Actress Maisie Williams has had an idea about how Fortnite’s tiered loot could be swapped for a more measured strategy in the battle royale (via Comic Book).
what if you could upgrade 5 terrible guns for a purple or golden gun? a little treat for all the passive players who avoid confrontation by any means necessary â™€ï¸ @FortniteGame pic.twitter.com/YL1Ej9JBIm

Williams, who also has credits in Mary Shelley, Gen:Lock, and iBoy, seems to be a much more passive player of Fortnite. It’s a respectable approach, because it lets you react to the changing conditions from a refuge. Others like to go in guns-blazing, but Williams has a suggestion for how the game might be better for those who are much more chilled out than these desperadoes.
“what if you could upgrade 5 terrible guns for a purple or golden gun? a little treat for all the passive players who avoid confrontation by any means necessary,” said the actress in a post to Twitter, plus a trio of pretty emojis. It’s not a bad punt, and players have rallied round her proposal. It would let these more passive players survive for longer in scraps with opponents, and might even encourage them out of their hidey-holes for exciting moments towards the end of the match.
it’s a very new habit

Upgrade stations are scattered throughout the world, but those who have a more active approach are more likely to grab the golden guns. It just might work, so watch this space for more.
Fortnite is out now for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, iOS, and Android.
