Ninja explains why Epic stopped releasing Fortnite Chapter 2 patch notes Superstar streamer Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins has an interesting theory for why Epic Games have stopped releasing patch notes for their weekly updates in Fortnite Chapter 2. As weeks continue to fly by in Season 1 of Fortnite Chapter 2, it\u2019s looking more and more like patch notes have become a thing of the past for developers Epic Games. Although the official Fortnite Trello page has contained some information on bug fixes and things like that, the bigger and more impactful changes have been left for players to figure out for themselves, such as weapon adjustments, new additions, and more. Many have been trying to figure out why patch notes have stopped getting released, one of them being Ninja, who shared his theory during one of his recent streams. The Mixer star believes that at least part of the reason why is because Epic don\u2019t want to frustrate players and stop some from playing purely because of something that they include in the patch notes, which he contends was the case before Chapter 2. \u201cOne thing that 100% I guarantee did happen, when all the patch notes were being released back in the day, incredibly in-depth patch notes, is that people saw the patch notes, and if they didn\u2019t like something, they didn\u2019t want to play,\u201d Ninja explained. \u201c\u2018Oh my god man, what? They nerfed the Pump? I\u2019m not even going to play!’\u201d he mocked. \u201cWell, you don\u2019t know if they nerfed the Pump because there\u2019s no patch notes, so get in there and find out if they did or not. Play the game.\u201d (Video begins at 1:05 mark for mobile users) Why haven\u2019t Epic been releasing patch notes in Fortnite? Whether or not Ninja\u2019s theory is correct, it certainly does make sense, since there\u2019s no doubt that Epic received a lot of negative backlash after every patch notes release, especially during the latter seasons of Chapter 1. Whatever the reason is, Epic have simply decided that it\u2019s best for players to figure out all of the changes on their own, even when it comes to major things like the addition of the Harpoon Gun several weeks ago. That is not to say, however, that this will be a permanent thing in Chapter 2. With Season 2 looming around the corner, only time will tell whether or not Epic will revert to releasing the full details for each weekly update.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
