If you want to join in, here you\u2019ll find <\/span>seven tips to avoid dying right away on Fortnite. <\/b><\/p>\n

Choose <\/b>your landing spot well<\/b><\/h2>\n

This is a basic tip that any expert player will tell you:<\/span> choose your landing spot well. <\/b>It\u2019s key that you do this before launching yourself from the Battle Bus, since there could be areas that you can sweep through better than others. Also, and this is key, you shouldn\u2019t forget that there are 99 other players trying to kill you, so watch where they land so you\u2019re not right next to them. <\/span><\/p>\n

Grab a gun<\/b><\/h2>\n

The second \u201ctip\u201d is also basic: <\/span>grab a gun.<\/b> Many users go directly to collect supplies, but our advice is that you start going into buildings to find a gun, rifle, machine gun, etc. It doesn\u2019t matter what kind you get, the important thing is that you have one at the start so you can blow up your enemies.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Build<\/b><\/h2>\n

You made a good landing, scooped up a gun to defend yourself, and now it\u2019s time to construct buildings. Yes, to do this, you need to <\/span>collect supplies <\/b>first. Choose the pickaxe and start destroying everything you can. The more materials you have in your inventory, the better. You don’t want to start building a wall and running out of materials midway through. <\/span><\/p>\n

Learn to build well <\/b><\/h2>\n

Here’s where we get into the advanced stuff. It\u2019s one thing to know how to build a wall (the previous \u201ctip\u201d). It’s another thing to know when to do it. <\/strong> <\/span>The best players of Fortnite have shown that they can build elements with <\/span>frightening speed<\/b> and in extreme situations.<\/b> Thanks to these walls, ramps, etc. they are better protected (and covered) against enemies. If you know how to use these materials well, we can assure you\u2019ll be in the top 20 of almost all games.<\/span><\/p>\n

Watch your surroundings<\/b><\/h2>\n

You could camp out and wait for the enemy. Or you could run for your life. Somewhere in the middle is best, <\/span>so keep watching your surroundings<\/b>, but never stop what you\u2019re doing. For example, a good tip is to take advantage of the existing buildings, since they offer materials for building and additional protection. <\/span><\/p>\n

Silence<\/b><\/h2>\n

If it\u2019s important to watch your surroundings, remember that all players are doing this. Open fire only when you\u2019re in an <\/span>extreme situation or when you think the setting is in your favor.<\/b> It\u2019s usually a common error to see an enemy, shoot without thinking, and later say, \u201cHe was very far away, I should have stayed quiet.\u201d Likewise, weapons aren’t the only thing that make noise: <\/span>building elements does, too. <\/b>Oh and don\u2019t forget that a player can see you building from a distance.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget the storm<\/b><\/h2>\n

Our final tip is the most ridiculous, but perhaps the most important: <\/span>watch the storm<\/b>. If you\u2019re within the exclusion area, after a while you know you could die in a matter of seconds. Though it\u2019s hard to believe, it\u2019s unusual to have a game where players don\u2019t die under the cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n
