Two maps for Fortnite's new mode

Блог
We recently reported that Epic Games' Fortnite "battle royale" has introduced matches that follow the rules of Counter-Strike: in them, two teams of five people also plant or defuse a bomb on a map with marked points. And those who are not interested in playing special forces or bandits, can just shoot at will. Recently, two new locations were introduced for this mode - on one of them the battle is simmering among the scenery of a medieval castle, and the other one offers to deal with enemies on a sandy beach.

Fans of the online action game are already well acquainted with the "Line of Fire" mode. Now it has been joined by "Test Sites" - a special format of the game, when users themselves test the innovations in practice. The first in line were two maps - "Castle of Tides" and "Storm Bay", which will alternate with "Skyline 10". The first and the second are essentially blanks: they are not fully textured, there are no usual in such cases scenery and plants around. But the main features, including architecture and signage, are in place. The developers separately note that you will need a reconnaissance grenade to fight in Storm Bay, as there are a lot of hiding places here.

Other equipment is also in order. Together with the patch 34.30 gamers get access to the Sovereign sniper rifle, which shoots surprisingly fast for its class, as well as to a machine gun, fire grenade and Adrenaline gadget - it instantly replenishes the energy of any character. It is also worth keeping in mind that along with the release of this update in "Line of Fire" comes the first rating season "Theory and Practice".
