The Intro - A Fortnite Story

This is a fan-made Fortnite Battle Royale story in which I do not own any of the characters or anything used in the story. This is an intro to that story. Hope you enjoy! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Setting: Season 1 No Location It was peaceful on the Battle Royale map, not much happened, and in case anything did, Aerial Assault Troopers and Renegade Raiders handled it.

The other side is saying that you don't have control over the seasons, because they change weekly, so it is one of the worst things to happen to the series.              For the group that likes the implementation of seasons, it makes the world more dynamic and feel more alive.

Overall, a large amount of the people who feel that way will eventually come around later throughout the game's lifespan, as long as the seasons live up to the hype.              The only bad thing about uncontrollable seasons is that, the chance for you to not like one of the seasons exists, and for t
