Fortnite is boring but that is the most stupid comment I've heard all day, it's a battle royale game, PUBG didn't make fucking battle royale lol nor did H1Z1 or any Arma mod, it was the movie that originated the idea.

Though those games popularized the gamemode.
so what if they popularized the gamemode? that doesn't mean something copies something else, the idea is there, the others just prove it's worth investing

No one reads replies anymore, if they did they would stop repeating the same shit you say and be constructive. Read my reply please.

The only BR game that I can remember that actually took the game mode and made it unique without blatantly ripping it off was The Culling and Darwins Project. The only other game that copied another game but made it their own was Overwatch copying TF2 and making it completely unique.
Fortnite clearly has a different appeal than PUBG and/or other similar shooters similar to the latter. It has fast paced gameplay, compared to PUBG's slow , """""tactical"""""" gameplay. It's not a copy whatsoever, you can't say a game is a copy if it's using a similar format to deliver a very different experience. Overwatch didn't "rip off" TF2 because on a similar format it delivered a different experience, even though the end goal , when it comes down to it, is the same.

If you can't see that Fortnite literally ripped the PUBG format with some additions then you're beyond stupid. It's like saying Paladins totally didn't rip off a lot of abilities from Overwatch.

That's a terrible comparison, FPS games have many different routes they can go and battle royale is a very limited game-mode when it comes to the base of it, the whole purpose of Fortnite is building and PUBG lacks that, they made their own twist on the battle royale gamemode. Have you ever seen the BR Arma mod btw? Or H1Z1? How did Fortnite rip PUBG when there was a game before it and a mod that were successful doing the same thing?

And before anyone chats shit, I don't even play Fortnite. I used to for a few weeks but got bored of it like all other br games.

The creator of PUBG created the BR Arma mod, and was hired by daybreak to create H1Z1. Both were his works, you would know this if you bothered to read my first reply on the thread. Fortnite ripped the format from all of them.

When did I say he didn't create them all? lol. That's completely besides the point. You're comparing PUBG to Fortnite when the base gamemode is the same, sure. But they're very different types of the battle royale genre when it comes down to it. I don't know why you're saying the word format, it's simply the same genre of game. That's it.

Fortnite took the idea of Battle Royale, and just made an all around better game that isn't clunky, buggy and laggy.

very constructive answer to my reply buddy, thanks!!1!!11

Your own argument collapsed on itself, they don't use a "similar" format they use the exact format.

Bluehole just don't understand that this makes them look like bitches, they're suing them because the game is similar? They're worse than the fucking fine bros wanting to copyright the word "React", they're all the same genre, Fortnite just did it better so Bluehole are salty. There's really not much else to it.

This won't end well for Bluehole, end of.

One thing to take note to is that Fortnite calls it Battle Royale. That itself literally attracts alot of people from Pubg - hence pubg loses money - hence why Pubg wants to sue Fortnite. They also have these legendary items and crap to make the game less serious and more fun - which also steals players.
