Improvements to the Switch?
As a Nintendo Switch Fortnite player is well known that the game has some issues. Most notably is the textures not loading in at the start of the round and the crazy lag spike when you pick up your first weapon. I did hear recently that if you move the game from your memory card and put it on the system memory it improves performance. (Thanks Formaxis) The latest patch looks to bring some improvements to the Switch.
-Significant GPU optimization on Switch. Moved to the high-end forward renderer. This increases dynamic resolution by 10% in expensive scenes.
Landing Tilted seems to be the most troublesome so hopefully, it brings improvement there. 
The latest patch also brings a new gun to the game and it’s a powerhouse!
- Double Barrel Shotgun added.
- Available in Epic and Legendary variants.
- Can be found from floor loot, chests, Supply Drops, and Vending Machines.
- Delivers high burst damage at very close range but damage falls off heavily at distance.
- Fires 10 pellets like other Shotguns, has a larger spread, lower critical damage multiplier (1.25x), and a 2 second cooldown time when swapping weapons.
- Epic Variant
- Up to 143 base damage per shot at extreme close range.
- Legendary Variant
- Up to 150 base damage per shot at extreme close range.
