Tfue weighs in on debate about Fortnite\u2019s new Boom Box item Epic Games has taken some flack from the professional Fortnite community for their new content in recent weeks, and now Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney has given his opinion on the latest addition \u2013 the Boom Box. Many streamers and professional gamers were left unhappy when the Boom Box was added to Fortnite in the V7.10 #2 content patch, just before the WSOE 3 tournament\u2019s first round of six. However, Tfue seems to be looking forward to using it, despite some concerns. \u201cBoom Box baby,\u201d Tenney said, after finding one on Fortnite during a livestream. \u201cThe ultimate forcing people into a gunfight mechanism!\u201d The Boom Box can be stacked in your inventory and, when placed, sends out destructive signals which can break materials and damage players in the surrounding areas \u2013 an ability that some pros think is better than general aim on the game. \u201cPersonally, I\u2019m going to abuse the fuck out of it\u201d Tfue said. \u201cDo I like the thing? Hell no. I think it\u2019s a terrible addition to the game.\u201d A number of competitive gamers and streamers have been discussing Epic\u2019s decision to add Boom Boxes to the game, with Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins, CLG\u2019s WishYaLuckk and competitive player WhosDixon all weighing in with their opinion. \u201cI don\u2019t think Epic realizes what they\u2019re doing to the competitive scene. You\u2019re making everything super unpredictable at this point\u201d WhosDixon tweeted. \u201cAlso adding some insane item last minute, you\u2019re screwing over the players.\u201d One solution, which was put forward by Ali \u2018Myth\u2019 Kabbani, would be for professional Fortnite players to come together and unionize to tackle \u201cplayer treatment and competitive integrity\u201d issues currently surrounding the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
