Just because the games mechanics don't fit the traditional BR mold, it means its a trashy gimmicky game?
I have thousands of hours on Counter Strike and consider myself half decent at the game, and I don't find Fortnites shooting gimmicky at all. (Neither do half the pro players addicted to this game in the CS scene). 1st bullet accuracy patch was a great update for Fortnite, and tackled the games RNG gunplay issues with bloom. Sure the bloom is still there, but the patch makes all of your rifle shots laser accurate, meaning any time you miss with a rested M16/SCAR/Deagle/etc. shot - you are the only one to blame. Plus, name me any BR games with good server hit registration aswell as shooting mechanics (HINT they don't exist)
The level of gameplay in Fortnite is so much deeper than you make it out to be, and ridiculously deeper than your traditional BR's like H1 & PUBG, who's top tier players have resorted to the most pitiful and boring of tactics imaginable. Fortnite allows offensive and defensive play styles to thrive. You can be the dude who dropped corner map farming materials to make a Fort Knox in the top 10, preferably with high ground securing an advantageous defensive position, or you can be that dude that likes aggro drops, with high kill games & securing materials / better loot by killing their way to victory. Defending a siege can be just as difficult as taking high ground off a well positioned player , and, both styles have their pros in cons, but one constant remains is building. If you can't accept that simple fact - then the game isn't for you, and I don't get why you would exhaust any time
