    I know this is an update post - but where else to ask other than the place where most players will be at?
    I've heard a lot about Fortnite but never tried it. Should I? To what games is it similar to?

    I have never played this game or PUBG.
     
    Epic said Fortnite had 3.4 million users on Sunday before the system crashed.
