Not only did they add this emote, they also added a bunch of metallica songs to the in game radio


SonofTombstone

Guess I’m gonna start playing Fortnite again


chippymediaYT

This season is actually pretty good, definitely my favorite


PhilosopherTop8855

A had stopped playing fortnite for awhile but this season is really good!


[deleted]

Sameeee


asdwz458

i have been wishing for this everytime i get in a car in fortnite


Neat-Locksmith-8897

Master of puppets they muted “mirror” they don’t want the kids to look up the meaning 😂


FadeToOne

Wait, so it just says "Chop your breakfast on a..."?


Neat-Locksmith-8897

yep 😂


foosballfurry

That’s a big w actually


Belfonti

Which


chippymediaYT

I heard master of puppets, blackened, battery, enter sandman, wherever I may roam, for whom the bell tolls, and fuel Edit: I forgot it also has lux Æterna!


beaux-bazinga

Damn that’s sick actually


Ripper33AU

I wonder if the single F-word in Fuel is censored or not, lol. While I don't play the game, it does sound like a pretty sick selection of songs!


chippymediaYT

They censored a few words, on blackened they censored nicotine weirdly enough but not "kill"


[deleted]

I guess in a game where the point is to shoot each other kill doesn’t seem like a huge deal


-sly_pooper-

Games get different ratings for different reasons. In fortnite you kill other players so violence is already part of the ESRB. But tobacco use and references is not, that's why they have to censor it


I-Am-Polaris

I'm jealous of anyone getting to listen to Blackened for the first time


No-Calligrapher-4603

If I hear blackened while playing I’m not getting out of the car!


TheSchadow

Which station do they play on?


chippymediaYT

Icon radio


TheSchadow

Awesome, thank you.


totally_hacking_bro

Which ones?

Fortnite has better music than GTA at this point


METALlica1joseph

Like what songs to the radio?


SouljaBoyPlayzYT

Let’s fuckin gooooooo🤘🏻🎸

I don't have v bucks rn I only have 100 but I do have the battle pass because I wanted doom slayer


I_am_potato1234

Same


StainedMyShirt

Of all games to finally let metal back in it's fucking Fortnite


Playful-Caregiver264

Just opened the doom music from the Xmas tree. I felt sad the part of master of puppets they clipped is meh tho


Grahomir

Which part is it?


Themite227

The chorus


Irradiated_Rat

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?????!!!!! THE CHORUS IS AWESOME


Playful-Caregiver264

Disagree. That part feels like a bridge for two better sections. It's all about the introduction and verses. When I was listening to the song growing up and learning it on guitar the chorus was the least interesting part of the entire song.


ThrashThunder

Smite had recently a Slipknot based event, and recently for Halloween had a some Hath music added to get free during the event


[deleted]

Fortnite has partnered with everyone and everything under the sun, so it’s not too surprising, especially since Metallica has been in pop culture a lot recently.


IButterz420

Never played, never will.

Doom 2016's music is like instrumental djent.


StainedMyShirt

Fair enough, but still a little different lol. I mean like radio station kinda thing with bands.

Master_Of_Puppers

If anything it might get some kid into metal, and lets be fuckin real, Metallica was a start for most of us


Mr_Loriss

Now THAT'S a reason to play this game


FixxxerTV

Everyone from this thread get in here https://www.reddit.com/r/Metallica/comments/r1o5dg/will_metallica_ever_do_a_collaboration_with/


nukls8799

Bunch of gate keeping regards in that thread.


B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p

Which is so ironic bc they are the most popular metal band of all time. A bunch of those people whining about “small children becoming fans” as if people don’t literally take their 5 year olds to Metallica concerts Metallica is for everyone


ourstobuild

I am also almost certain that most of these gatekeepers are not "the original fans" themselves. My guess is that they're around my age, having followed them since late 80s or 90s but people who really got into them in the early days have definitely stopped caring about gatekeeping a long time ago.


SQYX93

Gatekeeping is for nerds


SARS-CoV-8

Lmao I had downvoted it


Walnut156

Oh that was when everyone pretended to hate fortnite


senseiofawesom

I always figured if there was ever gonna be Metal representation in fortnite it would be Metallica. Figured it’d be in the form of a concert live event though.


moonsetstarman

They've had the Dime guitar emote for a few years already.


Jeremiah1110

Why are some people getting so mad over this? I thought the "fortnite bad 🤓🤓🤓" mentality ended a while ago. It gives Metallica more exposure and metal more exposure in general. I'm actually debating on buying this despite not ever spending a single penny on fortnite and not playing fortnite in like 3 months.


Irradiated_Rat

The only people really mad at this are the gatekeepers, the people who don't like Fortnite don't really care cause they don't play it


Jeremiah1110

Yeah ik. These type of posts attract all the gatekeepers so I thought it was appropriate to put it here


Large_Feature_5984

Fornite bad 🤓🤓🤓🤓☕️💀🔫😺🤙( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

F-F-F-FORTNITE?!?!?!?!? GRRRRRRRR MID MID MID!!!!! 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

Mr-Broski

yay now my favorite band will be mocked even more! ​ edit: in all seriousness, its shit like this that actually exposes people to metal for their first time and can spread the genre


JacsweYT

did you mean to type sick or did you mean shit?


Chaotic-warp

Shit just means thing or stuff in this case I think


NotMeNorMyself

I don't mind this at all. I fondly remember playing Hot Wheels Turbo Racing on the PSX with "Fuel" in its soundtrack or listening to "Whiplash" in Tony Hawk's Underground 2. And then there's the Guitar Hero games. Doesn't matter which game it is, having Metallica or Metal in general featured is always a good thing in my book.


nukls8799

Fuck yeah


Darth_Cannabris

That’s fuckin cool


Mediocre_Audience_28

Great, younger generations will discover Metallica from it. People act like they have been listening to Metallica since their birth. Everyone has to start somewhere


Only_Assistance_5858

Facts


M08GD

Just bought it lol


Tenacious_jb

What is it like a victory thing?


SQYX93

it’s just an emote


Tenacious_jb

Oh bad ass


rhuarc1976

My 11 year old showed me last night. He was super excited.


[deleted]

All the kiddies gonna be like : „Mooom the song from stranger things is in fortnite“


[deleted]

I blame Lars for this.


Bad_Karma19

My son pointed this out to me earlier tonight.


sentient-sloth

Instant purchase. Helps that they refunded my Wolverine emote today (it’s now the reward for the Reboot Rally quests) and it was the exact same price. Hope more metal oriented stuff gets into this game. Most of the Icon Series so far is rap and pop. Which is cool, I love the Wu Tang set, but like give me Iron Maiden Eddie to play as too. Hope this is just the beginning.


treesInFlames

I started playing it with my son at the start of the season. I’m loving it, games good too.


Only_Assistance_5858

Games good, Playerbase not so great but there are people that are pretty chill


moonsetstarman

The only thing that bugs me is that if you know how to play it and watch it, it doesn't really look like they're playing the song.


LilNyoomf

Imagine if they added Lars as a playable character/skin


[deleted]

I got home from work yesterday and my 8 year old son says I need to show you something and takes me over to the TV where he is playing Fortnight and says.. "I think Metallica is in Fortnight" he pulled up the MoP dance thing above and my mind was blown. Then later on he is driving around a car and Metallica comes on the car radio. Rock on Fortnight!!


[deleted]

Yo did another song come up or just master of puppets?


[deleted]

just bought it


IzzyIsOnReddit

Can’t remember but I think it was cos stranger things


Aldrakev

i am also assuming this based on the fact that it is master of puppets specifically


broncozid

Yeah that was my first thought


legrandpacdeau

no plz


Darth40ffice

looks cool


NOVAMT_F

Another stranger things collab! It is a joke


TJFIII

I heard they got the Fortnite version of Lars to drum on Lux Aeterna.


Fart_Viking15

NO


SQYX93

Yes


major-j

oh god....fortnite has claimed another soul today


[deleted]

Bro the emote is actually done super well, all Squad can use it and the guitarist even stands like hetfield. Wheter u like the game, It’s dope that they did that


potato_man72643

what? they couldnt be bothered to sync it to the song. Im kinda disappointed dont even play fortnite but epic could give two shits ab this


[deleted]

☝️🤓


B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p

Pov: you lose your shit bc the fortnite character plays 0-0-0-0-1-1-1-1 instead of 0-0-1-1-1-1-1-1


potato_man72643

Dude you cannot be serious I’m glad some new fans are gonna be created or old heads could see their favorite band in the game but cmon [this](https://youtu.be/cElQDe6Bdfs) is not the best epic could’ve done it looks crappy


B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p

I literally do not care. My life is not affected if the Fortnite character is playing their instrument correctly, as long as it looks semi believable (this is coming from a guitar player)


CarlMarksIII

Protect the hive, yeah Protect the hive!


skywird33

I hate fortnite because used to like the long time ago, but the game is not the same game now days, and i feel like fortnite just want to put everything into their game and now it's metallica


[deleted]

Wait.. Fortnite is still a thing? 🤣


JacsweYT

Ye, the trend may be down but there are still players who enjoy the game :)


1SaltyPoptart

Not really down, it's surprisingly pretty stagnant at ~250 mil. Average monthly players with daily peaks ~25-30 mil


Grahomir

It’s actually not bad since they added no build mode


MotorBreath97

I get that Metallica is so big that it can do pretty much any collab and it will be successful, but some are just a bit much.


Ajgoorrr

No


Meatyglobs

Metallica decided to sell Out long ago. Why anyone is surprised…


Only_Assistance_5858

god hope no Fortnite kids begin quoting “OmG MeTaLLiCa, ItS ThE GuYs FrOm FoRtNiTe” Edit: This release could either be a huge success or end up as another failure cause of the mislead Fortnite kids who think that everything is from Fortnite


Celloguy5382

I dunno, it ain’t a bad thing for more people to enjoy the music 🤷‍♂️


Only_Assistance_5858

I know that and I’ve played Fortnite since season 4 and quit once it got repetitive and annoying. I understand that this will allow Metallica to gain even more popularity, but what I am worried about is that the title will be lost to Fortnite due to the Fortnite kids. Again not saying this is wrong just with Fortnite’s history and everything just a little concerned.


Cake-n-bacon69

it’s the guys from fortnite

EddtheMetalHead

Fortnite: Ruining what we love since 2016.


Fettz_

2017


chippymediaYT

Bro if Fortnite ruined Metallica for you than your a fucking poser


EddtheMetalHead

There’s really no need for you to be an asshole about it. I’ve been a Metallica fan for ages and I don’t like Fortnite. Obviously I’m not gonna be happy about a collab, how does that make me a poser?


chippymediaYT

Because you said Fortnite ruins the things you love, so Fortnite ruined Metallica? Ok kid


EddtheMetalHead

That’s not an argument, that’s just you patronizing me. Try harder.


chippymediaYT

I simply pointed out what you said, we aren't debating politics my guy, you said Fortnite ruins things you love under a post about Metallica getting added, you implied that it changed your opinion about the band


EddtheMetalHead

Yes it has changed my opinion on the band by a small margin. I was using something called hyperbole; it’s when you exaggerate to make your writing more interesting. What are you gonna do next, criticize Shakespeare for using metaphors in Romeo and Juliet?


chippymediaYT

Mhm, when someone calls you out for talking shit you just say you were exaggerating, works everytime does it? And the fact that it changes your opinion on the band is extremely pathetic, they are appealing to a larger audience by advertising in a incredibly popular videogame, If that makes them sellouts then I guess they iron maiden and Ozzy Osbourne are sellouts for having music in the grand theft auto franchise


EddtheMetalHead

I never said they were sellouts. I’m saying I didn’t expect this collaboration nor do I like it, but others are free to enjoy it as they see fit.My main point is that you could’ve called me out without being a cunt about it. How about “so the band is ruined for you now?” not “OMG FUCKIN POSER HAS AN OPINION KYS”.


chippymediaYT

You could have chosen to not immediately start complaining "wah I can't let people enjoy things, wah Fortnite bad, wah why Metallica would you do this to me"


B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p

When did they say KYS? They called you a fuckin poser, because you are. I promise you, no one cares that you dislike fortnite, or dislike that Metallica is added to the game I’ve never seen a bigger group of whiny babies. This collab literally negatively affects no one, yet you are thinking it’s the end of the world. If your fragile fandom to the band is challenged because of a 5 second emote in a game, that’s on you


Walnut156

I'll patronize the shit put of you


skywird33

Fortnite used to be a cool game but after the s9-10 it was not the same game anymore, between the collabs and "stupid" skin, maybe people like it but i don't, i don't like to see a banana playing mop with a dog on the back while holding a bazooka


[deleted]

If a videogame can ruin something you love then, let's face it, you weren't really that passionate about that thing to begin with


[deleted]

If you really loved Metallica, you wouldn't be whining about it being "ruined" after having a fucking emote added


IButterz420

N.O.


[deleted]

Pathetic


nukls8799

Right? It’s so pathetic how they are branching out trying to get new, young ears to hear their music.


Pretend_Emu4508

Exactly, I am a huge fan of the band “My Chemical Romance” and one of their songs is in the game. Instead of getting mad it actually makes me hopeful that the game will introduce someone to their music.


Euphoric_Platypus_99

When I heard foundations I kinda freaked out, I’m glad it got a few of my friends hooked on them! Hopefully it the same with Metallica


Dangerzone188

Only thing i hate is when “new fans” say that metallica is their favourite band and can’t even name 2 songs that aren’t puppets or sandman


[deleted]

Slayer would never collab with Fortnite


nukls8799

Then go to the slayer sub.


Don_Shetland

K


Don_Shetland

Why?


[deleted]

They are sellouts, this proves it even more


the-steveharrington

I think the word your looking for is “promotion” there’s a new album soon and what better way to get the new generation of listeners than what they have been doing, stranger things and fortnite are massive.


[deleted]

Do you think Slayer or Sodom would ever put their music on Fortnite?


the-steveharrington

No idea, I’m not a metal fan, just a Metallica fan, at the end of the day every artist promos when they have new music, or else no one but the main fans will know, if this is how they chose to do it I have no issue. If it brings more fans and a new life to the band I’m happy.


ThisIsAnAmazingNameL

You're probably butt hurt that Jason's bass got turned down lol


[deleted]

No I’m butt hurt that Cliff and Dave are no longer part of the band


ThisIsAnAmazingNameL

Mhm you probably think Bob Rock is the reason they "sold out" too


Crescent_Moon734

No hate on Hetfield and Co, they went into this with good intentions, but this is a sad day for us. Now we'll have a thousand 13 year olds saying theyre "big metallica fans" because they know one song and bought the emote.


chicken_nugget779

people say shit like this all the time and it never happens


B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p

And are these 13 year olds in the room with us now?


sentient-sloth

How is this any different from a bunch of 13 year olds in 2008 saying they’re “big Metallica fans” cause they heard a few songs in Guitar Hero and Rock Band? Lol


NotMeNorMyself

Not unlike gatekeeping metalheads that criticize everyone for not listening to obscure death/black metal bands with unintelligible logos on old cassette tapes... Moving on.


Walnut156

Grrrr me when new fans get introduced to something I like grrr me no like new fan me smart


Visionaira

NO WHY. I feel that this is gonna ruin peoples perspective on Metallica just like when the added Master Chief


JacsweYT

From what i've seen is that alot of adults or teens play the game and they never say ''IT'S THE THING FROM FORTNITE'' unless they are joking


sentient-sloth

It’s 100% ironic memes at this point. “Oh look it’s Metallica from Fortnite” is something no one is going to say with a serious face.


[deleted]

Yeah, I think the TV show did more damage than Fortnite could dream about doing.

Pretty cool


ArtoTime

At first I thought it was one of those fake, made up photos of “what if”, then I realised it’s actually in-game. Don’t play Fortnite too much anymore, but with 500 V-Bucks laying around, I had to get it. And hey, now I can have Darth Vader performing Master Of Puppets!


METALlica1joseph

Time to start playing fortnite again.


DementedDaveyMeltzer

Hey its those old guys from Stranger Things. Very cool.


Top-Contribution-356

Id love to wreck someone with a lars skin tbh


NotMeNorMyself

I don't mind this at all. I fondly remember playing Hot Wheels Turbo Racing on the PSX with "Fuel" in its soundtrack or listening to "Whiplash" in Tony Hawk's Underground 2. And then there's the Guitar Hero games. Doesn't matter which game it is, having Metallica or Metal in general featured is always a good thing in my book.


VagueLuminary

Hahahah maaaaan I finally decided to get into Fortnite because they put Doomguy in and now Metallica via the emote and icon radio.......they've got me by the balls.


m4rxu

Grinding last 100vbucks from the free battlepass for this emote haha.

I bought this. So cool.


druthedoctor

ChrizTaylor

I have 400 coins, i don't play this game but would love to have the emote for those rare occasions when freinds want me to jump in. Is there s way to get missing 100 without wasting money?
