The building mechanic in Fortnite has changed how the game was meant to be played. By now, any seasoned player of Fortnite would be a pro builder in the game. Many players need just a few seconds to build a fort to take cover and fight the opponents. While the building mechanic was introduced for the same reason, many players have taken it to a new level. With the OG map making a return, looks like many players are avoiding complex buildings to get a feel for the initial seasons.

After the release of OG Fortnite, many players are trying to factor in the original playstyle where building was not the main mechanic. Many believe that players will not get to enjoy the original map if they are busy building their own forts. One post on X clearly shows what Fortnite has become and fans shared their opinions on the same.

Fortnite is bringing in the original map for Season 4 Chapter 5. This has many fans excited to be able to drop at some of the game’s most iconic locations. While the game tries to give fans a sense of nostalgia by introducing the original map, many players are busy playing the game like nothing changed.

Players are still focusing on the building and missing out on what the game has to offer. This is clearly portrayed in the following post on X (formerly Twitter). The post was captioned “OG Fortnite map back but whats the point if half the lobby plays like this,” expressing the disappointment towards players who are not taking a minute to enjoy what Epic Games has done for them.

In the post, fans can see how a player is using complex building techniques to take cover from an opponent. To any non-Fortnite player, this might look a little chaotic, but its safe to say that most players understand what exactly is going down.

 

Upon watching the clip in the tweet, many fans were disappointed in the state of Fortnite.
