The release of Chapter 2 brought the biggest wave of changes to Fortnite in the game\u2019s two-year history, including the introduction of a brand new map for the first time ever. Epic Games also considerably reduced the number of different weapons and items available in the game, stripping the loot pool to only what was absolutely necessary. This meant that virtually all mobility options were removed, even Launch Pads, which had been in the game since back in Season 1. Discussing the game\u2019s finer points with Luminosity Gaming streamer SypherPK, Ninja revealed that, as a result of this reset, he was having a lot more fun playing Fortnite in Chapter 2, even without mobility.

However, when a viewer brought that point up in his chat, Ninja and SypherPK maintained that it wasn\u2019t as bad as everyone was making it out to be \u201cGuys, it doesn\u2019t NEED Launch Pads, it doesn\u2019t NEED mobility,\u201d he said. \u201cYou know what\u2019s crazy: making the game fun, without mobility. What that does, in a way, it resets the game,\u201d SypherPK added. \u201cSo now when they add mobility, it\u2019s going to be that fresh feeling like when they first added Launch Pads, or Rift-to-Go\u2019s, and everyone went crazy over those.\u201d (Segment starts at 0:16 mark for mobile users) Ninja believes Epic \u201cneeded to\u201d reset Fortnite Ninja then took the point of mobility being removed to a much broader angle, explaining why Epic\u2019s decision to essentially reset Fortnite at the start of Chapter 2 was the key to making the game be a lot more appealing to play. \u201cThey\u2019re taking their time,\u201d he said. \u201cThey needed to reset the game entirely. Think of how long it took them to add anything in Fortnite when it first came out. At the end of [Chapter 1], look at how crazy it was.\u201d \u201cWhen they came out with Chapter 2, they completely reset it,\u201d he went on. \u201cThey brought it back to square one, very small loot pool. They couldn\u2019t keep adding without making it the stupidest, craziest game ever. Now look, they\u2019ve got a great, great game again.\u201d Ninja has high hopes for Fortnite in 2020 Despite only existing for the final third of the decade, Fortnite will go down as among the best and most popular games of the 2010s, and certainly the most successful. Ninja believes that the game will build on that going into the new year, as it seems Epic Games have found their groove again with Chapter 2. \u201cI\u2019m just so pumped, so pumped,\u201d he said. \u201cThey\u2019re on such a good trajectory right now.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ninja &#038; SypherPK explain why Epic removing mobility in Fortnite isn\u2019t bad Superstar Mixer streamer Ninja and his Twitch counterpart SypherPK aren\u2019t buying into the lack of mobility in Fortnite Chapter 2 being such a bad thing, instead offering an explanation for why Epic Games may have gone down that route.
