Fortnite Mending Machine trick keeps players alive when down Epic GamesNeed help staying on your feet in Fortnite? The game\u2019s newest Mending Machine trick lets players make a cheeky exchange to keep themselves alive after being knocked by an enemy squad. Fortnite has made tons of changes to enhance survivability over the years. From adding in a few seconds of thirst protection for downed players to implementing the carry and toss system so that teammates can carry each other to safety, Epic Games is always looking out for the ones who\u2019ve been taken out of fights. The devs have taken it a step further this time around though, allowing crafty players to extend the amount of time left on their ever-draining health bar when they go down. Fortnite\u2019s strange Mending Machine trick is keeping players alive Players can take advantage of this trick by approaching any of the map\u2019s vending machines after they\u2019ve been knocked down. When crawling in front of the machine, the prompt to interact with it will appear and let any downed user exchange gold bars to replenish their health, extending the amount of time before they bleed out. As u\/peppers_ pointed out, this is all part of Fortnite\u2019s new philosophy on what players should be able to do while they\u2019re downed: \u201cYou can use ziplines and open doors too while knocked. Probably open chests too, but I haven\u2019t confirmed that yet.\u201d Another commenter joked that this could make matches more enjoyable for all of the game\u2019s less-skilled players: \u201cGame changer. Considering I spend 90% of the game knocked, I can last a little longer haha.\u201d While this isn\u2019t the biggest change in Chapter 3, it certainly seems to be a popular one amongst the community, with one fan suggesting that these kinds of updates will keep Fortnite on top of the battle royale mountain forever: \u201cLittle updates like this are what make FN more fun than other games. What a weird and delightful thing to add.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
