A Last Saturday, "Fortnite" was to celebrate its debut in eSports. The developer Epic had been invited to kick off the tournament "Summer Skirmish". A colossal $ 250,000 was in the pot, in ten parts, players selected in teams of two were to fight pbadionate battles – but nothing came out. The interest of the player community was initially important, the public on Twitch left little to be desired. But then the technology failed. Players participating in the tournament fought with transmission delays, so-called offsets, making a fast-paced action title like "Fortnite" virtually unplayable. To be victorious through the fighting, most players have insisted on hiding in the game world and waiting for their opponents.
Fortnite: Tournament Server Problems Decisive Tournaments
It works but is incredibly boring to watch. the audience numbers quickly dropped after a short time. Nobody wanted to watch the minutes while the players squatted motionless behind a wall. Epic Games took a drastic step and broke the tournament after the fourth game. They chose a winning duo and promised that they would improve server performance for upcoming events. Hopefully after this debacle, someone else turns on again. For the organization of the "Summer Skirmish" tournament, Epic misses many things: an incredible $ 8 million prize that the developer wants to distribute for eight weeks to the winner of the competition.

Change Radical Direction
But "Fortnite" is alive Epic is reshaping key key positions, and in November 2013, the company rebadured impatient players with a commitment to "Fortnite". However, new tangible information is only available in May 2014 – in a huge cover of the US magazine "Game Informer". Many fans now hope that "Fortnite" finally appears. But they are disappointed. There are still three more years including many test phases with nearly 50,000 participants in the country. Only in July 2017, "Fortnite" in the Steam-like client of Epic Games is available for download. As with the internal multiplayer strategy game "Paragon" Epic decides first to an early access phase. Players can buy and play "Fortnite" while it is still in development. The game is off to a good start as the quality is good and Epic Games offers exactly what it promised: Cooperative Survival Action for up to four players with sophisticated build options.

However, "Fortnite" does not attract big players – unlike PlayerUnknown's BattleUnited ("PUBG"), which has taken over the heart of millions of fans since March 2017 with its Battle Royale mode. Even the developers of Epic Games captivate the principle. The studio acts and divides its employees into two teams. Group A is designed to further develop the clbadic zombie mode, making Group B appear to do something with the Battle Royale mode of "PUBG".
Free in the Mbad Market
Led by design director Eric Williamson designs for the multiplayer team a Battle Royale card that incorporates many elements of cooperative design adventure. In addition to this, manufacturers have put the rules of "PlayerUnknown" sBattlegrounds ". However, to stand out from "PUBG", games must last a maximum of 25 minutes and build options are retained. Players can fire walls or stairs in Battle Royale games to protect themselves from bombing or to overcome obstacles.
For all this, Williamson and his colleagues do not even need two months. Already on September 26, 2017, the result appears as an autonomous game under the name "Fortnite – Battle Royale". Originally, the Battle Royale mode should indeed belong to the paid Early Access variant. To meet the widest possible audience, however, Epic rejects this plan only two weeks before the planned release and opts for the free-to-play model. But not only does this promote the launch of the "Fortnite – Battle Royale" rocket. Since the title is also available on PlayStation 4, rages for the first time a whole new crowd in the battles of Battle Royale. She had previously strongly pointed to "PUBG" on the PC. And while the competitor has an odds of 18, May in the least brutal "Fortnite – Battle Royale" even players over 12 years involved.
"Fortnite – Battle Royale" is free, However, players can buy costumes, special animations or objects by microtransactions to give to their character a individual aspect. Monthly income rises to more than 100 million US dollars. Source: sportwetten.bild.de
Trying to go beyond the study
After publication, the high number of hits by developers and marketers clever to keep players in touch and continue to add new ones. For example, at the December 8 Games Games Awards: while celebrating another 30 million active players, an intelligent trailer flickers across the screen, announcing a 50 out of 50 mode.
Later, developers are launch in other experiences, such as a game mode with five teams of 20 players each. In addition, they still deliver weapons, including explosives with a remote detonator, a powerful shotgun and a remote-controlled rocket. Everything is free after the motto: Let's see what the community is doing! And she does something about it. The Rocket Remote has made countless YouTube videos in which a player controls the ball to his teammate. The comrade jumps then at the right moment and flies away. In the realistic "PUBG" such gadgets do not match. In the "Fortnite" saturated, however, they are the icing on the cake. Incidentally, after two weeks of rocket propulsion, the developers again dropped the weapon, shaking the balance of the game.
Battle Royale on the subway
The next step reached "Fortnite" the March 13, 2018 with the release of the iOS Version for iPhone and iPad. Epic Games has done a great job here because "Fortnite Mobile" is not a lame playoff of the hit game. The graphics are very detailed for the smartphone requirements, and the app's players can even compete with players on MacOS, Windows and Xbox One.
Soon will be the Android version of the game. Whatever it is, the users of the game will find the game. iOS are excited about the mobile version because the 950,000 largely positive user reviews and mbadive sales of in-app purchases leave no doubt. In the first 30 days alone, "Fortnite Mobile" is playing $ 25 million.
The summit has not yet been reached
And what about "Fortnite"? After the game has conquered PC, console and smartphone, there is huge growth potential, especially in eSport. And the competitive scene is slowly taking off: well-known eSport clans like TeamSoloMid (TSM), the legends community of League of Legends, are recruiting dozens of players for their new "Fortnite" divisions. TSM builds its team around the professional Ali "Myth" Kabbani. And the famous FaZe clan "Call of Duty" and "Counter-Strike" tramples a team around shooting star Dennis "Cloak" Lepore. For this purpose, the Internet giant Tencent wants to inject $ 15 million into Chinese "Fortnite" sports. And the University of Ashland, Ohio, now awards scholarships to Fortnite players.
For "Fortnite" to stay ahead of the players, Epic Games must do one thing above all else: continue as before. Developers need to keep their cool shot with more fashions, new weapons, more buying items, and new challenges. Although there is no date, when the new announced map appears. But that should give another boost to "Fortnite", because then probably also the players are looking at each other again, who have meanwhile turned to other titles.

And then there is always the switch. The new Nintendo console is selling well, and rumors of a "Fortnite" switch port are already making the rounds. The Epic Games presents itself punctually at the E3 games fair (June 12-14 in Los Angeles) – claims at least the user "LeakyPanda", which was often correct. According to switch owners, even with PC and Xbox, a Ring Royale ring player will rise. But also the cooperative mode is badumed with exclusive content on the switch. What is it exactly, "LeakyPanda" does not know. That the famous Nintendo heroes such as Mario, Donkey Kong and Co. are happening, but is quite conceivable. And they are likely to inspire even more players for "Fortnite".
