Since the Fortnite national service opened a limited test last month, netizens seeking to recruit friends for a time have spread all over the network, and "hoeing the earth" has also become a daily routine for netizens. Today (August 17th), Fortnite officially opened its beta, and players who have not been recruited have the opportunity to enter the experience game.
Fortnite configuration requirements testing
Fortnite, built using Unreal Engine 4, is very well-crafted, so the game's requirements for computer configuration first become a hot spot for players.
Official recommended configuration requirements:
Operating system: Windows 7/8/10 64-bit
Processor: Core i5 2.8 Ghz
Memory: 8 GB of RAM
Graphics: Nvidia GTX 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7870 equivalent DX11 GPU
Memory: 2 GBy VRAM
According to the official recommended configuration, the hardware requirements of the Fortnite game are not high, and the computers used by players can basically meet the requirements. Next, Xiaobian uses actual tests to show you the operation of the game under different computer configurations.
Test environment 1: processor i7-7700 3.60GHz, memory 8G dual channel, graphics card GTX1050Ti.
When the game resolution is 1080P (1920*1080), the picture quality is epic, the vertical synchronization is turned off, the dynamic blur is turned on, and the game is run in this state, the experience is slightly reluctant, and there is occasional stutter during the fight. However, if you adjust the picture quality to a high level, it is very smooth and does not affect the game experience at all. Coupled with the fact that Fortnite is optimized very well, the game runs very smoothly, and the high quality has been able to fully meet the needs of players.
Test environment 2: processor i3-4150 3.50GHz, memory 8G dual channel, graphics card GTX750.
When the game resolution is 1080P (1920 * 1080), the frame number is limited to 60, the actual is about 50, and the picture quality is customized: the viewing range is epic, shadows and anti-aliasing are turned off, the texture is high, the effect is high, the post-processing is low, the vertical synchronization, the dynamic blur are turned off, the game can be played, the game experience is more reluctant, the stutter is slightly more serious, but it can still play smoothly.
From the test environment 2, it is not difficult to see that Fortnite does not have high requirements for computer configuration, which is very close to the people, so players cannot play without worrying about computer problems.
The free game meets the psychological expectations of national service players
On July 24th, Fortnite National Costume began a limited test, Tencent changed the activation code strategy, the use of friend recruitment system, is the most pleasing place for National Service players, players who have obtained the test qualification as long as online for more than 20 hours, you can recruit friends to play together. Despite the restriction that recruitment is limited to once a week, in less than a month, Guofu already has a large number of users. It is believed that when the test is officially opened on August 17th, the number of players in Fortnite will surely grow in a spurt.
The free Battle Royale mode is one of the most attractive ways Fortnite is for players. Compared with the many paid purchase games that limit the pace of players, Fortnite obviously does not intend to "embarrass" players here, not only is it not difficult, but also allows players to experience the thrill of krypton gold games in free-to-play games.
As we all know, RPG role-playing games will divide the equipment weapons into levels and distinguish them by color, usually from white, green, blue, purple, orange, and red attribute ladders, and good quality weapons and equipment often require a lot of kryptonite to obtain. Fortnite introduces this system into shooting games, dividing gun items into five levels of ordinary, rare, rare, epic, and legendary according to different colors, and hiding treasure chests in hidden places such as rooftops, allowing players to experience the mystery of the lottery in the process of finding treasure chests, which can be described as very attractive to players.
Simplifying gun games is easier to pick up
Compared to other shooting battle royale games, Fortnite greatly simplifies the acquisition of firearms, whether it is a pistol, rifle, or sniper rifle, all of which are all designed as one, without the need for players to search around for accessories. In the case of pistols, for example, revolvers with low damage and long change times are only between normal and rare, while the quality of a low-damage and silenced pistol is epic and legendary. This is true of rifles, submachine guns, sniper rifles and other weapons.
You can use the weapon when you get it, no longer have to search for accessories, which greatly reduces the difficulty of the game, the player only needs to remember the quality of the weapon represented by different colors, and choose to change the weapon accordingly.
In addition to the common weapons mentioned above, Fortnite added corresponding high-explosive weapons to its unique construction system: grenade launchers, rocket launchers, and tracking missiles. These weapons play a very important role in attacking and defending from a distance and destroying enemy defense towers, and are indispensable in the game.
The simplification of guns makes Fortnite easier to get started, which is very friendly for novice players. After all, not every player is familiar with the accessories and attributes required for each gun, dividing them into different qualities by color, which is noticeably better at distinguishing.
The novel construction system is evocative
If gun simplification makes the game a single, the unique building system greatly enriches Fortnite's gameplay. When attacked, rookie players are busy fleeing, ordinary players build walls, and god players rise up, which is the most realistic portrayal of this game.
After entering the game, everyone lands with a hoe in hand, and everything around them is available resources: wood, bricks, iron. The bearing capacity of walls built of different materials is not the same. When encountering an enemy sneak attack and finding the enemy's position, you may wish to put a wall around the body to protect your safety; when you encounter terrain that cannot be reached or want to climb to a high place to explore, you can try to use the slope to build an artificial staircase; even when you want to stand in the sky and look at the distant scenery, the construction system can send you to the sky to let you realize your dreams.
The unique construction system has added a tower defense system to the battle of Fortnite, although it has greatly improved the playability of the game, but it has also been difficult for many players with slow hands.
In the face of the construction system, the player is no longer stuck to shooting, but the practical ability is tested, a second to build a building and take out the weapon to aim and shoot, obviously the latter is simpler, for those who can't find the button for half a day and don't know what to build, or directly find a bunker to hide is the best choice.
The building system derives more gameplay
The high degree of freedom derived from the construction system is the biggest feature of Fortnite, and by fusing all the elements together, you will find this game very interesting.
Relying on the construction system, Fortnite's inventory has an additional "damage trap" item, and you can install traps on the building plane to lure enemies into the trap to kill, which is a fun way to play. During the attack, in addition to weapons that can crush the opposite building, sticky grenades and remote-controlled bombs can also be adsorbed on the surface of the building to cause damage, helping you blow up the enemy's defenses. The Handicapped Party won't build buildings? Then try the "Moving Fortress", take a shot and immediately level the ground and rise to the top, standing upstairs and looking down at the enemies who are beating you up, don't feel too cool.
When there is no bandage potion on the body, put a campfire on the building slab, and the health of the roast fire will slowly regenerate, and it can be used by teammates to return the blood in the group. In Fortnite, there is no equipment, only health bars and shield values, taking the shield potion will fold the shield to a full value of 100, and will help you resist 100 damage in a shootout, but if you fall from a high place, the shield will not do much.
If you're not highly proficient with the game or are afraid of dragging your teammates along, try 50vs50 offensive and defensive battles. Follow behind other teammates to make a small salted fish, observe the operation of the master, help make up for the damage, not only can experience the fun of Fortnite, but also learn a lot of game skills, why not enjoy it?
The beautiful picture is a pleasure
Fortnite's art style adopts a light and clear European and American card ventilation, the 3D model is very exquisite, coupled with the optimization of WEGame, the game runs very smoothly, and there will be absolutely no collapse. Every frame in the game is a beautiful picture - from the day and night changes, to the butterflies flying among the flowers, to the clear river water, and the splash of water splashed by bullets into the river.
The full moon that rises slowly at the turn of day and night is beautiful, and the picture in higher quality is amazing enough.
But perhaps it is in this too real 3D effect, but let many halo 3D players feel headaches, if you let the editor to rate this game, the decimal system will give nine points, the remaining one point is a 3D game vertigo player silent complaint.
The short game time is more in line with the needs of players
The diversity of gameplay does not increase the play time of each game of Fortnite, but rather because the map is smaller, it is more prone to firefights, from engagement to end, often occurring in an instant. With the S5 season update, there are a lot of rift portals in the Fortnite sky, and players who approach will be randomly teleported somewhere in the air. By using gliding again, the player can quickly reach their destination. The appearance of the Rift Portal allows players to move more quickly, whether it is used to stay away from the Storm Circle or strategically attack or escape, which is a very good choice. At the same time, this also accelerates the game time in disguise, making the game full of more unknowns and fun.
With the acceleration of the pace of life, people may be difficult to have enough time to play, but more fragmented time, Fortnite's fast-paced game method, just to meet the needs of most netizens, what can be more interesting than the thrilling Fortnite after dinner?
According to the table of Twitch's number of game viewers in July according to the statistics of the famous foreign analysis company Esports Charts, Fortnite occupies the top position with an absolute advantage, far ahead of the second place. It is believed that after the opening test of the national service, the players of the national service will also increase significantly. If you like shooting games and like the thrill of competitive games, then don't miss it, Fortnite is waiting for you.
