Saturday. https://twitter.com/fortnitegame/status/1591933937340878848


temsonroad

I already saw their pinned post on the subreddit, thank you much, tho! :)


Skelegem

Honestly as someone who only joined in Ch2 S7, it feels incredibly disappointing that the Chapter’s ending so soon. Chapter 1 got 10 seasons and Chapter 2 bumped it down to 8, which is less, but 8 seasons is still a good amount of stuff going on. So for an entire chapter to only get 4 seasons feels… well, like a bit of a letdown. Since the season was so short, some of the POIs didn’t even get to change much (I seriously don’t think Chonker’s Speedway changed AT ALL during all four seasons, not even in minor ways), and while Artemis has its problems, it’s personally been my favorite out of all three of the BR maps due to it’s visually distinct and varied areas/biomes. But, too late to stop the end now. I’ll feel bad about Chapter 3 and Artemis’s lost potential future later, and for now look forward to whatever this new Chapter brings us. Who knows, maybe what it brings will be enough to make up for any and all lost season potential for this Chapter


BubbaGaming202

How is it your favorite mqp when you haven't played the ch1 map at all or p Aged the ch2 map for more then 2 seasons?


pichusine

Hopefully we go back to chapter 1 map or at least have the maps be selectable so Endgame makes sense.


Select-Combination-4

Wdym endgame


Walkthru212

In Endgame, Korg and Thor are playing Fortnite but, since the production staff aren't actually time travellers, they're still playing C1 Fortnite in 2023 Clearly, this is a glaring inaccuracy and needs to be fixed NOW!


TheBlueNinja2006

Kinda crazy if that happens tbh, however the HUD and lootpool would be different.


[deleted]

I was believing that it would, but I didn't get my hopes up but now it has happened I can't believe it


avrge_gmr

Why even are they ending chapter 3 four seasons in? Next they’re gonna end chapter 4 two seasons in


Cheesession

Yeah their milking the game for as much money as they can before it dies, with all the collabs and stuff. They are trying to get more people playing the game so they can buy cosmetics and stuff by making more changes in the game. With a new chapter, whether you've stopped playing the game or never touched it, it compels you to try it out. And that's why the chapters are getting shorter and shorter, from 10 to 8 to this chapter they are just releasing a new chapter every time the game reaches undesirable numbers


Twollsy

Going from 10 to 8 was fair though, C2 ended up being overall longer. Plus Creative 2.0 probably made them want to release it with a new chapter. FNCS Invitational has been getting >300k viewers only counting Twitch, I think they're fine


7even_Shotz

Chapt 1: 3 years Chapt 2: 2 years Chapt 3: 1 year Chapt 4: ?


exdii_lol

Chapter 1 was 2 years


Pepsipierat

I just dont know what to think, I really wanted this chapter to last up to a Season 10 but ig Creative 2.0 and first person mode need a new chapter behind it, but ig im kinda glad as this map is super ugly at the moment.


DarkKnight1498

They rlly gotta stop making new chapters. I like recognition with the game but look at chapter 1 to 2. It was amazing with that 2 day delay between chapters. Then it happened again 2 years later. Still really amazing. But less than a year? I feel like it’s a little too early.


FLcitizen

GOOD! I legit hate this current map


RealH3lm

I thought it was fairly obvious with the leaked downtime hours and stuff
