In Fortnite there is the next uproar among the pros! Epic bans the screen resolution that most pros have been using.
This has been banned: Many pros have changed their screen resolution specifically for Fortnite. This resolution has now been banned for tournaments and the Arena mode.
Epic now stipulates that the width must be 16:9. For the pros who have trained with other resolutions, this means another adjustment.
This means the change for players
Why was the resolution changed at all? Numerous pros have specifically changed their screen resolutions. They hope for a larger hitbox on opponents because the screen is slightly stretched and wider. This means the opponent appears wider.
This has already been a popular method in CS:GO. There, the opponent’s hitbox was also slightly larger.
This has now changed: To ensure no player has an advantage due to a changed screen resolution, Epic is now banning it. In tournaments and the Arena mode, there will now be no other resolutions than 16:9.
What is the problem? Many pros are annoyed by the change. For them, it means a major adjustment, as they have already trained with other resolutions for tournaments.
Streamer Ninja says: “It’s mainly about how they execute everything. They allowed the resolution to be distorted at the last tournament and then a week after the Arena starts, they switch? I practiced with it and now it’s all for nothing. The same goes for any pro player who uses it.”
They now have to readjust again. This is especially troubling now because the qualification for the Fortnite World Cup, where millions of dollars are at stake, starts in just a few days.
This makes it generally difficult: The atmosphere between the pros and Epic is generally tense. Since the Patch 8.20, there have been numerous changes to the normal game mode of Fortnite.
Pros have to switch to the Arena mode for tournament rules. However, they have to wait for suitable lobbies for minutes. This hinders the pros in their training.
Ninja is anyway fed up with Fortnite. He is boycotting the solo mode:
