This Recent Change Managed To Piss Off ALL Fortnite Players

Fortnite was the first battle royale game to implement cross-platform play (crossplay) between its mobile, consoles, and PC players. It’s been in place for quite a while now but a recent change in the matchmaking system is making console and mobile players very unhappy.

In the game’s latest update (V10.40), Epic introduced “improvements” to the matchmaking system in order to ensure that players will be accurately matched with those possessing similar skill levels. It would do this without filtering platforms so regardless if you’re a PC, console, or mobile player, the system matches you purely based on your performance in the game.

Prior to this, the system was only implemented in the game’s Arena mode which is basically a ranked competitive mode. Now it’s being done for the core modes as well so a majority of the playerbase who play on consoles and mobiles are being matched up with PC players regardless of whether they want it or not. You can’t turn off the crossplay function.

Fortnite Redditors and Twitter users have been expressing their frustrations towards the new skill-based matchmaking system which puts them at a severe disadvantage due to the difference in hardware, connection lag, and input lag found in consoles and mobiles.

What the actual fuck he is on mobile in pc lobbies I checked his stats and he is actually on mobile from FortniteCompetitive

With some PC players having the hardware to play the game at higher framerates and also access to smoother Internet connection, it’s obviously very unfair to console and mobile players. It’d be fine if the system at least informs players about the difference in platform but it doesn’t do that anymore. Players are just told which server they’re in.

Epic really needs to rethink this decision and listen to the community. It’s one thing to be matched with other players based on skills but it’s another to have to go against people who simply have better hardware than you do.
