I Played 43 Fortnite Games, Here Are the 10 I Hate the Most
an avid Fortnite player, I’ve had the chance to explore a wide variety of game modes. While some have been incredibly fun and creative, others have been downright frustrating. After playing through 43 different Fortnite games, I’ve compiled a list of the ten that I hated the most. These modes just didn’t live up to the hype—or worse, they left me wondering why I wasted my time. Here are the ones that fell flat for me.
82354Air Royale was supposed to bring exciting aerial dogfights to Fortnite, but instead, it turned into a frustrating experience. The clunky controls made it difficult to maneuver, and the limited strategy meant that once your plane was shot down, you were left with little to do. The repetitive nature of circling and firing at distant enemies without much tactical depth made this mode one of my least favorites.
In The Getaway, teams are tasked with locating safes, collecting jewels, and escaping to victory. While the heist theme was interesting, the execution felt off. Matches often felt unbalanced, with some teams dominating while others were left scrambling. The chaotic nature of the mode, combined with the randomness of certain events, led to a frustrating experience where strategy was often overshadowed by luck.
Food Fight pits players in a battle between Tomatohead and Durr Burger, with each team defending their mascot. While it sounded like a fun, wacky idea, the mode quickly devolved into a chaotic mess. The combination of frantic building and constant combat made it feel overwhelming. The matches dragged on longer than they needed to, making this mode feel more like a chore than a game.
Sniper Shootout limits players to sniper rifles and scoped weapons, which sounds great for those who enjoy long-range combat. However, the mode’s slow pace and the frustration of missing a shot and getting instantly eliminated from across the map made it a slog. The lack of weapon variety and the frequent camping made this mode feel more like a waiting game than an action-packed experience.
Barebones mode strips away many of Fortnite’s unique features, including building and the HUD, leaving players with a more basic shooter experience. Unfortunately, this made the game feel bland and lacking in depth. Without the ability to build or the usual strategic elements, matches felt more like a generic shooter. The minimal HUD only added to the frustration, leaving me missing the complexity that makes Fortnite stand out.
High Explosives equips players with rocket launchers, grenades, and other explosive weapons. While this mode has the potential for chaotic fun, it often ends up being more frustrating than enjoyable. The abundance of explosives means that you’re constantly on the brink of being blown up, leading to a lot of cheap deaths. The lack of balance and the sheer randomness of the mode made it one that I quickly grew tired of.
Disco Domination is a capture-the-point mode with a dance-off twist. While the concept is unique, the gameplay doesn’t quite hit the mark. The constant back-and-forth over control points felt repetitive, and the dancing mechanic, while fun at first, quickly lost its novelty. Matches often dragged on, and the lack of a clear strategy made this mode feel more like a gimmick than a serious game mode.
Close Encounters restricts players to shotguns and jetpacks, leading to intense, close-range combat. However, this mode quickly becomes repetitive and frustrating. The limited weapon choice means there’s not much room for strategy, and the jetpacks, while fun, can lead to chaotic and unpredictable encounters. The constant in-your-face action with little room to breathe made this mode feel more stressful than enjoyable.
Rumble is a large team-based mode where the first team to reach a certain number of eliminations wins. While it’s designed to be a more relaxed, casual experience, it often ends up feeling like a chaotic mess. The respawn system means there’s little consequence to dying, leading to endless cycles of running, shooting, and dying without much thought. The lack of structure and strategy made this mode feel aimless and unsatisfying.
Invasion was introduced as a new mode where players defend against waves of alien invaders. While the concept seemed promising, the execution fell short. The repetitive nature of the waves, combined with the lack of significant rewards, made this mode feel like a grind. The novelty of fighting off aliens wore off quickly, and the mode lacked the depth to keep me engaged for long.
Fortnite is known for its diverse and ever-changing gameplay, but not every mode is a hit. These ten modes, for various reasons, just didn’t live up to my expectations. Whether it’s due to frustrating mechanics, lack of balance, or simply being less engaging, these are the Fortnite games I hated the most out of the 43 I played. Of course, every player has their own preferences, so while these didn’t work for me, they might be someone else’s favorites. But if you’re looking to have a good time in Fortnite, you might want to avoid these modes.
