After what seemed like an eternity, the new Fortnite season has finally dropped and it\u2019s already clear that players are more than eager to join the game as queue times get pretty rough. As with previous seasons, new skins, items, mythics, and other exciting additions have been introduced in the game to shake things up. However, aside from all these shiny new things players can get their hands on in the Battle Royale, Fortnite has also rolled out a particular change that seems to upset some players. As pointed out in the game\u2019s latest update, it\u2019s apparent that players will no longer receive points for surviving without taking damage. This essentially means that the \u201cbush camping\u201d strategy may not be as viable as before, as players are now encouraged to get more involved in fights. For the uninitiated, this strategy involves hiding in a bush, usually using a certain outfit that blends well, and taking out unsuspecting players the whole game. So far, players seem to have split opinions regarding this change. Some players are upset that this would make it harder to reach Unreal, while others rejoice that \u201cit\u2019s over for campers.\u201d It\u2019s hard to get Fortnite content creator BushCampDad out of the picture when it comes to something like this. Being a player who has reached the highest rank solely by bush camping, others quickly mentioned that they felt terrible for him. \u201cBushcampdad in shambles [right now],\u201d mentioned one player in an X post discussing the new changes. \u201cI don\u2019t feel bad about anyone being affected by this that camp religiously except bushcampdad,\u201d mentioned another. BushCampDad himself spoke up about this on X. He wrote, \u201cI\u2019VE BEEN NERFED! Don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ve been cooking up some new strats.\u201d Despite new changes affecting the game, it will be interesting to see how things pan out, considering that the game now has new weapons and even an all-new mythic item that can make players fly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite hits hard on \u201cbush campers\u201d in new Chapter 5 Season 2 update Epic GamesDue to a new change in the latest Chapter 5 Season 2 update, it seems like \u201cbush camping\u201d may no longer be a viable strat.
