Fortnite Makes Change to Godzilla

Summary

  • Godzilla’s spawn rate in Fortnite has been nerfed to 60%, eliciting mixed reactions from players.
  • The adjustment may be to address the overpowered nature of playing as Godzilla in matches.
  • The spawn rate fluctuated from 40% to 100% before settling at 60% for possible balance.

Apparently, Godzilla’s spawn rate has been nerfed to 60% in Fortnite Battle Royale matches. It’s clear that this new Fortnite event is a popular one, since it seems to be getting consistent tweaks from the development team. Although many players want to have fun with the Godzilla crossover, it’s just as important to make sure that the game offers balance.

Many movie fans were happy to see a Fortnite x Godzilla collaboration, adding another iconic character to the many options available in the catalog of Fortnite crossovers. While players have fun with their new Godzilla skins, others have been focused on what changes the Godzilla collaboration makes to gameplay. The option to play as Godzilla mixes up how one might tackle strategy during Fortnite games, since playing as Godzilla is a neat way to try defending squad mates while also focusing on eliminating as many players as possible, but it puts a large target on a single player’s back, whether in a squad or solo. In addition, Godzilla’s presence means that several special items will drop, so no matter what, it’s a win for many players.

Fortnite Players Have an Idea to Improve Godzilla

Fortnite fans take to social media to share their thoughts on how Epic Games could improve the way Godzilla functions in the popular battle royale.

Fortnite source ShiinaBR shares that Godzilla’s spawn rate has dropped down to 60% in Battle Royale matches, causing various reactions online. It seems that some players are tired of Godzilla’s presence in matches, and are celebrating the fact that fewer players will have the opportunity to play as the creature, but others have expressed disappointment since Godzilla has been a highlight of recent Fortnite matches for many people.

Godzilla Gets Nerfed in Fortnite

It’s unclear what the motivation to lower Godzilla’s spawn rate is, whether it’s that not enough people have been playing as the character, or whether too many people are jumping at the opportunity when Godzilla’s portal opens up during matches. It seems like the latter is a likelier possibility, considering how much damage can be done when playing as Godzilla. When taking control of the character, it’s possible to rack up a high number of eliminations in a very short amount of time with little consequence if skilled enough, since being defeated as Godzilla doesn’t actually cause the player to lose a match.

Godzilla’s spawn rate has bounced around lately. According to Fortnite sources such as HypeX and ShiinaBR, on January 17, Godzilla’s spawn rate was about 40% before being bumped up to 100% by January 24. Settling at 60% may be a proper balance between these rates. Choosing to make Godzilla spawn less often seems like a satisfactory way to adjust the event without nerfing the actual gameplay so that characters can continue to enjoy Godzilla’s overpowered qualities for as long as it’s available.
