CouRage Gives His Thoughts on Fortnite Season 5: Might be My Favorite Season

Former Call of Duty World League commentator turned OpTic Gaming content creator Jack "CouRage" Dunlop has risen to become one of the most popular streamers on Twitch and the Fortnite community. Utilizing his entertaining personality and skill at Fortnite, CouRage has built a very large and passionate following that tune in every day to his streams. 

With Fortnite currently being the main game of focus for CouRage, the OpTic Gaming member can often be found on his social media accounts discussing the game with other members of the community and giving his thoughts on the current state of the title. This was the case on Monday, July 16th when CouRage posted a tweet detailing his current thoughts on Season 5 of Fortnite. 

Thoughts on Season 5:
Love the weapon variety we are now seeing. Pump shotgun feels underwhelming at the moment. C4/Splodes are definitely too strong. Rifts are awesome. Make acquiring materials 10-20% quicker so it’s less of a tree farming simulator.

Might be my favorite season

Season 5 has brought many changes to Fortnite and has introduced a very different dynamic to how players approach the game compared to past seasons. From the dominance of shotguns being nowhere close to where it was in previous seasons of Fortnite to the understanding of how powerful explosives are now in destroying enemy structures. 

These and other major points were addressed by CouRage of OpTic Gaming. The popular community member explained how he loves the new weapon variety that Season 5 has brought to the battle royale game, the pump shotgun is not as strong as it once was, C4 and other explosives being too powerful, his love of the new teleportation rifts and how the time spent acquiring materials needs to be increased. 

The streamer then ended his thoughts by stating that Season 5 of Fortnite could possibly be his favorite season of all time. 

While there have been many individuals who have stated that Season 5 of Fortnite is not very well executed, there are plenty of people, such as CouRage of OpTic Gaming, who feel that Epic Games have once again delivered another top notch product with their battle royale game's latest major update.
