Fortnite players claim weapon mods only made the game worse Epic GamesFortnite players want to see hitscan return to the game, but that may not be possible in Chapter 5 thanks to weapon mods. Players are hoping for the return of hitscan weapons, which would allow bullets to hit their target directly instead of projectiles that cater toward more precise aiming. However, with the introduction of weapon mods, hitscan is no longer effective. Although Fortnite tried to bring back hitscan through different weapons, like Twin-Mag AR and the MK7, it showed that weapon mods with hitscan are not currently viable in the meta. But that does not stop players from chasing the elusive dream of having the mechanic back in the game. \u201cI feel like projectile should only be for snipers. The way Fortnite\u2019s gunplay is doesn\u2019t fit for it all to be projectile. Bloom when not having a scope, is horrible, especially when you\u2019re fighting at a distance. Maybe it\u2019s just me, considering I\u2019ve been used to Fortnite for years, but right now, it feels like Warzone but worse.\u201d said one Reddit user. Another player pointed out that Fortnite seems to change the damage systems each season, which could mean another chance for hitscan in future seasons. Others within the Reddit thread agreed with the sentiment that hitscan was better than the current weapon mod situation. Some even went as far as to say that the current weapon mod meta \u201csucks\u201d with hope for change in the future. \u201cWeapon modding sucks anyways. If rng for purple and gold items were low you also have to get lucky for a good scope (or even a scope). Getting a thermal or no scope is just something I have to drop, which sucks, tbh. Modding exists, but holy, is it hard to push something where I can mod.\u201d stated another user. It\u2019s clear that the Fortnite community is passionate about the current weapon modding system and its effect on gameplay. However, no rumored changes are coming that would bring back the old hitscan system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
