Fortnite

Watching the latest Fortnite dev stream for OT10 on YouTube. It’s unlisted so due to NDA I won’t share but if you log into the forums you can get to their link. They've made some evil modes since I played last especially this Block Party I'm watching. I like that they're still experimenting though I know it cheeses some folks off.

I think I'm going to get the latest patch and maybe some o' you GWJers wanna play?

Is that not the same one that v you can just go and watch on Twitch? The one with all the holiday decorations?

Hmm. I didn't even consider Twitch. It's unlisted on YouTube and YouTube cautioned me to consider sharing it based on that. I'm sure it's the same one then, called "Operation Block Party".

Muraii posted in another thread that some people may have beta keys to share. I'd be appreciative if someone has a spare they are willing to pass my way.

Ditto. Game looks amazing, would love to give it a shot.

I've got a few invites still I think. PM your emails.

I'm definitely up for some GWJ group play. Installed the game this evening and while I'm not very far yet, I'm really enjoying it so far.

Send me a friend req on the Epic thing!

Cathadan are you still playing? Gosh I need to get that patch downloaded.

I have 4 invites. PM if interested. I haven't played in about a year. Maybe when it's done.

Download complete. Launching now. Looks like I gotta do the tutorial again.

Not since late December, and mostly just for lack of anybody else playing on my friends list. I'm really looking forward to what this game will look like with a bigger population.

I am through the looking glass! I mean the tutorial. I had so much good stuff before the wipe(s). RIP, Dragon Ninja LVL30+.

I'm gonna try to hop on tomorrow night at 22:00 Eastern. Maybe that works for some folks? I'll ping Cathadan and am happy to ping anyone else. There's a Fortnite on the Curse server (just search for "GWJ" in Curse); I'm "muraii_actual" there because internet.

vypre, Cathadan, and I had a blast of fun tonight! Is...is "blast" the unit of fun? It is now.

Please join in if you feel like it. We're still wading through the very early content so it's easy to catch up. Even if that weren't the case, I like playing with people more than getting cheevos, and I don't think I'm alone.

Definitely a had good time - looking forward to the next "Gamers with Jobs who build Forts at Nite" Meet!

How do you find out if you have any invites? I'm trying to get Dr Awkward in and can't seem to find out how to send one. As I'm recently in the game I may not have any invites available. If one of you fine folk could send him one I'm sure it would be appreciated

If nothing has changed in the last 6 months, the invites don't happen in game at all, they live on the Fortnite site after you log in. I forget what the option is called.

Under "Dashboard" when you log into the website.

3 more invites available (PM me your email as that is how they let you send them). When I've logged in, I'm given like 4 options in the middle of the screen and invite is one of them.

New stream!

Assuming the link works I started it at the place the gameplay starts.

Haven't been able to play OT2 but it's looking good. Although for some of the art changes I prefer the way it used to look, especially the constructor BASE. But it looks like the home base buildings are back? You win some, you lose some.

Can't wait to get a computer back to play this game.

Oh snap! I'm so out-of-the-loop for no particular reason I didn't know they were pushing a new OT. I'll have to see how much of a reset they did.

Lol that stream was from March... 2015. My bad. Just forget everything I just wrote XD

I feel so dumb. It was at the top of the videos list and I just went for it. What even am I.

Eager and excited for a great game is what you are!

Hey, a new update!

https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/b...

There's a ton of changes and new stuff in there, most notably: a brand new UI! (everyone's accounts are also reset/refunded again)

I've been looking over my wife's shoulder and, man, the UI has really come along.

Well I'm updated but probably won't get on until Sunday. My boys will be gone for a week so I'm letting them have our bandwidth for the night.

Ooh, today is Sunday! That means today!

Hey y'all. Anyone interested in joining up, we're gonna play some probably around 8:00 or so EDT.

Is this still NDA'd?

Someone was nice enough to invite me awhile back and I did play it, I've just not kept up on whether it's ok to talk about said act of playing the game in any detail.

Yep. Still alpha, still NDA.
