Fortnite player desperately tried to save Flush Factory before it was cut from game

Just before the snow and the ice crashed into the world of Fortnite Battle Royale for Season 7, one player tried to save their favorite destination from the iceberg. 

Flush Factory, which has been a location on the game’s map since the very first season, has now been replaced by Happy Hamlet. 

The factory would regularly be seen completely destroyed by gamers for materials, but is now no longer available on the map. The other destinations cut from this new season are Greasy Grove and Viking Village, making way for the incoming Frosty Flights and Polar Peak.

But, despite those incoming changes, u/Smithstirini had other ideas. 

With news breaking that one of their favorite locations was soon going to be destroyed and smashed into by a huge iceberg, Smithstirini built a huge dome around Flush Factory in an attempt to protect it. 

He posted his project to Reddit on December 6, which will have been deemed unsuccessful when the player downloaded the new Fortnite v7.00 patch.
