Liar ahead

[@XPproductions365]

I always found it weird that they never added it to creative mode, that mode isn’t competitive so it being op wouldn’t have mattered. I guess it being completely removed explains it (what a shame).

[@Clypeus_]

I was thinking the same thing, people could have made really cool maps with it. Well technically there was a way to get it but it was a bug. You had grab a preset and continuously open the chest and it had a chance of dropping

[@SylviaYSI]

Technically speaking, it was in creative due to one of the prefabs having a chest in it by accident, and the chest dropped the guided missile on occasion. So it was still in the game, just not for long enough unfortunately…

[@hierotakels3835]

Guided missile was so fun to mess around with it’s my favorite weapon to this day but I haven’t got to use it since it got vaulted 🤷‍♂️

[@sonicrunn3r895]

I 100% believe the bugs the Guided Missile had were the sole reason this thing got completely deleted. Nearly every update gave this thing new issues and I think Epic just didn’t want to deal with that anymore, given they'd have to keep tabs on legacy weapons in Creative eventually. But to all of you who maybe never got the chance to experience such glorious bugs, allow me to recount them off the top of my head as an OG: - The rocket could come out in the complete wrong direction when fired, disorienting you or outright blowing you up if you tried to use it in an enclosed space (say, a box with a window). - The rocket's turning speed when using a controller was…nearly nonexistent (popped up after the Season 5 revision). This was eventually fixed but this gave a MASSIVE advantage to KB&M with it when it wasn’t. - A multitude of desync issues like “causing the missile to disappear on your screen but still have control”, “takes several seconds for it to register being destroyed by an enemy and send you back” and even “the rocket will sometimes deal no damage”. Yeahhhhh…I love this thing but they'd need to rewrite the code from the ground up to fix it. And even then, I don’t know if Epic wants to

[@Lumiiify]

You'd think with all the crazy stuff they've added over the years it would've seen a return, but nope Even the zapatron loosely came back through the railgun, essentially functioning the exact same Miss messing with this lul

[@GrammyNorma.]

2:30 actually, the wiki is wrong about that one. The wiki SAYS it was somewhat added back in the last update of ch 3 season 3 But it was ACTUALLY added in the first update of ch 3 season 4 And it wasnt just a couple of files oh no. It was ALL of its files. Including some updated sounds that weren't in the original one. And now they updated its sounds AGAIN at the start of this season to include new sounds in a folder called "Unvault" under the guided missile folder So we all thought the .10 update would bring it bacl but nope This weapon truely is an enigma

[@TheRageBaiter]

I just found this channel and I'm in love because most fortnite channels are loud and directed at kids but this mellow channel that's talking about history is very nice I hope you get some more recognition because you deserve it❤️

[@jordan_rembe]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I belive you're correct regarding the assumption that the weapon was removed due to the issues with its code, I believe I also heard somewhere that it was putting to much of a strain on the engine, hence its toltal removal from the game, though that was years ago so I'm really not too sure about the legitimacy of that rumor.

[@SylviaYSI]

I couldn’t find anything regarding that, but it wouldn’t really surprise me if that were the case. This weapon was buggy even for Chapter 1 standards, so if that was the case then it wouldn’t be shocking

[@wimpy3356]

I remember when it dropped I was playing with a friend, got it at risky, took it to the west of wailing woods, we tried rocketriding with it. truly a epic time to play fourth Knight

[@jinxyjangle]

I do really miss this weapon.

[@Daniel-yz5qj]

My favorite weapon of all time, it will always be the king of rocket riding for me, even over the pumpkin rpg

[@usbarhoom7058]

Me too 😢

[@frostwing1899]

did you see the guided missile is back in the files and fully functional

[@Klombo114]

It could have been re-added in chapter 3 for the anvil launcher

[@zachbernstein3804]

If they have the coding capability to do it now, I don't see why we can't get it back in the new CH1 permanent OG. Also in Creative mode, I would love to f around with it some more.

[@Ericman100]

There's some things to suggest it may have a slight chance of returning during Fortnite OG..

[@Fnafan97]

As of Chapter 6 Season 1, the Guided Missile has been fully re-added to the game files!

[@demorunnertimmedrt4432]

And you proceed to not mention rocket riding.

[@Mrr_dj]

Theory #1 is definitely true otherwise it’d at least be in creative 😂

[@grung8864]

I remember this in season 5, messed around with it in creative

[@eyebol]

the machine smg came out for a whole season

[@Ze_Carrot]

Everyone remembers this too and it was out for a month

[@kolkagaming1234]

Why didn’t they put the Guided Missile in creative mode a long time ago

[@uxie08]

Is that a "Tubular Trash Zone" I hear 👀?

[@SylviaYSI]

It’s mandatory that I include at least one Pizza Tower song in my videos at this point

[@Fuji606]

So it’s not an owl? 1:09

[@Browncoat7969]

I uses to love that weapon alot during chapter one

[@usbarhoom7058]

I still do

[@Conner-n1w]

I first played fortnight the day before it was valued for the last time

[@heckerhecker8246]

using creative 2.0 and uefn, is it possible to extract the guided missile from some old version or something, and re add it?

[@francescocapano9824]

dude i'm trying to find out how to do it

[@therpderp]

just having that knowledge that you're around my age, i should have expected fortnite. im here for it.

[@SylviaYSI]

You’d honestly be shocked about my history with this game. Used to play competitive and everything, I was addicted to Fortnite for a long time before I started making PVZ videos 😭

[@therpderp]

@@SylviaYSI holy shit, that's awesome. i didn't play comp but i did basically live fortnite for a short time aswell. now that i think of it, your name does sound familiar...

[@sparklesparkle3370]

Great stuff

[@Walid-mk4jo]

Hey why don't you try doing another pvz 2 challenge? Maybe this time you can try beating the game with only explosive plants?

[@alisaid_28]

😅😅😅😅😅😅
