SquareDotCube: oh right, I wonder what FPS they decided on
SquareDotCube: Battlefront would be thematically appropriate
JoTyler: fortnite >:D
Juliamon: it's in the schedule
Sethalidos: Fortnite
JoTyler: can't wait to see a lightsaber duel on top of a tie fighter
Thefluffiestguineapig: Did they figure out the private server stuff to try to avoid the truly horrific toxic stuff?
Garfman314: hello everypeoples

LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: Crossing the Streams (The LoadingReadyRun crew join hands (sometimes from the comfort of their homes) to play some video games! Game: Fortnite) at Mon 05:00 PM PDT (7m from now).
Thefluffiestguineapig: @JoTyler In the animated series Plo Koon did absolutely take apart a whole bunch of droids in the vacuum of space if that scratches a similar itch for you
JoTyler: oh yeah but that's not going to be as silly as if it's goku vs godzilla with lightsabers
Sethalidos: Am I the only one who thinks most Star Wars names are just cat walking across a keyboard
Thefluffiestguineapig: I don't know how long I'll be able to stick around because I need to take one of my last online portions of my finals
ihlendrax: !box
LRRbot: In the box is: beefy jeefy
JoTyler: @Thefluffiestguineapig ahh good luck!
Mazrae: !searchfortreasure
LRRbot: You find: Gold!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Sethalidos In the "all the people who actually would edit George Lucas left" era? No
Mazrae: !advice
LRRbot: Put something nice inside of me.
Sethalidos: 0_o
Garfman314: beefy jeefy is a star wars name
Mazrae: Ummm LRRbot are you okay?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Garfman314 I suspect it's one of the lesser known companion animals
Thefluffiestguineapig: If it's not obvious I'm one of those lonely nerds who grew up reading EU novels
Sethalidos: am LRRBot ok?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Because no one wanted to be friends with the autistic kid in the corner who had read all the Sherlock Holmes material by grade 3
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Sethalidos Never
Garfman314: i probably should have said "sounds like", as i'm not aware of a canon Beefy Jeefy
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Garfman314 There is not as far as I am aware
Garfman314: (though one might exist, hell if i know, that canon seems like a right pile)
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Garfman314 Although I could give two shits about most of the Disney new canon, I know WAY too much about EU nonsense though. SO MUCH NONSENSE
Thefluffiestguineapig: When you go to school with the same 13 kids in your grade through 8th grade and they won't be friends with you, you read a lot of nonsense in the aisles of Barnes and Noble to ease the loneliness

jacqui_lantern234: @JoTyler you better fuckin play with me, nerd!
Quaseymoto: There's no going back in Fortnite
JoTyler: Alex right now
DaxStrife: James needs 144fps because his PC has been naughty and he needs to punish it.
ContingentCat: real gamers don't go back James
HorusFive: Ever Forward, James. Ever forward
tehfewl: its made for cellphone ui
HadesLeprechaun: this UI seems very specifically designed to get children lost and buying things accidentally
DigitalSeahorse: never thought I'd see LRR do Fortnite
DigitalSeahorse: kitty!
Sethalidos: @HadesLeprechaun got it in one
kumatsu: @DigitalSeahorse it's happened before
bytecaster: This feels like a lesson in UI design by showing off all the bad patterns
EvilBadman: They've done it befoe
Juliamon: DigitalSeahorse this isn't even the first time
dumbo3k: Magic: The Gathering: Fortnite Edition

NorthstarTex: James...wtf were you doing last you played this?
JoTyler: nope that one was free
EvilBadman: all these cosmetics track for James yeah
goombalax: if the infinite legions of fortnite streamers aren't getting demonetized playing this season you're probably fine with the star wars music
Lord_Hosk: a sand crawler!
rosesmcgee: James bought all these cosmetics while he was on a bender
JoTyler: for the record, the passes have free stuff every so levels
bytecaster: Oh, even the area is star wars themed
JoTyler: some*
Getter404: Oh hey, Jizz music
Sethalidos: no one tell him thet are most likely bots
Dog_of_Myth:

JKBalch: Cold James
NorthstarTex: James is not a storm trooper in terms of aim
EvilBadman: that had big Bot enemy energy
Garfman314: when does the yelling at 12 year olds start?
bytecaster: They shoot, James, they do the shooting
RandomTrivia: The amount of "content" to this which is literally just "here is [thing you already know]" -> "I love [thing I already know!]" is obscene
JoTyler: yeah it's a star wars event rn
PharaohBender27:
"Man, things have gone downhill lately. Empire might have been harsh, but there weren't massive gunfights every night under them." 
Dread_Pirate_Westley: Well, that one shoots bullets at other players...
JKBalch: maybe all fortnite players have storm trooper aim
DigitalSeahorse: I wouldn't be surprised
HorusFive: It's all Star Wars all the time in the content mills
7gorobei: it was May the Fourth
JoTyler: yeah there's NPCs at certain spots
DigitalSeahorse: monke
RandomTrivia:

gsyhiap: He did the thing!
DigitalSeahorse: sockey
JoTyler: big potion!
JoTyler: slurpyy
Lord_Hosk: Fun fact about the Jawa sandcrawers, they were originally brought to Tattoine by ore mining companies, but it was found that when the Iron from Tattoine was processed it would rust and deteriorate at a rate almost ten times faster than normal iron making it usesless. so they abandoned their equipment Each sandcrawler is the home to a different Jawa tribe every 5 years there is a giant swap meet where all the tribes meet up to trade goods, and tribe members.
PharaohBender27: @Lord_Hosk NGL, I can see this being EU canon
bytecaster: Oh, it's actual mythical kappa, I can get behind that
BrowneePointz: Nope.
BrowneePointz: Even in EU Canon they were native to Tatooine
MAPBoardgames: I wasn't expecting James to be monkeying around in fortnite
bytecaster: Does the factory make cucumbers products?
BrowneePointz: in the EU they were just part of the same Race as the Tusken, the Kumamgah, who were bombed back into the stone age by the Rakatan Infinite Empire
PharaohBender27:
OK so Hosk was justing doing his usual thing, then 
Garfman314: the empire is pretty bad at osha
BrowneePointz: but even in new canon they're indigenous to Tatooine
DaxStrife: Everyone at Epic Games should be in jail, send skeet.
bytecaster: @BrowneePointz As a citizen of the European union, that doesn't sound familiar to me
Garfman314: autozone?
RockPusher: I see we are monkeying around in *the* video game
Lord_Hosk: The Jawa's were native to Tattooine however the sandcrawers were not. The sandcrawler lore comes from the EU but is MOSTLY still true
PharaohBender27: Ah
Lord_Hosk: those are clone troopers not storm troopers
BrowneePointz: James, excuse you, they have a Drosal Fin on top and that's an LAAT-i Those are Clones
drewm1022: Get in losers.

Lord_Hosk: CLONE TROOPERS
BrowneePointz: *eye twitches*
Lord_Hosk: Some people
DigitalSeahorse: Road Quest Fortnight
bytecaster:
Eh, what's the difference, though? 
SquareDotCube: not gonna take the LaaTi?
BrowneePointz: clones were programmed to enable Fascism, Stormtroopers abed it willingly @bytecaster
JoTyler: shooting a pew pew gun is so satisfying lol
ShaneLeeAtk: Just clicking on heads
RockPusher: that combat sound direction indicator is a good feature — well done Fortnite
JoTyler: yeah honestly, fortnite has a lot of great accessibility options
BrowneePointz: Is it a Disruptor!?
JoTyler: their colourblind options are real good too
jacqui_lantern234:
@JoTyler your friendship is satisfying 
DigitalSeahorse: so white!
SnackPak_: the Itchy loy
BrowneePointz: are they doing Galactic Battle mode?
SnackPak_: lot*
PharaohBender27: OK I clearly got distracted because now instead of Tatooine they're in Not-Not-Japan?
bytecaster: They have trains here? I'm sold now
BrowneePointz: if so, they MAY be able to find some lightsabers iirc
calculated_uncertainties: Auto zone?
DigitalSeahorse: white linoleum floors
JoTyler: yeah theres a train with a vault that goes around the map
baltimore_667083: train tracks!
BrowneePointz: aaah okay for other star wars nerds they have the following
PharaohBender27:
Everytime someone says "Auto zone" I remember that jingle from like 15 years ago, "
Get in the zone! AUTO ZONE!
"
JoTyler: @PharaohBender27 forever in my brain meats
baltimore_667083: the jingle is still around today as far as I’m aware
GasCityGaming: @PharaohBender27 saaaaaame
bytecaster: The train is here
TheAinMAP: Train!
DigitalSeahorse: tram!
DigitalSeahorse: train
BrowneePointz: DL-44, CR-2, ACP and BARM-12, DLT-19, IQA-11 Sniper, A280-CFE, and they unvaulted the DC-15, E-11 and F-11.
PharaohBender27 solemnly nods as @JoTyler and @GasCityGaming
DigitalSeahorse: different button?
JoTyler: yeah theres a button to hit that switches scope modes
JoTyler: but i dont remember what it is
GasCityGaming: mine was scroll or middle click while aiming to go scoped i think?
Scy_Anide: There's probably an ADS vs scope button. Maybe middle mouse? (I have no idea)
gsyhiap: Maybe you need to give Mr Fortnite more money to unlock more scoping...
TheMerricat: Google says: "The scope on the new rifles and smg sometimes glitches and u can't ads unless u drop the weapon and pick it up again. It's really annoying in fights."
JosephDeath: 'Left shift to change weapon cant"?
JoTyler: oh yeah that's the floating island
BrowneePointz: Rey Palpatine and Samurai Vader gives you sabers and powers
JoTyler: red saberrrrrrr
pn55: Cool!
JoTyler: now u have double jumps
BrowneePointz: and then Windu drops on the 8th and Maul later
jacqui_lantern234:
@JoTyler to the tune of Snake Eater 
bytecaster: Wow, sith training is easier than I thought
JoTyler: and force....pull?
BrowneePointz: was it Palpatine or Vader
JoTyler: i dunno what power hte red saber gives you
BrowneePointz: Palpatine give you lightning
JoTyler: blue gives you force push
JoTyler: doooope
BrowneePointz: Vader gives you saber toss
NorthstarTex: is James a Jedi now?
JoTyler: NPC boss
bytecaster: Who is Shogun X? This is so much at once
TheAinMAP: James fell up.
Sorator13: Oh. Yep, that sure is Samurai Vader. Yikes.
gsyhiap: "What is this? Waa!" is pretty much the summary of this entire stream...
RandomTrivia: ALEX YES
JoTyler: there was a thing with demons invading a bit ago
Ms_LadyMix: Fortnight makes me feel SO out of touch, truly more than anything else
jacqui_lantern234: ALEX AND NELLY YES
JoTyler: one of the character plots
RandomTrivia: When did this become discount Sekiro?
PharaohBender27: @BrowneePointz God, "Rey Palpatine." I had been watching the last trilogy mostly as . . . cultural obligation, I guess? And then a coworker of mine who was SUPER into Star Wars said she *hated* Rise of Skywalker, so I decided to not see it, and based on everything I've heard about that movie, I made the right move.
JoTyler: there's story actually lmao
DaxStrife: This game has identity issues.
Quaseymoto: So is Fortnite just going full circle and becomming a PVE game again?
Lord_Hosk: There is a nether portal too
DigitalSeahorse: updraft is like updog, sub with you!
JoTyler: there's always events and stuff aroudn the map
BrowneePointz: Episode 9 sucks so much ass. As a Star Wars fan, as much as I have qualms about 8 (but not those reasons) it still works and is a competent film
jacqui_lantern234:
@Lord_Hosk nether? i hardly know her! 
JoTyler: last season was heists
DigitalSeahorse: sup*
BrowneePointz: 9 made me feel INSULTED @PharaohBender27
DaxStrife: Worse: it's PvE that gets interrupted by PvP.
pn55:

gsyhiap:

RandomTrivia: @DaxStrife I believe that's because its identity is "whatever will make it the most money"
RandomTrivia:

Geldaran: So when do you build a base and defend it from a Zombie rush?
DaxStrife: @RandomTrivia Or they can steal, yeah.
bytecaster: That is one legendary jug
BrowneePointz: however, Rey being Palpatine's granddaughter isn't that stupid of an idea and I don't mind it. @PharaohBender27

JoTyler: find a jump pad
kusinohki: as a star wars fan (but less memory than brownee) - ep8 insulted my intelligence. ep9 was somehow still worse
PharaohBender27: @BrowneePointz Oh I also had issues (but not those!) with 8, though really they boiled down to me not having looked at the runtime and therefore spending the last hour going, "So, it ends here, right? . . . No, we're still going?"
JoTyler: pew pew!~
DigitalSeahorse: let them get hurt by the zone

PharaohBender27: @BrowneePointz I do have an issue with it, but in addition to not wanting to derail chat, I think Jenny Nicholson's review of that film more or less explains my issue

Darleysam: can't wait for the to bring Balatro to Fortnite

Tiber727: @Quaseymoto Is an infinite loop in Fortnite capping a guy, letting their teammate rez them, then capping them again?
HadesLeprechaun: when does Fortnite run out of huge, cultural touchstones and has to start going for second tier properties, or do they just start mashing previous things together, like Spider-Vader

Sorator13: @PharaohBender27 "my SSN is 5."

DaxStrife: I might respect Fortnite if the Star Wars stuff was all Andor-themed.
RandomTrivia: Also don't give them too much credit, they can just money to get whatever IP they want
Getter404: The weirdest part is that this is ostensibly marketing for ANDOR, the most un-Fortnite part of Star Wars
DigitalSeahorse: so many ips
RockPusher:
Disney like money and this isn't a digital card game 
PharaohBender27:

DigitalSeahorse: hehehehhe
JoTyler: lets you do your parachute
JoTyler: can glide out to farther places
Its_VeeBot: No Alex, YOU'RE the goat
bytecaster: So is there a lore reason why this island mashes up all those fictional realities?
DigitalSeahorse:
hide in it until they pummel it and you to death 
Garfman314: is there lore?
JoTyler: @bytecaster yupppp
JoTyler: there is
JoTyler: it's mostly its own story and world, and then sometimes there's IP presences on it
JoeKim: fortnite lore is actually hilariously solid
GasCityGaming: Does battlefront 2 from like 2019 still go online?
JoeKim: just suspend all disbelief
DigitalSeahorse: smooth like butter tracks
50keyz: nice
JoTyler: it's good to be tall
Its_VeeBot: Like fish in a barrel
BrowneePointz: James, please it's star wars, gotta hit us with the "It's Working! Iiiiit's Working!"
Sorator13: Well, the belly button of death isn't point at the planet, so it's probably fine?
DaxStrife: "Oh hey, the Death Star! ...How did Rogue One end, again?"
DigitalSeahorse: maybe death star is what's making the zones shrink
Getter404: @DaxStrife With a CGI Carrie Fisher muppet?
Garfman314: i feel like the apparent size of it in the sky implies some.... very closeness
Its_VeeBot:
Anyone remember when this game had a building mechanic? 
DaxStrife: @Getter404 That too.
GasCityGaming: love that the star wars theme takes away the need for ammo
bytecaster: @DigitalSeahorse I mean there is a storm ... storm troopers, there must be a connection
Diabore: stand and stare like "how dare"
Lord_Hosk: 8 plus you
BrowneePointz: I like it. Cuz there's basically no ammo in Star Wars Canon. There's TECHNICALLY battery packs for blasters
JoeKim: its giving you a false sense of security
GasCityGaming: yeah, similar to 40k las weapons
BrowneePointz: but a single Blaster Pack gives a normal soldier in Star Wars enough ammo for like an entire engagement and then plus
JoeKim: pubg does this too now tbh
Its_VeeBot: You're gonna start getting schooled, once the playerbase is done with their homework
dumbo3k: @BrowneePointz Technically, I don't think those are battery packs, but the gas they compress to make the blaster bolts
bytecaster: Also giving you wins to get you hooked
JoTyler: is it still spring break or was that last week lol
DiscordianTokkan: Yeah, they're DROIDS in Star Wars
JoeKim: depends on where in the country you are
Robot_Bones: uh oh Botties
NotCainNorAbel: Animated doll play?
DigitalSeahorse: botplay instead of buttplay?

bytecaster: Another win? Maybe you should go pro!
Its_VeeBot:

Garfman314: how many wins before humans?
TheAinMAP:

JoeKim: pro fortnite players are sweatyyyyy
BrowneePointz: Star Wars blasters don't need to use that much Gas per shot to throw plasma but the energy needed to EXCITE the gas is a lot. so Blaster Packs are like portable batteries @dumbo3k
rosesmcgee: This is as pro as it gets
DigitalSeahorse:

gsyhiap: omg Funko
BrowneePointz: Yea. They didn't pull a Mass Effect and have a ton of lore in the first game for why guns don't need Ammo and then immediately make ammo a mechanic in the sequel
JoeKim: skyhook is sick tho
JoeKim: so much fun
JoeKim: anti-blue backpack
JoeKim: lots of ridiculous stuff
bytecaster: Lets pump some power on strream!
JoTyler: gotta find an xwing
goombalax: the ability to revive squadmates was something Fortnite cribbed from apex
JoeKim: apex set a lot of really good standards for the battle royale genre too
KeytarCat:
tepid porridge 
DigitalSeahorse:

Cptasparagus: not BillysMom!
BrowneePointz: Apex made BR movement finally not feel like crap
DaxStrife: Alex: "I drive" [Crashes car in a ditch as "Nightcall" starts playing].
bytecaster: So, are these humans?
JoeKim: they're reacting like bots
A_Dub888: am I humans?
Cptasparagus: @bytecaster as much as twitch chat is
bytecaster: @JoeKim Well, I do too when playing a shooter and I like to think I'm not a bot
Blip2004: I dunno, people who are new/bad at games don't dodge either
KeytarCat: Love getting to first base
gsyhiap: Nelly wants to get to first base eh?
GasCityGaming: oh yeah, all the appliances sing nowadays
LordZarano: Can anyone that plays fortnite really be considered human?
jacqui_lantern234: lmao alex yes
baskwalla: Doesn't mean he went to first base...
GasCityGaming: my dishwasher sings me the song of its people when it's done (you can turn it off if you want)
jacqui_lantern234: BWAHAHA NELLY YES
DigitalSeahorse: someone's stove is singing?
DigitalSeahorse: xD
BrowneePointz: You can get Phasma'd Blaster there
BrowneePointz: Phasma's*

JoTyler: yup!
BrowneePointz: Yes
JoTyler: tie fighter too
DigitalSeahorse: nuuuu
JoeKim: full aerial combat
pn55:
Very slowly apparently 
JoeKim: these might be humans
bytecaster: Only people truly appreciate the elegance of the X-Wing after all
DigitalSeahorse: seems like human behavior
goombalax: the fighters have 3 "lives", so if you destroy them, they'll heal a couple times
BrowneePointz: but yea James for Nelly and Alex's edification you can get Phasma's blaster over at the First Order base they were at
gsyhiap: womp womp
TheAinMAP:

BrowneePointz: ewwww they have a Gojo skin

BrowneePointz: Jujutsu Kaisen? More like Ew-Justu Bye-then
DigitalSeahorse:

BrowneePointz: Jutsu*
HadesLeprechaun: now that you can die, games should go much faster!
JoeKim: simply kill them
DigitalSeahorse: maybe Jay will still be in it fighting bots cause that's all he streams
Garfman314: who's winning, james?
Its_VeeBot: POWERTHIRST!
Cptasparagus: I thought you said Paw Patrol
BrowneePointz: For Alex, he's a Fuck-ass Pretty Boy Mentor character from Jujutsu Kaisen
DiscordianTokkan: phrasing
DaxStrife: Shiny Happy Shafts
Cptasparagus: oh wow they demote you to bots?
DigitalSeahorse: that record surfer reminds me of an art I did back in college days
A_Dub888: James “We thirsting baby” Turner
jacqui_lantern234:
LOVE me a good shaft shine 
GasCityGaming: those slurp kegs give you shields when hit nearby
BrowneePointz: for chat that likes Pop, the new Cabo Citrus baja blast is *dangerously good* (it's like Mandarin-Lime)
Xan_The_Quiet: nearby in fortnite means within about 2 kilometers, so those blue chests are probably not going to be in that specific area
KeytarCat: Is the radio stream safe?
Its_VeeBot: AAAAAAND VOD muted
DarthRagnar815:

Cptasparagus: @BrowneePointz stores or just Tbell?
Getter404: There's going to be a vod?

WitchyTQ: me: yelling at my pc like its sports
Sogheim: sometimes I forget James is really good at clicking on heads
bytecaster: To be fair, there is A LOT going on
brainbosh: If only there was a default weapon you had to break stuff with lol
HadesLeprechaun: one would think with the sheer number of people streaming this, that it wouldn't be vod muted? unless there are streamer friendly settings to turn off copyright music
WitchyTQ: @HadesLeprechaun there is an option for this yeah
jacqui_lantern234: @WitchyTQ me: yelling at my pc like people can hear me loving them

MacbethSeemsSus: It's bedtime for a lot of the playerbase
Stormgod519: yeah, this is part of why I dont touch anything outside their PvE mode: people cannot be bothered to actually finish a game

@A_Dub888 haha Winnipeg 
tehfewl: Caps tomorrow, gotta watch that
PharaohBender27: @BrowneePointz They *probably* won't do that, but I would welcome such a move
DigitalSeahorse: arg
rogerivany: 4-3
sephyhallow: Sorry to betray BC, but LET'S GO OILERS!
KeytarCat: One of those OPs looks like a garysmod mfr
PharaohBender27: Also the idea of FLORIDA of all places having a hockey team seems wild to me.

sephyhallow: @PharaohBender27 They won the Stanley Cup last year!
JoTyler: goku
Stormgod519: already 5v4
PharaohBender27: @sephyhallow Still doesn't stop my bemusement over there being a Florida hockey team. It'd be like having a beach volleyball league from Alaska.
Its_VeeBot: Robodropped
DigitalSeahorse:

sephyhallow: @PharaohBender27 It's super wild. San Jose have one too (though they're terrible)
sephyhallow: Oh! And Anaheim, California.
DigitalSeahorse:

Its_VeeBot: @sephyhallow Anaheim: "We swear there's more than just a theme park here"
A_Dub888: hang on, if this is Valorant, why isn’t James playing Sova?
PharaohBender27: @sephyhallow Oh, I know about the San Jose Sharks. For some reason it's Florida and Las Vegas in particular that make me go "Wait, what?"
PharaohBender27: @A_Dub888 It's Fortnite's Valorant setting.
Getter404: oooh baby. a triple.
niccus: some sort of a james flanko
sephyhallow: @PharaohBender27 Vegas was a bunch of old rich men deciding to make a hockey team from rejected hockey players who they believed would go on to be great. That turned out to be a pretty good bet. Hockey lore is sometimes truly BONKERS.
DigitalSeahorse: drywall area is my favorite area so far
A_Dub888:
@pharaohbender27 Sova’s in Fortnite right? 
KeytarCat: Doesn't Sova do the scan ability? Like James's special grenade?
MacbethSeemsSus: Holding Octopus was a tough Metal Gear boss
HadesLeprechaun: You just need to play this mode until your rank is high enough that you're matched to other 5 stack teams that won't drop
lamina5432: how many legs on the octopus are open nelly

PharaohBender27: @sephyhallow I was going to go on about how much they'd have to spend in money and resources to just maintain a rink a hot desert, but then realized right . . . Vegas.
Stormgod519: what a toss
TheAinMAP:

Stormgod519: we stop lagging out and the whole team is dead lol...
pn55: Lag strats
Getter404: Unplug Router no Jutsu
Its_VeeBot: Waiting for the Half-Life 2 server disconnection timer
gsyhiap: His lag power is overwhelming
Stormgod519: damn, I wonder if they are actually DDOSing lol
WowoT: who's playing with the lag switch
NotCainNorAbel: and now we know why everyone left those games
vinewood_og: Detroit! I can't hear youuuuu!!!
Its_VeeBot: Does anyone else remember what I'm talking about? When Source Engine games lose connection to the server they show that red countdown in the top-right corner?
Stormgod519: its that famous queen song!
NotCainNorAbel:

Getter404: Death Stranding 2 viral marketing
gsyhiap: Sometimes you've just gotta work on your tan
HadesLeprechaun: yeah, Epic are just little guys, we shouldn't hold their game to a high standard
Its_VeeBot: It was James installing BonziBuddy
gsyhiap: *sounds of smashing glass*
Getter404: I saw another streamer have the USB decoupling noise on his stream deck and it was the most violent thing I ever heard
Stormgod519: because epic is kinda lazy...
Stormgod519: I think there is an unranked mode...
DigitalSeahorse:

Stormgod519: you have to toggle ranked or unranked in the menu after choosing the mode
Stormgod519: that might be it
PharaohBender27:
@HadesLeprechaun Missing an emote there 
LostThePirate: @Stormgod519 It's not laziness; it's the upper management not wanting to sacrifice profits to pay for improvements... Same as many problems under capitalism, lol.
Stormgod519: I have not played ballistic, I only play their stw mode, but I know that's how they do unranked stuff for their normal modes...?
Stormgod519: @LostThePirate yeah. More so laziness on the corporate end, not the developer end
Stormgod519: 5v2 already
Getter404: If they're willing to play through and not eat a leaver penalty, I say give them a match. Invoke a 2v2 maybe?
niccus: i can't believe the lrr stack killed ballistics mode
odhtate: I haven't played fortnite in years, since when is it CSGo?
JoTyler: @odhtate fortnite has a ton of game modes now lol
KeytarCat: @odhtate early access
DigitalSeahorse:

gsyhiap:

Getter404: Are we *sure* it's not AI
TheAinMAP:

rosesmcgee: Now you gotta say "lock in" and then get dumpstered. Then highlights
Stormgod519: @Getter404 they dont do bots for this mode
sephyhallow: wowza
Stormgod519: wow
sephyhallow: well now it's 2v2

DigitalSeahorse:

Stormgod519: W
gsyhiap:

JoTyler: alex
JoTyler: he has a crown over his name
HadesLeprechaun: theres a "..." when you hovered
Getter404: Do the three dots do anything?
gsyhiap: The dots?
Stormgod519: 3 dots?
DigitalSeahorse:

gsyhiap: "you have to toggle ranked or unranked in the menu after choosing the mode"
Stormgod519: I had thought you could tag the mode and within it swap between ranked and unranked
JoTyler: in modes like Zero Build, when you click on it you can change to ranked or unranked, but i think since this says Ranked int eh name it's probably only that
gsyhiap: Was what was said
Stormgod519: Ballistic might not have an unranked mode, which is kinda wild
HadesLeprechaun: looks like it used to exist, but they removed it to fix issues
Stormgod519: oh it got buggyy
Stormgod519: ah, I see
gsyhiap: Were the issues that no-one was playing it? 🤔
Stormgod519: hi Jade
Stormgod519: @gsyhiap considering some of their other mainstream game modes, I can assure you that wouldn't be a concern (looks at their racing game)
Stormgod519: wait until you get the Pink Teddybear version fo that loading screen
