Fortnite launched a new Reload mode with update 30.20, where players can once again drop on the OG Chapter 1 map for fast-paced rounds consisting of 40 players. What caught the community\u2019s attention is that you can respawn as long as a teammate in your squad is alive throughout the match. The mode quickly surpassed Battle Royale in terms of concurrent users, amassing over 1 million active players within the first hour of its launch. Such success was also thanks to the return of weapons from past seasons that Fortnite players haven\u2019t seen in a long time. Several players who were hit with nostalgia for Season OG and Chapter 1 while playing Reload insisted that the mode\u2019s weapons were \u201cbetter balanced\u201d than the ongoing season\u2019s loot pool. This discourse stems from issues players raised in past weeks regarding the overpowered Nitro Cars and weapon balancing in the new Wrecked season. Because of the feedback, Epic has nerfed and buffed several gameplay elements in Battle Royale. However, with the launch of the Reload mode, players prefer OG weapons without any weapon mods. One such player commented on social media, \u201cFortnite Reload weapons feel so much more accurate than normal modes.\u201d Another chimed in, \u201cNo bullet drop-off really makes the game feel a lot better.\u201d A third user wrote, \u201cHit scan and no bullet drop. They really need to bring that back to the main BR. Fortnite is anything but a realistic game so I don\u2019t know why they are introducing these elements just for the sake of it.\u201d While Epic is pushing the envelope each season with more realistic graphics and innovative weapons, Fortnite players prefer the classic charm of OG weapons they started playing the game with years ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite players insist Reload mode weapons are \u201cbetter balanced\u201d than Season 3\u2019s Battle Royale Epic GamesFortnite Reload\u2019s weapon balancing is being praised by players who are fed up with the loot pool in Chapter 5 Season 3 Battle Royale.
