'Fortnite OG' lobbies may now have as little as eight real players, according to a report from a prominent Epic Games leaker.

    A couple of months ago there was a data breach on twitter that revealed only 7% were actual people (active accounts)

          Are you one? This is making zero sense.

            Elmo “Pedo Guy” Musk is merging Twitter with Fortnite. So the Twitter bots will now be playing Fortine while spamming Elmo propaganda in chat.

            What exactly is not clear to you?

              Man, I’m so out of touch, apparently 😂

    Bots in Fortnite are no secret but it really has gotten bad, huh? I remember trying the game out some years ago, was annoyed by the obvious bots in my games and never touched it again after one session. Things must’ve gotten more downhill since.

    Back in the day we dreamed of games with large war zones and hundred of people. Sadly, technology wasn’t advanced enough. So we would have bits running around everywhere. Simpler times😂

    Bots were a big reason why I didn’t continue playing Naraka. A battle royale that has bots is just awful. I’d rather have long queues than a BR lobby with a handful of people.

    In a lot of the games I play, I’d be happy to have that many.
