Fortnite players convinced Chapter 4 made the game way harder Epic GamesSome longtime Fortnite players think they\u2019ve been dying more following the recent release of Chapter 4 Season 1. The Chapter 4 update launched this past weekend, introducing a new map, a reworked battle pass, and an upgrade to Unreal Engine 5.1. After the literally game-changing Fractured event brought an end to Chapter 3, Fortnite users bore witness to the construction of a previously unseen locale. Interestingly, the latest playable map is marginally smaller than its predecessor, a point some players can\u2019t help but point out when discussing Fortnite\u2019s perceived difficulty spike. Fortnite fans think Chapter 4 Season 1 upped the difficulty Fortnite player SopadeAbacaxi recently posed the following question to the game\u2019s community on Reddit \u2013 \u201c[Are you guys] suddenly dying a LOT more this season or is it just me?\u201d The Redditor claims their squad typically boasts a 60 percent win rate, but Chapter 4 has made it so winning even one game feels like a \u201csurprise.\u201d \u201cIdk what it is, but the game seems harder,\u201d the player added, saying some people now deal more damage with common weapons than they do with rare or epic guns. While many seem to agree with the sentiment that Fortnite\u2019s undergone a difficulty spike, some believe it\u2019s the fault of technical troubles. One Redditor noted that \u201cbugs and lag\u201d have resulted in their death far more times than fights against skilled opponents. Others chimed in to say the lag definitely feels worse now, even on Switch where such issues were already worrisome. In addition, some have attributed to heightened difficulty to Fortnite Chapter 4\u2019s smaller map size and new mobility options. Because of this, \u201cfights are happening a lot faster\u2026 [and] can be hectic at times,\u201d another user added. It would seem the latest version of Fortnite will require an adjustment period for veterans and newcomers alike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
