As we are still in the first week of a new Fortnite season, many players are exploring new areas and testing new weapons. Considering that Epic Games has added a lot of new content, it will take a while for everyone to get used to it. In the meantime, the game developer will keep releasing balance changes to make the game fair for everyone.
The first Fortnite nerf arrived on Tuesday evening, affecting two weapons. Just 24 hours later, Epic released another one, reducing the effectiveness of War Machine’s Hover Jets. While you can still use this item to fly around the island, its boost function was nerfed to the ground.
The latest Fortnite nerf makes War Machine’s Hover Jets almost useless Thanks to an impressive player count in Fortnite , it’s nearly impossible for Epic Games to properly test all the new items before they come out. With millions of players playing on a daily basis, some items are bound to perform much better than the rest. This has been the case for three items so far in the season, as they’ve all been nerfed.
The latest nerf affects War Machine’s Hover Jets, the newest mobility item in Fortnite. This item is especially amazing when paired with other weapons, such as War Machine’s Arsenal or Auto Turret . However, it appears that it’s been performing much better than Epic expected, which is why it was nerfed.
These are all the Fortnite balance changes that were recently released: Fuel consumption of Boost increased by 150% Boost max speed decrea.
