There’s little actual risk involved in their development process whereas indie development consists almost entirely of risk, pain, and sacrifice. Epic can afford to fail repeatedly and try again. Fortnite made over 9 billion dollars during its first two years.
#Epic games dortnite update#
It’s remained popular and Innersloth has continued to update the game. These are people that had a wonderful idea that people loved. The About section on Innersloth’s website has five people listed on it. Link to all info in the thread ❤️ /frBjd15GIS- Among Us JBe sure to follow Among Us on Twitter t stay current with the game’s updates. 🔹 15 players & new colors – Tan, Maroon, Gray, Rose, Banana, Coral What's next for us? here are just a few of our future plans: Apple’s response didn’t result in Epic Games changing their stance just like eating PUBG wasn’t enough to satisfy Fortnite’s hunger. One of the reasons shared during the case was that Epic Games could afford Apple’s App Store cut but that many smaller developers can’t. Regardless of your thoughts on the court case, there’s no denying the entire thing has been ridiculous, including the “Free Fortnite” campaign.Įpic Games is concerned with making as much money as possible at its word when their reasoning for taking Apple to court was provided. Epic said it’s fighting this fight for all developers. One of the reasons Epic Games has provided for its problem with Apple’s App Store policies is that smaller developers can’t afford the amount Apple takes. Epic Games has made it increasingly clear it’ll do whatever is necessary to remain at the top. Unity programmer Gary Porter shared a screenshot from Among Us and Fortnite: Impostors showing the clear similarities between the two games.Īnd of course, some fans chimed in on both sides but player thoughts don’t really matter at this point. Other members from the team shared criticism as well.

She went on to say that it’s one thing for other developers to borrow or experiment with game mechanics but that “at the very least even different themes or terminology makes things more interesting?” Among Us community director Victoria Tran tweeted “it would’ve been really, really cool to collab haha” with “just sad indie hours rn” added at the end after a long space. It was so bad that individual members from Inndersloth (developer of Among Us) were talking about it. Impostors is obviously a shameless clone of Among Us. The new mode has a lot of people talking and it’s mostly about how sus it is. And now Epic Games is doing it again with a different game.Įpic Games recently added a new mode to Fortnite called Fortnite: Impostors. Epic Games had everything but the idea, which had been broadcast by players all over the world on Twitch and YouTube. Epic Games didn’t outright break any laws when Fortnite took over but with PUBG Corporation’s idea and Epic’s deep pockets, there was never any chance for PUBG or any other developer to effectively compete. The reason I bring up the reputation of PUBG at this time is it made it much easier for Epic Games to move in closer. Soon I was spending more time restarting PUBG than I was playing it. Players would get stuck in the map and die, through no fault of their own. Matches would freeze and end without warning. I found myself playing PUBG less in 2018 and it wasn’t even by choice at first. PUBG had (and has) dedicated fans but it felt like each new update brought more issues than fixes as time went on. Many in the community felt PUBG Corporation was spending too much time counting the money and less energy fixing the game.

PUBG wasn’t a tiny title but it was still smaller.
