Its gas trail could be set on fire.I think you can make a gas trail and then light it. Be great for making traps.— Readyplayer85 (@ReadyPlayer85) February 16, 2021Whatever this flopper is, it's by far one of the strangest additions that Fortnite has made. Its name suggests that it could also be used as a stink grenade or a smoke bomb.The Fortnite 15.40 update was quite underwhelming, but the information about the gas flopper was one of the highlights. There isn't more information available on the gas flopper currently. More will be available once it's finally released. One thing is for certain, players will flock water bodies to try and catch this flopper just for laughs and giggles.The 15.40 update also saw the return of the Flintlock Pistol in Fortnite. Epic Games teased this weapon in a tweet where they announced the downtime for the 15.40 update. Players were hoping that the pump action shotgun would be unvaulted, but for now they'll have to settle for the Flintlock Pistol.
