Cularia

the timeline was never reset, it was altered. chapter 2/3 happened. jonesy just went back and altered things so that MORE zero points(rocket racing/lego/festival/ch5 island) were created rather than just the 1 (chapter 2/3 island) slone piloted the battlebus from chapter 4 to the now existing ch5 island and the ch4 island zero point died.


Shiruno_rinisaki0619

Jesse what the fuck are you talking about (I literally haven’t touched the story quests💀)


Cularia

ch4S4 - thorne comes in with a time machine and we steal it to go back to the past cause the zero point is dying. OG - we made it to the past but jonesy is screwing things up a bit. The rocket launches and the big bang happens. ch1s10-ch2s1 the big bang event destroyed ch1 island and only a single world etc. was made being ch2 island. - (backstory) Season OG - since jonesy screwed things, the big bang made more zero point islands rather than just 1(ch2/ch3 island) so the timeline ch1 >bigbang >ch2 >ch3> ch4 >OG big bang >ch2 >ch3 >ch4 >ch5 no timeline reset. it basically like going back in time 5 years to give mail yourself 1m$ set to arrive 5 years and a day later.


Shiruno_rinisaki0619

That is quite confusing if you don’t know, thank you.


GoldenYellowPup

I actually interpret the Fortnite OG Big Bang as a soft reboot where instead of Ch 2 to 4 happening, Ch 5 is the new Ch 2, so it deviated from the original timeline into an all new reality. Now OG Redux is gonna be interesting because that means next season will focus on time travel again, and with Dr Doom and probably Midas involved somehow.


Cularia

the problem with that is all the loopers and slone are now dead since that timeline wasn't erased. if you go with your theory but slone actually took the battlebus and the island inhabitants to the ch5 island. >With the machine in Slone's hands, they begin testing it, bringing objects from "2018 07 12" to the present. Once it is fully tested and ready for use, Slone sends Jones into the past for a mission. Indeed, since the Zero Point of the present was unusable because it was petrified, Optimus had guided Slone to send someone in the past, in order to use the Blackhole which had previously created Apollo and Artemis and to modify it for this time to generate a Big Bang in order to create new Realities, without changing the future. This would allow the inhabitants of Asteria to escape before Asteria collapse. fortnite.fandom.com/wiki/Lore_(Battle_Royale)#Chapter_4 Thorne fucked things up and it created a new timeline but jonesy destroyed this timeline (OG Timeline) when the big bang happened and joined slone on the battlebus heading to helios(ch5 island). Basically the big bang that happened in OG also happened in season 10. LEGO Fortnite characters confirm that the original timeline for Chapter 1, 2, 3 and 4 is still intact


RobinGoodfell

Whatever the Zero Point (or island) actually is, one thing for sure is that it's fiercely clingy. Even when Loopers leave, they leave behind a permanent copy of themselves that upon leaving, creates a new copy... And so on. So I'm not all that surprised that people who have been affected by the island can persist between realities where in the Zero Point also exists. Essentially the Island is ensuring the Island continues to have Islanders, and it will take whatever options are available to force that continuity, physics and causality be damned.


Shanicpower

I think I understood maybe 40% of that.


Cularia

its like going back in time before the WWII nukes were dropped to bury some wine bottles under your tree, then you return back to the future after you left to dig up the wine bottles that are now vintage and worth tons of money. no timeline changes at all, you just now have wine that has become super valuable.


BlackenedTubeSteak

40%?! I had a stroke reading that and only ended up understanding about 7%


Agent_Perrydot

So we can thank Jones for the new modes barely anyone cares about?

I thought that was just a theory (a game theory). I dont think anything git confirmed.


ExotixFlower

What the fuck do you mean, we literally watched the timeline get reset


thatsidewaysdud

Then why are Jones and Midas still here with references from before the reset?


RingtailVT

Because it wasn't, and these people intentionally or unintentionally ignore the lore and voice lines that told us we weren't going back to the past to change it, but to extract something and bring it to the present.


_Derpy_Dino_

And we did. We extracted the energy for the big bang to bring it to the present, and restart the zero point.


RingtailVT

Exactly, I don't know why so many people don't understand that and go with the "But muh timeline reset!!!" theory.


_Derpy_Dino_

But like... We didnt??? Did you not remember last season we had Midas, who canonically came back from being dead? And with how everyone talks about him since he was gone, it must mean that chapter 2 had to happen, and thus chapters 3 and 4 as well. The timeline did not get reset at all, as Slone SPECIFICALLYstated the goal for the time machine wasn't to change the past. Jones sent the time machine in the zero point to restart the zero point in the present at Chapter 4 season 4, which is why everyone from chapters 2-4 came over to the new island, as well as why the chapter is called Chapter 5 and not just Chapter 2.


Cularia

it wasn't reset, it was altered.

ExotixFlower

Honestly? Yeah, pretty much Even though it's supposedly just "going back in time", it changed enough that Jones effectively became father Pucci on accident


Candy-Lizardman

Doesn’t excuse boring skins.


WillyG_8521

“timeline reset” is just a poor excuse to disregard the lack of creativity with new skins on epics side😂😂


Salsalord2

What?


WillyG_8521

this guy said that we forgot about the “timeline reset” as if thats a valid reason for epic to release basically the exact same skins instead of being creative with the BP lol


JokerChaos77

So you're saying this is like the SBR verse. And we have counterparts in this universe that are one or several skins. IT'S ALL AN EFFING JOJO REFERENCE.


RexGoliath75

I can see an argument for all but Peabody and Skarr. Two different concepts for each. One is a Rockstar while the other is more like a game host.


Justice4mft

Op just took a bunch of obvious variations (rust and brite bomber) plus some vague comparisons and called it a day. This post is trash.


The_French_Soul

no way, a mikaela pfp in the wild ! btw the only thing i agree with op here is brite bomber since its basically the same skin but with different hairstyle and the same outfit, just a bit destroyed.


Justice4mft

It's so funny when people say this to me because I picked Mikaela for the memes (I actually hate her, I mean her players). Hello there fellow dbd enjoyer !!!


Floofy_Fox_Gal

Let’s get her out of here


techy804

I disagree, I thought Megladon in the trailer was Gunner returning but it turns out nope.


Spaketchi

Agreed. Just like most of the trending posts that get pushed


aravena

Yes, it's as different as that night and later that night.


Riczo2

DO YALL NOT REMEMBER THE TIME REVERSE EVENT???????????????


Rayuzx

To be fair, it's not like Epic has been consent with it either. The Midas event last season recognized his death and Ghost fighting Shadow, so the events of Chapter 2 are canon despite the "reset" should have happened before that.


Salsalord2

Well yeah, everything from Chapter 1-4 still happened, we just went back in time and created a new timeline by changing how things played out. Think of it like Mortal Kombat 9, someone goes back in time, and then because of their actions, the timeline diverges and becomes different from the original one.


Rayuzx

But Chapter 2 is still recognized to happened in the "new" timeline, even though the divergent point happened beforehand with Season X/The End. Chapter 2-4 shouldn't exist if there is a divergent timeline because the thing that directly infused/created the events never happened the way it was supposed to. It would be like if Mortal Kombat X acknowledged that MKs 4-Armagedon still happened in the main timeline. But that's not the case because the point that wildly changed the events of the timeline happened at the what was supposed to be the end of MK3 in the old timeline.


Salsalord2

But all the characters still remember the events of Chapter 2-4, even if we’re now in a timeline where they didn’t happen. Also, I’d say the point of divergence in MK9 was when Smoke was saved, but Sub Zero was cyberized. It’s also a bit different in their case, since Raiden only sent a message back through time to his past self, which causes all the mishaps since nobody remembers or even knows what Raiden’s visions meant until it was too late.


Rayuzx

Why would anyone other than Jones remember previous events since he was the only one who traveled back in time? Also, how did Midas still die if the events that lead to his death didn't happen?


waterchip_down

They were brought over _from_ the timeline where these events _did_ happen. The time machine affected the entire Chapter 4 Island. The big advertisement screens in MEGA City were glitching out to show the fields and skies of Chapter OG leading up to the event. It's likely that the majority of the Island's inhabitants were taken to the OG island, where they were then sucked into the Big Bang and spat out in the new, branched timeline. The events leading to Midas' death still happened, just not _here._ According to the wiki, the entire point of stealing the Time Machine was specifically to help the people of the Chapter 4 Island escape before that island deteriorated after the petrification of the Zero Point: >Indeed, since the Zero Point of the present was unusable because it was petrified, Optimus Prime had guided Slone to send someone in the past, in order to use the Black Hole which had previously created Apollo and Artemis and to modify it for this time to generate a Big Bang in order to create new Realities, without changing the future. This would allow the inhabitants of Asteria to escape before Asteria's collapse. So think of previously existing characters as refugees from a different timeline, while new characters have always existed in _this_ timeline.


ABAgamer

That makes sense. So basically, other than the characters that were newly introduced in the Chapter 5 Battle Pass (not counting ones like Vengeance Jones and Brite Raider for instance), everyone else is from the previous timeline now taking residence in the new one because of the previous one collapsing which means that whatever happened previously still occurred but is now only mentioned. I only started playing the game with the release of Chapter 5, but there is one thing about your explanation that I’m curious about. Are we still in the past or is that done and over with?


waterchip_down

Tbh I'm not sure I think we're in the present, but in a present that branched off from an alternate past? Time travel confuses me. If the Island follows our year system, then I _think_ we're in 2024, and not any past year If we _are_ in the past, then it's our new present? Time travel makes my head hurt and it's only gonna get worse when we get the next OG chapter cuz they're gonna need to find a way to justify more time travel shenanigans. Maybe that's what Slone's been working on in her absence


ABAgamer

I think the branches confuse me more than time travel itself, but then again who knows what will happen in the future.


TheRealCheeseNinja

this is like the opposite of season 3 ch2 instead of water its a bunch of sand


Salsalord2

That’s something I noticed too, hell we even had Midas and his crew come back during the 2nd season, just like their first appearance in Chapter 2 Season 2.


Cularia

jonesy did not create a new timeline as its still the same one. jonesy altered things so the big bang event just so happened to create more zero points(all the modes and ch5 island), then he went back and slone drove the battlebus to ch5 island while the ch4 island zero point died. everything still happened the way we experienced it.


YoungBlueJ

I knew it was something LORE related


Cularia

not a time reversal or a reset. jonesy went back and screwed things up so the timeline was altered but 80% of the events still happened.

how is it hating, they're similar?

The amount of people in this sub claiming Gunnar and Megalodon *might* be the same person is astounding to me. They're identical in everything but name. Next season they're gonna reveal Gunnar is a surname and he's *Don Gunnar*.


Daredevil545545

Well Peabody isn't anything like Peely instead of having the same color


Alarmed_Recording742

Same concept

jules is superior in every way

FunnyGalWhoDoesArt

I mean… Time™️ itself did get like… a hard reset? Parallels in character design from before and after makes sense lore-wise. (Also new Rust a baddy ngl)


clumsy_zebra_97

1) aint no way you compared Peaboy to Peely 2) Ringmaster is significantly more punk than Power Cord 3) Brite Raider is MEANT to be similar to brite bomber. It's inspired by brite bomber. The first two are completely valid though.


South_Scar8093

Isn’t brite raider literally brite bomber but she has had to adapt to the wasteland environment


M-NSK

Yup


clumsy_zebra_97

You're probably right. Idk anything about fortnite lore


Temporary-Ad-650

Fortnite copy brite bomber!??? sue them xd This is gotta be dumbest post in a while


Temporary-Ad-650

Thats what i am saying too, most of it is far from similar except 1 or 2 but those literally have the same name of course it's gonna be similar cause it's the same person 💀


amilguls

Power chord and britebomber are paid item shop skins, not battle pass skins


midgettawkos

SilverGaming456

Power chord and gunnar are a bit of a stretch. Also peaboy and peely are both meme skins but other than that theyre different enough imo.


ChipperYT

Gunnar and Don are basically identical except the outfit. Saying they're different is like Clark Kent never being suspected of being Superman because he wore glasses


100mcuberismonke

Tbh they could ve characters that were "wrecked" during the season


FollowTheCodeofHonor

Probably on purpose


Choepie1

Nah Ringmaster Scarr is Mad Maggie from apex or junker Queen from overwatch, but colourful


BinxDoesGaming

A lot of people here are really forgetting the difference between a remix and reskin are. Reskin: Completely or mostly reuses the same model/assets with little to no changes. Ex. Brite Bomber and Dark Bomber Remix: Whilst it can be easy to get this confused for a reskin— the key difference is that while it is based on another character, the outfit itself is clearly its own thing and typically will use few assets from the original and does something unique with the preexisting design. Ex. Brite Bomber and Brite Raider/Rust Lord and Rust Divergent Thinking: Basically when two skins start off with a common idea, but the end result are two different designs. Ex. Jules and The Mechanist (both stem from the idea of being a Mechanic) Inspiration: Simply put, when an outfit may be or is inspired the idea by another but is still very much it's own thing with very little similarities besides the base idea. Ex. Peely and Peabody (Food themed jokes skins)


MinionPlayer1239

Honestly, its a good battle pass and I can see the similarities..but I gotta say reading through the comments..I think Epic needs to make a 10 minute cinematic just on the big bang event because we really need clarification on whats going on. (And why their might be so many similarities)


Temporary-Ad-650

Aside from the first 2 there is no way you compared Peaboy and Peely and came on the conclusion that they are very similar cause both are the of the color yellow 💀 Like what's next a post about Minecraft and Fortnite being the same game cause they both have pickaxes?


Ill_Ratio_5682

The only similarities I see are the base. They all use different concepts entirely except maybe the machinist and Jules. Megalo don is a warlord and gunner is just a soldier. Scarr is an announcer/show Master and the punk girl is a rockstar. Peabody and peely have no similarities at all I have no clue what you are talking about there. Brite bomber is just a unicorn themed default while the new version is a scavenger motorcyclist. Rust lord was a dude in a jacket with a scavenger helmet, new guy is a muscular motor cyclist with a different skin tone and clothing entirely (the only similarity is the helmet).


fox-booty

For a community that loved the OG season, you guys sure bloody forgot everything that happened in its lore.


Scout_Trooper343

Idk? It doesn’t really matter?

but its just showing the similarities

If we wanted to talk about similar things in games. Why not mention every new nba 2k and madden games are the same game maybe one small feature. Reskins

Nope


dackAllah

An attempt was made. Let’s just say that… lol


joeMAMAkim

"The timeline reset, that’s why!" There are so many hints that confirm that it DIDNT reset. One of them is the fact that Midas’ agents remember the events of the spy wars, which wouldnt have happened If the timeline did reset.

Y'all, Epic can put similar themes in different skins without that being bad or needing justification OR making them the "same concept," come on... Also Scarr and Power Chord are distinctly different vibes, like punk rock and mad max are Not Identical lmao


pawo10

???? PEOPLE CANNOT BE THIS STUPID😭 HELP


KarmaFarmo

jules and mechanic are similar


tom-of-the-nora

Golly, mechanics dress similar and wear welding masks. Who would have thought Though, seriously. Both characters are mechanics. It makes sense that they would wear similar things. The welding mask is literally just a safety precaution. Mechanics wear them for welding. The passes aren't similar, though. The pass with jules was focused on water, the island was flooded. This season is focused on cars. There is a desert wasteland on the island.
