Season 8 of Fortnite? It’s been
one of our favourites so far and
if you haven’t jumped onto
the island for a while you’ve
simply got to check out the
latest additions. Last month we
took you through the big map
changes, but as is Epic Games’
way, the tweaks have kept on
coming.The most exciting addition has
been The Baller. This giant glass
ball rolls across the map quite
fast, but then the grappler at
the end of it allows you to leap
big distances and even swing
around objects like trees. If
used correctly it can become
a huge advantage in combat,
allowing you to quickly flank
opponents, create a distraction
for your teammates or just get
very high quickly.A newgun,theFlint-Knock
Pistol, has also added an
intriguing new dynamic to
combat. When you fire it,
you are knocked away from
the direction you shot quite
a distance. It can also knock
your opponent back, too, if you
are close enough. Obviously
it’s quite a handy way to stay
mobile and keep your distance
during combat, or quickly jump
up high. But it can be used in
other interesting ways. For
example, when you are falling
from a great height you can
shoot it at the ground just
before you land so you get no
damage.Elsewhere, it’s all been about
the World Cup. The qualifying
rounds have now started,
with Solo and Duos weekendsalternating with each other,
and everyone in the world
free to give it a go and to
see if they can get enough
points to make the World
Cup. There’s a million dollars
up for grabs each week, too,
and one spot in the final
World Cup available to an
Aussie each week.How are your skills? Reckon
you can make the World
Cup? If you want to learn
more about the World
Cup, get tips and tricks
