As planned, Epic Games has released the new season of fortnite, number 4 of chapter 2. Epic does not intend to change the move it made on August 13 by integrating its own shopping system bypassing the guidelines of the App Store.
As the application is not available for download, this could not update to the new season, so despite the fact that you can continue playing (at least for now) you can not buy the new battle pass, a battle pass that includes a large number of Marvel heroes such as Ironman, Wolverine, Thor ...
But this not the only problem users face that they only enjoy this game from an iPhone or iPad, since in addition, cross-play is also not available with non-Apple devices. In this way, it is only possible to play with other users who enjoy this title from a Mac or iOS device.
If you usually play with friends who have a Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, an Android terminal or a PC, you can start forgetting to play with your friends again. Once again it is shown how the battle between two large companies ends up ultimately harming the end user.
If you open the game on your iPhone or iPad, you will see how the battle pass box is disabled. If you enter a game, the map still shows the same location names as in the previous season. When inviting a friend who does not use an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, this You will not be able to join because you have an old version of the game.
Epic Games has confirmed the end of this functionality to The Verge. For now, and despite what the judge said last Monday, you can continue playing Fortnite on iOS devices, but we don't know until when. It is likely that tomorrow the 28th, it will stop working completely, the day on which the deadline that Apple gave Epic to reconsider before eliminating its developer account expires.
But do not advertise so much fortnite, as not all of us play it and they are giving it "free" advertising, simply if they do not comply with the rules, they go out of the store that simple.
"Dad, for my birthday I want a mobile, but I want a good one that can play Fortnite."
You'll see what laughs. The poor children whose parents do not find out or pass "because PUBG is the same" are going to be disappointed.
I still remember when I delayed the release of Fortnite on Android for a few months to favor the sale of iPhones and now they try to minimize the importance of the game.
Whether we like it or not among children, it carries a lot of weight. When all his friends play Fortnite and yours can't even though you've given him an incredible phone, tell me.
As I said in other news, Apple will have to give in sooner or later, by hook or by crook. It cannot be that Netflix and other audiovisual platforms are at ease with their content and pricing plans, but instead with video games, Apple must be paid a toll for each transaction.
The sooner they equate the situation to Netflix and so on, the better. Users don't need to pay for it (literally).
