Fortnite has update number 9.40 available for players worldwide, and it brings a series of exciting news for everyone. One of the first notable changes that Fortnite has in this version is the reintroduction of more powerful versions of shotguns for all players.
Fortnite has also reintroduced a sniper rifle, which helps players to kill their competitors faster from very long distances. Both weapons are designed to do more damage against Fortnite players, and both can be found much easier than before, so the changes are very good.
Here is the full list of notable changes that Fortnite has implemented in version 9.40 available right now:
- "Picking up an item that fills a stack and creates an overflow will no longer result in the currently equipped item being dropped.
- Instead of causing the currently-equipped weapon to be dropped, the overflow will be dropped.
- Players will now automatically pick up a consumable if it is already in their inventory and not maxed out.
- If the auto pickup fills a stack, the overflow will be dropped.
- Players can now pick up items more easily when standing on top of them.
- Bushes no longer block players from being healed by a Chug Splash.
- The Chug Splash now properly auto-sorts to the rightmost inventory slot when picked up, like other consumables.
- If a player using a Shadow Bomb enters a vehicle, the Shadow Bomb effect will no longer remain active after the effect should have ended.
- Fixed an issue in which players would experience abnormally slow gliding after using a Rift-to-Go.
- Consumables associated with a bar (Shield Potion, Med Kit, etc.) are now consistently usable by players riding a Zipline.”
