I found a great article written by Haley(last name not disclosed) on HubPages. The full article is Five Things Fortnite Needs To Improve. I recently added a webpage to my website that was also written by Haley about 10 reasons Fortnite is a better video game than PUBG which you should all read HERE. Below are by 3 favorite improvements Fortnite should make that Haley suggests. I particularly like here first problem about micro-transactions. It does not actually give any advantage to player when you consider ability to play. However, skins and other items that people can purchase can add an intimidation factor if some one has a rare skin on the battle field. There also may be a disadvantage to the "no skins" as players often more aggressively attack players that do not purchase items from the store.

1. Micro-Transactions
Micro-transactions make sense in a
free-to-play game, however, while Fortnite is free to download. The majority of
the challenges and loot and rewards are locked behind a paywall. A single
outfit costs about $12 - $20.
Granted the things that money unlocks don't affect the gameplay.
Fortnite is still not pay-to-win, but it does separate those who are willing to
pay to unlock basic gameplay every season.
4. Guns
Guns in Fortnite are a big problem, which is
weird for a game that is built around weapons (and building).
Weapons are either overpowered or highly
underpowered. The color-coding system is important, it quickly allows a player
to see if one shotgun is of a higher quality than another. Quality differences
between guns, makes sense, however, headshots at point blank range shouldn't do
minimal damage even if a weapon is of the lowest quality.
The same mechanics that make the game easier for a new player to
pick up, can become a problem as well. The aiming and shooting mechanics of Fortnite
are loose. The mechanics do not give the player the ability to control shots,
such as shooting mechanics in other shooters do.
5. Guns Part 2: Death by Shotgun
Another issue that Fortnite has with weapons
is how overpowered shotguns are, and they continue to add more shotguns with
the updates, instead of more unique weapons.
While specific weapons will be better suited
for specific environments or types of contact, Fortnite really has two options:
either a shotgun or a sniper rifle.
Assault rifles, pistols, handguns, crossbows, etc. are only
useful if you've run out of ammo for your other weapons.
