Everything Epic DIDNT Tell You In The HUGE Patch! (Crash Pads, Umbrellas) - Fortnite Battle Royale

**Update Notes and Expectations**

To address some concerns about the recent update, I wanted to take a moment to discuss what we can expect from this latest patch. First and foremost, it's worth noting that the developers have been working hard to resolve several issues that were plaguing the game. One of the most significant updates is the fix for the harpoons, which were previously bugged and not functioning as intended.

Not only has the harpoon bug been fixed, but also the tournament scores are now stable and accurate. This means that players can focus on competing without having to worry about the scoring system being incorrect. Additionally, the harpoons can now pick up items and fish properly, which should improve overall gameplay experience.

**Mechs and April Fool's Jokes**

Another exciting development is the potential return of mechs in the game. According to rumors, mechs might be coming back for April Fool's Day, but only time will tell if this is indeed a joke or a real game-changer. The developers have been teasing new content and codes, which has led many players to speculate about what might be in store.

In related news, the Deadpool scan is expected to drop on Friday, accompanied by all-new Deadpool-themed items, including dual pistols. Additionally, there are rumors of doomsday devices being discovered in the agency, hinting at an apocalyptic plotline. Whether these elements will become a part of the game remains to be seen.

**Gameplay Mechanics and Balance**

One area that has been receiving attention is the balance of gameplay mechanics. Specifically, the recoil with mouse and keyboard has been tweaked to make it more comparable to control or recoil using other input methods. While this change may not have been officially announced by the developers, players have noticed a significant difference in the game's overall feel.

Another issue that has arisen is the presence of "box" characters who seem to be overpowered. These box-wielding individuals can quickly take down opponents with ease, making it difficult for other players to compete. In response, some players are resorting to using umbrellas as a form of protection, which has led to a new dynamic in gameplay.

**Community and Social Interactions**

As always, the community is at the forefront of this update's excitement. Players are sharing their experiences, tips, and strategies on social media platforms like Twitter, where they're discussing everything from recoil changes to umbrella gameplay mechanics.

In one notable incident, a player was unexpectedly launched into space, leaving them stunned and bewildered. Another player attempted to communicate with a rival but ended up getting "beamed" out of the game entirely.

**Technical Issues and Bugs**

Unfortunately, the update also brought some technical issues to light. One notable bug involves the ability to grab items while using the umbrella, which has led to some frustrating experiences for players.

Additionally, there have been reports of a doomsday device-related bug that causes problems with nades, but it's unclear whether this issue has been fixed or not.

**Conclusion**

Overall, the latest update has brought about both excitement and challenges. As always, the developers are working hard to ensure a smooth gaming experience for all players. Whether mechs will return or new items will drop on Friday remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the game is constantly evolving, and we can't wait to see what's next.

In the meantime, players should keep an eye out for any further updates and patches that may resolve some of the issues mentioned above. With each update, the game becomes more refined and enjoyable, and I'm sure that fans will be eager to continue exploring its many possibilities.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enyo what's up guys it's cypher and um we have a new 4/9 update like an actual content filled fortnight update okay I'm kind of hyped because there's actually a lot of new stuff it into something there's new items there's changes that have been done and we can kind of start to beginning begin to understand where this chapter is gonna take us like what their plans are for the end of the chapter let's get right into it let me first thing start off by Nick acting this guy unfortunate for you you guys know the movie Kingsman the Secret agent movie I gotta be honest with you I don't watch the movie I heard it was good though but they added an item from that movie into the game that's called the Kingsmen umbrella it's a shield so you can use the umbrella to block bullets and apparently you can also use it to glide or redeploy so this thing is pretty strong jack where can where can we find the the umbrella and apparently it does come from chests so hopefully we get lucky here and pull one out from a chest speaking of surviving fall damage they added a new item they didn't bring back bounce pads but they added inflatable inflatable bounce pads okay let's try to find one it'd be nice but these things are not though oh I think epic is watching this the video what's up epic how you doing thank you for giving me the what do you call these things crash pads okay so it comes in stacks of three I think you could probably stack six of them but we'll see that can bounce you and save you from football damage alright let's let's test this thing out okay since this is we're just experimenting tomber is a pretty big surface and like it's not like a normal one by one it's covering like a pretty big surface and I only by the way it only lasts 30 seconds this thing only lasts 30 seconds I can you build on it you can um it kind of bounces you in the direction that you're landing on and it allows you to glide away it'll whoa whoa I just do that you press spacebar to deploy the crash pad while you're in the air let's get up we got we got some height let's go there we go straight up that's pretty cool so like it's not like the bounce pad I think this is gonna be like more enjoyable to use at the bounce pad because the bounce pad the VI about the bounce pad is that it was like too easy to use because you didn't have to give up a slot in your inventory I really want to find a shotgun and start moving around in I just want to try to find that umbrella so I can show that off as well epic is watching the stream there's no doubt about it I've needed a shotgun they gave me a purple spaz streamer Lou is real guys you're seeing it here first hand the mechs have been updated in the code now I don't think mechs are coming back but you know April 1st is around the corner potentially potentially the mechs are coming back as an April Fool's joke there we go you just have to edit down to is that that's all you had to do I did not mean to do that I try to build a floor oh he has the umbrella which means he didn't have to fall to his death he has the Kingsmen legendary umbrella dude I'm getting so lucky for this patch video okay okay okay okay we have light saber vibes definitely light saber vibes pretty much the same right-click to block bullets probably limited amount of blocks all right what else what else there's got to be something else to it she worse name is Alana in a tree all right all Oh what I have it out can I glad to redeploy no that's the bounce pad oh you just right-click you just right-click while you're in the air but this isn't no black glider we deploy this is like a very slow oh but you could probably do it last minute man hold up hold up hold up hold right click then left click left click while blocking to - whoa knocking like the animation if that doesn't look really clean but can I do that while I'm in the air no whoa whoa there's a limit to this thing there's a limit to this thing you can hear the umbrella kind of give it out a little bit yeah yeah this thing's not meant to be like super high drops but maybe you can look I don't want to jump to conclusions but charge it up what do you mean charge it up whoa whoa okay so that's you can - you can also do the dodges just like the lifesaver people are saying when you right-click you charge it up I'll charge the - of oh okay oh gee I wonder how many builds that breaks through hold up I'm gonna box in so I don't get killed I know I have a storm on me but one sec okay okay there's like one box but like I wonder how much damage that does okay the farming is pretty slow with this thing they might have made it where you can't really farm that fast with it but does break things faster so by the way they fix harpoons harpoons are now working as intended they were bugged for a little bit not working properly but now the harpoons are better which is good they can pick items up now and they can fish like they'd like they used to that was really annoying but now they're fixed that's awesome apparently the tournament scores are fixed as well we had a lot of issues in competitive because the points weren't adding up and you had to keep track of it mentally and that wasn't cool but that is fixed as well so yeah potentially for April Fool's mechs might come back that's my assumption because they did update the codes for the max kind of cool bro so maybe that's their April Fool's joke this Friday the Deadpool scan is gonna drop apparently and the yacht is gonna change to all deadpool themed stuff with the Deadpool dual pistols and all that stuff so be sure to stay tuned for that and there's like some doomsday devices apparently that are being found in the agency so like where it's looking like we're gonna see some
