- What's up, everyone?
I'm Ninja.
I'm here to answer all of your questions
about Fortnite on Twitter.
This is Fortnite Support.

AnishaMarie3001 asks, "Ninja,
so I'm trying to learn
"how to play with mouse
and keyboard on Fortnite,
"and I was wondering what control setups
"do you use or prefer?"
The control setup.
I don't really think there is
a control setup for mouse and keyboard.
I'm just gonna tell you what
my keybinds are right now off the rip.
So Shift is my pyramid,
I have autorun enabled
because that's how I obviously
have Shift as something else.
So definitely enable autorun.
Q is my platform and my
two side mouse buttons
are my wall and my
ramp, which are arguably
the most important building keybinds.
So if you have mouse, highly
recommend getting a mouse
with two or three buttons on it
and make sure you map two
of your building options
to your mouse buttons.
Boop.
This question is from
ForkBuns, @TwitchForkBuns
who says, "You can be good at Fortnite,
"but you'll never be good enough.
"How do you compete with people
"who have over half a
month of in-game time?
"That's legit 16 days of your life."
#Fortnite.
I mean you're not going to
be better than those players.
You know what I mean?
I mean, it's one of those things.
You just kinda have to accept that, right?
I mean like, if I'm a basketball player
and I practice one hour a day
and LeBron plays 10 hours,
12 hours a day because
it's like, it's his job.
I can't complain about how
he's gonna be better than me
when he has all day to play.
You know what I mean?
It's like one of those
things where it's just like,
dude, it's just, it's the way of the road.
Oh no!
@FuzzyM0nst3r with a three as the E says,
"@FortniteGaming question:
"how do you shoot down a loot carrier
"from 50 meters on mobile?
"They fall out of rendered distance."
#HelpNeeded, #Support,
#Fortnite, #Challenge, #NoCanDo.
Maybe a little less hashtags.
I don't think you can
do anything about that.
I think it's just, you
know, stop playing mobilly
and get a Xbox or a PC
to fix that issue, Fuzzy,
but I know that's not
the answer that you want.
Unfortunately, there's no
answer that I can provide.
You know what, let me just give a call,
a quick call to Epic Games
and see if they can patch
that for you though.
ZIVOL Official asks, "What's
the best landing spot
"for competitive Fortnite?"
First of all, you need to know
who you're playing against.
If there's just gonna
be random tournaments,
and you don't know exactly who
is gonna get in your lobbies,
I think that you just wanna
go with what's going to be
the least contested that
will get you the most loot.
Don't go for the heavily
contested unless you are truly
the best player in the game.
Someone lands and gets
a better weapon than you
and then just ruins your tournament,
it's really unfortunate
because you're landing
at a heavily contested spot.
IJGemini says, "So I suck at Fortnite
"quick editing/building.
"I watch people build Hollywood mansions
"in five seconds flat
"while I'm taking five minutes to do a 90.
"Any advice for the
building/editing unendowed."
Just sit in Creative for 30
minutes a day in the mornings
and at nights and just
practice your building.
It's that easy.
Just sit there and just build.
Listen to some music and just
crank out your 90's, man.
You will learn, you will perfect it.
I promise you.
It's exactly what I had to
do when I started falling off
building wise and editing wise.
I just sat in creative
and practiced it, man.
You gotta work for it.
I know you're looking
for a quick, easy tip
or something that's just gonna
make you improve immediately
and that doesn't exist.
Build forever so that you
can, you put down a wall
and then you just practice your
editing and your unediting,
your editing and your
unediting over and over again.
Rinse and repeat.
Ooh, @HilbilyRunAmok says,
"How does anyone play in a
random squad in #Fortnite?
"I'm just barely above being a bot,
"and I rarely get in a
squad that outlasts me
"and is more than six years old."
This is an interesting question,
but I definitely know that
there are a lot of younger kids
that do squad fill.
Hilbily, my advice to you
would be to do some squad fills
and try to find people
who aren't six years old
and whenever you do get
those teammates in your game,
try to you know, connect
with them, add them,
and start running games with them,
and then eventually you're
gonna build up a squad
of people that you can game with,
and not do squad fills with.
That's what I did back
in the day in Halo 2
when I was, I mean this is
like 10, 12, 13 years ago,
maybe more, 15 years ago.
I needed to play a team
of Hardcore of matchmaking
with other people so I would just go in,
and once I found someone
who I kinda connected with,
I'd be like, "Yo, man,
"You're good, you wanna run?"
And then boom, there you go.
Try it out.
MrAppieGaming says, "what is
your main skin in Fortnite?"
There's a female Ninja skin in
the game that's pretty dope.
I think that I use her the most.
@GalaxyShadowGG says, "Anyone know what
"this symbol means on Fortnite?"
Dude, I literally just
asked this question.
I was doing squad fills the other day.
I don't know, I don't
know what that means.
It's like, it's just a globe.
I think it might mean that
someone maybe from another server
is playing on a server that
they shouldn't be playing on
so they just have a globe icon?
I don't know what that means.
It's not mobile.
It kinda looks like a controller.
It might be the new PS4?
Your guess is as good as mine, man,
but it's definitely not PC
and I don't think it's Xbox.
We have a question from MrCsCelebQs.
Said "@Ninja, how did you get
so good at playing Fortnite?
"From Jayden, age nine."
That's a really good question.
I've been playing video
games my entire life.
I'm 28 years old and you learn
a lot about different gaming
play styles as you play
different games, and honestly,
I've just put the time in my entire life
to be good at video games.
The more you play, the
better you're going to get
and when you do play, actually
try to improve your game.
There are two ways you
can play video games:
you can play casually or
you can play competitively,
and if you're just playing casually
and you're messing around
and you're landing in the same spots
and you're farming the same way
and you use the same guns all the time
and you never change anything
and you never actually
try to improve, you're not
going to improve, right?
So you need to honestly
actively work on, you know,
your shooting, your building
and your knowledge of the map
and rotating and things like that.
So, yeah.
Put the time in, practice hard
and actively try to improve.
@Krawley4 asks, "Hello mate.
"Can you tell me how to improve
my aim in Fortnite, please?"
Question mark, crying face.
For me, with any sensitivity
or any aiming issues,
what you wanna do is you wanna start
at a lower sensitivity, right?
If you really can't just
hit, you can't hit [beeps]
just lower your sensitivity
and you won't be able to miss, literally.
It'd be so slow that you should be
hitting everything that you're aiming at.
When you're eliminated
because your aim is too slow,
you bump it up just a little bit.
Then once you've moved it up a little bit,
take a little bit of getting used to,
but then once you get eliminated again
because your aim is too slow,
you bump it up a little bit
and then eventually you're
gonna keep doing this,
you're gonna keep going back and forth
until you find the perfect medium.
You finally got a good
sensitivity where now your aim
is pretty solid and you're
no longer getting eliminated
because your sensitivity is too slow.
It's a lot easier to go
from down up than to go from
an incredibly high sensitivity
and work your way down
so try it out, let me know.
@ModdedPotato asks,
"What's your favorite Fortnite loadout?
"If you play, if you don't, that's fine,
"Here's mine."
For me, my favorite loadout has gotta be
the Flapjackie, the Flapjackie back bling
in the black and white
with the Chrono Contrail
and also the same glider that
you have, the Pixel Glider.
It's definitely one of my favorites.
Good job, good taste.
@WhatYouDoAesji says,
"What is most important in Fortnite?
"Mechanics or game sense?"
Good question.
They're both important.
You need to focus on them both.
I think your game sense will
let you live and last longer
in your lobbies.
However, mechanics are going
to be how you win those games.
You cannot win a game
solely off of game sense
or you will win less
games, so focus on both.
@LilLuiso asks, "If I wanna play #Fortnite
"just to chill with the
friends, what do I have to do?
"Play Team Rumble?
"Oh wait, is there skill-based matchmaking
"in Team Rumble too, @FortniteGame?"
Little Luiso, I feel your pain here, man,
and Team Rumble is definitely going to be
the chillest playlist, but
also I mean if you're playing
with your friends and
you're just chilling,
shouldn't you be able to play squads?
Like, I mean, how good are you, I guess?
But I understand what you're saying, man.
I don't agree with the
skill-based matchmaking.
It does make the lobbies a lot sweatier.
Skill-based matchmaking
right now is basically adding
longer queues, you're playing
against tougher players
if you're a good player
and it's basically turning
into Arena without siphon mode
and that's kind of what Arena is for,
is for those competitive
and sweaty matches.
Only time will tell, man.
@FireMonkey says, "What
strats do you use in Fortnite?
"For me, I hide under stairs and in bushes
"like the true bot that I am."
That's the beautiful
thing about Fortnite, man,
is you can play however you want.
If you wanna bush camp, you
wanna hide under stairs,
you can do that.
I still highly recommend
learning how to build
and learning how to shoot so that
when you do get in situations
where someone finds you
under those stairs, you
can win those fights.
So.
Our next and final question
comes from NotKaiSZN.
So what is the best shotgun in Fortnite?
It's a great question, dude, all right?
The answer is they're all good.
The Palms shotgun is
great if you have an SMG
and an AR, but if you only
have like an infantry rifle
and a sniper rifle and you
don't have a spray gun,
you need a shotgun
that's gonna shoot faster
which is where the Tac
Shotgun comes in, bro.
So it all depends on your playstyle.
What do you like?
Do you wanna be able to one-punch someone?
Do you wanna be able to shoot
multiple shotgun shots if you miss one?
Figure it out, feel it out.
I personally love the pump shotgun.
All right, everyone.
That is, that is it for today.
Thank you guys for all of your questions
and I hope you guys
keep enjoying Fortnite.
Thanks for watching.
