Also, why did they wait till now, when the games (from what I've seen) are vastly different? Fortnite has its own personality now more than ever They're not suing for that reason, but rather coping their UI. BR as a concept goes back to the 1970s at least, well before the book Battle Royale that is frequently cited as the originator of the idea. I was being sarcastic with the Battle Royale comment. But what about their UIs has ever been similar at any point? When Fortnite was first released, the radar, map, compass, health meter (both yours and your teammates), stat tracking were all the same, both in looks, placement and function. Just the crafting parts of the UI distinguished Fortnite's UI from PUBG's. They're different now, thanks to updates for both games. So I doubt the lawsuit will be a success. <cite>Ammonitida posted [p:902176211] in Wow... PUB...
