Epic Games has released an update for Fortnite (29.30) that includes a new feature allowing players to filter out certain emotes considered “aggressive”. With the v29.30 update, players can choose not to see emotes such as “Laugh It Up,” “Take the L,” “Whipcrack,” and “Make it Plantain.” These emotes will be displayed as still images without any dancing or music. Players have the option to configure the setting to only show these emotes when performed by friends or hide them completely.
While Fortnite has a wide variety of emotes, the group of four mentioned has sparked controversy for their perceived toxicity and confrontational nature. Emotes like “Laugh it Up” and “Take the L” are often used after eliminating an opponent or winning a match, leading many players to express concerns about their use.
In addition to the emote filter feature, the update also includes a new chapter for the Fortnite Festival featuring music star Billie Eilish. Players can obtain an exclusive Eilish skin in the game’s item shop, along with a special style that can be unlocked through the Festival Pass. The game will also feature various pieces of music from Eilish’s discography.
Overall, the update aims to enhance the player experience by allowing them to customize their gameplay and enjoy new content related to popular music artists like Billie Eilish.
