PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS - Thread

They've posted on their twitter saying they're having issues with the login servers. I'd just had my first game too. Landed, walked into a house, picked up a bow, got shot in the back.

My first game landed, got in one of those shed things, only had a machete, then spent what must have been almost a minute of frantically hacking and quickly shutting the door from a guy with a pistol trying to finishing me off; if just his aim was a tiny bit worse I could have got him.

Yes, can not get on t the minute.

Had an epic moment last night, sniping from a rooftop with my getaway car stashed. Killed one who was getting shot in the back whilst running to my building from someone further behind him. I then took a few potato shots at the other guy, who returned fire damaging me hard. After he didn't repeek I decided to get to my Dacia. I get outside, as I turn the corner, finger ready on "F" to enter *splat, he is in my car and driving off. I had so little health the mearest touch from the car as he took off killed me.

Amazing game.

You need nerves of steel in this game, especially near the end. Countless times I have been top 10-15. Last game a classic example, down to 15 inside a very small white circle. I can see where one man is, though too risky to push him. As that blue ring pushes in though, the temptation to do so becomes overwhelming. I make the move on him and after only a few steps I am shot dead from at least 3 different positions as I run for cover. I had loads of pills, health and energy drink aswell. That is it too learning the tactics and timings of end game. So far I am Mr Crumble.

Quite tempted by this but not sure my PC is up to it or I have the patience to win as it looks like camping is a necessity. Got an Intel Core i5 2500K, 8GB DDR3 1866MHz with a GTX 760 2048MB.

I'm playing on an i5 750 with 8gb ram and a 380x. Just about playable if I turn most everything down. I'm pretty sure it's more the i5 holding it all back to be honest. Hope that gives you an idea of how it'd play on your system.
 
Played some 4 man squad matches tonight with friends, absolutely brilliant, different dynamic again compared to solo and duo, each mode is so fun in its individual way.

I managed to make it to the last two for the first time today, got pinched and decided to rush the other guy. Ended up selecting my grenade by mistake and got executed without firing a shot, the humiliation was real. This game makes me flap far too much.
 
1 win, 3 second places, and 4 in top 10 finishes solo today :)

Played group for a while (4) but got wrecked so early - im too nervous in a group in this game at the moment so will crack on with solo for a while longer.
 
I think playing sole is more easy than Squad play. Sole you don't need to worry about friends position etc You free to move along in your own time, You also come into fights 1v1 more often than not.

Yeah that's why I like it, I don't need to worry about spotting incorrectly etc as well.

Would like to try duo's more though, seems fun.

Duo's is fun but harder as when you take them down they tend to become incapacitated, so the crawling off becomes a chore the moment they get revived.

Also there seems to be multiple duo's teaming up together, me and kwango had a game last night and spotted people trying to take the final circle, opened up on one of them and got a few hits, kwango gets killed after landing some good hits. So at this point I assume one heavily injured and one fully alive. Kwango starts calling enemies as he sees them move on spectator cam and he's calling them all over the place. I hang back assuming thats a second duo coming into the fight and lie down assuming that out of four worst I'm going to have to face is 2 injured survivors. Nope, all four start to flank me and I get finished pretty soon after. Not seen that in solo mind.

they were working together too, all four were in sight distance of about 50m of each other and were purely concentrating on me.
 
You know you maybe have played too much PUBG. When you go to make a brew and for that fraction of a second your heart is in your mouth wondering did I leave those doors open.

Duo is the go to mode IMO. I've never seen pairs of Duo's working together?

When myself or a team mate is downed, can sometimes work to your advantage as people tend to rush the downed player to finish him, only to be meet with a quick death.

Nice to have decent un spoken tactics working in pairs also... My mate I when entering a house, we'll go in together, he takes left and I take right, at least that way we aren't left with our fingers up our **** if someone is hiding in a corner.... Works even better in squads of 4... corner each!

Thats very good news, thats how it should be. Nobody in any online shooter should be able to remove things on their "client" and then be able to see things that others cant. Either there is grass there or there isnt. Cant have it be there just for some people, I mean imagine if people could remove walls. Cover must be cover for all. So thats good news.

One of my bug bears of cod 4 hated how it removed camo when you ran on lowest details

Had this, thought this is not how grenades work. Hopefully theyll patch it lol.

Bought the game and after a wobbly start - whats that white circle, why is there a shimmery forcefield coming at me etc. - the game has really grown on me. After losing some relatively simple shootouts i should have won, im now jumping early with the masses to get some quick pvp practice.

Only downsides are some very warpy games every now and then. If i cant get through a door in three tries i quit out. Otherwise its like DayZ with a sharp point. Will hit up discord later as ive muted the in game vox, like standing outside an asylum.
