PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS - Thread

TPP lets you observe without exposing yourself, you just stand tight against a wall, can see round corners etc. At least in FPP you can only see others if they can see you.

Video above shows it well.

and equally you can be observed without knowing it....ergo it's easier for you to see people but it's also easier for other people to see you......so it's swings and roundabouts. you can't say one mode is easier than the other just because you can see someone more easily.

So wait, in a scenario like this, people are saying that although you can use 3rd person to spot others, as in the video, the others can do the same to you. So they're saying the people that were grenaded could've used 3rd person to spot the people behind the wall???
I get that everyone can do the same thing, but that just makes it easier for everyone.
In FPP if you go prone in grass, all you can see is grass, you have to go to crouch to look for people (behind trees or running in). in TPP you can see perfectly well (including behind you) without giving yourself away. Now anyone else prone i nthe grass is in the same boat, or people behind trees or whatever, but anyone not behind cover has less chance of spotting you.

I just want to know the easiest way to share a replay or at least part of one. I can’t see any way within the game to do this. I googled it before posting here and could only find saving the demo folder online for others to download and view via their own replay folder which seemed a ballache tbh. If I can just copy a certain file type and upload it to my YT account for others to stream then pls let me know what I am missing.

No, the game doesn't automatically record and convert every game you play to a video file in the background. If you want to record a video of gameplay you'll need to use an app that records video of gameplay. Then upload the video wherever you want.

Download Fraps and record the replay from the deathcam or record the whole match and edit the parts you want and then upload to YouTube, takes minutes.
 
3rd person gives too much advantage to the person behind a wall. Especially true on a game with a circle/death zone that moves randomly. If the circle forces you to move at someone who has a wall there is absolutely no chance of winning. You can peek and instantly shoot because you can see him the entire time. No chance for the guy without cover to react. At least in FPP the person in the open has a chance to actually fight. If you damage the person behind the wall you actually get some leverage to work with while the wall guy heals - you can relocate and make it harder for the person with the cover advantage. In 3rd he's just watching you the entire time, even if he's been outplayed and has to heal. That's why I don't like 3rd person and find 1st person a more even playing field.

That saying I don't want TPP to be removed and don't care if you prefer it. Just play whatever you find fun lol.

total nonsense.the other players you are against has the same ability as you.so it comes down to game sense.if you get third personed behind a wall its your fault.bad play.thats the problem with third person.someone plays better than you kills you its cause its third person.no.its cause you made a bad play and lost.

first person.i go prone in grass you cant be seen.done.how is that more skilled? it isnt.you can camp as much as in third.its actually worse.

the truth is good players wont make excuses.you will be good at either.if you blame third for whatever you are a bad player.simple.

the funny thing is what you just described i just won two games against a person doing what you said.in singles. its just down to who plays better.he had better position third person me but still killed them.you do have a chance if you play better than the person in the better position and loot and have a decent aim.

quite......there's a lot of folk will go to great lengths to discredit the different modes, TPP in particular.

lots of people going to similar lengths to defend them as well.

I'm not that bothered, I'll play either if a friend wants to play one, but I have my preference. If it's good enough for Shroud/DrDisRespect/Sacriel/etc. then it's good enough for me. Those guys really don't seem to like 3rd person!

who? I don't see anyone defending TPP per se, more they are saying their all the same as far as easiness goes. it seems its the anti (why?) TPP getting all uptight saying....'nope, TPP is easy mode'

Both game modes have their place, I don't think it's any accident however that FPP is the established competitive mode.

Trying to steer ship slightly on this thread, the new 4x4 Savage map will be FPP Solo only for the 1st round of testing in EU/NA. Hopefully won't have to wait too long for Duo/Squads.

All the cheaters people have posted in the last month or so have played FPP only, wonder if thats because the legit players moved over to it to get away from them?

Genuinely cant remember the last time i played TPP, wonder if you can even get a match on it anymore.

Until a popular game comes along like Fortnite, then they suddenly don't care about 3rd person all of a sudden.
