Of course not but it's more people getting one shot on someone who I've got 4-5 hits on already and done the majority of damage. What I'm saying is that, I'm all for a chicken dinner but can you honestly tell me it's fun getting a chicken dinner when you've contributed absolutely nothing towards it, like getting 0 kills for the team? Hardly a win in my opinion. Game just turns into a walking simulator and nothing else. I feel they should make it so if you get the majority of hits on an enemy who is then killed shortly after, it should be the person who inflicted the most damage towards that player gets the kill.

I had an awp on a game I played last night, I must have hit 8 - 10 players, all who got practically one shotted straight after, I'm all for team play but it gets terribly tedious not getting a single kill...

Plenty of games where the squad has won and I've very few or zero kills and I still enjoyed it. A win is a win IMO.

I'll reiterate my original point to you, stop playing with randoms and knobs. Squad up with mates or the OcUK guys and enjoy the game. It's not a COD free for all type game, even solo, so you'll have to accept 'kill stealing' - chicken is the goal not kills.

I'm not sure how it constitutes a walking simulator if you're doing the majority of the damage to the enemy. Maybe you need to try and get more headshots, and I'm not saying that in a "get good" kind of way, but top players won't have the issue you're speaking about. If you want to get more kills then you need to focus on what you can change rather than saying the game is broken/rubbish. Maybe you aren't giving your team mates enough credit if you're winning so many games that your main concern is that you don't have enough kills on the board at the end of it.

I appreciate you didn't have a dig at me and yeh maybe you're right, I need to go for headshots instead or change my play style up. After 400 hours on the game, personally a chicken dinner (although it's always good to win), isn't necessarily my main aim. Getting kills and feeling like there has been some action in the game I've just invested 30 minutes into is my main priority. Might just have to start taking this game less seriously or something. Anyways cheers for the response

Yeh I may have to, how do you go about playing with guys from OcUK, just post your steam details or what? Yeh I think for me though, having put in already 400+ hours, a chicken dinner is not as satisfying as it used to be, like I said before, after investing 30 minutes into a game I like to feel I've had some action and got some kills or it kinda seems wasted. I dunno but I won't bore you anymore haha, thanks for the response.

I've had way too many hours to care about dinners now, I don't get the rush I used to when we won, my heart would be pounding but now it's just "yay"

.

I'm just focusing on being aggressive and a goodsh KD. Happy with that even if I don't win now.

Another cheater last night, wiped about 5 full squads as well as ours.

I'm at work so haven't watched it all and without sound but if you mean the guy that killed you? It just looks like high latency to me, probably from Asia. On his screen your position won't have updated yet and were still exposed for him to be able to shoot you.

EDIT: Just checked - China. They generally have a minimum 280ms latency to the EU servers going from one point to the other.

Doubly checked. I see the game you mean now, passed the name on to be checked.

Also can confirm a lot of cheats around, lucky to get a win these days.

Bishie · 27 Oct 2017 at 16:41

Prattler and I saw someone wipe out a bunch of squads in last night's game. It's definitely becoming a problem! They're not even subtle about it, because each kill was the result of a headshot. I must've reported two people at least.

Edit: See video above.

Boycey0211 · 27 Oct 2017 at 16:49

Apparently theyve done some backend anticheat patching today, time will tell...

Throughout the game he downed 3 team m8s and finished the last guy with a head shot, I saw him do this 4 or 5 times. I have the full game recorded.

Yeah I see, 23 kills in that game with the majority being headshots. His time is coming

But from your video alone I'd have just blamed that on the latency difference for an Asian player and not thought much of it, obviously now knowing he got far more than avg kills in that one round then he's pretty dodgy enough.

Maybe already posted but not spotted it;

Vaulting and climbing is coming to test servers next week

Not 100% convinced that was cheats.

Boycey0211 · 27 Oct 2017 at 22:58

Another weekend, same old story 'I'll be on in 5' @Thekwango ...

Bishie · 28 Oct 2017 at 00:53

These mishaps are fast becoming a habit, lol. I should start a series!

Not conclusive at all in that video, neither are his stats; looking at them he could either be good or a bad hack user.

The "Live tracker" on the link to his stats shows him active as of 18 mins ago and checking his lifetime stats as below he is either extremely good or hacking. I was wrong at first glance. :-

This game is brutal as I have played for few hours still no kills but is dead fun to play with team.

Dose anyone have any tips for sorting frame drops? As I get in to gun fights I get a sudden frame drop like 70% of the time?

Thanks Joshua

Have to say we encountered a cheater last night as well... as we approached around the top 20 we started to notice a guy whose name was just a string popping up in the killfeed with 2, 3 or even 4 headshot downs/kills at the exact same moment... He downed 2 of us all of a sudden with headshots, then our surviving squadmate managed to win with a well placed grenade - which was pretty satisfying
