"So..what should we do here?" Petter asked Ned, puzzled as he looked around.
Ned was also quite confused, not knowing very well what he should do. Fortunately, a few seconds later appeared a floating screen in front of them.
[Welcome to Fortnite, this location is the Hub where you can invite up to 3 friends to form a team. With the formation of a team, you will be able to join in the queue to play with other players.]
[Since you participate in the Beta version of the game, the online game function will be temporarily disabled.]
"We won't be able to play?" Ned is confused as he wonders what's the point of inviting him to the game if he can't even play.
But imagining this doubt, another screen appeared next.
[Here players can participate in training on the features and mechanics of the Fortnite game.]
[In: 13 hours, 57 minutes and 21 seconds, a tournament will start between 100 participants of the Closed Beta. Take your time to learn this game, limited prizes will be given.]
"So there's going to be a tournament?!" Peter was very excited.
But Ned noticed something else. "It seems that the tournament prize will be a limited item, meaning it will probably be as rare for Fortnite as the Ender Dragon skin for Minecraft!"
Hearing this, Petter was not only shocked, but the millions of people watching the live broadcast were also stunned.
They knew how important Ender Dragon skins were in Minecraft, so seeing them skip that award in Fortnite left many people a little disappointed.
[Do you want to start a tutorial?]
A window appeared for Ned and Petter.
With not much to do, both accept.
After a second, the two find themselves on the school bus.
"What'sthis? Are we going to the battlefield by bus?" asked Ned confused.
But shortly afterwards Petter replied in shock. "Ned, look out the window…"
Ned looked at the window and froze.
Unlike Minecraft where they see the world as a block, although the graphics are a bit realistic, it still looks like an animated world, but Fortnite is different, although it still looks a bit cartoonish, but it still looks a bit cartoonish, Alex made it very realistic using the Game Engine Battle Royal Triple A.
So while Petter and Ned were talking, it seemed like there really was someone in front of them.
This was a bit strange for Ned, who was looking at a tall, blond man with the voice of baby Petter, but even stranger to Petter, who saw a beautiful brown haired woman speaking with the voice of her friend Ned. .
When Ned looked out the window, in his mind what he saw was the real world!
The small ones are full of little dots like cities, prisons, for some reason giant wooden chairs and other things.
[This is a bus that will take players to the battlefield.]
[You and your friends can make a mark on the map just by thinking about it, thus forming a colored light pillar in the place you have marked, so that communication about the location becomes easier. Try to mark it on the map.]
A moment later the red symbol appeared, and at the same time the blue symbol appeared elsewhere, signifying that Petter was also successful.
[Very good. On the bus you will have 60 seconds to decide to jump, if 60 seconds is up and you are still on the bus, all the windows will open at the same time sucking all the remaining players out.]
[You have 20 seconds to jump.].
[You have 19 seconds to jump.].
Looking at the countdown, Ned was shocked to look down, while Petter was still a little better, as he was not too afraid of heights.
"Come on Ned, it looks like fun!" petter said excitedly as he walked to the front door of the bus, which had lights indicating they could jump.
Ned tried to calm himself down while taking trembling steps towards the bus door.
[Lol, stop fearing Ned, jump!]
[Damn it, I would never dare to jump from there, it's too realistic!]
[I don't think I need a bungee jump anymore and I can have fun in this new game lmao.]
[…]
Seeing the audience mocking him, Ned took a deep breath and started running towards the door, even surprising Petter, who immediately left with Ned and jumped straight away.
"Yahhhhhhh!!!" Ned let out a terrified scream as he felt the wind pound his face and the gravity pulled him faster.
"Geez!" Ned heard Petter laughing in his ear, as if he was wearing AirPods.
"Stop laughing, Petter!" Ned yelled in anger.
[When in Free Fall, you can use your body to control where you want to go by bending over, slowing your fall by staying parallel to the ground, or accelerating it by staying vertical.]
[On your left waist there is a Glider that will expand when the button is pressed, this will slow down your falling speed, allowing you to fly further.]
[When you reach 100 meters from the ground, the Glider will automatically open and stick to your body, only closing when you touch the ground, WEB, so control your falling speed well so as not to be shot before hitting the ground by a player who has a faster fall.]
After this initial shock, Ned and Petter learn that there are weapons on the ground, crates with random weapons, learn how to use healing and protective items, and, even knowing that they can drive the car they find on the road.
But their biggest surprise was a piece of blue paper with a pencil on their waist, which if they used this magic paper, they could use resources like wood, brick or metal to build!
Petter spent some time building the wooden house, while Ned used his time to build the castle out of bricks.
When they first learned that you can take resources and build them, they thought Fortnite looked a bit boring because it was not much different from Minecraft.
Until when they were in their house, gunshots rang out outside, leaving Ned and Petter terrified!
When they looked out, two people were running while shooting at their house, fleeing from the strange purple mist!
