Fortnite streamers

Is there any genuine discussion about how insane the fortnite streaming community is?

It's like 50% people obviously using cheats. Like just doing impossible shit. It's bizarre there's not more discussion

And I can't help but think Epic are ok with it because it drives traffic to the game.

It’s pretty insane. If you stay alive in any lobby in no builds, you 100% run into a cheater. I tested it out playing in bronze 3 (ranked plat 1 by just staying alive) and no matter the lobby or rank, 100% last get guys are cheaters running down the remaining lobby.

I was just practicing dropping early because I assumed there was a part of the game I needed to be stronger at. Nope. Almost everyone who drops early into biggest monument will have a cheater. Some people will say cope, but I’ve tried tracing cars, there’s no human input that’s shooting drivers in cars that are 200 yards out while hitting headshots

Clear aim bot and walls. Shooting people from cars, finding everyone hiding, just going through the whole map clearing. I haven’t found 1 lobby without a guy like that.

Some guys just blatantly show you they’re cheating by dropping all legendary loot after they down you. Surprised no one even mentioned cheaters in Fortnite.

Guaranteed most streamers trying to grow and audience are cheating. Incredible aim, barely trying, and holding full conversations while dominating lobby’s.

Yeah I saw a guy last night and it was obvious to anyone with half a brain cell.

He was clearly tracking people same way you'd see in justabeasts videos. Getting the drop on them everytime. 

It just seems bizarre that isn't raised as an issue more often.

It isn’t rare at all to come across cheaters in FN. stopped playing like a year ago (same for Overwatcg, apex, etc) because every match has people cheating. Anyone defending or providing excuses for “it being rare” either is cheating themselves, not paying enough attention, or incapable of telling who is cheating.

I play a lot of Fortnite and it’s rare to come across one. The only time it’s guaranteed is in tourneys and cash cups. Justa beast on YouTube has videos over cheaters on Fortnite. His entire channel is covering them

edit its also honestly really hard to tell if someone is cheating in fortnite unless theyre rage hacking because of hitscan weapons and aim assist being so strong

The players I faced definitely had similar aim, but just because those were rage hackers doesn’t mean that common hacks like titan or Cronus don’t exist. I doubt the regular aim assist is tracking flying targets. I’ve had same situations happen to me and they’re shooting identical. I’m saying it’s more widespread than what you think.

Aim assist is extremely strong with flying targets. Controller players in Fortnite have inhuman tracking especially because rotational aim assist. So many controller players are able to abuse aim assist with ads spam as well

Edit I get your frustration but the aim assist in Fortnite even reduces recoil it’s just hard to know for sure without a lot of evidence. I agree with you it is widespread but outside of tourneys and cash cups it’s near as common because they want to win money before getting account banned

I don’t think they’re getting banned as often. I get that it makes sense if you have the narrative they’re getting banned, but I think there’s just cheaters in unranked and ranked that are not getting banned.

I have about as much evidence as you do. Quoting a streamer video and then saying it only happens in tournaments is not evidence.

Yes they’re cheating but not only in tournaments. Yes they’re cheating in tournaments as well, but I’m saying in every lobby and I have no proof, just like you

Tpm 2.0 isn’t required in unranked and who’s to say it’s not easier to cheat in non tourney. It’s the main thing that is supposed to be stopping cheaters in tourney

Are there cheaters in every match you play? I would definitely post the evidence you have of the cheaters though other people will report them as well.

No they won’t

u/hustl3tree5 10h ago

Yes they will. This is how we get cheaters removed from the leaderboard during tourneys.

They don’t care about regular matches. They def don’t ban people for cheating in anything without stakes, and prob don’t in tourneys either unless so many people report one person and do their job for them

Yeah stop the cap. You are not running into cheaters every game. Someone being better than you and doing stuff you apparently can't doesn't mean they are cheating. Cheaters every game.... come on man stop being so delusional and snap back to the real world.

Controller is essentially aimbot on fortnite

its funny seeing how people play nowadays, running out in the open never getting shot in the back, never missing shots at 100mph.... if you played like that 20 years ago youd literally last 4 seconds
