This may be common knowledge, or it may not, but now that you can free fall until you hit the ground except for a couple of seconds after your umbrella automatically deploys, it can speed up your game to just free fall into water if something you need is close by for quests, or if you want to hit a rivalry board quickly.
This has happened to me a few times yesterday and today. I don't recall if I had the jetpack each time, but when I use the jump pad now, my glider will not deploy. I try to deploy it the second my feet leave the pad. When it happened yesterday, it didn't affect my HP, but not so much tonight. Oh, and this is the newly minted Zero Build 2.0 update if you couldn't tell.
Could I have pushed sooner and not ended up in a tiny ass room... sure. But after too many losses on my quest to get the second rivalry 'brella I really wanted to pull a win out. Cleveland almost had me with those gloves, but not today! Now back to some nonsense 'cause I like the blue grandmaster 'brella.
I recently asked if I was the fastest 39 year old Fortnite player . Then I bought this glass mouse pad ... And got way faster.

PC had been bugging up for the past week, hard drive crapped on me, bought a new one, installed Win 11, that was my error, got the dreaded update issue of Windows freezing after an update and had to re-format the Nvmie Drive and install Win 10.
Back to playing Fortnite, had a slight hiccup with my Nvidia recording (that I have now fixed). Anyways, I probably wouldn't have won if my opponent hadn't decided to box up rather than buildfight (not that I am any good at buildfighting myself, for that matter). I am going to get questions on my loadout. Sorry, this is an Nvidia recording of a not-saved gameplay clip.
I didn't anticipate the win, so sharing as is.
Why are there squad quests in solo??
I might be too old to understand why some people play the way they do, but I play team games with the same attitude as I live my life, mostly. If it isn't mine, I don't take it. if it is mine, I expected the same in return. That being said, I had a few different types of experiences related to this concept that I found annoying.
If you eliminate a player, the loot is rightfully yours. I don't run up and start grabbing things until you indicate you've got everything you wanted, or you run off and leave it behind.
Same with loot chests. If you open it, the contents are yours.
In a recent trios match, I had just landed and was trying to arm myself. I had landed at a pond with legendary loot and I was fishing for it. As soon as I landed the catch, my teammate ran up and grabbed it before I could.
In another match, I ran up to a chest and opened it. As I was grabbing the contents, a teammate ran up to grab something but I already had gotten everything. He started cussing me out, calling me a b!tch @$$ n!66@ because I grabbed all of the loot.
Am I wrong in thinking these people are not good teammates? Or do I need to adjust my outlook on team play?
