Fortnite, a name synonymous with the modern realm of video gaming, sparks its fair share of discussions and deliberations. One of the hot topics in question? The Tiger assault rifle. Is it a worthy buy? Or is it just a yawning waste of time waiting to happen? This piece discusses the contrasting views of Fortnite enthusiasts regarding the Tiger.
Summary
- Some players believe that there are significantly better alternatives to the Tiger in the Fortnite armoury
- It has some unique features which present both advantages and drawbacks
- The weapon might primarily appeal to Battle Royale players
Not a Fan Favourite, but Loved by Some
As commented by Exo_loves_you, ‘there are SO many better assault rifles than this’. This perspective holds roots in function rather than fashion. The Tiger might not be the most practical weapon choice for a firefight. It’s a sentiment echoed by MuschMouth, who highlights the fact that there are superior versions of the Tiger, such as Crankshot.
The Tiger’s Unique Selling Points
Although it might not be the darling of Fortnite’s weapon range, the Tiger has certain features that set it apart. As MuschMouth rightly points out, the Tiger comes with a zoom-in scope, adding a bit of precision to the gameplay. Its slow fire rate, however, may not sit well with Fortnite players more inclined towards a rapid-fire gaming approach.
The Battle Royale Aspect
An intriguing point noted by All_Skulls_On brings into light the Battle Royale bias for the Tiger. If you’re a Battle Royale player, the Tiger may feel almost homely. The weapon’s dynamic reminds them of the MK type gun from Battle Royale making it a potential favorite among BR Players.
So, what’s the verdict? It would appear that the Tiger is indeed a situational delight. Whether or not it pleases entirely leans heavily on your style of gameplay and personal preference. Like most things in life, the Tiger emanates substantial pros and cons. Ultimately, to fire or not to fire—that is the question.
