Since the launch of Fortnite’s 10th season last week, one topic has drowned out all others within the community: the introduction of mechs that many frustrated players consider to be massively overpowered. And while Epic had previously remained steadfast in its refusal to either vault or tone down mechs, it’s now announced it will be making tweaks to their functionality.
Admittedly, it’s doubtful that Epic’s upcoming changes will do much to stem the tide of complaints levied at mechs, known as B.R.U.T.E.s in-game.
Rather than reining in their destructive prowess, Epic is merely implementing new visual and audio cues designed to provide clearer information about what a mech will do next, giving players a fighting chance of survival.
