These are the reasons why you suck in Fortnite OG

1-5

Different gameplay

5. Different gameplay

The OG mode brings back a completely different gameplay experience with old-school weapons, the classic map, and a slower overall pace. If you're not willing to grind for long hours to master the old meta, you'll struggle to keep up. | © Epic Games

Sweety players

4. Sweety players returning

The OG mode has brought back sweety players who dominated Fortnite during the early days. These players are now out for blood, which significantly increases your chances of running into someone who knows the map and mechanics inside out. | © Epic Games

Poor Zero Build

3. Poor optimization for Zero Build

If you're a chill guy, the OG mode feels like a significant letdown. Poor optimization for Zero Build makes the experience frustrating, leaving you at a disadvantage in what should be a fun, laid-back way to enjoy Fortnite. | © Epic Games

Lack of loot

2. Lack of loot

The lack of loot is a harsh reality in OG mode, and this is what makes it unplayable even for sweaty players. You'll often struggle just to find enough bullets for your pistol, which contrasts with C6S1, where loot and chests are available even in the smallest POI. | © Epic Games

No SBMM

1. No SBMM

Fortnite OG mode initially lacked skill-based matchmaking, forcing chill guys to compete against sigma OG players. While SBMM was added two days ago, it hasn’t improved the experience much, as lobbies are now overwhelmingly filled with bots. Sometimes they make up 50% to 90% of the lobby, which isn't fun unless you look for opponents with a skill level of a child. | © Epic Games

1-5

If you were anticipating Fortnite OG like it was your ultimate Christmas gift, only to find it sucks, these might be the reasons why.
