V.2.1.0 PATCH NOTES: COZY CAMPFIRE

 

By The Fortnite Team

---

Patch V.2.1.0 is planned to release January 10.

Happy New Year!

We know you have all been asking for bug fixes over the holiday season, and we are here to deliver. We’ve patched up a number of issues across Battle Royale and Save the World and made a number of quality of life improvements in this patch.

Cozy Campfire

It’s cold outside! Gather around the fire with friends and heal up before your next battle. This healing trap must be placed on a floor and persists for 25 seconds.

• Heals 2 HP per second
• Blue rarity
• Can be found anywhere

NVIDIA ShadowPlay Highlights

Introducing ShadowPlay Highlights from NVIDIA! No longer will your friends have to “take your word” when you tell them about that mountain sliding snipe headshot. ShadowPlay will save plays automatically by default. You are also able to manually configure which plays get saved and customize it to fit your style. NVIDIA ShadowPlay Highlights is supported for all PC gamers using GeForce GTX 650 and above graphics cards.

To celebrate the launch of ShadowPlay Highlights, we are hosting a contest with a grand prize of four GTX 1070 graphics cards! Jump over to the ShadowPlay Highlights blog for more info on the contest and new features.

PATCH NOTES - BATTLE ROYALE

WEAPONS

• The Boogie Bomb dance effect is now removed upon taking any damage. We will continue to monitor and iterate on this item’s functionality.
• Changed the Boogie Bomb rarity to blue/rare to more accurately represent its true rarity.

GAMEPLAY

• Fixed an issue which caused players to pass through their recently built and edited structures.
• Fixed an issue which allowed sniper bullets to pass through players without applying any damage.
• Fixed an animation issue caused by entering the DBNO state while in the air.

AUDIO

• Increased the audible range of enemy footsteps, as well as their overall volume.
  • We're aware of an issue causing footsteps to sometimes play at irregular intervals when offscreen. We’re working on a fix now, expect it next update.
• Enemy footsteps are easier to hear when performing certain actions such as building, shooting, or collecting resources.
• Fixed an issue which caused sniper bullet impact sounds to trigger more than once per shot.
• Fixed the phantom bullet sounds that are sometimes heard throughout a match.
• Adjusted the volume of the AC/DC Pickaxe.
• Reduced the volume of the drone that teleports player out of each match.

UI

• Fixed an issue which caused the "Push to Talk" setting to disappear from the Battle Royale settings when restoring default settings in Save the World.
• Shortened a few Daily Challenge descriptions which would run off the screen in a few languages.
• Daily challenge rewards are automatically collected if another challenge is completed in the same category.
  • For instance, if you complete a Battle Pass daily challenge but do not “collect” the reward, the reward will automatically be collected upon completing the next Battle Pass daily challenge.

GENERAL

• Fortnite Battle Royale now supports NVIDIA ShadowPlay highlights on PC.
• Fixed a rare Battle Royale server crash.

Fixed an issue which allowed sniper bullets to pass through players without applying any damage.

Good to know they were working all along. [emoji52]

Only if they could ban team killers upon report would be great. Otherwise, great work.

Waiting for the new weapons and map patch. [emoji4][emoji4]

Anyone used the campfire yet? If so, is it any good?

Personally, unless you are a campy squad I can't see it being anywhere near as good as taking a slot in replace of a med kit, bandages or shield juices.

It's good for squads if you are recovering from a heavy fight and only have bandages. It'll top off health to 100
