I'm not disputing that and I was merely making an example. I rarely find myself in such a position, my top 10 percentage last season was nearly 20% for solos and during current season is 50%.

I fully exploit both modes, I just find 1st person a more level playing field compared to 3rd.

My win rate is nowhere near yours but yes I did find 1st person a more level playing field, both from getting shot at and shooting back.

3rd person can regularly end with a stalemate of two parties each stood behind separate trees looking at each other without seeing the enemy. You know he's there, he knows youre there. First to peek loses.

I've used it just as much as I've been killed by it, but I definitely find first person 'fairer' i.e IRL if I wanted to see someone I'd have to stick my head out, I like that risk in this. Will see how it plays out though and still enjoy 3psn

First person is really enjoyable, I prefer it, but im either killed early on or make it until the last 5! Not won a game yet!

Shroud just won a Solo FPP 'troll' game with VSS & glock, 17 kills.

This kill in particular was nuts, seems he's taken his movement in GO and adapted it well to PUBG:

VSS is rubbish ! he got lucky with that combo ! I shot a bloke 2 times in the head with VSS with bike helmet and he still didnt go down.

Shroud is a machine. His raw aim is the best I've seen

Glanza · 8 Aug 2017 at 14:15

Can't watch the clip here but I have a feeling because he won suddenly stream snipers must have left him alone.

What's the general consensus on moving to the very inner circles towards end game, say last 8-15. I seem to get caught out at this point although only have a few hours play time.

I think my best weapon at the moment is "vehicle" Can't hit anything today with a gun.

Offline for anyone else?

It's back - phew!

On my A game today, been struggling with this for weeks, FP mode has helped then today chicken dinner - 9 kills, aim on point, 180 spin kills several times nice to be the one getting the kill when being on the back foot, completely owned the round m416 is my favourate gun on the game fully kitted out.

Has the Vector been nurfed? Couple of games I've emptied 2 13 round clips with the guy standing and today an extended mag and he dropped literally on the last round - this thing used to rip before, was my go to close range.

Boycey0211 · 8 Aug 2017 at 22:51

It'll depend on where the final circle is going and what cover there is, most of the time I prefer to patrol the edge of the circle but if there's a good bit of cover near the middle of it then I'll dig in and periodically Meerkat and check for targets.

Generally, if I do that then I get hit from multiple places. If I stay around the outside I end up having to move right across to the other end as the next zone is never in my favour. Just my experience

I don't think there is any one way that would work, its so situation based. I try to come into the final circle on the off-side to where the drop line was, you're less likely to bump into people - or at least you were early in the season. I stay on the edges for the final two or three circles and start crawling immediately inwards scanning 360 staying in the grass - thats 3pp of course. I don't shoot anyone unless there is a chance they'll see me - at this point its not about kills, its about winning the game and shooting is just telling everyone where you are. When I am down to three I stay still even if i'm just outside the final circle, pop meds and wait for the other two to shoot it out and hopefully pick off the survivor.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, everyone does it differently. Ive lost a couple of wins this season because I turned into a little girl and started firing away at number two with an smg when theres a SCAR on my back with scopes, or just didnt realise I was in the circle and he wasnt which means he would have had to run to me.

get in early dont shoot unless you know you can kill people and wont lead to you getting killed.often the main reason you die in the last ten is because you get in a fire fight which you just give your position away and multiple people kill you.
