Guys am I right in saying this:

CROSS PLATFORM - Last night I played with my cousins, I was on the PC and they were on the PS4. It said on the right "Servers: Cross platform". Am I right in saying that on each server is a mix of players, from PC, PS4, and xbox1?

Don't think PS4 is apart of it.

I thought Sony were against cross platform. I must be wrong so.

Not true, I saw Fatal1ty watching phone and console players after he died.

On mobile (iOS), PS4 and Xbox One, Fortnite defaults to matching you with players on the same platform you’re playing on. It will only match you with players on different platforms if you’re in a cross-platform party. (More on that below.)

On PC, Fortnite will match you with mobile, PS4 and Xbox One players who are in a cross-platform party — unless you’re playing Solo mode. In Solo mode (which is designed to exclude teams), you’ll only be matched against solo PC players.

Played a few random squad games & it's absolutely horrible, literally no-one communicates and just drop wherever they fancy :rolleyes:

For PC is best place to get this direct from Epic (e.g. not on Steam)?

Is the PvP version free for both PC and XBOX? Thanks

i used the epic launcher off their site direct, and battle royal is free with up to 100 players in duos, squads and solo.

You can pay for season pass which gives you access to more challenges and xp boosts and some v books to buy emotes and dance moves etc.

Just tried to get on but had a message about waiting in a queue, seems like they're experiencing some issues.

Yes, "weapon bloom"..... Basically you can have your crosshair over a target that isn't moving while crouched and the bullets randomly miss......

I've seen a few big youtubers talk about this, they believe its in the game intentionally to give people a more level playing field. AKA more people stay playing more likely they'll buy!
