Gaming Fortnite .

How the bloody hell are you supposed to get kills in locations they never go to, also im on mobile but is there a way to look at my overall stats?
 
Anyone tried the new mode? Absolutely great fun with a squad of mates.
 
@Slevs I don't have a mic as you've probably guessed! I bought a decent headset when I was getting into fortnite but didn't think to buy one with a mic. Can I hook one up somehow while keep using this headset? It'd be so much easier to be able to talk back to you.

I don't think so. You could use the regular ps4 mic and output on tv I guess.

@Redlambs help, you're good with this techy stuff
 
I spent like £100 on this headset though! It's great for placing footsteps around me, which direction fire is coming from, etc.

I've no problem keeping it like this. Our moves were coordinated and we seemed to understand each other most of the time.
 
Yea let's go again. It'd just be handy for the future but I'll look into it another time. In the meantime you call the shots on which direction to head in and whatnot.

I'm not 100% sure, but it might be possible with a 2 to 1 jack converter, plug the headset into one and a mic into the other. Failing that, I'm pretty sure there's a way the PS4 camera works as a mic even when you have a headset connected.


Oh and sorry for missing the invite the other day, I was in the middle of a pretty intense save the world level. We'll have to play soon though!
 
i feel like im the only one who sucks at this game. even my nephews are getting solo wins at age 11

These are myths. Those 2 in 1s never work.

@Sied I think you shot yourself in the foot with that headset. The lack of a mic will make it really difficult to be able to communicate. You could try getting the 3.5mm dual port but they're so god damn shit and frustrating to use.

Damn :( Thanks anyway.
 
Surprised we haven't got a lot of Cafe players on this compared to Fifa, Destiny and Rocket League when they were blowing up

If anyone is up for games on PS4, Xbox One or Switch (i'm shit on the switch though), let me know

ILocka - Xbox
ILockyy - PS4
 
Anyone else think Builder Pro should be the default setting? Its actually easier than the original building controls - less button pressing for a start and prevents panic building/rotating through the stupid cone thing.

Yes it's miles better, was a genuine gamechanger for me

No PC?


On if anyone fancies a few games.

I'll be about tomorrow mate, hit me up if you are on and see me. The only time I can't respond is if I'm in the final stages of a Save the World mission ;)

I don't have a gaming pc/laptop mate

Infact I only have a work laptop these days. Happy to crossplay though, but I think you have a PS4 right?

Yeah, I play on PC, PS4 and Switch. Though to be honest, cross play works wonders with console/PC/mobile players, you'll get a serious kick out of killing PC players ;)

As much as certain aspects of the game are going backwards, they've made it so console players can truly compete with PC ones so for that I'm impressed. Although auto-aim is ridiculously strong (especially current smg meta), it's more the way they keep adjusting the building aspect that makes it a more fair fight in general. Plus it's great practice for console play, it pushes you to use movement and building more than the usual console only lobby would.
 
To be honest, auto aim may seem strong to someone who plays a lot of PC, but it's probably the weakest going compared to most console shooters.

Games like COD drag your cursor onto enemy players if you aim around them. With Fortnite I feel like I have to be really accurate, and still end up shooting just off someones body plenty.

That's a good thing, not a bad one. Shooting feels responsive and genuine, rather than about purely reacting like Cod

Nah, it's a combination of the auto aim and tightening bloom on it, it's genuinely really strong. For example, if you played it back in Season 3 with the tac smg you'll have noticed that only console players used that weapon as it was far tighter, giving it a genuine level ground (and rightly so IMO) with PC players and the one pump. I play both PC and Console and I can tell you it bridges the gap, it does it well though as it gives a controller a fighting chance. With COD, the auto snap is stronger, but the movement overall lacks massively and the recoil/spread (they don't use bloom in the same way) is not altered hence why PC wins outright every time. Plus, no scoping ;)

This is why I play both console and PC, because both offer something different but also great. In fact, I often prefer console play just because it's made me a better builder by having to think about what I'm doing. And as silly as it might sound, all those keybinds on PC (and the fact I'm constantly changing them to try to get comfortable) is a pain in the arse. I like being able to pick up a controller and just knowing what's what.
 
You know you've been playing too much when you've completed all the battle pass challenges, and the daily challenges is blank too :nervous:
 
:lol:

Don't worry, come Wednesday they'll make a stupid change and you'll start gradually losing interest!

Yeah I have no doubt :lol:

I've had a lot of spare time in the last week and I'm at a point now where I'm fairly competitive, so I won't need to play as much to catch up from now on.
 
Probably yest another stupid question, but sometimes when im trying to build, it wont let me, also it comes up with something like 140hp, it just wont let me place the wall, any ideas?
 
Is anyone in this forum used to playing on PC?

If so I'm definitely game for playing a few games with different Caf members with mic or no mic.

If so add davSFN through in game and drop me an invite when I'm on.

You could try using ModMic or the boompro mic. One is modular and the other can be plugged directly in some headsets so it depends on what you already got.

Sounds like you’re trying to edit / repair the wall you’ve already placed. If you hold the builder button it goes into an edit mode.

Dont think its that bud, sometimes it happens when its the first piece im trying to build, perhaps its a glitch.
