Fortnite is nearing the end of its most recent season, and with that, the community is expecting a variety of balance changes. With these changes, the player base is hopeful that there will be some significant tweaks brought to snipers. This current season saw snipers become a dominant weapon and many Fortnite players believe they are far too powerful to be sustainable. Fortnite players want sniper changes after Season 5 The conversation is happening on the Fortnite subreddit, where a player made a post titled: \u201cI can\u2019t wait for this season to end.\u201d They share a clip of their game, where they seem to get the drop on an enemy and even get quite a few hits on them, but their opponent quickly brings out a sniper rifle and one-shots them. They go on to say, \u201cI hate the fact that I could be a winning a gun fight and someone pulls out a blue sniper and I\u2019m instantly dead.\u201d Many users in the comments agree with the poster, feeling that snipers have made Fortnite almost unplayable. Writes one user, \u201cCompletely ruined the season for me. Almost every game you get 1 tapped after pumping them full of lead. It\u2019s an intended cheat code. I feel that everyone in the matches I play are carrying snipers trying to relive their days in mw2 and it takes all the variety and fun I enjoyed out of the game.\u201d Another player carries this point further, explaining: \u201cIt\u2019s hard not to carry a sniper when the endgame is 99% sniper duels and if you don\u2019t have one it\u2019s hard to get a win.\u201d However, not every fan feels that Fortnite is being plagued with snipers and even points to the original poster\u2019s clip as evidence: \u201cRushing someone with high ground and standing still is not on the season bro. I usually hate comments about skill issue and getting gud and whatnot, but I don\u2019t know what you expect here.\u201d Others feel that a sniper rifle should be powerful and that all it takes is for the devs to add something like a glare to the weapon to help counteract them. As Fortnite continues to evolve and change, there will be plenty of players both complaining about and celebrating the decisions. That\u2019s just the nature of the genre.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite players demand change after snipers \u201cruined\u201d season Epic GamesFortnite players are taking to social media to celebrate the end of Season 5 as they feel the power of sniper rifles ruined the experience.
