Upon its release back in October of 2019, many Fortnite fans heralded Chapter 2 as the savior of a game that was growing stale amid a number of poor development decisions. A great example was the hated MECHs, which drove a large portion of the community away in Season 10. However, despite the initial praise, some argued that Season 1 of Fortnite\u2019s second chapter went on for too long, and did not do enough to keep the game fresh. Despite long being an advocate of Epic\u2019s decision making, it appears Ninja is becoming frustrated with the game that saw him become Twitch\u2019s most-followed streamer. Since the March 10 release of Call of Duty: Warzone, Ninja has been splitting his time between Activision\u2019s brand new battle royale and Epic Games infamous Fortnite. However, on March 26, Blevins grew frustrated with the building BR, and proceeded to explain some of his frustrations. \u201cI\u2019m on 50 f**king ping,\u201d he raged. \u201cI wanna move to CoD right now. Man that\u2019s just not fun. I dunno what it is. Somehow the game [Fortnite] is getting laggier. I\u2019m on East Coast servers dude and I can\u2019t place walls.\u201d He then went on to explain that he wants to play Fortnite, but he is not finding the game enjoyable \u201cin its current state\u201d. He highlighted the game\u2019s solos mode as particularly frustrating in its current build. In a second clip, both he and SypherPK criticized the game for its lack of tangibly new content. Ninja explained that what initially drew players to Fortnite was the regular addition of new content, but this is something that has dried up of late. \u201cI\u2019ve come to the conclusion bro,\u201d Ninja continued. \u201cWe need to bring the old map back.\u201d Despite these statements, he conceded that the likelihood Epic will simply abandon their new map is very low. Ninja summarized his feelings: \u201cI\u2019m bored because there\u2019s nothing new. They added the agency, everything was so fun\u2026 now, everyone knows where they wanna land. 75% of the lobby is dead in the first four minutes and there\u2019s nothing new.\u201d Fortnite\u2019s original map remained in the game for all ten seasons of its first chapter, despite changing significantly in seasonal updates. Both streamers agreed that the return of the original map, using only fan-favorite POIs from Fortnite\u2019s first chapter, would breathe some new life into the game. Only time will tell what decisions Epic take to keep fans engaged.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ninja explains why original map should return to \u2018boring\u2019 Fortnite Epic Games\/Mixer: NinjaMixer and Fortnite star Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins has explained why Epic Games should re-add the original Fortnite map to Chapter 2, as the 28-year-old grew frustrated with the game that launched him into stardom.
