LIMITED TIME MODE: DISCO DOMINANCE

overview

Fortnite - save the world

MISSIONS AND SYSTEMS

• Strength level restrictions
  • The minimum strength level requirements for missions are now enforced according to the group's privacy settings.
    • If you set your game to “Public”, the lowest strength level in the group (group boosts are ignored) determines which missions are available to you and which are blocked.
    • If you set your game to “Private” or “Only friends”, the personal strength level of the group leader will be used instead.
  • This is to prevent players with a low level of strength from participating in high-level missions in public matches, in which they can hardly support the group. At the same time, however, we want to enable friends to experience high-level content together if they so choose.
  • All Plankerton missions now have a minimum personal strength level requirement.
  • All Storm Shield Defense Missions in Plankerton and beyond now have a minimum personal strength level requirement.

• The reward points for missions have been adjusted according to the average duration and difficulty of the mission type.
  • As a result, the high-level “treasure chests” at the end of missions are harder to reach for some types of missions, especially if no bonus objectives have been completed.
  • To compensate for this, we've increased the rewards per point, which means that players will now receive more rewards for most types of missions.

Bug fixes

• The "Portraits of Somebody Special" job now uses the correct zone difficulty.
• Models that should be invisible are no longer displayed in the game.
• Mega alarms now have the option of applying the natural element modifier.
• Fixed an issue where the rewards were incorrectly capped for some types of missions.
  • This problem has resulted in many optional objectives increasing the level of the “Treasure Chest” at the end of the mission without adjusting the actual rewards it contains.

PERFORMANCE

• Selecting a defender for a defensive field no longer causes a jerk on the first attempt.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a crash issue caused by projectiles when loading a zone.
• Fixed a crash issue on Xbox caused by the particle systems.

HEROES

Bug fixes

• The trail of "Dragon's Tail" is now visible.
• For "One in Each Hand" the camera has been adjusted so that the perspective matches with similar weapons.
• The Hammer Critical Hit Chance support unit bonuses are now properly displayed in the weapon tooltip.
• Fixed an issue where players would get stuck when hitting a Crusher or Bulky Ruckus Shell with Bull Storm.

WEAPONS AND ITEMS

• The Rat King assault rifle has been added to the weekly shop.
  • A semi-automatic shotgun that fires massive bullets. Effective rifle for medium distances with a low rate of fire.
  • Available from Thursday, October 18 at 2:00 a.m. EDT through Thursday, October 25 at 2:00 a.m. EDT.
• The Gravedigger Assault Rifle has been re-added to the weekly shop.
  • A creepy assault rifle that fires medium ammunition. Its high damage and impact are offset by poor accuracy and rate of fire.
  • Available from Thursday, October 18 at 2:00 a.m. EDT through Thursday, October 25 at 2:00 a.m. EDT.
• Duplicate avoidance has been added for mythical survivor leaders.
  • If you get a mythical survivor leader in a llama, you will automatically get one that is not yet in your inventory or collection.
  • If you already have all of the survivors' mythical leaders, then you will be given a random one.
  • Note that if you choose between two mythical leaders in a lama, you will only get one type of leader. This will allow you to get a duplicate if you already own all the mythical leaders of this species.
• Player jumping surfaces no longer take up space in the weapons store.

Bug fixes

• The following weapons now have the correct crafting times:
  • HackSAW
  • lynx
  • mortician undertaker
  • Earthshaker
  • 45 whispers
  • Silenced Specter
  • Specter
  • Quadruple thrower
• Attacks with the motor hammer are now carried out with the attack button pressed.

GAMEPLAY

• We introduced a new type of Mission Alert: Beta Storms!
  • You can test all sorts of new content in Beta Storms. This gives us the opportunity to find out from you what you think of new content and experimental ideas.
  • Beta storms are mission alarms for a limited time. They only remain available for about a week or two before disappearing again.
  • This week there is the beta storm for the mission "data acquisition" including a series of orders with increasing rewards for trying out the beta storm.
    • In this new version of Data Collection, you are under pressure as the storm approaches the balloon landing pad. The storm will damage you and limit the fighting to a smaller area in which you have to defend the data. The mission lasts 20 minutes, and you will only receive the maximum amount of rewards if you shoot the balloon immediately as soon as this is allowed.
    • This beta storm will end with the arrival of version 6.20, so stop by while you can.

Bug fixes

• Player character models no longer remain in play when exiting a mission if they were knocked down.
• Players no longer lose the ability to use melee heavy attacks and other abilities after respawning.
• Fixed an issue where the Thresher's jump attack would not target the Bulky Riot hull.
• Bulky riot covers now trigger traps.
• The audio signals when collecting ammunition / resources are no longer played if fragment shards are collected or certain skills are used.

• The sound effects for electric shock tower impacts and shock wave triggered abilities have been updated.

Bug fixes

• Fixed an issue where the music would change when players received rewards in the main menu.
• Fixed an audio issue where Teddy's voiceover would play twice.
• Fixed an issue where teleport sound effects would not play when exiting a mission.
• Fixed an audio issue where Major Threat music would not stop after all enemies were destroyed.
