Or in my case - 1/ Land in congested areas to practice dying
Depends on if you are solo/duo/squad in Solo i tend to go for somewhere out of the way as you can usually find a decent amount of loot for 1 or maybe 2 in most places on the map, but with a squad you need to land somewhere where there is a reasonable chance of getting enough loot for the 4 of you, which means there are less places that you can go.
If you are happy to long jump then you can usually go somewhere good for loot and quiet at the same time, had a few games that a squad has been able to drop in Gerogopol, Mylta, power station or polyana without anyone else going there if you take a long jump.

Long term? No, however when you first starting out it pays to practice and get used to it because if you spend your starter hours hiding out you arent getting any experience in fire fights for when it gets down to it.

It's good practice for aiming and movement, but also for looting under pressure. Additionally if you're winning the fights, you're taking their loot too.

That is the beauty of this game, if you fancy action right from the go land in a busy area, if you fancy playing a stealthy game land elsewhere. Game is really fun though.
Vorehees...is that you?
I'm gonna have to purchase this soon, got H1 last week and have been learning that as its my first time using keyboard and mouse. Just got my first solo win today so getting the hang of it. PUGB looks great from what Ive seen compared to H1.

Its pretty good but Ive noticed sometimes it does lag a little on my 1080ti/6700 @ 4.9ghz. Not in the parts you would expect it either and sometimes just when you are walking around.
I imagine I'd be okay on a 980Ti ?
Even on my 780ti(= 980 almost) i max this game out, never a problem, but i only play at 1080P, maybe my 6700K and ddr4 helps thou, but have had to turn off Hyper Threading because of the intel skylake problem, but i guess for gaming this dont matter.
Stock 6700k, 16GB DDR4 and GTX 1070 @ 1440P and it runs beautifully for me.
There was the odd hitch as such pre current patch but since then it's been smooth as it can be for me. I assume the server side of things was the improvement there along with some of the graphical optimisations they added.

Been playing this game for 2 weeks now and I love it . There are not many games that keep me wanting more and I get bored very easily but this game I just cant get enough and it goes to show how popular it is with 4 or 5 groups of (4) on the discord channel every evening over the past few weeks, I'm really looking forward to seeing how this game develops over the coming months but at the moment its a blast , don't get me wrong its very stressful to play at times but also very very rewarding when you win a game with your team or alone.
A few tips for new people playing the game , learn all the quick command keys in the game , always loot with the F key if its just 1 item its a lot quicker now after the update. when prone its better to shoot using the cross hair and not the sight. make sure you a just the 4 x & 8 x Scope when shooting people in the distance. always hide behind Trees or rocks and never run out in open fields I guarantee if you do someone will be watching you & most of all go and have some fun and enjoy the game.

Its a problem that is very specific and maybe 1% of us will ever see it. Ive ran my 6700k since launch @4.9ghz and it never goes above 55 degrees while being 100% stable.
