Everything You Need To Know About Fortnite v31.30 Update (Fortnite Patch Notes)

[@medic0566]

I’m in my mid 40’s and started playing Fortnite a couple months ago with my 2 daughters. We have an extra room with 3 screens and 3 Xbox’s and it has been incredible bonding. We even have a few wins on Trios!! Thank you for making content that I can watch with them. So many streamers curse every other word and I don’t want them hearing that since they are both in elementary school. We always watch your update videos to get in the loop and we watch your gameplay and I pause it and explain how you constantly keep moving and try to explain your tactics…I certainly can’t do it myself!! Anyway, from a Dad…thanks for keeping it family friendly.

[@EvolveJake]

Glad you like the videos and I love hearing that they have helped you bond over the game with your daughters. I don't curse in KZbin videos but just as a warning I do when I stream on Twitch. Those words are in my vocabulary so it comes out over the course of talking for hours but I dont in videos cause recordings are more intentional in terms of what I say and not just like hanging out. Just thought I should warn you 😂

[@KUSHTWENTYz]

Most wholesome comment I've read on KZbin today.

[@wineaddict6625]

​@@EvolveJakedo a collab with nick eh 30 😂

[@StingrayMk1]

Go, dads! Me too. Playing with my three kids since mid 2022; Vibin' season! ♥️ I have got sooo much better, with Jake's help! But I'm still not as good as my kids, they are CRACKED.

[@andreaerdely1736]

Also, am mom. Not dad. But similar vibes.

[@Dee_Money_Raw]

This season was fun for a while but now I’m tired of all the mythics. I’ve been playing reload a whole lot recently.

[@michaeldc951]

Agreed. I feel like I have to find iron man gauntlets and a hover pack to play. Miss having more variety in my loadout

[@HowThatHappen]

I feel like lately the mythics have been ruining the seasons, or at least making them significantly less enjoyable.

[@Ligmaballzallthetime]

​@@HowThatHappenyep, they are too accessible. They are all over the map. They even make bunkers and the loot island pretty redundant

[@Zachosaursrex]

[@santiagodunbar2381]

I’m Tired of the jet pack tbh

[@robertomoya4502]

Shuri jet pack dash was probably taken out because players would be able to fly super high

[@HowThatHappen]

Had one player a few weeks ago use boots, shiri, and jetpack and literally could stay in the air forever.

[@luisambriz3028]

I did that to catch up to a guy using the ballons and killed him with a shotgun 💀

[@brendanshinn4405]

I would suspect this guy using aimbot if I encountered him

[@tmoney1487]

The season of nerfs. Epic seems like they were so confused on which part of the player base they wanted to please this season that it led to pretty much no one having fun.

[@likeaboss3160]

It has become shotgun simulator again

[@tmoney1487]

​​@@likeaboss3160 Im more or less wondering why theyre so concerned with still nerfing stuff when there's only a month left in the chapter. At this point just let people enjoy the game how they wanna enjoy it bruh, quit nerfing anything and everything people use that arent guns. Dont create a season not centered around guns then nerf everything that isnt guns like thats how you want people to play. Ever since avatar in season 2 this entire chapter has been a flop.

[@JaimeDuendeDeGongora]

​@@tmoney1487 i feel that most of the recent nerfs are because of the iron man stuff, i have never changed My playstyle as much as in this season, SO i Guess i'm getting shockwaves instead of shuri's again

[@gggz420]

i mean this one of my fave seasons of all time, seems like you guys just like to complain 😂

[@kazawircf7512]

@@gggz420It's because for a lot of better players seasons like this one suck, you can't have a normal gun fight and you have a lot of cheesy items in the loot pool. I don't even play BR at this point, i ended last season with more than 200 crown wins, now i play only reload because there are much better players and you have normal gun fights.

[@wet0wl]

1:32 Yeah I noticed the claw nerfs earlier. Kinda sucks but oh well, back to shockwaves and hover jets I guess lol.

[@KongKaiju]

The Claws got nerfed WTF!? Thanks Jake for the quick update yo! I couldn’t find anyone talking about this. Not even on X which is weird af. Hope everyone stays safe in these insane times happening right now. 💯 prayers to those in the U.S and over seas.

[@AshtonnnM]

Epic higher ups really in the meeting worried about nerfing green water. 😂😂 Not when the Cerebrus medallion existed, but now.

[@Primarycolors128]

Like why just randomly nerf my Mf passive drop????

[@makaelajaewarren6084]

11 mins ago is a new record for me. Thank you, Jake! I entirely rely on you for update information.

[@rodney9651]

I wish they would remove the Ironman gloves tbh. To easy and cheesy. I also wish Epic would take more seriously the fact that there are players who are some how cheating in the game. I don't see sus players a lot but I see it enough for it to be concerning. I wonder if Epic even investigates when someone make a report about a player and something sus?

[@kashbandi7461]

Me too bro. Frick those iron Man gloves.

[@JakeDaaGreat]

Ending with a pickaxe win is a crazy flex

[@UzumakiTaco420]

its like they want us to use the shield bubble and cap shield, rather than use our traditional mobility items during fights. i feel like they’re trynna give out a new playstyle even if we dont like it

[@creepz_fn1]

Damn, jetpack + shuri combo got nerfed as soon as i had mastered it, was wondering why it wasn't working, anyway also been starting to use the pickaxe trick a lot more and the shuri cybertruck trick as well, lowkey i've been taking the shuri a lot more over a jetpack if i only want 1 mobility, great vid Oh, also quick question, do you have an schedule for streaming over on Twitch or is it just a bit inconsistent, might stream tuesday but not tuesday next week etc, hoping to tune in somedsy and start watching them :)

[@IAmPdawg]

In no build, the shotgun/double barrel ability to not have to wait for the cooldown between shotguns is insane. You can instantly delete/be instantly deleted.

[@duckking8507]

Your my favourite fortnite youtuber to watch whenever a new update comes out, such a goated youtuber

[@sjbastro]

I noticed that Tony Stark is now in his Iron Man suit and no longer sells the combat kit. I guess because he's wearing it 😁 Probably connected to the upcoming event.

[@vuyomatu8879]

I’m so happy they finally fixed the Reload mode split screen glitch. It wouldn’t let the second player reboot themselves.

[@bombkangaroo]

Midas is stealing the water to re-flood the season 2 map in this year's OG season. :P

[@EvolveJake]

LMFAO

[@creepz_fn1]

Wait W take 🤣

[@darkaheart]

I love your videos 👍 Simple and straightforward, no sugar coating or bitching

[@sarpsomer]

I am playing more Reload due to constant changes in BR, would be good if the exp you get in Reload wasn't low.

[@santiagodunbar2381]

When they bringing back a sniper/dmr??

[@aguillen300]

Today I captured Dr. Doom island but he didnt have a helmet and you can see his face. He was black 😂 Has this happend to anyone?

[@shasahumphries4655]

I noticed you can see his skin is black when you check the character skin in your locker… Jonathan majors Kang variant confirmed lol

[@Deadpool....]

yea because secretly its MF DOOM🤣

[@Deadpool....]

@@aguillen300 you right homie my fault 🫱🏻‍🫲🏼

[@joseespinoza9913]

@@Deadpool....😂😂 I’m pissed epic didn’t do anything related MF DOOM with DOOM being the main focus this season. RIP MF DOOM

[@JayHosh]

I’m starting to think some rogue AI is in charge of balancing items this is worse than last season

[@OKGJedi]

W Jake. Thanks for the quick updates.

[@peasknees7516]

ive always used shuri claws to escape from auto turrets. i cant believe they nerfed those instead of doing something about these auto aim items being combined

[@PlanetBongoSan]

Thanks for keeping us infotained, Jake!

[@JaimeDuendeDeGongora]

The doombots nerf was necessary, my main drop is the raft and sometimes you get a lot of downed bots everywere getting in the way while fighting to real players, also you couldnt pick up things because of them being near the objects.

[@iancremmins4727]

thanks for the info, i havent been able to load the game since the update

[@MutantPurpleOnion]

Mythic Lama finally unlocked. THANK YOU for your videos

[@MrDiceGuy]

I actually lost to the claw + jetpack nerf earlier today. Was spamming it over 20 times and thought I was just out of stamina.

[@donrohweller4094]

Thx for update. I noticed a sleep mode added to menu lobby exit. I think this is new.

[@markgalamiton391]

There was also a glitch that was (I noticed) got patched here in this update when you can still fly with your hover jet after you enter a rift from a rift island/doom island. This tip was (from what I heard) was from Nick Eh 30 on his "how to get doom videos" on his channel. This is now patched I guess so when you enter a rift, you will just skydive/glide when you try it instead of still flying with the hoverjet.

[@captaincommando3430]

Emp might be more relevant now with all the tech based items, I really wished they added custom on the dual smgs, don't wanna play the meta or with broken items but more so explore the potential of other play styles. Oh well, potential smg spray gameplay is coming soon to look forward to next season. Plus teleport, mine, dash, and gravity fish. Should be fun. We'll see wat sticks like how they brought back some things cause fn og.

[@tedlava]

Thanks for video! Looks like Hoverjets and Shockwaves are the way to go now!

[@Xx420KingxX]

Fortnite water got nerfed before gta 6

[@JDXOGG]

I can’t even play the big map anymore. Hoping for season 6 to have hit scan. Then I’ll play

[@raptor8265]

I noticed the claws and underworld dashes felt off today…good to know.

[@elc6603]

I was just starting to get used to the Shuri claws hover jets

[@Incog_Nico]

Hmm, I wonder if Shuri’s claws still work against the Cybertruck? 🤔 Will have to test. There’s now an “energy saving” sleep mode we can activate. Unnecessary, imo, but some may welcome it.

[@Rabsmyth91]

The only place to come for updates!

[@baltoandtogo]

I'm glad the guards disappear now. They were supposed to be revivable and they'd become hired NPCs. At least that's what they announced at the beginning of the season. I think it broke after like one day, though, so might as well get rid of them.

[@espiritucallejero9127]

Been playing since the beginning of zero builds in chapter 3, and this has been the least fun chapter for me personally. The jungle biome chapter got a lot of flack but honestly miss it more compared to its current iteration. Too many gimmicks with the mythics. I don’t hate it but idk just feels very different compared to prior seasons.

[@kcjay1986]

Pickaxe trick for the dub was pretty lit though

[@trishroscoe8273]

Thanks for the update!

[@betancouurt7376]

Whatever happened to the second chance given to the doom bots? And why is there an achievement for completing it if it’s not available

[@DoubustuNoSekai]

This season is Cheeks, just like chapter 2 season 4 was. MARVEL SEASONS SUCK

[@sureitsjon7803]

Jake gets straight to the point!! Use code evolvejake!!

[@noumanlamari3797]

TMNT sick pickaxes will come to the shop 👍

[@Noone-xf9cm]

Lol people will be upset they nerfed the claws to not allow for a movement exploit that clearly was never meant to be there…

[@brandonmartinez7754]

Where they put the sleep mode is so dumb

[@MrEL_zxy]

Me watching this as I’m downloading the update

[@sirdirte1855]

not a nerf to the claws, they just shouldn't have ever worked that way.

[@Splatz007]

Will het rocket riding back in 2 weeks so. . . More mobility is on the way. Havent you guys fitured it out yet? Epuc nerfs one mobility then brings in another one an then just repeats the process. Hover jets gets nerfed ( 1srt time): enter shutis claws Hover jets gets nerfed again: shuris claws gets a buff. Hover jets gets neffed a 3rd time: enter iron man flight kit. Shuris claws gets nerfed: enter the grenade launcher an rocket riding. If an were getting witches brooms back too..

[@Niaaal]

First game after this update and I get destroyed by nerfed Shuri claws 😢

[@thegooldash2443]

im sorry but the only way you are concerned about the nerfs to hyper mobility is if you are terrible at the game and the only way you can win is by abusing a mechanic that wasn't meant to be the superpowers are still broken and fun, my main loadout in pubs doesn't even involve a shotgun, if the only way you can enjoy an item is when they are straight up broken and not functioning as intended then you should consider just playing something else

[@sbjr5504]

Damn, you guys are quick! Lol

[@jeffburnett2392]

There's no rocket racing quests?

[@Noone-xf9cm]

Love hearing “this is a minor update” while my Xbox Series X is taking an hour to update the game for some reason. Says 79.75 GB..

[@hikikomicklori9290]

I would not call the change to Shuri Claws being spammed by using the Hover Jets a NERF, more likely a fix.

[@_Turtle_420]

No not a nerf at all. Just like the green water dash isn't a nerf too it's a fix right? Epic meat riders need to bite the dust already.

[@glubgub]

Insane amount of nerfs this season

[@ParrisCrockett]

thank you jake

[@GibbyGuyGo]

Only Epic will nerf something 7 months later 😂

[@m1gu3lmusic]

IMA CALL IT. the reason there is no water is because the heroes are going to use the water to defeat doctor doom. thats why there is no water because they used a machine to put it at. if you watched the fantastic four movie you would understand what i am trying to say. what im guesing whats going to happen is they are going to turn doctor doom into a statue

[@Sourheart]

At this point I'm just waiting for the Fortnitemares update tbh

[@ducmthai]

Looked like they hate your style of playing so they nerfed the claws. Sad.

[@notsunnyyyy]

ayeee im sonearly

[@MarianzYT]

This update is ass but at least the next one will be kinda good if they bring that new halloween biome

[@collieallover]

How does he have that purple doom umbrella??

[@BushCampButcher]

You have to get 50 points in a tournament/cup, if I recall correctly, which is really not that tough. It's called the Ranker's Doom Brella and has Edit Styles for your Rank.

THEY DIDNT EVEN NEED TO NERF ANYTHING WHAT THE HELL IS EPIC DOING

[@CodySergent34]

I come here to find out if everything is still cheese. Back to reload it is

[@barmenenziobatjies1290]

I swear there were two Auto AR in the game and the other one just disappeared 🤣 and Jake don’t put on a scope on your Striker AR and I hit most 17/25 bullets. Someone who aims as good as you will melt opponents 🤞🏾🫶🏽
