Fortnite pro explains why he has been so frustrated since the Mounted Turret was added It\u2019s no secret that professional Fortnite players and streamers alike have been less than impressed with Mounted Turret ever since it was added to the game, and those opinions don\u2019t look like they\u2019re going to change any time soon. One of the players that has been vocal about his feelings is Luminosity Gaming\u2019s Ali \u2018Sypher\u2019PK\u2019 Hassan, who took to Twitter on November 20 to call for it to be removed entirely. \u201cThe fact that the turret was introduced into the game and is still in the game is very insulting and annoying,\u201d he said, seemingly suggesting that the nerfs the developers have introduced so far are nowhere near enough. He went on to explain why he is feeling so frustrated, stating: \u201cUsually very positive and try to provide constructive feedback but the only feedback I can give in this situation is to remove it ASAP.\u201d The fact that the turret was introduced into the game and is still in the game is very insulting and annoying.

The developers also revealed that they would be making yet more changes in the next patch, update v6.31, so it would appear that they are taking feedback on board. SypherPK received some criticism from Reddit users for his use of \u2018insulting\u2019 during his rant, prompting him to explain that he feels it represents the way many community members have been feeling since the Turret was added to the game (something that Epic may have now rectified with the latest hotfix). \u201cI used that word as a way to represent plenty of community feedback ignored given by the community as a whole, not streamers, not pro players,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m not entitled to anything but ideally the community as a whole has some expectations.\u201d Since being added to the game in the v6.30 update on November 14, the Mounted Turret has come under a great deal of criticism from professional streamers and professional players alike, including Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins and Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney. It will be interesting to see how much the by the November 20 nerfs have affected it once players get a chance to adapt to them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
