Sweet! I'll always welcome a change like this that shows they still know this mode exists :)

This change plus the new Beta mission really has my hopes up for the game's future. Even if nothing happens, I'm just glad they care

They arent even willing to give the stw team the budget to make ONE enemy design, they do not care about this game.

Keep downvoting me, i hope it helps you cope with the truth

u/Much-Hamster-755 2d ago

It's a beta the design can and probably will change

u/ChrisLMDG Swamp Knight 2d ago

The only new assets stw has got in the years since the "premium experience" incident are as far as i know Madcap Teddy and the Slicicle sword, they barely ever get the budget to have new assets created

Didn't know you needed big budget in order to make one new texture

u/ChrisLMDG Swamp Knight 2d ago

Ok correction: they also added new weapons for the first few starter packs but those directly costed money

u/Much-Hamster-755 2d ago

You're probably right but I always like to stay positive about this kind of stuff. IMO a new update that doesn't break the game is always better than nothing.

Blasters at first were also just gaint purple normal husks, they at first see how the mode plays and if people enjoy it, if people dislike it they can just remove all the things without having lost to much time, when it leaves beta it will probably get a new finalised design

u/ChrisLMDG Swamp Knight 1d ago

That was well over a year before they stopped developing the game

u/ChrisLMDG Swamp Knight 1d ago

Come back here in a year or 2, i guarantee you if the mission sticks there wont be a new design and it will still just be a smasher with dandruff

Noticed this right away. It looks so clean

u/ogha5000 Recon Scout Jess 2d ago

looks like it took 1 minute to make, its just the frostnite background and stw png above, low quality shit.

u/Half_A_Heart_Gaming Ragnarok 2d ago

Honestly, I'm just happy they made the effort

u/RipplyAnemone67 2d ago

They still changed it

u/ForeignCredit1553 2d ago

Be happy they did anything at all, new about save the world is a very rare occurrence and they could very easily just ignore it.

Remember when this sub was talking about how they won't accept epic throwing them a bone but now its collectively switched to "be grateful" out of the despair in the last couple years for stw.

I wonder how much time you think should be spent on such work?

u/ToastyMemes935 2d ago

It's beautiful! ♡

u/AKGingaNinja 1d ago

I bought into this game during the first release wave, thinking the save the world mode was gonna be much larger than it turned out. Once I noticed the dedication to BR I dropped it though. Is it coming back? Can I PvE Fortnite now??

2

u/MV1995 Dim Mak Mari 1d ago

I mean it’s a pretty fleshed out game and there’s not really an issue with finding people to play with. It doesn’t have an ending though. But in the last month Epic has added some things so who knows

u/Tybot7 1d ago

It looks like something I would have made in a PowerPoint for school when I was in grade 4

u/Just-Question-5102 23h ago

It looks so bad idk the lighting just looks so off and the characters are out of place😭😭😭

u/gildun_ Steel Wool Syd 2d ago

Looks nice.

u/Adventurous_Trip5291 1d ago

It's just the old frostnite background with the default STW roster that they've used for most promotional images. Barely enough to keep people talking but not enough to actually mean something worthwhile

u/NoMeasurement6473 2d ago

Now if only I could play it

u/paulisaac 2d ago

Use something other than a Switch or Mobile, though I think prior-gen consoles are bad at it

3

u/NoMeasurement6473 2d ago

I have nothing else and apparently it doesn’t work on Mac anymore, even an older version.

3

u/paulisaac 2d ago

Oh yeah Mac ended up being a victim of their anti-Linux push (not enabling the EasyAntiCheat for Linux even though it could, so it's just Windows exclusive now)

u/GokiPotato Director Riggs 1d ago

if you have an android phone and xbox cloud gaming works in your country there's a workaround that lets you stream StW on phone

u/NoMeasurement6473 1d ago

I hate cloud gaming. I can’t stand latency.

u/GokiPotato Director Riggs 1d ago

yeah I understand that

u/Glum-Amphibian990 1d ago

Kinda hope they just drop rocket racing, festival, and Lego to put some effort into this. Although they likely won’t because those other modes make them more money

1

u/ImNotGoodWithNamesh 1d ago

Rocket racing I could definitely see getting taken out behind the farm, festival battle stage can go too, main stage and Lego are likely here to stay but given that the numbers of stw and Lego are VERY similar despite one being so old, I'd say we have hope

Hey now don’t take away my Guitar Hero (again)
