Ok thanks for the information Jake! I personally think for comp this is a great change and maybe should stay like that for the remainder of the season. For pubs however this is awful because it jeopardises opportunities to reset a fight that isn’t going your way. Like u said, maybe Fortnite can only make it like this for both modes but I just think that a multi-billion dollar worth company can surely implement a change to one mode separately? Anyway, again thanks for the info! 😊
Pointless. Even if they dont respawn thwy can still farm surge with cacti to a extent. Especially the groups of cacti or the ones that are close together. Theres spots on the map if you know were to look.. Meanwhile pub games get nerfed for no reason.. An all the day before fncs finals too. This is stupid move on epics part imo.. Should of waited till they can do a proper correction to the state of the game.
Thank you for posting educational Fortnite videos, they’ve really helped me out this season, and my entire zero build journey thus far as a whole. Not to be egotistical or anything, but I went from like 30 crowns to 60 in just a week which I think you played a role in, which is amazing and really shows that your videos help! Keep it up! :)
Lowkey this actually kind of scuffs my solo drop now. Heavily relied on the slurp cactus so i could carry an extra slot for a while early game. Looks like im playing creative all weekend 😢
I’m going to drive through the desert biomes hot spots and hit all the cactuses just because 😈😂 all jokes aside though this isn’t a great change, but I’m glad it’s only temporary. The cactus is a cool in game item.
This is kind of cool. I was in a match the other day where at endgame there were 4 cars zooming around, targeting the cacti over and over. Those fights took so long that the diameter of the final circle was so small that one zip from the nitro gloves took you out of zone. That was tense.
I actually had a public match activate surge one time. Or at least it was throwing up warnings saying surge was going to activate. It only happened once. And I don't remember why or what I was doing in the match that might have caused the warning to pop up like that. I was Very confused. lol.
Oh the way I've understood storm surge when I've watched vids in the past is that just the 1 team with lowest damage takes storm surge, rather then just all the teams under the threshold. (I thought the threshold was just showing the lowest team how much damage do they need to get above the second lowest team, and then everyone else is just getting the lowest teams damage to try to stay above that). But i guess i understood it wrong?
Personally? I kinda wish this was always like this. I remember getting into a fight with someone who had the nitro medallion, mythic nitro fists, and the ride the lightning guitar. Their whole strat was to chip people from afar, and them reset the fight after taking the smallest bit of damage, and since it was in the wasteland area, they just kept kept hitting all the cactuses And since I had the machinist medallion, the fight lasted FOREVER, and i eventually died because i kept chasing I've been hating on those cactuses ever since lol
Thank you Jake. This helped me so much. I actually lost my game b/c of this. I was waiting for the cactus and I had barely any health and this bad kid ended up killing me. I was so mad but this makes a lot more sense! 😂
Get surge? The way you said that just confused my brain. I know what you meant I promise. But to me when you phrase it that way it sounds like you want to be one of the people below the threshold taking damage and having your match ruined. Ha ha ha ha. I understood after you explained it. But I would have never said it that way. lol.
Exactly like wtf how can they hit you with them, but you cant hit them at all, and were in an open/flat area, no elevation changes no obstacles… it makes no sense. They dont need to make a patch/bug fix/update to modify that crap either, just remove it entirely. YER DONE. BYE BYE. 👋 GOOD RIDDANCE GONE TO THE DEPTHS OF HELL TO NEVER RETURN
Competitive changes for professional players should not effect public lobbies.
True
genuinely. they're a squillion-dollar company, surely they can separate it out.
Ah yes but when there is busted items pro players are told to adapt too it 😂
@@hoshino-e-5and yall didn’t, that’s why the grenades were nerfed
@@hoshino-e-5 separate those out too then idgaf
Literally sat near the slurp cacti for like 2 minutes wondering why it wasn't regrowing 💀💀
Me too 😂😂😂 I was like 20 something HP starving for it

Broo I was riding around earlier like where the heck are all the cactus at !?! I thought my game was bugged !!
I just learned this the hard way. Went for a medallion in the storm. Long story short, we didn’t get the medallion lol
It's always someone that ruins it for everyone else smh.

I hate how they mess with pubs to make comps better
Super annoying. That triple cactus has saved me so many times. Glad I’m off to Ibiza this weekend so less of a deal for me rn.
So we can nerf the cactus but we can't get rid of the Magneto gloves that do AOE and hit you for 95..
No magneto gloves in comp
go play something else, waaaaa nerf this nerf that fn hate ppl like u

I was wondering why I couldn't find any earlier today. I drove around FOREVER and barely found 2 or 3 of them.
Yoo bro I just wanna say I really like the videos where U spectate other players🔥👍🏾 but I like Ur content in general 😃
Thank you I posted one of those videos yesterday!
@@EvolveJake yeah, I watched that one 😃👍🏾

Literally never understood what storm surge was until this, thank you for explaining it to me like I was 5 I needed that 😂
W video Jake. It’s a little tilting that they didn’t seperate the change between comp and pubs but I think I’ll survive one weekend.

Thx for the info, learned alot!
Why would Fortnite not put that update in the game? I died twice today waiting for the 3 cacti to respawn
I just wish that they would’ve let people know that because I got killed because of that
So thank you for letting people know and they also so far what I found out is that the magnets as well?
Hey Epic, can you please do something about the Magneto Gloves, they feel kinda overpowered.
Epic Games: Sure, we'll nerf the cactus!
I actually had a public match activate surge one time. Or at least it was throwing up warnings saying surge was going to activate. It only happened once. And I don't remember why or what I was doing in the match that might have caused the warning to pop up like that. I was Very confused. lol.
And yes.. You're my fortnite news...😂

Thanks for the update, Jake 👍
That's why I couldn't find them 😭😭😭
Wow... I was just playing earlier and the 3 cacti wouldn't re spawn.. I thought it was a glitch...
Your my favourite Fortnite player
Jake! Thank you for the good update!
I knew I wasn't crazy, I was wondering why all the plants were gone.
Fncs will be more fun to watch I suppose, cant believe he tried healing in you're game and still died.❤
Just discovered this earlier.
Also aswell even if your at full health you can on purpose destroy them so noone else can use it that be something I'll do

I've been hating on those cactuses ever since lol
Just barely saw this, was wondering why cactus would stop slurping me
Why can’t they just nerf the cars 😢
I had full health, and one hit from the mangeto Gloves insta killed me. i never had that happened before
What's your creator code?
Ty for info cactus and car heal boxes are so OP this season😂
Thank you Jake. This helped me so much. I actually lost my game b/c of this. I was waiting for the cactus and I had barely any health and this bad kid ended up killing me. I was so mad but this makes a lot more sense! 😂
I’m commenting a cactus emoji for the algo 🌵
What day is the Grand Finals?
Saturday and Sunday.
When you have to nerf cactuses you know you have screwd the game badly. 😂😂😂
Oh no 😭
This sucks.
If they want to encourage fighting, how about making the fighting more interesting instead of these insta kills?

Car mods should have like a 3 uses limit for the whole match
I would rather fight a car then the damn mag gloves.

@@natewuester1615 Which means they be be around FOREVER!
I honestly think chapter 6 work gonna go back to hit scan weapons
I hope so I can't stand bullet drop guns it just doesn't feel like fortnite, and hoping they get rid of weapon attachments as well.
First maybe
