Cranking 90s in Fortnite is one of those things that slowly took over the battlefield for a lot of gamers. Cranking 90s in style with the speed and accuracy of a master… of something. Watching gamers crank 90s can be both entertaining and annoying depending on your take and age of gaming.
For many younger gamers, this is just what the game has evolved to. For many older gamers, it’s one of those “did you really have to”? things in gaming. Does cranking 90s add to the game or does it take away the essence of battle royale type gaming and make it into a joke. Only the memes will tell.
10 Ain’t It The Truth
As many older gamers have stated in forums across social media, the kids are doing it wrong. When gaming became big and online was starting out, the kids ran the show. The gaming masses swarmed and at that time they were doing it all wrong. Fast forward a couple of decades or so and we find that generation now spouting the same remarks. Is it a fear of change? Is it the fear of being left behind or being wrong with it all? Is it all of the above? Gaming through the generations has definitely changed and advanced forward.
9 The First Time You See It
Do you remember the first time you saw someone cranking 90s? It was something amazing and strange and frightening all in the same. The fact that the coordination is that good to crank 90s like some of the best do is mind-boggling.
Strange at first, then funny to watch as a sniping tower is built in seconds or an escape tower is higher than the clouds. Then when it’s done after a kill, why not.
8 The Strangeness Of It All
First hearing about cranking 90s is that strange moment. That moment marks the “how did it end up becoming this?” time. When you find out one of your fellow battle royale Fortnite comrades is cranking 90s as fast as the bullets fly, it becomes painfully obvious, change is happening. Where do you start? A deadpan stare as they explaining the details of the eccentric and efficient button work and the reasons for doing so is expected.
7 Compare As We Dare
The different genres, the different eras, and the different player demographics always had a quickfire solution for a problem that never existed. Cranking 90s for the sake of cranking 90s, boarding doors for the inevitable rebuild after an explosion, and the 360 no scope loophole were all something that changed the game experience. Red Dead Redemption is (so far) just straight-up country.
6 It’s Time (For Some)
As some of the older gamers and fans of the genre start to experience the new fad of cranking 90s, it is inevitable to lose some of the regular audience. For some, the new and crazy fads that happen in gaming is a pushing point. Remember to deal with games as an ever-changing medium of art. Though sometimes it is time to move on to an untainted battlefield. A pure gaming experience that can handle purist mentality to gaming. There is nothing wrong with that, but as we have seen, things will change. Just keep on keeping on.
5 Patience Young One
There is this. The few times when the older gamers can outplay or outwit the younger gamers. We’ve all seen the capitalization of gaming quirks by an old school gamer. Getting the upper hand over a youthful hopeful with such a funny talent is almost the pinnacle of gaming for those who have been gaming for many years. It’s that shared moment between gamers that makes these moments all worthwhile.
4 Finally Got It
Few moments in gaming can share the likes of the great minds of the world. 360 no scope and cranking 90s are 2 of the more recent tricks to master. Once you do master something like this there is no better moment, relatively speaking. With this talent and knowledge, you are unstoppable.
3 We’ve All Been There, Haven’t We?
We have all been there at one time or another. 2v2, 4v4, teams, whatever the case may be, sometimes it’s just not our time to shine. Certainly, gamers all have a certain talent, some more dated than others for sure. As the new quirky gaming fads hit the mainstream and you’re the one that can’t quite grasp the concept, this meme really shows the feeling. Are you new? Possibly not, but that strange talent is just out of your reach. Ce La Vie.
2 It Seriously Can’t Be
Has it gone that far? Will the bots start cranking 90s? We can certainly hope not. Once “the man” starts cranking 90s, is that the beginning of the end for Fornite and the battle royale world it has created? Probably not. It is too big and too popular to go anywhere.
1 Some Will Go To Any Length
Well, this does leave much to the imagination. It would be quite the scene to see someone attempt such a feat in real life. This is one of those memes that brings a smile. With the reality of the global situation and the toilet paper debacle, this relatable meme is a light approach to the funny moments of both the game and life.
