Funny emotes have helped shape Fortnite's celebrity from the beginning. Everyone remembers the original dances — which were taken up by real life professional athletes. With Season 2 deployment and update 12.00, we learned that Epic Games was looking at a new type of emotes: Shout.
Several world-renowned dataminers have gotten their hands on known or specific shout files from the video game world:
- Get To The Choppa (Helicopter soon)
- 1v1
- Bow 2 Bugha
- Dang
- Leggo
- 2 Good
- OMG & Gosh
- It's Over
- Jankens
- I have the highground
- Leeroy
- Do This
Hypex compiled all these famous shout emotes in a video. Our in-game avatars will replicate them if they see the light of day.
We can also notice the presence of a Leeroy Jenkins file. This World of Warcraft character/player made a guttural scream as he threw himself into a dungeon battle. His "heroic" but futile act went viral within weeks.
And we can just imagine screaming that in the face of the enemy squad while darting with our last ammunition, can't you?
In its new update 12.0 — starting point of Chapter 2 Season 2 — Fortnite has implemented an interesting new mechanic: you can now throw your healing items to your teammates.
