Starting Out
Fortnite: Battle Royale came in with a BANG and immediately began offering the same sort of gameplay that PUBG was already famous for. It’s important to note that Fortnite does also have some big differences that really help it stand out, and that have actually made the game more successful than PUBG.
By knowing the differences between the games, and learning how Fortnite actually works, you can be sure to collect the best gear and equipment. With a bit of reading you’ll be kicking butt, taking names and you’ll only get better as you learn many of the best kept secrets from some of the best players of Fortnite out there.
Be a player in charge of your own domain, learn what you need for success in Fortnite and become the skilled player that you’ve always wanted to be with this helpful getting started information.
Mission/overall game structure
Fortnite is structured much like a battle to the death and works in a way similar to Hunger Games if you’re familiar with the books or movies. When you get into the flying bus, you have to be the one to choose a spot to land and fight your way to the end of the match. You cannot just hide to win the game though. You have to actually fight your way to the end. The map is considerably smaller than it is on PUBG, and you’re much more likely to get into the action before the end of the round in Fortnite.
Your mission, should you choose it, is to be the last one standing if you’re in that mode. There are three different modes. The only difference between them is whether or not you are alone. Some enjoy the solo modes, while others prefer people to pair up with.
Get on the bus, choose a destination, soar down to it and loot. Once you’ve looted, you run around, taking out people, staying within the storm’s eye and making sure to stay alive. Each game depends on you strategizing your way to victory, but once you do, you will feel proud being able to make it out at the top over 100 other players.
Remember, you have to loot unless you’re going to get everyone with the pickaxe that you start off with! Your first priority should be to pick up ranged weapons, shield and ammunition when the round gets started. These items are stored away in crates, hidden within buildings and in the backs of trucks. It’s up to you to get moving quickly and to track down what you need to win each round. So get moving and track down the equipment that’s going to lead you to victory!
Differences between solo, duo, and squad modes
There are a few different modes to be aware of when you’re playing the game. Each one changes just a bit, but the game remains the same. You still have to battle your way to the end to win and you cannot just camp out.
Which mode you choose to play depends on whether or not you want to play alone or with others that are also playing to win. You can team up with those that you actually know or regulars you play around or you can have a random group of people playing chosen for you.
SOLO: Solo mode enables the player to play on their own without any teammates to work with to win. The player must make it to the top above 99 other players without any help.
DUO: Duo mode brings together a pair of players. They work together to bring the others down. They are then victors at the end together, not separately.
SQUAD : Squad mode is more of a team match than anything else. It splits the round up into two groups of 50 that have to overcome another group. Try out this mode if you want to learn what it means to work as a huge team, and experience the fun of overcoming another huge group of people. This is a good mode for making new friends as well!
Jumping from the Battle Bus/choosing where to land
Jumping from the battle bus is a must. You have to get off of it before it gets to the end of the map. It will warn you when it is about to do this. You can see all of the cities below since they are mapped out for you and each place has its name above it. You want to land in the area that you feel the most comfortable landing. Some of them have more loot, others have more shelter, many of them have more people. The choice is ultimately yours and it’s a strategic one so start trying out spots and figure out which one is best for you!
Know how to get down there, know where to go and know which spot offers what. Having this information is going to help you out immensely each time you try to win at Fortnite. This expertise takes time to develop, but with experience you’ll begin to get more comfortable with particular spaces and that’s when you’ll begin to enjoy success as well.
How to get to ground fast
Getting to the ground fast is something that a lot of people don’t know how to do or realize is important at all. You want to use the glider as much as possible when you jump from the bus in the sky. You need to move yourself to where you want to go while also trying to drop quickly.
Depending on the console you’re playing on, you can navigate your way by using the keys on the keyboard, the joystick on the console or even the mouse. You can then press down on these to move yourself closer to the ground and fall quicker.
To fall with as much speed as possible it’s important to avoid popping your parachute until the very last minute. Instead angle your character down at the ground and drop with as much speed as you can. If you don’t pop the parachute yourself the game will deploy it for you, so you never have to worry about crashing to your death.
Try to make it down there as fast as possible, especially if you’re going to a well populated, high looting area. You will want to grab all of the good loot before everyone else so
