The Rise & Fall of Controller Players in Fortnite

Sign up for an account on PlayAcademy and enter Peterbot's $10,000 Solo Tournament for a chance to win a BRAND NEW PC: playacademy.gg...
In a game as advanced as Fortnite, controller players had no business competing with anybody using a keyboard and mouse. But 2 years after the game’s release, they were completely terrorizing the competitive scene. At one point, 80% of players in every major tournament played on controller, but today, that number has plummeted to under 10%. So how does a community that makes up 3/4 of the entire playerbase struggle to compete at the highest level? This is the rise and fall of Controller players in Fortnite.

I think the introduction of duos and no siphon is a big reason to why there arent many up and coming controller players. Many great controller players of today started out as fraggers and in a trio its easier to have a designated role.

[@ERK_hanna]

I agree, thought trios was just as competitive and a lot more fun than duos.

[@viruxlol6199]

nah the main reason is the fact that to be the best you possibly can be is u need to play claw or paddles (cost a decent amount of money) not to mention the fact that aim assist is not even that good rn. they need to buff aim assist at least a little because kbm will always have better aim than us no matter what

Controller need aim assist otherwise it's un usable in battle royale people just don't get it , as a controller player I have never been consistent in any game because the games start out as all players learning the game whether using keyboad , mobile ,or controller but after patches controller players in every battle royale gets nerfed and nerfed to the point you cant even aim , this is because people keep complaining about controllers being broken thats why many controller players cheat lol like you got to make your own aim assist 😂

Controller just isn't competitive. There's a reason CSGO has no aim assist. An input system that takes away control of the player but also lacks the accuracy to aim requiring aim assist to even compete with keyboard and mouse is just dumb.

Clearly you’ve never played apex legends that game is dominated by controller 70% of all players are controller majority of all pros have or are in the processs of switching to controller that average controller player has an over 30% better kd than the average kbm player and all pros are open to admit controller is far superior than kbm it’s basically Fortnite with roles reversed it’s a fun game but it fell of hard and the game is in a decline rn.

[@elmegacaballerov3530]

Maybe a good way to help controller players a bit without buffing aim assit is to let us choose different imput curves for building, ads and non-ads sens. Since expo is better for ads, tracking and long range taps, linear is way better for building/editing, and both can be used for non-ads (linear might be better tho), being able to have expo ads and linear for non-ads and building/editing could be really helpful for lots of controller players.

[@YoCreedgg]

[@ababababababan]

That's a really good idea

[@fingerthrowsonbrig]

You can turn linear into expo sens using boosts and timers, everything you mentioned already exists

[@elmegacaballerov3530]

@@fingerthrowsonbrig Nah it's not the same, not even close. I've tried it already a lot of times and its not the same, as the boost only adds speed when you move your right stick near its limit, which means it only adds speed to your sens when its reaching its max (it doesnt affect the 0-90% of the stick path, it increases your sens past that 90%) so it doesnt allow you to make those microajustements while aiming that expo do and have that very slow movements at first that start ramping up like an e^-x math function the more you move your stick.There is a reason why a lot of pros think expo is way better for ads tracking but still use linear and don't use boosts. It's just very inconsistent, and not near as smooth and predecible as expo(Sorry if i didn't explain it well, I'm Spanish)

Controllers will never be as good as KBM for one major reason. Pure mechanics, the thumb is not as fast, nor accurate, nor in control, with the extensor flexor muscles of the forearms. The other reasons are consumer grade joystick is not as accurate as lasers, which mice rely on. Optical switches, the best keyboard buttons, are also far superior to clunky spring loaded controller buttons. Pixel control, which is what skill is measured in, is far smaller in a joystick than a mouse. Aim assist is literally a cheat. Epic loves you controller players. Because people like me with over 10,000 hours in CS despise you hackers with soft aim and aim assist and it requires 1% of the effort time and stress we had to put in. Epic loves you so much that they don't allow us PC players to queue alone and not bother with your hacks. I mean I plug a controller in and just beam people effortlessly. It's disgusting. I will never respect any champion with a controller and just view it as lowering the skill ceiling to appease some low skill low intellect whiners. If Epic didn't love controller players they would allow PC players to play with themselves. Watch how many pros wouldn't want to play with them. Imagine a game like CS:GO back then have controller players "dominating" while crying they can't perform because of aim assist not working due to a scope or jetpack or whatever. It's a cheat, if you want to play competitive, turn off aim assist. And play with other controller players. As a professional in any realm, I don't want to deal with people that never achieved their mechanical skill.

All Fortnite needs to do for controller is add different edit styles and edit it from a single button for controllers like controller players should be able to do pe it butter edits with just the press of a button then it’ll maybe keep up with pc that way they can line their shots

[@Methfrfr]

Pc: 1000fps 0ping insane refresh rate tons of buttons whole arm to aim more in game settings Console: aim assit

Started playing pc and I’m telling my you it’s 10x easier after a week

[@ronidelgadoneves1985]

Have you guys just forgot King Reet????

[@sinatraoce5339]

Exactly bro was dominating in s4 ch2

[@mikethestoner]

My aim is so bad coming back it's actually insane 😂

[@cohen1x]

Well well. ViciousJosue, that’s a name I haven’t heard in a while

I started off playing on switch during the vibes season,on switch due to the generous FPS cap of 30 that isn’t very consistent. I used the Gyro controls and honestly they felt so smooth and after switching to the PS five and seeing the vast difference in Gyro controls from what Nintendo has compared with the PS five,it’s kind of sad because honestly if they gave a good Gyro update for ps and Xbox I truly believe controller will be almost better then if not equal to mouse

kbm has always been seen as the superior input in most esports. I don't find it weird majority of people in esports play kbm

[@ovalfps]

Not in apex :/

[@brooklyn8745]

@@ovalfps yeah I guess

[@ovalfps]

@@brooklyn8745 apex is mostly controller players in proleague now.

[@brooklyn8745]

@@ovalfps yeah I know. I play apex and it feels better on controller

[@alinaperniu7131]

You can play zero build with the controller

[@Ffhdffffffefffffffffffffffffff]

Nah really?

[@FORTNITESTARS-J]

I’m sorry to say, but I’ve mastered the controller just like any other player plays on PC! When people ask me, do you play on keyboard? I say no they get very surprised.

[@Methfrfr]

Make Aim Assist Great Again

[@Ainpy]

😂😂 use your thumbs then

[@Methfrfr]

@@Ainpy i do i can even do triple edits

[@Ainpy]

@@Methfrfr there you go that’s all you need

[@tgkmervin5998]

​@randomguyrick you can lower aimed in sense and keep higher sense for when not aiming

[@Methfrfr]

@@tgkmervin5998 ik that and i have it like that i just want actual aim assist in the game maybe not as strong as something like apex but something that actually helps

[@freshmoney899]

I don’t have virgin fingers kbm too hard and feels uncomfortable

[@campersruincod6134]

I’m glad L1 spam was gone. Ruined the controller skillgap.

[@Jack-f5o]

For controller it’s impossible to play because aim assist is so bad so you are just slower and now worse at aiming

[@fozy2349]

This video was eye opening. They need to give console players the option to play against each other. Im going to start looking for other games because of this.

[@prestige934]

And why would they do that? If I play on a crappy laptop with less than 30 FPS then do I deserve a separate playlist too?

[@micckeymol4396]

Mixed inputs makes no sense and eliminates any level playing field.

the comp players being 85% of any tournery is straight cap
