This game is like crack to me, not gamed this much in ages.

Ditto.

Damn! They've fixed the Molotov/plane issue at the start of games!

Interesting...

• Decreased the Starting Island item spawn levels in order to adjust the item balance on the Northeast side of Erangel

Never occurred to me the spawn island could gimp the loot in the NE corner.

Seems that player unknown has put himself into a corner saying that game will be 'out' by the end of the year. That's a lot of dev work to do in not much time. Hope I'm wrong and it is ready by year end though.

What does that mean?

He never realised you could go across to starting island and loot it.

We done it the other day, it wasn't that good. The picnic benches are all empty. I mean we had enough to do well for most of the game, but theres plenty of better options.

That you'll find more decent loot items in the top NE corner of the map now, becuase there are fewer on the starting island (I guess that there are a balanced number and type of item spawns within a defined area of the map).

Notice the change in wording though recently. Instead of just being released an awful lot of fixes are now described as "in progress and will continue after release".

Basically the game is going to be released still broken or not.

My main concern at the moment is if they're going to DLC the new map. I suspect they will.

Edit: That monthly patch notes is pretty sparse...

Makes sense I suppose. Not that I've ever been up in the NE corner.

Microsoft gave them the irresistible $$$ for the console port. Probably have so much dev time working on it, as that's potentially another 5m+ copies sold

It has got to run like trash on an Xbox. Still need a pretty good pc to run at 60fps.

I would love to know how much Microsoft paid. Wouldn't be overly surprised if it was a fair chunk of what they've already made from pc sales.

 

[Daytrader]

I reckon on the Xbox One, they may have the new map as added paid dlc ?

I reckon that'll be the same on PC.

Oh, i thought it would be just free in a update.

Ran into my first cheater last night. As the others have said, a random with a name built of random numbers after YH. Pulls up on a bike and headshots my entire team from about 300m away.

I had one yesterday too, Wsomething34564746235259blah sort of thing. Speedhacker, who was not very good at it, as he stood still for long enough next to me to kill him!

******* every server I pick, there is CHINA NUMBER ONE.

How do I find English speakers in this ******* game?

They haven't said free yet afaik. Hence the cynical belief they'll be charging for it.

Would have expected an announcement saying "free" by now.

I suspect they'll announce the DLC being paid at the same time vaulting is added. Negate some of the whinging.
