I would like to apologize to all the players who saw this and immediately went to the comments.
leZyfex was right - it's not funny, it's scary. It would have been more logical to send this post on Halloween, but it is what it is.
Happy April Fools' Day to everyone, be kinder otherwise I'll write to Epic and ask them to add this UI to the game. Bye.

It's not that scary. UI parity would mean Epic actually wants StW to feel like the other gamemodes and actually get played, meaning more players, more focus, and potentially a resurgence for the game

Nobody is against mode parity or StW integration into exciting Fortnite metaverse. Everyone is against making blend, corporate UI in a game that used to be an example of great UI+Artstyle. All those uneven-shaped buttons, playful fonts and great game-design basics were replaced with rounded buttons, boring fonts and lack of visual/sound effects. The game itself just lost it's soul, that's why people don't want them to touch the last remains of OG UI.

Oh, the UI is bad. But I would much rather take a dogwater corporate UI and renewed support for the game over simply... nothing

Jokes aside, i hate the new modernizing the ui, but this actually looks super well done, imo way better than the current ui

Calling 1 poor guy in the basement of epic headquarters a team is too pompous...

I mean I feel like the best part of this would be shop access without leaving STW 🤣

Amazing. But it would be even better if STW was simply integrated into the main Fortnite lobby, and each regular and venture zone was only available to select in Discovery as separate games. The button to call upon the unique STW menu interfaces could be tucked in a corner specifically and only appear when you selected one of the STW zones.

I would also propose adding thematic fun maps like "Red vs Blue: Plankerton FFA" or "Twine Pit: Gungame" 😍🤩🙏🏼🙏🏼

New collaboration universe available in UEFN: Save The World by Epic Games! Create your own wacky adventures with Ray and friends, with the new Save The World assets and resources! You can also keep all the revenue, we don't care about them anyways!

Okay so it took literal YEARS for a simple STW UI update while they kept drastically flipping around battle royal’s UI every 2 seasons to fk with us..
Edit: I’m an idiot!

I mean.... If done right... (But at the same time, I'd hate to lose the last relic of old Fortnite design)

I wish it were true. I like the OG style, but this way it will look like STW is part of Fortnite and not a forgotten annex.

u/Logical-Dealer-78 9d ago
Honestly, I don't mind it. But I will say, it is nice to load up STW every once and a while and use the old menus.

OP, if any epic dev sees this and add this Hulu 💀 modern day COD💀 stupid 💀 waisted 10 trillion dollars on something that was fine as it was 💀 lookin UI, I'd rather see them remove STW entirely, I absolutely hate this UI with every fiber in my atoms.
Here I was keeping an eye out for anything on this day

Did they implement the movements of this chapter besides rolling the wall jump and scaling the walls and such ?. And can we keep our numbers up or whatever we're doing to show her yes we'd like more stw updates.

I'm conflicted. On the one hand it looks kinda better in some ways, but o the other hand, I hate change and never wanna see this become a reality
