PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS - Thread

I think I've encountered 1 cheater in over 100 hours of play, so surprised to see a lot of comments about it here. Just remember that deathcam/replay makes everything look dodgy.

Wow

Significant employee from Butthole has been politely removed from his office....for working with a "well known" cheat house.

(its not based on the death cam, the map is too big for people to suddenly know which house and bathtub you are cowering in fear in)

This is the response on the official forums:

Hello players,
First of all, we regret the confusion and frustration caused by rumors about our employee colluding with external parties selling illegal programs.
PUBG Corp takes a firm stand on illegal programs and improper behavior of internal employees.
The employee in question is in charge of China-related tasks, but contrary to what was rumored, he is not the head of the China region and is not in charge of illegal programs or anti-cheat related tasks. Therefore, this employee does not have access to game information such as the game's source code. It is also not true that this employee has already been fired.
However, as mentioned above, PUBG recognizes the seriousness of the current situation, and will investigate the matter. We will take the appropriate action(s) if any of these rumors are found to be true.
We will continue our missions to provide the best Battle Royale gaming experience and service to players around the world, and we thank you for making us part of your world.

So what theyve said is none of it is true but it might be true?

What was the actual accusation in the first place?

CliffyG · 5 Mar 2018 at 18:40

Dunno, first I knew about it was that announcement on the forums.

Thekwango · 5 Mar 2018 at 19:07

ahhh me and my tin foil hat...... well done bluehole weeding out that one pesky employee selling secrets to the hackhouses. poor scapegoat employee.......

Is there a sweeter feeling than a win after a drought for a few weeks

Excuse the potato photo, steam decided to corrupt my screenshot for some reason

Aye a CD always feels good, the adrenaline you get when it's down to the last few is quite funny really! For some reason I enjoy high kill games more than CD's though, I'm definitely doing PUBG wrong .

EDIT: I’ve been crate hunting for the last few matches. It’s good fun and still high octane paced, especially the 2nd/3rd ones.

Yeah 100%, I think that a 1 kill CD doesn't really count as a win

This was a fun game, played well and didn't get the thing where you forget how to use your arms when people appear!

Went off pubg but now well into it again. Couple of clips from last week including some high level sneaking

Haha, bridge chap won't be pleased watching the deathcam.

OT but I recognise your name from like 10 years ago playing CSS at the top of ED ladder

Can't work out whether I experienced my first death by cheater or not.
He keeps looking in the direction of the last 3 players, heads at me to kill me, then turns and aims directly at the rock one of the other players was behind. In the full game playback he does this loads of times, but he does also look where players aren't. Whether it's just to cover his cheating, or he genuinely isn't cheating I can't work out. He just seems to know where the other players are but when it comes to aiming it doesn't lock onto them.

The kill cam completely sucks. Lock the demo and make a recording from the replay rather than the kill cam. You can also toggle on the yellow x-ray vision within the demo to see if the player is scanning through walls with his x-hair.

I've made a video of the game recording but it's 3.2Gb. It's identical in where he aims, almost always towards the player names, and there are more instances of him appearing to see where the other players are or perhaps just looking in their direction by chance. It doesn't matter either way I guess, I was just puzzled.

New announcement:

PC players,

Our test servers are going up this week! We are currently polishing and debugging the test build.

We are going to be introducing an in-game friend system, voice chat in main menu and vehicle and limb penetration system. We are going to need your feedback on all the new features, especially the new penetration system, so please join our test servers later this week. Detailed patch notes will be posted in a couple of days.

We hope to see you there!

Was only just talking about in game friends last night.

Any one get a stutter on this game? I have it on nothing else, or at least not obviously.

It seems constant perhaps every 10 secs? But not regular.

I wonder if my CPU is struggling in silence.

You got shadow play? Just open the demo and clip what you need. Shouldn't be to big in size. The kill cam might as well be disabled as it doesn't represent what is happening in-game.

SPG · 6 Mar 2018 at 12:55

Last night, I am already dead but down to the last two squads....

Circle is in Team OCUK favour.... Player who shall rename nameless throws a stun grenade, proceeds to flash himself, a tree and the match is lost

Pure comedy gold, its moments like this that make DISCORD such fun, glad we all saw the funny side

Ryan-3 · 6 Mar 2018 at 13:33

Had my second cheater the other day. Guy managed to take my whole squad out with some of the fastest running I've seen, and absolutely no recoil.

Oh, go on, who was it?

In fact, someone must be able to get the replay

Steveocee · 6 Mar 2018 at 13:44

I've had some good fun lately joining squad play and teaming up with randoms. Couple of times I was on my own and managed to wreck my way through squads.
Is there an OCUK group or something I can join so I can at least play with people I kind of almost know but don't really?
