Fortnite community divided on how to solve \u201csniper situation\u201d Epic GamesOne Fortnite player thinks the worsening \u201csniper situation\u201d means Epic should vault the weapon type, but others argue that\u2019s too drastic. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 didn\u2019t only bring Greek mythology to the Island. It also invited a massive uptick in sniper rifles available through loot. Following widespread player complaints, developers rolled out changes in late March that vaulted rare and uncommon sniper rifles, so players could only access the epic and legendary snipers. Several days removed from the change and some players still think Fortnite needs to fix its sniper problem because of the sheer volume of epic and legendary rifles available. One Reddit user suggested a drastic solution, writing, \u201c\u2026Fortnite either needs to make the sniper actually reward skill, or just vault it completely.\u201d The Redditor put forth other possible changes, like nerfing the magazine size, decreasing bullet drop, and significantly reducing the weapon\u2019s body damage output. Some Fortnite players agreed that vaulting sniper rifles may be the way to go. \u201cTotally agree. I seem to get snipers more often than ever now,\u201d one person chimed in. Added someone else, \u201cI agree snipers are a bit out of hand and should probably just be vaulted or nerfed\u2026 it ruins the fun of close-up combat and makes it too difficult to fight in the open.\u201d However, the thread is also full of those who think the problem is being overstated. \u201cI think you are overreacting tbh,\u201d commented one Redditor. Someone else said of the OP\u2019s suggested changes, \u201cNo thanks you\u2019re changes sound horrible and would make snipers useless.\u201d Another Fortnite user shared the following thought, \u201cVaulting it completely would annoy a LOT of people. But I like the 1-shot mag idea. A lot of snipers IRL are bolt-action, 1 shot per load.\u201d For now, it\u2019s unclear how Fortnite developers will respond to the sniper-related complaints.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
