what is Up Guys in today's video we're

going to be going over what changed in

fortnite's all sweat Summer Event this

is going to be the summer event for

chapter 5 as always if you guys do enjoy

this video remember to give it a like

subscribe if you like some more and

comment down below what you think of

these changes they are mostly in ranked

mode though so if you guys were unaware

that the all sweat Summer Event was

starting today you are not alone because

I was completely not aware that there

was a summer event this season um so

yeah they added a few challenges and

free rewards the challenges I've seen

were to like Outlast players or make it

to like a certain placement um and then

also to get eliminations and then

there's a free glider back bling and

wrap that you can unlock by doing these

challenges the underwriter NPC was added

at the beach house West of pleasant

Piaza and he sells a purple combat

shotgun patch up and Storm Circle reveal

for 200 gold um and those are the extent

of the changes in regular Battle Royale

so if you don't play ranked or don't

care about ranked that is the extent of

this year's summer event for you for

ranked they made uh several changes and

I think if you are someone who enjoys

ranked you're going to be pretty happy

with these changes and if you weren't

someone who played ranked before you

might consider wanting to play it now

and these changes are going to be that

they removed cars completely and the

boss cars from ranked and then they also

completely removed NPCs aside from the

bosses and their guards I believe um and

then also like the radio tower ones and

stuff like that but there's not going to

be NPCs that you can hire anymore and

there's not going to be NPCs that you

can buy loot from anymore in the ranked

game mode and then cars are the same way

the cars and the boss cars are

completely removed from the ranked game

mode also the Nitro gloves were said to

be removed by epic games um when they

posted this however playing zerob build

ranked the Nitro gloves are still in

zero build ranked so I'm not sure if

maybe they removed the the gloves from

builds and then that's why they said

they removed the gloves but like they

intentionally kind of kept them there

for Zer build just because the game

plays out a little bit differently I

think that would make a lot of sense but

it's also possible that maybe they just

didn't intended to remove the gloves and

then messed up it's really hard to know

with epic games sometimes when there's

changes like this because uh sometimes

they don't say everything they mean or

they say things that just turn out to be

incorrect like this and you got to kind

of guess one way or the other whether

what they actually meant by what they

said but just in quick recap no more

cars no more NPCs um and then

potentially no more gloves and build

ranked but zero build does have no cars

and no NPC still I think this is a great

change uh I'm very happy they did this

I'm not someone who really enjoys

playing ranked uh the gameplay in this

video I'm playing ranked but it's my

first few games of the season so it

wasn't you know special um but I I think

having ranked and pubs be different

rules makes it the game better for

everybody it's a huge point of

contention with the launch of this

season and players not enjoying the meta

and not enjoying the cars and so like

eventually epic nerfed the cars and in

my opinion they made it a lot better but

for players who really liked the cars

and liked the craziness they feel like

they made it a lot worse so I feel like

having pubs and ranked have separate

loot pools and have potentially separate

rets just has always made the most sense

to me um to make as many people happy as

possible and this is something they did

in the past when it was Arena Arena

would have different rules or like

different items potentially like some

you know cheesier items not in the loot

pool but when they made it ranked in

chapter 4 they for some reason regressed

and like were of the mindset that like

pubs and ranked needs to have the same

rule set um but also tournaments also

had different rule set so what they did

today is basically they just made rank

have the tournament rules which I think

makes ranked a better you know

competitive experience and if you're

someone who wants to play ranked and

wants to play competitive that's what

you should want most right and I I never

thought it made sense to have ranked be

as close to pubs as possible so that

like I guess the idea or the argument

would be that like players can relate to

it if they're typically play pubs and

then they go into ranked the game play

is more relatable but there's still

going to be a divide when those players

go to tournaments and then tournaments

are different from ranked you know and

the difference is there's like a few

cups a week that someone can play

whereas ranked is there at all times for

them so I feel like if you're going to

have that like breakoff point where

there's different stuff you might as

well have it in ranked in a mode where

people can play it at all times and

practice and get used to it rather than

someone playing ranked a good amount

feeling like okay I'm doing well I'm

going to play in the next cup and then

the cup is just a completely different

rule set and then now they have to wait

a week to be able to try again and get

practice again so I think ranked in

tournaments should always be the same

rule set I think that just makes the

most sense for the fortnite community

even if you're someone who hates

competitive I think it makes the most

sense because then hopefully those

people aren't in your games anymore and

then public matches aren't balanced

around tournaments and hopefully that

ends up being a situation that's better

for everybody involved or at least

that's what I think it would be like uh

so I think this is a good change even

though I'm not someone who really plays

ranked much or cares to play ranked much

but I I still think it was a very good

change and it's how things should have

always been but let me know down in the

comments below what you think I'm sure a

lot of you are pretty disappointed in

the all sweat summer of event it's

pretty underwhelming but this is like

kind of the third row or third year in a

row where like the summer events kind of

lackluster so I really didn't expect

much and I didn't even know it was

happening today um and then if you

aren't someone who plays ranked

typically but you're going to hop into

ranked let me know that down in the

comments below because I think that uh

there will be more people playing it now

because of these changes than there were

before but let me know what you guys

think if you found this video helpful

and fortive interesting remember to give

it a like subscribe if you would like to

see more and I'll see you guys in the

next one thanks for watching

I just realized that years from now we

might have to play Chapter 5

OG how many years would that be so this

year would be chapter 2 next year would

be chapter 3 the year after that would

be chapter 4 and chapter

5 chapter 3 25 chapter 4 26 so 2027

November we get to play Chapter 5 OG

is the attack still enabled uh yeah I'm

pretty sure that like some random was

trying to beat

earlier I think the first time I got it

since I've been playing rank the guy was

like Melee spamming and I almost died to

him

right 100% Kool-Aid and and it like I I

feel like any period of time like would

be fun to go back

to if it's been a while like chapter 2

OG at the end of this year I'm looking

forward

to it's supposedly just going to be

seasons 1 2 and 3 I quit the game a week

into chapter 2 Season 3 because I was so

tilted with seasons 1 and two of that

chapter but I'm so excited to Play It

Again most of why I was tilted though

was just the delays like chapter 2

season 1 was 128 days no updates chapter

2 season 2 got some updates and then it

got delayed to the point where it was

120

days and like prior to those two seasons

like seasons were like 70 days Ash so

it's like they were so much

longer this guy just like sniped at

me I don't know where he is though okay

there he is I found him

I should be able to catch him cuz I have

myi oh thanks Mr Beast gave me a

medallion what a great guy someone just

bunkered behind

me chapter 4 season 3 cuz the jungle

biome I feel you the jungle biome wasn't

even like

the peak of my concern with

that like it wasn't good don't get me

wrong but like for me that season like

the frustrating part with explosive

repeater soring Sprints chalk wave combo

bunkers worth carrying in ranks uh

somewhat is I I think it really depends

on how you're going to play I don't know

like to me

personally I think up to Diamond ranked

games are easier than pubs and there's

not really an actual end game so bunkers

aren't as

necessary I was carrying them earlier

this match just cuz there was nothing

really else I wanted to carry and they

can definitely be helpful in certain

situations but I just feel like there's

rarely an endgame in ranked in the lower

ranks in the higher ranks and like yeah

they could be

essential but also like

it depends how you play if you play less

aggressive like this Lobby is really

dead right but like part of why it's

dead is because I was like running

around and killing people and so if I

was also playing more passive then like

there might be more people alive and

then there would be like an actual end

game and then at that point having

bunkers would be really

beneficial o

[Applause]
