The mechs in Fortnite have been quite controversial since their release in Season X and are considered very powerful. A glitch now shows that the robots can be even more dangerous.
What is this glitch? It makes the mech simply stronger, as it becomes significantly more mobile and faster.
This is achieved through the driftboard, which can be placed under the mech by a player and then controlled. The mech therefore hovers on the board and can cause destruction from there.
See here how the mech can ride on the driftboard
This video is available: On Reddit, the user “badlynameduser” shows how the mech can ride on the driftboard:
You can ride your teammates’ drift board if you’re in a big metal boi from r/FortNiteBR
The huge mech looks not only more dangerous on the driftboard but also funny, as the small board is not designed for the giant robot.
What does Epic say about this? The developers of Fortnite have also reacted to this Reddit thread. The community coordinator, Sean Hamilton, commented that the bug has already been passed on to the relevant team.
So it certainly won’t take long before Epic has this glitch under control.
This is the problem with the mechs: Regardless of the bug, mechs have long been a thorn in the side of most players. They are simply too strong, say many Fortnite fans.
The robots can cause immense damage. After all, the mech can not only shoot but also withstand a lot of damage and can destroy entire buildings within seconds.
The call for a nerf has been present since the start of the season. Now Epic has to react and at least remove the glitch with the driftboard. This only makes the mech stronger.
