Fornite is no longer a game it's a platform for games. I wonder if shitty movie tie-in games are now going to be shitty movie tie-in games, but they're on Fortnite.

[-] schizo@forum.uncomfortable.business 12 points 2 months ago

Well, fortnite is already full of shitty movie tie-in skins, so that's not much of a jump.

[-] Lojcs@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

What makes them shitty? They don't look so bad imo

[-] slimerancher@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

It's cool to hate everything Fortnite.

[-] devils_advocate@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

T2. Alien. Predator. John Wick.

[-] Chozo@fedia.io 6 points 2 months ago

Fortnite is a commercial that occasionally breaks out into a game.

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 41 points 2 months ago

All games eventually evolve a counterstrike mod. It's the carcinisation of games.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I thought that was a battle royale mode?

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Just one of the many steps along the road to perfection: counterstrike.

[-] nawa@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Not always, Apex Legends added a 3v3 Arenas mode on smaller maps way after the initial battle royale release.

While this is peripherally interesting to hear, without Linux support ^[1][2]^, I am not personally interested.

    • [Is there ANY way I can run Fortnite on linux?]

      Nope. No way there because of their anti cheat solution. Sorry.

Thank you for noticing ๐Ÿ˜Š ยญโ€” I have hope that it's a practice that will catch on eventually. I do my best to not engage in conjecture: If I make any claim, I try to make sure that I cite it. The same sort of thing goes for anything derived from logic โ€” ie I do my best to describe my thought processes to make sure that I reduce the possibility of incorrect assumptions being made on anything that I post. It's a little bit tedious at times, but I think it's important.

Damn shame Linux is so unfriendly to anti cheats. So many people would switch if their games actually ran, including I.

[-] lime@feddit.nu 12 points 2 months ago

other way around, anticheats are unfriendly to linux. they violate the security model of the system, and they don't even have to.

epic's anticheat even has a working Linux version that you can enable with a toggle in the management interface. devs just don't do it. this includes epic.

[-] DieserTypMatthias@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

But it only works in user mode. That's why some cheats are FOSS on Linux.

!Let's hope that there will be some cheat that allows Fortnite to function on Linux.!<

[-] Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Damn shame Linux is so unfriendly to anti cheats.

What about Linux do you think is "unfriendly to anti cheats"?

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

That's what I say on my first dates

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

... has there been a second?

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Only for chicks for whom it also is backwards

[-] datavoid@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 months ago

Thank god "kicks" are supported in this mode, or else I wouldn't be able to show my support for nike

[-] snugglesthefalse@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

It's a shame cs is one of the worst-feeling shooters for me... actually fortnite's shooting felt awful too, it's a huge part of why I couldn't get into it.

[-] DieserTypMatthias@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago

At least Counter-Strike is on Linux.

[-] DieserTypMatthias@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Why the fuck don't they just focus on Save the World!? It's the only best game mode in that game! Also, why they can't bring this mode to Switch?
