There's so much cheating in Fortnite it's getting unplayable.
Been regularly playing for some years now and always encountered the occasional cheater, aim hacker, teamer and the likes. Although it’s never nice it was bearable.
This season is different: Getting beamed in three clean headshots from 80 metres away with a green ar while moving behind cover… Watching such players after elimination constantly hitting headshots over 50 metres while running and jumping wildly… Getting hit in bushes and trees without line of sight… And that happens nearly every fucking match. Reporting is pointless, epic is not even trying to contain the problem. Selling skins is more profitable, of course it is.
It’s so annoying when you just want to run around and have some shoot outs, and then some people who barely know how to navigate the map eliminate you out of the corner of their eyes.
If anyone knows a nice and relaxing shooter that runs on Switch 2 please let me know. Thanks.

I don’t have any suggestions to fill the void but good on you for trying to stop. Good luck. I hope someone knows just the game for you.

I totally get you. What really helped me was playing a shitton of single player shooters.

Are you looking for multiplayer specifically? If not, Borderlands might be a good fit for a fairly casual shooter.

Haven’t played an MP game in over a year. And cheating is a partial reason why …

Thankfully Tim Sweeney kept it off of Linux due to cheating concerns.
