Fortnite – 15.30 Patch Notes | HANDS-FREE !

GAME OVER HIGHLIGHTS

With the new End Game device, you can now choose who the winners and losers are at the touch of a button (or anything else that can transmit a signal). There will always be winners and losers.

ATTIRE TO IMPRESS

With the Phone Booth gadget, allow your gamers to switch things up whenever they want. Everyone may now change their appearance for any occasion thanks to the same quick change capabilities found in Party Royale.

TACTICAL ACTION SHOTGUN

Fortnite’s newest shotgun is currently available in Creative mode. To keep up with the season’s loot pool, use the Lever Action Shotgun in your game.

HANDS-FREE

You can choose whether or not players can bring a pickaxe to a battle with the new Start With Pickaxe island setting!

WHAT ELSE IS NEW AT 15.30!

Here’s a rundown of everything else arriving in the latest patch.

GAMEPLAY

  • Added the Start With Pickaxe option to My Island settings.
    • This allows the player pickaxe to be disabled, letting players run around empty-handed in a similar fashion to Party Royale.
    • Other inventory slots remain unaffected by this option.
  • Any published island which contains a Matchmaking portal pointing to an island that is owned by another player will be forced to Autostart: Immediate.
    • This change is designed to remove the incentive for some creators to publish hubs full of other creators content and then force players to sit at the pre-game screen to try and get them to use the Support a Creator option on that screen to support them rather than the creators of the hosted content.

GAMEPLAY BUG FIXES

  • Fixed an issue where Billboard text was staying hidden after being triggered to be active or staying active when triggered to be hidden.
  • Fixed an issue where Matchmaking Portal UI and settings would not update until the island code was changed.

DEVICES

  • Added the End Game Device.
    • This device allows creators to end the game or round immediately using channels, as well as dynamically set the winner and display custom callouts.
    • The device has the following options:
      • What to End: End Game, End Round (Default: End Game).
      • Winning Team: Winning Team, Activating Team, 1-16 (Default: Winning Team) – ‘Winning Team’ awards the victory to whichever team is currently ahead according to the standard win conditions set in My Island settings.
      • Custom Victory Callout: Text Field (80 character limit).
      • Custom Defeat Callout:Text Field (80 character limit).
      • Enabled at Game Start: Enabled, Disabled (Default: Enabled).
      • Activating Team: Any, 1-16 (Default: Any).

      • Enable When Receiving From: No Channel, 1-150 (Default: No Channel).
      • Disable When Receiving From: No Channel, 1-150 (Default: No Channel).
  • Added a new Player Checkpoint device.
    • This new version of the Player Checkpoint is placed as a prop rather than a trap and can be freely placed, rotated, copied and pasted.
    • All existing functionality from the original Player Checkpoint device has been retained in the new device.
    • The new Player Checkpoint also has a player hologram to make it simple to see the direction of spawn.
    • The old Player Checkpoint device has been renamed to Player Checkpoint Plate and will remain available in the device gallery for a period of time.
  • Added the Phone Booth device.
    • The Phone Booth allows players to change their Outfits and accessories during games using the same interface as the one found in Party Royale.

  • Fixed an issue where Creatures clipped into the cars and would not attack the cars when players were standing on top of the car.
