    If you have friends to play with and want to devote a good chunk of time into it, Fortnite can showcase a lot of entertaining times with some great teamwork and cooperative builds. As it stands right now though, I think gamers should wait a little while and see what gets added, changed and tweaked. Maybe by then there will be some more variety added to spruce up the tired repetitive gameplay and it will be more of a game that will make a more positive impression on those who play it.

    I can't recommend this game and the behavior of the developers is forcing me to write my first review. I used the feedback button many times,I can't recommend this game and the behavior of the developers is forcing me to write my first review. I used the feedback button many times, I adressed directly on twitter, I wrote on Facebook and I wrote an email to the supporters. But they just don't care. All they want to hear are positive news about their game. There is no will in improving or making better.

    I bought the Founders Edition deluxe, with a copy for my daughter. So I spent 90 € on this game. And first, especially if you see videos everything is so exciting and new. The gameplay is smooth, the characters are fine, the loot is overwhelming (at first).

    But if you are into the game for a few hours, you recognize it is a big cash maschine. The only way to loot and lvl your gear up is through llamas. And the normal llamas, as well as the rare llamas are containing a lot of trash.

    I opened, thanks to the Founders deluxe editions hundres of llamas. So far not one single legendary character or weapon. Just normal stuff.

    The biggest problem of this game is, that there is no sense in doing all that. The zombies don't drop loot. The treasures in the world are only for the next games, no chance to find any schematics. You do the same over and over again for nothing. This game is, with this state of play, a total waste of time and money.

    They just want, you put more and more money into that game for a really boring early access. I played hundreds of games in my life. But this game so far is the first game I regret spending money on.

    The behavior and the goals of the developers are really something you should be aware of!

    Not going to waste a bunch of time writing a long review. Simply put, Fortnite is fun for the first few hours, then becomes stale. The gameNot going to waste a bunch of time writing a long review. Simply put, Fortnite is fun for the first few hours, then becomes stale. The game starts to feel repetitive after a while, and you end up feeling like there's not much more to do other than what's already been done. There's a great basis for an amazing game, I just feel like the execution isn't there. Full Review »

    Game does not encourage co-op play. Tons of grinding. Boring core game loop that's heavily gated by F2P and SLOW mission progression.Game does not encourage co-op play. Tons of grinding.
