Free up space by pressing the trackpad.
LEARN TO BUILD – SMART AND EFFICIENT

Which means you have to be able to build both smart and efficient. To learn more about this, you can read our previous article ” Fortnite building tips “.
4. BE CAREFUL WHEN USING THE CABLE CARS
In season 7, cable cars became a standing feature on the map. Nowadays you can find them on most mountains. Although the cable cars allow for an easy and fast way down (without getting damaged), they should only be used when you are absolutely sure that there are no enemies nearby. Once on the cable car, you will be very visible to any opponents while you completely lack any protection.

5. USE HEADPHONES
Using headphones is very common on PC. However, not as many people use headphones when playing on consoles like the PS4. However, we recommend that you do this considering that you can hear both footsteps and shots from your enemies better.
6. KNOW WHICH WEAPONS YOU SHOULD USE
In Fortnite there are a variety of weapons, which are also different good. Therefore, be sure to learn what weapons are available, in what situations they are best suited for use, and how much damage they can do.

7. BE SURE TO USE YOUR LOOT
Most likely, you will quickly find loot, both from chests and from dead opponents. You will probably find shields, bandages, Medkits and the like. Your first thought is probably to save them for later, but we recommend you use them directly instead. Partly because you free up space but also because it can save you in the event of an unexpected ambush.
