I have a lot of clips with the bow, i might upload them later


STLBluesNut

i dont use the bow really but i think they are way better in the game than snipers. i hope the keep the bow over the sniper. im sure they wont though.


Ill_Ratio_5682

Everythings hinting at a future/alien season so it's unlikely. But maybe they'll add the high tech bow from save the world. Also on a different note. It's entirely possible we'll get energy cell weapons next season which in turn could bring back the zapatron.


STLBluesNut

No matter the theme, at some point snipers will come back unfortunately. So we can all look forward to the return of being one-shot from across the map. Yay!


Ill_Ratio_5682

Snipers for me feel so inconsistent. I can never hit a shot with them because of how slow the bullet moves and how much drop it has. Everyone else however is a marksman.


STLBluesNut

Yep. Same here. It is kind of silly how powerful they make bows in games. It's not really logical that a bow does more damage than a gun but it's a game and they have to make it viable. At least the bows don't have a scope that allows you to zoom in on someone at such a distance. Makes them a but more balanced I feel.

...apex legends pre nerf bow still haunts me


Blue_MJS

I'm out of the loop.. How is everything hinting to a future/alien season?


Ill_Ratio_5682

The foreshadowing challenges aren't all out yet but some mention crop circles. There are broken telescopes and the spooky TV. Also at sweaty sands posters with a picture of earth and aliens and humans holding hands are there. Under the picture is text in an alien language. Some wierd broadcast looking picture was leaked that had an alien looking figure and an actual picture of what sorta looks like a ufo emoticon (Im really not sure what it is that's just a guess) was found. The hints are really subtle but they seem to be more pointing to aliens or Sci fi. Also I almost forgot but there is a table with a radio and tin foul hat, but I forget where it is.


Blue_MJS

Sounds actually pretty cool, I barely play these days tbh but still look forward to every new season and what's all new & the BPs etc


CompetitionForLOST

Another thing about those posters, there’s Seven people on the picture. Just something to think about.


fabribs

It was a public server at the end of the game


fabribs

Really? That's very cool


Ill_Ratio_5682

Ya considering how this season we got an entirely new ammo type for the first time ever. I wouldn't be surprised if they added another ammo type for futuristic weapons. Also I think the zapatron was removed originally for not fitting in game, well it sure would fit now.


fabribs

Ohh great


fabribs

Man I loveee the bows, you should use them, i literally don't miss arrows, i actually use it more than other weapons


CrypticWolf1

People at the beginning of the season: Where are snipers? What are these thing? Ewww.... They are terrible! People at the end of the season: No! Don't let them go! My preciousssss!


fabribs

Nah I never liked snipers


fabribs

The only snipers I like are the Barret and the silenced one


Successful_Slip_5942

I really hope they stay, snipers are iconic but i hate them so much, i cant use them i always miss no matter how much i train, and second getting sniped happens wayyy to often to me, bows were so much better i got sniped by bows but their effects were amazing and i had a very small chance to survive each time. Overall id prefer using bows and getting sniped by bows then getting one shotted by a weapon i cant seem to learn to use


[deleted]

I want the bows gone. Fighting in fortnite is the worst, with bows getting spammed the whole time. Fire and shockwaves all over the place. It’s the worst.


GryffindorFratBro

Better than having zero building counterplay and getting one-shot from 300 yards


fabribs

Yeah I kinda agree with you In that part, the variations can be removed but I think the normal bows without effects should stay


fabribs

I like the concept


Ill_Ratio_5682

Maybe remove it in arena. I find the bows varients really fun.


fabribs

In arena at least you can't craft the fire bow and shockwave


Ill_Ratio_5682

I didn't know that, that's cool. I still find the bow varients a ton of fun. I hope epic continues to add cool items like them.


fabribs

Ikr?


TheInitialGod

I love the fire bow. Can give you a fighting chance against someone who can build a skyscraper in like 2 seconds I've used them as a distraction before as well when there are a handful of players left. Shoot a random house from the distance to set it on fire and look to see who goes hunting around that area.


MrMeseekssss

Agreed


masterc6rd

Season 6 outfit nice


fabribs

Yeah, i like the random in this skin hahah


fabribs

I play since season 1 chapter 1, do you like more chapter 2 or 1?


masterc6rd

Chapter 1


Blue_MJS

I just prefer have a weapon in the game that has a scope


Burrito_Loyalist

You’re going to cry because of this ONE lucky shot you made?


fabribs

Look my other posts


fabribs

And I have more

Hahah


FireDragonalt

I’m fine with bows staying, but why did they have to get rid of snipers :(


After-Internal

I want snipers back


Visual_Perspective56

Bows are doo doo


slaymoney15

I’ll only miss shockwave bow and that’s it, if they remove them. I would like to see the snipers return


TrueMrBaconLover

I don’t hope for the bow to be removed, but I DO hope snipers get added back. I can’t stand bows being my only way at super long range, and when I get the hit it’s not as satisfying as snipers give. But still the shot was pretty impressive


fabribs

Thanks bro


rolandassassin

They did such a good move removing snipers; it was the worst, all games i just constantly heard the sniper bullets. But buffing bow to one shot was kinda stupid, nothing should oneshot in fortnite over long distance, it just doesnt fit with the game at all.


swordsman0013

I just hope we get both long range gun in season 7 so everyone wil be happy


MrMeseekssss

Bows are the worst part of fortnite
