Get some good headphones and higher your volume in your settings and on your headphones. Also when someone is high up in the air you can’t see any visual sound affects. Just be careful when you’re rotating and always look around and slightly up. Check trees and bushes and be careful when going into buildings because there will be rats. Other than that, great video, Evolve Jake!

headphones with good clarity and frequency response are essential for hearing things clearly without having to destroy your eardrums with high volume
@illlllsmoke3 ай бұрын
Agreed. Decent headphones with the atmos app helps a ton too. The first 3 bands, turn them way up and it makes footsteps much easier to hear, down side is you have to get used to the increased base the guns make and it takes time to adjust

Personally I reduced the ui size a long time ago because I found myself looking at my inventory or hp too often. By making it smaller, I made it less convenient to look at it, in an attempt to keep my focus on the game instead. It's worked I think for the most part. I never changed it back so I'd say it's fine.

The only problem I found with decreasing my hud size too much is my teammates nametags end up in weird places and it's harder to keep track of them

Yeah, the looking at the floor thing ive noticed a lot of people who are new to gaming do, like not just with shooters but with any game really. I guess they feel they should have the center of their screen on what they are paying attention to, and that's the ground beneath them. Otherwise yeah I think i do most of the things you mentioned in the vid, except differentiating the different sound effects for various things should try to pay attention to that. And something that you didn't mention but I'm always impressed by it when watching you is keeping an eye on the kill feed. Knowing which players are getting a buncha kills and stuff like that. A couple times I've thought to myself "ok now ill pay really good attention to it" and then i get distracted by whats happening in game and never look at the killfeed again. XD

when I first started playing, it took me awhile to figure out that I was just looking at the ground in front of me and not the whole view. that was a game changer and so simple
@pmuttenthaler2 ай бұрын
I think looking at the ground is a psychological thing for newer players to simply get acquainted with the terrain that they're traversing and memorizing the landscape layout. Over time when people know where they're stepping they start looking up more. At least that's what I've noticed for myself lol

I think also watching a lot of streams to see what streamers do to pay attention and when to put more focus into the game.

So I shouldn't be listening to this video while playing Fortnite... You could have started off with that tip. LOL. I think the thing that helped my awareness the most was just learning to look up instead of always focusing on the ground looking for loot. Also after I kill someone I don't immediately go for loot, I tend to step away, get behind cover and frantically look around for the third party while seeing loot with my peripheral vision before going to the loot pile.

I reckon a solid 80% plus of the AI im coming across right now splash themselves with nitro, then crouch and move from side to side while shooting. If you see someone splash nitro then crouch, chances are its an AI and you can ignore until you know the area is safe from real players

Signals you are likely facing ai: 1. enemy crouch walking out in the open. 2. Lots of shots from two or more people for a really long time. They're probably trying to kill each other but can't hit a shot. 3. Someone pickaxing a random wall in zero build. Often an ai. 4. Using the nitro item (not fists). When you get near them this season, they'll often nitro. 5. Late drop. Not always, but sometimes this is an indication of ai. They typically have less than optimal drops. 6. Running with their pickaxe out. They'll do this from time to time. 7. Knowing typical bot locations. There are spots that typically will have bots on the map. Knowing this will help you predict a bot is there without even seeing them.

When I first started playing Fortnite in chapter 4 I didn't know about visual audio. Once I found out about it the game got a little bit less fun because I didn't have to listen for people running around me. Now the game just told me whenever people are near me. I wish there was a mode where nobody had access to it.
