"The blog said that fundamental shift in the flow of matches was an experiment. "Here's something different: this season's BR is 80 players instead of 100 on the more compact map. The vibe so far? Faster rotations, more meaningful fights, and less time running across empty fields. This is an experiment--we plan to return to 100 players next season--but we wanted to see what happens when we concentrate the action.""
"Fortnite Battle Royale will return to a more typical experience once the current Simpsons mini-season ends at the end of November, according to a blog posted on the Fortnite Status Twitter account, with the game slated to return to 100-player rounds and a much roomier island. The launch of Fortnite's Simpsons-themed mini-season at the beginning of November introduced some dramatic changes to the rhythm of Battle Royale matches, thanks largely to the size of the map."
Fortnite Battle Royale will revert to 100-player rounds and a larger island when the Simpsons mini-season ends on November 29 and Chapter 7 begins. The Simpsons mini-season introduced Springfield island, roughly half the land area of the Chapter 6 island, and temporarily reduced match size to 80 players, concentrating combat and accelerating rotations. The compact map created dense early-game encounters and made landing at named locations more likely to meet opponents. Epic framed the change as an experiment and announced plans to restore the traditional player count and roomier island next season. Two Simpsons-themed weapons were temporarily added to the loot pool.
