Fortnite‘s Developers’ Boobalicious Lie

Despite being a game where dozens of people fight until there’s only one left dancing atop a pile corpses, Fortnite is somehow regarded as a kid-friendly game. But, a 2018 update made a few fans question that when it introduced Calamity, a Cowgirl character whose model featured some surprisingly realistic boob physics.

Some fans were quick to point out the strangeness of one female character being portrayed with such “realism” on the breast department, while others probably wanted the devs to make sure other female models got upgraded  — for equality, we’re sure. It didn’t pan out, and the jiggly boob physics were quickly patched out. Epic games tried to shrug off the whole debacle as an embarrassing and “unintended” mistake, and while it’s nice of a big company to not blame it on a single employee who “went rogue out of nowhere” for once, “unintended” seems like a stretch.

Making something that looks great in a game is not an easy task. So If a pair of boobs jiggle realistically in a game, that’s because either a person, or a bunch of ’em worked hard (or at least semi-hard) to code them to move like that. To lay the non-mystery to rest, hackers data-mined the hell out of the pre-patched version of the game and found lines of code with names such as “Breast Physics”, which developers probably typed in by accident. With their penises.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Fans Solve Its Greatest Mysteries

When not messing with its own developers with fun practical jokes like devastating overtime, Rockstar Game is famous for messing with players. In Red Dead Redemption 2 they teased everyone with the existence of a legendary catfish, sending us on an impossible quest to catch it until we were screaming, “– from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee,” at our TV. Is this another version of GTA: San Andreas‘ Bigfoot situation, where lots of players claimed for years to have seen the beast, but only had piss poor recordings to show as proof?
