Shoreline is riddled with sweaty tryhards at the moment, many of them rocking thermals and lighthousing

Lob a nade in before approach

.

Had a couple of sods try that on me but got lucky and ran around the outside and extracted before they could fix themselves and follow.

Assume you're talking about Spa buildings...i'm actually yet to get killed there.

I meant there are a lot of folks watching the woods from elevated positions with thermals/lighthousing and just pinging everything that moves. I know this as I got the drop on a few with a hatchet yesterday #feelsgoodman

Ahh I had some sods waiting in lighthouse for people to extract as soon as I entered it they opened up but thankfully missed loads whilst I ran away

. Sorry thought that's what you meant by lighthousing.

There's a lighthouse? Honestly never spotted it.

Nah, I meant people who literally sit on a high spot and just scope round and around with thermals.

Haha there's an exit called lighthouse. Bottom of the map on the peninsula. People seem to hide in it waiting for people to extract

I think I'm addicted to this game. I first played it Thursday evening. As of last night when I went to bed I had about 25 hours in game :eek:

How can you tell hours played?

Bog standard is fine tbh. Anything and everything you get at the start with the higher tiered options you will lose. No ifs and or buts, you will lose it.

Ideal - thanks, going to get now.

Looks like a steep learning curve!

Loads of videos and good guides on Youtube but someone also put this together on Reddit the other day which is well worth a look: https://docs.google.com/document/d/...E4btgdbLrKT2C_dg/preview?usp=sharing&sle=true

Didn't think that was possible. Nice.
