Fortnite Chapter 2 has been going strong since Epic Games shuck up their uber-popular battle royale title on October 15. The new map, limited loot pool, and different mechanics have given fans a relatively fresh game. However, it\u2019s not wholly perfect. Nagging bugs have been popping up following the weekly patches, yet, it\u2019s the new fall damage glitch that is presenting players with problems. The exploit, which was shown off to the mass on November 15 when popular player Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff was left speechless by it, has finally got an explanation behind it. In a post to the Fortnite Competitive subreddit, user MrHindoG showcased a video of how the no fall damage exploit that left players like NICKMERCS stunned actually worked. It all revolves around the huge in-game bushes that pop up around the map. For some reason, they currently aid players in not taking fall damage. Any player who simply travels through one won\u2019t take the damage from the next time that they take a follow-up jump. This means that players who jump while on the ground after walking through a bush will have lost their chance to then take a high dive. Obviously, on the flip side, anyone who waits to jump will still have the ability to not take damage. Now, considering the building aspect of Fortnite, and the fact that some builds can get pretty high up in the sky, it seems as if this problem will present some players with an advantage over their opponents. Of course, it\u2019s unknown if Epic Games are aware of this issue and if they\u2019ll pump a patch out in the near future, but it wouldn\u2019t be surprising to see it hotfixed \u2013 especially if the community speaks out about the bug.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Secret behind Fortnite Chapter 2 no fall damage exploit uncovered One Fortnite fan has revealed the secret to the battle royale\u2019s newest major exploit \u2013 not taking fall damage from any height.
