- This is MASSIVE for the gaming Industry, Epic Games have revealed Unreal Editor for Fortnite and the possibilities are endless. Let's take a look. Leave a LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching.
Only players know what players want and this is exactly what make a game stay relevant.
Players will always optimize the fun out of a game, that's why devs are here to save us from ourselves.
@@l0rdfr3nchy7 well said but going by the first ~45mins of comments people are just gonna be falling over each other in a mad dash to see who can praise this the hardest, the amount of comments from people about to break trough by making their own COD clone is crazy 🤣
Just here to say I was the 420th like - carry on
And that's also why it's so damn hard being a developer
@@l0rdfr3nchy7(X) Doubt. It’s the developers ruining the fun, nowadays.
DICE: Damn that's a good idea. We should make some type of portal where our community can do the same with BF. Imagine how popular it would be.
🤣
Funny part is you could make battlefield in this
@@ChanthologyInc nah, there's no way to introduce that many bugs in UE5 and Fortnite
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@dumbodum Daaaaaaamn 🤣
The future of gaming is gonna be lit.
Not for the consumers
we are still in a gaming drought.
@@ZeroCalamityYT tf you talking about ? Theres more games than ever lol
@@kriskater "Feel Good" gaming drought.
@@HazemMaddouri what kinda feel good games ? Give me some examples:)
Now you don't just build things in the game, you can build the game itself. Talk about taking a theme to its conceptual limit. Awesome stuff.
Comment gave me the chills
you know, i have to give it to epic games. they are very creative. battle pass, live events, creative mode, and now this
@@willmcclard206 minecraft has creative mode >:(
... this is not a new concept
Literally what Bungie did for Halo 3 and Halo Reach for console. This is something most players want. A playground for them to make their own games. Yet, with this level of detail, this is truly remarkable. Definitely game changing if it's what I'm looking at.
This is the sort of functionality and potential that I expected BF2042 to achieve with Portal.
Well this is competing with Roblox because it's kinda exactly like this
If you actually expected stuff like this from DICE and Frostbite engine... I don't even know what to say.
Hopefully Halo Infinite Forge can stack up well
then you had absolutely no clue what portal as ever meant to be lmao. It was never meant to make unique experiences/entire games. at all. just games modes.
my guy expected to be making dirt bike games in a BF game mode editor.
@@DG_427 I expected tomato sauce with my Spaghetti code with Frostbite.
Too bad everyone is still making copy & paste box fights and red vs. blue 🙄
This isn't unusual for Epic, though. I'm an older gamer and remember Unreal Tournament 2004 releasing with the dev tools on the disc. People were creating full conversion mods for that game. A lot of them were really fun. Some even released as standalone titles later on.
I remember dragging my rig and monitor over to my friends apartment with a few other friends and just playing UT2004 mods all weekend. Epic understands that supporting the mod community can keep their game relevant for years because they've done it before.
well said
Best times of my life as a kid were pushing that game to its limits
Hopefully someone makes UT for fortnight
@@abramjessiah I don't imagine it will take long, honestly.
Oh the good ol days ... Awesome to see the return of modding in a fancy new light as well.
I always avoided fortnite for being too childish but now I am playing it with my kids I am quite impressed. They have a level of polish you just don't get from other games. Constantly keeping it fresh and seem to care about and listen to playerbase.. Crazy concept!
It's a good game. I personally don't like the building aspect but it definitely takes skill. Also, it's sort of predatory on children with it's monetization but that's up to the parents to deal with. My niece's kid got her to buy him so much unnecessary stuff for a free game that he's too cool to play now haha. But, I guess he got a lot of enjoyment out of it at the time.
@@Dethmeister yeah I have spent too much on v-bucks but it's harmless and up to parents.
I only play no build with my kids I don't fancy shooting people who turn into houses once shot at.
I started playing no build but after a while I started to see the potential for that extra layer of reactionary based skill. It definitely made for some tense moments. Both modes are fun.
I think the only thing it's really missing is a first person mode and an import for custom player models and weapon skins. I really hope they let this go to the extent that Roblox does where you can change or create basically anything, even UI changes or entirely new character animations.
Even though I absolutely hate the fortnite community, the gameplay and graphics are both amazing.
I appreciate almost everything for Epic games and their devs to take Fortnite to the next level.
10 months on and 99.9% of the players are still playing the same maps a 5 year old could have made. What a waste 💩
This is how things used to be back in the hey day of PC gaming. Back then devs released mod tools which is similar to this. There were loads of great mods around that the community made. Kudos to EPIC
Yep. It's funny how people are excited about this, but this was common back in the days of Jedi Knight, Quake II, and Doom. In fact, that's how we got Team Fortress -- out of a Half-Life mod. It's also how we got Dota... out of a Warcraft III mod.
It is kind of crazy that peak console gaming is just normal PC mod gaming from 20 years ago
Let him cook🔥
@@billywashere6965 So what’s funny about being excited about this? You said yourself mod tools similar to what we have here is what game is the OG team fortress, so it seems to be pretty logical to be excited.
@@connorbranscombe6819 its funny because people act like this is new and fortnite made a breakthrough but thats only because they are too young to remember the other times its been done - hell even Bethesda have done this with their "creation kit"
It feels weird to see fortnite like this
Ikr
Like Jack said....a new era has begun!!
It feels weird to see fortnite period
It doesn't feel like a kid's game anymore
@@dawson1787 🇨🇦
Wow. I'm seriously impressed. Have never been a fan of Fortnite and it's community but this is really interesting. Hope this matures the community and enables people to be creative and build their own concepts that get to last
Same. I am intrigued
and that thing plus the Injector that permit to transform UE5 game into full 6DoF VR compatible, we have the oasis of ready player one
Ok this is absolutely insane.
for kids yes
Lol, never heard of Roblox?
That’s what I was thinking mate. That last game was wild
@@Spectru91 oh yeah and what's for adults?
@@eonmind932 cs ,call of duty....especially cs..that's a real man's game
Love Fortnite or hate it, you can't deny Epic does a fantastic job of keeping a game relevant, updated and finds new ways such as this to expand the experience to even more players. I commend that. I don't play near as much as I used to and I made tons of memories with friends on it. I am however glad to see it's still going strong and the community is enjoying it, and now - even more with the new oppurtunities and ideas that can develop out of this
Yeah, i'm never installing fortnite or the epic launcher, but i do recognize the beauty of what they've done
If it weren’t for epic I believe that cross play wouldn’t have been a thing.
It’s just a map editor. This was standard 20 years ago.
People made first person shooters in Warcraft 3 with the map editor.
tower defenses
Murder at the mansion _(among us)_
Dota
It seems like everyone in the game industry never played video games.
@@-John-Doe- seems like a whole lot more than just a map editor... did you watch the video?
@@-John-Doe- id expect nothing less of john doe
As a game developer, this is absolutely insane. It really is pretty awesome, might be one of the best User Created Content experiences right now.
I mean that is what Unreal is for. >.>
You now can compete with millions of developers instead of thousands. You do realize this saturates the market and you will be left with 40 cents on the dollar.
@@jakedubs this is Fortnite specific, but the market is saturated already with the streamlined game engines such as Unity and Unreal. This just allows people to focus more on their creativity.
red vs blue
The thing is.. the gaming industry used to be like this... but then companies turned into a bunch of greedy pricks..
Good to see Epic sticking to it's roots and being what all developers should be
don't let this make you think epic aren't greedy fucks.
Epic IS the company that turned everything into a bunch of greedy pricks ...
Epic killed the Unreal franchise. How is that sticking to your roots?
Don't be naive and think this is them turning innocent
The only reason it stayed like that is because gamers have supported it
I've been saying forever that user creation features are the best thing for this era of live service games. Fortnite and Halo seem to have the right idea
Halo ? How so ?
back in the halo 3 days and all, yeah sure, but right now it's pretty dead (unfortunately)
@FLAM halo finally releasing forge and other community features have atleast made Halo Infinite stable instead of dead. And older Halo games having them at launch (3 and reach) are why those games had legs for years
the fact halo 3 and reach had better creative tools then their sequels says a lot tho:
Nah Halo is dead
6 months later, no it wasn't.
Exactly lol, creators dont care about all of these technologies when they can make the same money with less effort, like making tycoon games. Nobody nowadays uses these the way epic showed in the 3 featured maps
On the contrary, Epic at least clarified that it would take at least 2 years until they could truly flesh out the software to make full scale games.
Holy crap this is actually awesome. I wasn't a huge fan of Epic Games, but someone there gets it. Often the life length of a game depends on how effective the modding tools are. I'm glad more people are recognizing that the best way to make something gamers want, is to let the gamers make it themselves.
have you never played roblox lol
@@atomoasisey maybe he did. Just Fortnite has UE5 which is much better than Roblox studio engine.
@@klock_tax3150 also epic will pay developers 40% whereas Roblox pays half of that
@@nerdyworld938 They will pay "up to" not 40% and this number will surely be weighted based on map popularity. This monetization side of things is also what will kill all the fun out of gaming. No one is making a living off of making roblox games.
@@corail53 that’s true
For the first time ever, I'm seriously considering downloading and trying out Fortnite. This is impressive.
Same
Yeah, it's just the whole running and shooting while jumping that's keeping me off
@@XxCaptainCrashxX why lol that’s how every game is
Bruh I can’t believe people like you exist that have never played it 🤣
@@kennypowers1945 not cod
UE5 breaks every limit of what developer can make. I'm excited for this and what the devs can come up with.
not a fan of fortnite, but it has always amazed me what they do for their community to keep it alive and well.
same, I've never liked Fortnite but with this new system? people could create a game within Fortnite that I like lmao its crazy
I'm so thankful to be alive and in my late 20s to experience all the amazing tech and how far gaming has come in the last few decades. What a time to be a gamer. What a time to be alive
I'm just waiting for the VR mods to really take this to the next level, it's all there. So excited for what this brings.
Hold on to your papers!
I dont, I wish I was like 50 now, barely experience post gen z social media society
@@amosamwig8394 nah I mean It has its problems for sure man but I'm strictly talking about gaming and technology not all the political bullshit and all that

It seems like everyone in the game industry never played video games.
9 Month update: Yeah. People are doing 2v2s now and Pizza Tycoon with zombies. Gaming industry really changed a lot.
Unreal Tournament 2004 came with Unreal Engine on a separate disk and that is what made that game so great. The community was given full control over the developer tool and servers were running tons of awesome user created maps, vehicles, character models. It was amazing
Yeah, enemy territory too no ? 🤗
I'll keep that in mind for my game
So much fun way back when.
I remember this
I’ve always wondered how awesome it’d be if battlefield let independent modders access to it. It’s be infinitely popular. From cod to milsim, the player base would be massive.
Wonder if devs will ever get it!?
battlefield 1942 had this lol
Venice Unleashed gave some of this. Warsaw Revamped is an updated version for BF4 that is in development.
You always wondered and never Googled it? Smh. Battlefield 1942/2 mods. HELLO?!
Project Reality came from BF2.
One year later: nothing has changed.
It's cool but all the creations I played so far just "feel" like Fortnite. Basically all these creations are using the Fortnite framework (obviously) but it kind of limits the fun for me. Not a fan of how the movement/shooting feels in it. It's still awesome to see though, just limited in that respect.
Imagine a community that builds an ultimate cod game with classic maps weapons killstreaks and all with this, I would never buy another cod lol
Law suits would start flying
@@Socalfishingkids Not really, Robox has a game that is very similar to COD, and Fortnite already has creators working on older COD Zombies maps like Nacht der Untoten, as long as they don’t use the exact name or anything along those lines I think it should be fine.. I mean even then look at how creative Minecraft has been and there hasn’t been any lawsuits
There's always been COD maps lol
@@Socalfishingkids Not at all, All someone would have to do is rename the game and all of CODs systems to something else.
@@Socalfishingkids they have shipment and stand-off in fortnite
Truly innovative of them to allow rip off Roblox games on their platform. Haven’t seen anything actually impressive about this whatsoever and it’s almost been a year now.
People are going to be making some absolutely insane content with these tools and I for one am actually excited to see it.
Or absolutely cursed content
Just waiting for someone the remake the entire witcher 3 or something lol
@@daanoffline5716 that's impossible,that requires various things a simple game like Fortnite doesn't have
@@Delsin42 for example? I've seen a bunch of stuff in this video that would work, they would have to figure out how to make signs, and a player model + the maps, it would be an absolute ton of work but don't write it off as impossible.
@@Delsin42 nothings impossible
Wow, Fortnight went from a base defense game to now this...I'm honestly impressed and kinda interested in building an experience as I went the normal Software engineering route rather than Game Designer like I wanted. A good chance to jump into what is a very impressive engine.
Try this - why not! xD
Fuck it we ball
I just find it funny how Roblox literally does the exact same thing but Fortnite just made it so much more easier and better.
How is everyone doing COD better than COD????
Competence and having fun
Because these are projects made with passion first not shareholders. So all the scummy practices are non existent and you get the cod you've been asking them for the last 6 years.
Doing CoD better? Lol. The projects are impressive though.
Funny how every game in the industry is trying to be like COD and COD is trying to get away from what made it popular originally.
@@kenosabi I couldn’t agree more 🙏
Its like roblox studio on anabolic steroids
ur title is a bit much.
Halo Forge walked so UE5 Creators could run

No. Unreal Editor
Unreal Editor for UT99 (1999) ;-)
@@igorthelight Crazy how many people think they took inspiration from Roblox or whatever else there is. :'D
@@Ascendant275 Teens ;-)
The thing that impresses me the most about fortnite is not their ability to stay relevant game for years with a very sizable population of players but their refinement when they release updates. It seems to me that compared to almost every other developers fortnite release with the least amount of bugs and strain on systems.
Strange how several 'people' made this exact comment when we all know its not true...
@@suicidalbanananana i actually think the bugs in fortnite are fun ,(a lot of the time atleast)

@@arefabdollahi4593 i don't want to talk about it 😭
Epic used to do this back in the day for unreal editor 2. But it was for Unreal Tournament. Which was the Fortnite of its time.
Hopefully someone can make an experience like UT in Fortnite since clearly Epic doesn't want to make one
@@neomachine855 UE4 & 5 are just not suited to games as fast paced as UT, that's why Epic hasn't made it.
@@neomachine855 It’s not that they don’t want to, it’s that UE4 and UE5 are unfortunately not made for the kind of game Unreal Tournament is.
@@brawler5760 It sounds to me the best route for them would probably be a heavily modified version of Unreal 3, but I don't know it they'd want to use the resources, but it would be pretty cool and I think if they did do that, they would end up using that newly modified engine for other games not possible on 4 and 5.
This is absolutely incredible! 😮 I think the games and opportunities coming out of this editor will be Unreal 🔥
i c whut u did thar
Lol clever
crazy how AAA devs are usually so reluctant to allow any sort of user-generated content or mods, when time has proven, with so many endless examples; that it is the cheapest, easiest and by far most successful way for a game to have continued popularity and relevance. Decades instead of months, and all it costs is making utilities and tools for users
Nice to see epic kind of make modding possible in a big triple a multiplayer game
How nice of them to re-release the same tools they already released in 2014, but this time lock you into a specific game (instead of just their store) & take 60% cut instead of the 20% they were so proud of. 🤷♂
Nice profile picture
@@suicidalbanananana bruh they have unreal engine 5 for that to go all beyond u can literally download that and do stuff
@@suicidalbanananana you sound like you need to go outside
@@suicidalbananananaA specific game that's still popular and one of the most recognisable of all time, and 60% is better than 0, is it not?
As someone who just started a halo forge project after several Unreal 5 Lyra projects I feel so jebaited! In a good way! Looking forward to hopping back in Unreal!
I'd like to suggest you do yourself a massive favor and just dont go back to UE. You will just keep running into issues and keep getting lulled into having unrealistic expectations, that's all that UE is good for these days ☹
Just my 2 cents, do what you want ofc & good luck with your project.
@@suicidalbanananana that seems to be just a matter of project scope and scale. I’m a level designer so the megascans assets and now the gameplay framework of Fortnite is really enticing for small scale pvp arenas just leveraging existing assets and mechanics
@@GlazednConfused Okay but i did warn ya for unrealistic expectations 😉
Good luck! 👍
meh, pretty lame. Just make your own game in UE5 and forget about Fortnite altogether 🤷♂
This. They are basically outsourcing the legwork. Yeah you may get a jump start and have supportive infrastructure, but this sort of deal comes with chains. Roblox has some pretty hefty chain on its users, especially since they are kid based. The talented kids leave because they don't have the true ownership of their projects and the profit sharing usually is way out of their favor.
This is crazy... Can't imagine how many aspiring developers are benefiting from this right now
hi :) in which way iyho?
@@Flajukas Hello :D I think developers who specialize in unreal engine will get to display their talents on a bigger stage with Fortnite editor. Fortnite is still an absolutely massive platform, and so being able to expose more people to your work there is super awesome in my opinion.
@@Drumbsticks thanks for the answer, I won't lie.... I hated Fortnite ever since, but this graphics update + letting ppl create their own game within game.... it's gonna be a changer in the industry for sure.
I will personally fund a warhammer 40k Space Marine type of game on this engine. So hyped for what people will come up with.
Why not just use pure Unreal Engine 5? ;-)
Its literally a game already being made though lmao, also on UE5
@@PalmsDesign yhea but with fortnite asset
@@PalmsDesign Ik but still a cool concept with the buttery mechanics fortnite has
All three demos were great, but man that last one was just an overall amazing experience.
Maturing is realising Fortnite is actually a goat game
Unreal engine is a massively powerful tool for game development. Narrowing the focus of that tool a bit and allowing designers to easily create content for their most profitable game ever can only bring more profits, AND serve to bring more gamers and enthusiasts into their game design ecosystem. And with how many young people are obsessed with Fortnite that never would have touched unreal otherwise, this is their perfect gateway drug.
This aged well
Dang, Roblox and Fortnite still kicking is nuts! I expected Roblox to go on forever but not Fortnite! Fortnite making strides to keep its play base shows how they have a smart team!
Ok yeah, i understand the implications of what this brings to the gaming industry, its honestly an extremely impressive and exciting thing to see, the possibility of quite actually making whatever you want, within the confines of Fortnite.
...and it seems like the farther we get, the less "confines" there are to work within!! 😆
instead of making people be inspired to create original games with original characters and a set of unique colours and graphics or even developing unique game engines for their games we gonna dive into a generation of people generating cheap content with fortnite models only to get views on youtube content and we all know that gaming content on all platform became dull because games are just a whole bunch of whack for graphics whores with no soul so don't be so optimistic on this one...
Jack has been killing it lately with the content..
He really has. Go JACK!
Games are only just now catching up to valves mod support
lmao this video has aged well
It didn’t age well lol
BR was the sole reason i aint installing Fortnite, its worth praising the live service content its getting and how large scale and over the top events are regards the mtx.
Hopefully this spurs other companies to embrace community content that kept gaming alive back in the 90s and 00s
“Kept gaming alive “ dude wtf lmao most gamers weren’t reliant on the internet back then
@@PatternLand Some of the most popular franchises today were made by or built on the backs of community made content.
The most hated game becomes the most epic, refine, and likable
Cool thing is .. that fortnite creators own the engine and can keep renewing there game
I've got the creative imagination of a teaspoon, and the technological capabilities of one aswell. What some people are going to be able to do with this is mind boggling
40% of the revenue !?
imma have to start working on a Indiana Jones game, based off Raiders of the lost ark.
it would be so sick with unreal engine 5.
This is insane. Imagine budding game devs designing maps/games based on existing fortnite skins! This in turn would incentivize players to buy said skin/s to get the maximum amount of experience from the designed game.
They've been able to do that. A key thing here is that you can bring in your own assets.
UT99 had a massive modding community due to UnrealED, something which lent to the longevity of the game. Mods weren't charged though, they were freely shared and just required the server to have the mod and clients would sideload it if they didn't have the map, model, texture or sound already. edit - I had to post this as I may still be a little salty for Epic releasing fortnite and canning UT4.
As if people aren't already working on something like that along with Paragon. Seems the two Paragon camps aren't great friends and I've seen some dissatisfaction from both. The assets were all released years ago.
To me this looks like the death of game design
I would love to see a third-person action-adventure with rpg mechanics version of fortnite where you go around a map, leveling yourself and becoming more powerful as you experience the actual game's storyline's events
Yeah there is few games to check out actually…..Agent’s of Mayhem, Sunset Overdrive, Saints Row 3/4 , Just cause 3/4 and Crackdown 3 are all essentially “offline” Fortnite due to how they play.
Runescape?
like a risk of rain story mode
Full conquests map would be cool
Im from the future and this hasnt changed gaming in the slightest
I have never touched Fortnite as I'm not into battle royal games but this looks like something I'd find interesting. I Wonder if people could take there creations from this and put them up on something like steam. It's cool to think this could get so many people into game development.
Yep, that "something" like Steam is the Epic Game Store.
Epic and Steam are competitors. Even outside UEFN, games released on Epic Games Store only cost the devs 12%, on steam, it's 30%. They only sit where they are with their library and marketplace/support mods and a user base as big as they do because they've sat in their ivory tower as a monopoly. This is going to be a huge factor of a fairer market in the future, more creators, and more power to the players.
Mods and creative tools will always allow communities to extend the life of games. I hope we see this level of freedom given to players across the board going forward
"imagine that this is first person" yes it's called call of duty.
I'm sure the advancements in UE5, specifically for Fornite will be great for everyone who has a 4090. It's always years until this kinda stuff is even somewhat optimized.
I mean playing the game looks incredible on my humble Radeon RX 6600 ($200 as an upgrade to 1050 TI), I run everything at max at 1440 besides lumen and ray tracing and its phenomenal. Here's a video I made just because the new city that dropped with UE 5.2 also dropped my jaw to the floor: /watch?v=kfvYeWBfMmE
I was also able to record and encode at 1080p60 but dropped the final cut to 30 frames for stylistic reasons
love this endless potential and possibilities of this.
like you said, the concept of an unlimited asset library (like roblox) but with the AAA funding, publishing, and development of Epic and Unreal5
I feel like theres a huge opportunity to see an explosion in creativity in the next few years, in fact i think we're even going to see something more akin to Dreams on playstation
I don’t necessarily enjoy Fortnite, but you gotta be able to recognize it’s ability to stay relevant over the years. Its honestly embarrassing for other games to not look as good as fortnite.
That's actually really awesome!
Not a fan of Fortnite in general, but a huge user of Unreal Engine. It’s a great description from someone in the comments.
Players know what players want. Epic have incentivised in a rev share for experiences and that’s huge for the industry on a AAA engine.
I love how they’re basically turning themselves into Roblox and they’re acting like it’s the most innovative, groundbreaking thing to ever come out of gaming
i love how emotional you are about it
@@woolife171 trust me, I’m not losing any sleep
Never was interested in fortnite and the battle royale game mode, but did like the gameplay mechanics and the fluidity of the game. This may get a whole new market of people into this game if they can create a new world, pretty cool idea!
They saw the versatility of Roblox’s engine and sought to create their own, it’s very smart on their part. Hopefully more developers with their own in house engines follow suit.
Imagine if we got Doors in Fortnite.
I mean, they have been doing this for over 2 decades lol, look up “unreal tournaments”
This actually isn't their first rodeo, this is Epic Games going back to it's roots.
How is this gonna change the industry? It's just an engine like unreal engine. That's what Fortnite is betting on, its OWN future, not future of gaming. They know Fortnite is dying or not gonna last forever.
The game is playing just like Fortnite but with different background assets. I really don't think it's that mind blowing.
OMG THE INDUSTRY IS FOREVER CHANGED! ( it's not )
Love to see the return of community modding. Embraced and supported at that. The nerds of the early days salute the new generation of gamers. So much fun to be had
fortnites mechanics are so fucking clunky, a FPS in fortnite would be dogshit lol... might as well go play a roblox first-person shooter, its exactly the same amount of mediocracy.
Jack uploading is always a W
This man is like the Mumbo Jumbo of FPS games
So instead of character skins you have game skins in relation to Fortnite relevancy. Other people here have said there was something similar to this called unreal tournament that was released by unreal engine back in 2004? So yeh. Someone also said Roblox did something similar to this back in the day.
Gotta hand it to the Devs they have kept this game going with consistent content.
Hopefully it's a big success and more studios do this. No more wasting an entire engine on a hit or miss title.
for once i actually wanna play fortnite again
This is wild.
I’m not much a fortnite guy, but this is incredible! I miss games having a “forge” mode and this really takes it up a level!
It reminds me of the UT2004 days. It spawned so many cool mods and standalone games, incredibly different from the base game.
The amount of times a video game on Jackfrags channel was supposed to, "change the gaming industry forever"... Like bro. Just call it what it is, shit's annoying to see.
While people underestimate what can be done with Portal this is very eye opening. Imagine what could be done with full official mod tools returning to Battlefield. BF2 for example spawned the Project Reality milsim mod which then inspired Squad and Reality Mod (mod for BF3). Apart from game overhauls the community could create endless maps, weapons, factions etc.
I don't know anybody else who has, but I pre ordered Fortnite when it was just Save the world, and to see how far and what this game has done in 6 years, is actually hard to comprehend sometimes, im glad they are letting the community use and create their own games, and this will prolly keep them afloat for as long as people are creative, very good idea on their part.
yep, Fortnite really is not just a game. It's a playground for Epic that they can mass test using fortnite gamers and collect data at the same time. I mean, surely the vehicle physics, motorcycles, and cars in fortnite can be cloned and be applied on their future projects.
I can’t wait to see what the community creates
Fortnite turning into what roblox wishes it was. This is gonna be so good for the game and Devs.
They are kinda taking the apple approach of taking a cut of everything, and the valve approach of letting people mod their game (and later they might poach the devs to make a full one). We kind of already know the engine can do different things because other games exist.
This looks like an extremely powerful tool. But why would anyone choose to develop such a high effort project on Fortnite instead of making their own game?
