Fortnite challenge guide: Visit Farmer Steel’s favorite places

With the start of Fortnite season 7, week 4, a new batch of challenges is ready for you to complete, giving you plenty of ways to earn XP. Much like last week’s, the new challenges are tricky since most of them require you to visit unmarked locations on the map to find collectibles or visit specific spots. One challenge that might cause you some trouble sends you on a quest to visit Farmer Steel’s favorite places. Of course, the game doesn’t specify where his favorite places are.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to complete this challenge, along with everything else you’ll need to make it as easy as possible. Here’s how to visit Farmer Steel’s favorite places in Fortnite.

There are three locations you need to visit to complete this challenge. You might not know where to go, but luckily, we’ve got the locations of each. The map above (courtesy of Fortnite.gg) outlines all three locations. You do have to go to all three to complete the challenge, but they do not need to be visited in one match, thankfully. If you play Team Rumble and grab a vehicle, however, you can hit all three before the storm comes.

Since you don’t have to actually interact with anything to earn credit toward this challenge, you can get away with simply driving by in a vehicle. If you’re quick, you can drive close to the landmark, get credit for it, and then drive away before getting shot by any nearby players. If you do get taken out before you visit all three, you can pick up where you left off in another match, so don’t worry if you’re eliminated early.

Below are the specific locations of each spot you need to visit.

You can hit these in any order, but we had luck going to the one northwest of Retail Row. It’s found by the small body of water, next to the yellow house. The reason this spot is good to visit first is that you can head to the bridge to the north to grab a vehicle that will help you reach the others in time.

North of the previous location is the next spot, the pizza restaurant with the tomato on top. If you grabbed a vehicle from the bridge mentioned above, you should have no trouble getting here quickly.

The final one is found on the far west side of the map, to the northeast of Holly Hedges. It’s the small house located by a lake. Simply walk up and you’ll get credit for completing the challenge.

Fortnite faces community backlash over the addition of bots in OG mode

The recent launch of Fortnite OG shot the battle royale title back up the top of the charts, not that it ever really loosened the chokehold it has on the gaming community — and then the launch of the game's first-person mode further stoked the flames. One recent change is not as welcome, however. Fortnite recently shared a post on X detailing the addition of Duos mode, as well as "matchmaking improvements in all Fortnite OG playlists." That doesn't sound like a red flag ... until you read the comment section of the post.

Fortnite OG playlists just received bots, and players are taking that change about as well as they took the addition of No Build mode. In other words, it created a heck of a lot of controversy. The new bots aren't overly aggressive, and therein lies the issue: They present no challenge. Player complaints are that the bots move slowly, make decisions that get them killed, and much more, according to PCGamesN.

Fortnite is finally getting a first-person mode next week

Fortnite Ballistic, the long-awaited first-person mode for Epic Games' hit battle royale shooter Fortnite, will finally come to the game on December 11.

Epic Games first teased a first-person Fortnite mode in March, but now we have a clearer idea of how it will play. Ballistic is a round-based 5v5 mode with no respawns, similar to competitive shooters like Valorant or Spectre Divide. A team of attackers fights to plant and detonate a Rift Point Device in certain spots on the map, while defenders fight to eliminate the other team before they can do the same. While attackers and defenders will swap their roles after six rounds, Ballistic matches are a best-of-seven affair across both ranked and unranked play.

Fortnite OG isn't exactly a new mode -- it's come and gone several times before. What makes today's rollout special is that Fortnite OG is here to stay, and it's news that has delighted a lot of fans. Players have flocked back to Fortnite to play the nostalgia-riddled modes they remember.

In fact, within a mere 20 minutes of release, Fortnite OG had more than 1 million concurrent players in regular Fortnite and another 270,000 in Zero Build, Polygon reports. For context, that's about 1,822 times the maximum number of players Concord saw. Fortnite has always been a force of nature, but it has recently seen a surge of gamers like never before. As of right now, as we write this story, the game has 3,383,844 players, with its all-time high peak -- yes, of any of the previous years -- coming just five days ago with a whopping 14 million concurrent players.
