Epic has added tons of new weapons, items, map changes, major collaborations, skins, lore, and seasonal events during Chapter 5. However, an increasing amount of players have still found it becoming stale. One player summed it up in a post titled: \u201cI\u2019m just getting a little tired of it is all,\u201d which was presented with their view on how each Fortnite season carries out the same cycle. It centered around the idea that every season gets to a point where it feels \u201cstale and boring.\u201d Then, after Epic unleashes a brand-new weapon or item to shake up the meta, certain players or pros complain and it ultimately ends up with it getting nerfed, as the endless loop starts again. The poster highlighted the Nitro Fists weapon as an example of something they believed had fallen victim to community complaints. This launched with Chapter 5 Season 3, but was nerfed in a further mid-season patch update on May 30 to increase the recharge time. One player said, \u201cI don\u2019t understand the nerf on the fists. Why didn\u2019t they just lessen the damage to players instead,\u201d leading another to add, \u201cThe Fortnite community is just awful.\u201d Other players suggested more dramatic solutions, with one saying, \u201cOh how easy it would be to please both types of players. If only this billion-dollar company could make two types of Battle Royales and give items in each mode different stats and abilities.\u201d That prompted a user to reply, \u201cYep. Not only that, but this OP on release then nerf over time is what they\u2019ve done for 7 years. It\u2019s not \u2018the sweats\u2019 fault, it\u2019s Epic doing what they think maximizes profit.\u201d The Nitro cars were also struck with several nerfs, which has proved divisive among Fortnite players. Many felt the nerfs had ruined the experience, with one saying \u201cThey nerfed the cars into the absolute ground. Mythic car health is a joke.\u201d Meanwhile, others flooded in to disagree, claiming \u201cThe cars are still as fun as they were before just less tankey.\u201d This is not the first time the Fortnite community has been in uproar over weapons and items in the game being introduced and then suddenly nerfed. However, more players are becoming frustrated after seeing the pattern repeat itself during every new season in Chapter 5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite players tired of Chapter 5 following the same \u201cboring\u201d cycle Epic GamesThe Fortnite community has grown tired of every Season in Chapter 5 following the same patterns, despite Epic\u2019s efforts to constantly shake the Battle Royale up with heaps of new content.
