The game is coming soon to Android, says Epic Games, the creator of "Fortnite." But it's unclear when, and which devices will be supported.
3. Once the game starts, wait until the final seconds to jump out of the flying bus.

Every "Fortnite Battle Royale" game starts with the 100 online players jumping out of the flying bus and onto the island below. But if you notice, most people tend to jump out as early as possible — probably because so many players just want to get in there and start killing each other.
Don't be one of those people.
If you're patient, and you wait until the final seconds to jump from the bus, you'll usually land with fewer enemy players nearby. That gives you more time to find weapons and protection. And if you're completely alone, you can use this valuable time to practice shooting and building. Since "Fortnite" doesn't have its own practice mode, aside from the seconds-long loading area before the start of every game, this can be the best way to practice switching between weapons, trying out new guns, and building ramps and fortresses.
Building and shooting are essential to playing and winning in "Fortnite" so fly to the end of the map, quietly gather materials and gear, and use that isolation to your advantage and practice.
