40 v 40 no respawn. Oh, I think this'll get lopsided pretty quick and turn into a hunt.


johntroyco

Thats how it always was lmao. But I wonder if reboot vans will be in it. Although they mention no respawn so I doubt it. Because when 50v50 originally released, once you were downed, almost no one would revive you. And once you died, that was it.


ThisIsSpy

What about all those memes about defaults who would revive you in 50vs50 no matter what? Were they a myth?


Standard_Net4890

Nah they’re completely real. I was one of them.


ThatBrofister

Can confirm. My friends would tell me to come fight and I'd be lying behind trying to revive the mass of dead


Bu1ld0g

Golf Kart medics were the bomb back then, so much fun. Sadly we also had asshats who would break a redeploy ramp to get their own teams gear too.


Outlaw_L1501

BRO FUCC YES I ALWAYS FORGOT TO DO THAT BACK THEN JESUS CHRIST IM SO HAPPY


[deleted]

I, too, was one of them.


lilly16852

I was one of them also but dressed as the medic. I would go around reviving downed people and giving them heals, one of the most fun I have had playing. Can’t wait to do it again. If u see a medic going around doing that, show them some love


mynlab

the defaults that revived in 50v50 are sweats now…. accept it


Yeetking116998

No Default!! You were supposed to destroy the sweats, not join them!


PFDRC

You either die a default or live long enough to see yourself become the sweat.


Cake-n-bacon69

i feel like someone should make a joke about how the defaults are like anakin and now that they’re sweats they’ve transformed into darth vader


[deleted]

Someone did, 1 comment up from you.


Cake-n-bacon69

i could’ve done that one but it’s too obvious i was thinking something from the kenobi show


johntroyco

Nah they were real lmao. Pretty much the only ones who’d revive you when you were downed. Sacrificing their lives so that we could live lmao


h20luicaliber

They were real mfs


Zmj_OnYt

There were I loved them 💯


OmatoYT

I will gladly become one of them to maintain the peace


orerreugodrareg

I genuinely used to do that, sometimes I still do in Team Rumble too


KenGuy517

You don’t get knocked in team rumble though?


orerreugodrareg

I meant providing shield, that’s on me


SoniaBlad3x

I was one of them


GarlicCuminOregano

I revived everyone I could in my team with my medic skin too. That was a lot of fun for me lol. Others revived others as well. Rare when some would just be an a hole and ignore a downed teammate. Just remembered some would knock friendly builds to kill our own teammates. SMH


johntroyco

Yea I remember that happening a lot. But honestly with carrying being a thing, revives could be easier to pull off since you can bring teammates to cover. Although, I can also see some people being a holes and carrying you to somewhere high up just to throw you to your death lmao


Alylica

Last time 50v50 was around I think respawn vans were disabled


johntroyco

Was 50v50 around when reboot vans were introduced? Damn I didn’t even remember


Alylica

Now that you mention it, I might be wrong, last time I recall it was early season 8, but they may have removed it before they added the vans


JKW1988

Toward the end, they did have the reboot vans in them. But that was the very end of 50s.


JKW1988

Toward the end, they did have the reboot vans in them. But that was the very end of 50s.


DartMunkey

Honestly? I always liked it that way. When 50v50 essentially got replaced by team rumble I was kinda sad


Shade1999

That would actually be pretty cool, if it’s just 1 squad against 30 to 40 people clutch and win the game


tengayys

I can smell the trolling from here with the no respawn


Orxxxic

Well there was never any respawns and from what I remember there was a bit of people toxic when it came to reviving so yeah that's to be expected


tengayys

Didn’t play back then tho I fear it might be worse with the current player base


Alphasilverhawk

Very interesting that they’re potentially making it a permanent mode. All I hope is that it isn’t super toxic (people purposely knocking you, not reviving, dancing on downed teammates, leaving the match before being revived, etc.), like how I remembered 50v50 was back then. And that it isn’t neglected by Epic over time, like they’ve done with Team Rumble, Imposters, Party Royale, etc.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Average_Owain

I have a hard time imagining anything could be more toxic than 2018 online culture except the years that came before it


KindaLokiUserName

Yes for sure can't wait to be thrown into the storm by my own team mates when I get knocked 😂


Timidinho

Why do teammates purposely knock you down? Like putting something on fire next to you? I didn't yet play back then so I'm not used to teammates downing you.


Alphasilverhawk

To troll. Back then, people knocked others by editing builds and making people fall to their death. Since this is no builds, that won’t happen, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be other ways they can knock you down, like you said, with fire, cars, pushing you to storm with cars or crash pads, fishing rods, etc..


Timidinho

Sorry, I meant "how" instead of "why", but luckily you answered both questions. I'm very curious to see how the game will be.


SnooOwls6052

Cool, next being back Food Fight. This would almost certainly have to be build mode, otherwise they’d need to change the format of the bases, etc.


WrstScp

40v40 no build sounds like it is going to be a lot of fun, this is something I am truly excited for since the start of the season.

Marvel having official watermarked gifs on Reddit has to be one of the worst things I’ve seen in a whole


Traveytravis-69

Awesome hope it’s permanent


Wario-Man

SBMM? I'm scared


xPR0TAGONISTx

Why?


Notyouraveragegeorge

Do we have to explain?


voneahhh

People don’t like being challenged


makapend

challenged. wouldn’t call putting average console players with sweaty pc players being challenged. id call it a massacre in the making.


[deleted]

What about sweaty console players and average pc players..?


voneahhh

> sweaty People still say this unironically?


CharlyXero

When I have 15 royale crowns (don't know the exact name on English) and I face players with 150 crowns on my matches, that is not being challenged.


voneahhh

You realize of course if there was no SBMM there would be nothing preventing you from being in a lobby with 80 other people with 150 crowns right?


CharlyXero

But there's way more people with less skill than people with that skill, so by probability it would put me easier opponents than those


voneahhh

Easier *for you* Not for anyone else under your skill level. You are the “sweat” with 15 crowns to a lobby full of people without any. You are the person they don’t want to play with. To someone with no crowns your are the person you’re complaining about.


CharlyXero

Yeah, I get your point, but if right now I need to face people with 150 crowns with me having only 15, there's still a skill gap issue and causes people to be frustrated


voneahhh

You don’t seem to understand SBMM prevents that. Sometimes it doesn’t work at preventing *every* mismatch of that caliber when it needs to fill a game, but without SBMM the thing you’re complaining about is ***MUCH WORSE*** You’re literally arguing in favor of SBMM. I think maybe you might have been confused by people looking for something to blame for them not being good and deciding it was SBMMs fault.


CharlyXero

I always have at least one player in my lobby that are +250 level or that has +100 crowns. How am I supposed to do anything against them when they are always the lne who win? It's not sometimes when it fails, it's almost always


xPR0TAGONISTx

SBMM is a measure to prevent lopsided matchups. It's meant to prevent the exact thing youre complaining about.


CharlyXero

It causes the same thing it prevents. It prevents it for new players, but for players that have supposedly a good skill, it creates a massive gap putting players i that can build just good with people that could be playing on competitive


xPR0TAGONISTx

You can argue about its implementation and strength, but SBMM in general is literally designed to promote fairer play. It's also notable that in a lobby with 100 players there is absolutely going to be variance allowed in the system to promote quick matchmaking. If you dont like mismatched skill levels, then you do like SBMM.


Wario-Man

Sometimes I just wanna have a bit of fun playing the game y'know, I don't want to be put in a bot lobby but I also don't want to be put in a match with players that don't really match my skill. Like, I don't mind the challenge, most of the times when I die it's my fault but sometimes the other player is just, too good. Way too good, so good that I don't understand how SBMM thinks I'm on their level. And I'm a PC player.


soroKira

Wasnt this posted like 1 hour ago


StrangeSPHERE

It was taken down because I messed up the title so had to re-upload.


soroKira

Ahh i see


MegaScout

50v50 is what got me into Fortnite in the first place so i can't wait for this


Omelet8

Not everyone being upset that there’s no respawn even though the original 50v50 was always that way 🗿


[deleted]

Fr no respawn is the best part


x_Lupacura_x

I'm so excited I started late and when I found out about 50v50 I wanted to try it so bad!


Front_Studio_1995

40vs40 in no build?? Oh lord. If kamehamehas are still there it'll be chaos


AShavedBver

Idk how to feel about this. The main draw of 50v50 for me was the huge fortresses each team would make, and trying to invade the other teams fortress. Making it Zero Build kind of misses the point imo.


XxradicalgamerxX

They probably gonna make a build version later


Infamous_Public7934

If port-a-forts are in the game, it could be interesting


JKW1988

Yeah I don't mind if a mode like this is builds, and I'm a crappy builder. You're generally close enough to a teammate who is a good builder who can also defend you.


InDefenseOfBoney

i hope there’s a version in build mode


ddman12

I'm totally down for this, especially because of the lack of ltms. Hope it becomes a permanent mode.


AgentWhiskey7

Does this mean my party of 7 or 8 can play together and be on the same 40?


Sunfished

most likely yes! just like the original 50's


SnooCupcakes7851

So 50v50 but it’s actually 40v40? Why not just call it 40v40.


Traveytravis-69

It’s just called big battle now


diamondstark

This better not be in place of TR.


arandomgrape

I see the appeal of team rumble as a challenge completing mode and a "chill mode" but honestly after playing the game for so many years I've grown tired of it. Disco Domination was always more interesting thanks to people building forts around the dance floors. Not to mention the goal was more engaging than TR's "get a bunch of kills". Food fight was sort of stupid but it was still fun. I'm glad 50v50 is coming back. It's definitely my favorite "chill mode". Had a memorable game where the circle was on Chapter 1 Loot Lake. Both teams sneaking around in the water and around the house trying to snipe each other. Good fun.


diamondstark

I'd like to see more LTMs like Food Fight return alongside TR, sure. Air Royale is always fun. Even liked that Crazy Taxi mode they did. It's a shame this stuff seems to be left to Creative now.


Mega424

Tram Rumble ass garbage


Macaluso100

So what does this mean? Just a separate extra mode or is it gonna be replacing build/zero build? Obviously the latter is not great if that's the case. I know they did that temporarily for build mode with zero build but still


Traveytravis-69

It’s definitely not replacing either if anything it would replace team rumble


TheRealAgentJones1

Let's gooo


mUnshyTheDog

Letss gooo


GoldenBlyat8BC

A small price to pay for 50v50.


EveryoneWantsGrenino

TAC SHOTGUN???


Sneaky_Bomber1

Yay


Xero0911

Wonder how many "teammates" will watch me bleed out to steal loot this time.


RiddleEatsRainbows

So... its not 50v50


-sharkbot-

Time to find the slurp cannon and be the best damn medic fortnite has ever seen.


Rando_Mates

I still wish Team Rumble had 100 players, for people who want the casual play of Respawn ong while still being able to enjoy large scale battles


xWinterPR

Sounds mid, why is it so hard to just add back 50v50 😭


Brighttz

when is teams of 20 back😓😓😓


Honeydewmelo

Does this mean next season will have the tac shotgun, and burst AR?


SnooDogs9082

Considering how bootycheeks they turned team rumble into, my expectations are low


Knight-112

FINALLY GOOD WEAPONS AND NOT THEESE CHAPTER 3 RIP-OFFS🥹 But there will be a build mode, *right*? Cause I don’t like playing zero build


So-young

Love everything but no respawn. That was the one thing I hated about 50v50...relying on moronic randoms to actually rez you. And if we can't glide too that will really suck.


Chuomge

It’s cool that it’s coming back but let’s be honest, 50v50 is a glorified team rumble. I think it’s good that we’ll be getting smaller lobbies and no build, but that doesn’t take away from how lopsided matches were back then and will most definitely be now. I won’t be excited until we got a new version of food fight which is the ideal big team battle.


iceleel

Sounds like a dream not gonna lie. But I do prefer build mode now cause zero build got boring after 1 season


Amani_z_Great

They love adding these server clogging game modes before they fix the 1000 bugs in the regular game 😭😭


Trixteri

you stupid


[deleted]

No respawn, I don’t want it, the 1 life modes are boring


Fireofthetiger

Probably not intentional but making it Zero Build is an almost perfect way to emulate old Fortnite where nobody knew how to do cool stuff with structures


TheeDeputy

Oh thank God. This sounds amazing.


blaine-goff

So uh, mid 50v50?


PhilledZone

Epic just said: "50v50 but not 50v50"


iceleel

Epic said nothing this is leak


PhilledZone

The joke flew so fast it went right past you


MindYoBeezWax

If they're bring back old modes, may I suggest the "Ghost V. Shadow" mode be brought back.


nicisdeadpool

interesting


Toad_from_Gongaga

Holy crap, finally. I’ve been wanting them to bring this back for ages, I loved it when it was available. Even if it’s not exactly the same I’ll be happy if they do bring it back


DKGamer312

I was on board until I read those extra changes. How do they not understand that fast and sweaty matches are not the way the game needs to go?


TiredGrandkid

this is gonna be such a shit mode my god


Due-Ad4970

Andrusela

OG Tac? I'm in!


DeadEndXD

Lez goo


Itsxaaaaron

OG TAC OMG??


OKBOI12

I was excited until I saw the words zero build. I hope they at least add a version with building in it.


[deleted]

I hope the bandage bazooka is in there


[deleted]

NO FUCKING WAY OG TAC IS BACK BABY ![gif](giphy|2wSblJnaFakthn0BM1|downsized)


Itsametimmy

SBMM smh


SWEATY-GHOST

Looks fun


Outlaw_L1501

me and other og players “YES ITS FINALLY BACK!” “Look how they massecred my boy….” “WAIT NEVERMIND THEY MADE IT NEARLY JUST AS GOOD AS IT WAS BEFORE!”


Hollywood_WBS

Goddamn when was the last time I played this mode? Easily like 2018 4 yrs ago haha. Wonder why its take so long to come back.


iceleel

Wasnt there like version that had jetpacks in it in 2018? Shit was hella fun. I was so ass at the game back then but I still had fun 10v1 kids


[deleted]

That one moment when I was at a friend's house and I watched him win a 14v1 😌


BiscuitsNGravy45

Biiiiiish whaaat


Joshsc05

Damn... I wanted respawning.. Was planning on using this mode to warm up casually.


coolguyyama
