Your frame rate determines how fast your gun fires in Fortnite and PUBG

Yes, we all know that it’s better to play games at higher frame rates, since they give us more responsive controls and better reaction windows. But players have discovered that the benefits to playing Fortnite and PUBG at higher fps counts go much further than that - better performance means you can get bullets out faster than your opponents. Players have been doing tests on the issue for months, going back to a Fortnite: Save the World fire rate test on Reddit. YouTuber WackyJacky101 put out a video on PUBG fire rates this week, more Reddit posts broke things down in greater detail, DrLupo tested things in Fortnite Battle Royale, and Digital Foundry did similar testing at a variety of frame rates. In short, the tests have been thorough. Since the issue is common between PUBG and Fortnite, it seems to be a quirk of the Unreal Engine, which both games run on. Generally, higher frame rates mean higher fire rates. That’s an especially big problem for Fortnite’s full cross-play setup, since 30fps targets on Switch and mobile are being pitted against 60fps on other consoles and potentially much higher numbers on PC.
