PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS - Thread

I've been playing this game for about 30 hours, but still terrible at it!

The highest number of kills I've ever had in a single match is 3, but most of the time I get 0.
I'm pretty good at evading combat and sneaking in to the top 10, though finding the gun control quite difficult - i.e. gauging distance and where to aim. I guess I just need more (a lot more) practice, and to keep dropping in to those hot zones.

You've got it right there! Don't expect to feel confident till you're at least 100 hours in, just need to put yourself in as much combat as possible, at as many ranges as possible, with as many guns as possible! :D
 
if you new to these kind of games will take a while.best thing id suggest is just drop in hot places like school flats and dont worry about dying.its the quickest way you will learn about which weapon suits you.everyone is different.also play styles vary no one is right.some wave right some get to the middle early.there is no wrong way just different opinions.

one little tip id give you is x4 scope is easier than a x8 for range shots most of the time unless really long shots.on a kar its just point at head shoot.this is all changing though with the test build.so if you can start playing the test build now and you will be ready for when it goes live. to install test build look in steam under pubg and it will say test server. seems stupid but many ask how to install it. :p

Yeah, I already have the test server installed. Will give it a go.
I am very used to FPS like Counter Strike, but the weapon control in Pubg takes some getting used to - that's for sure!
 
I don't like the plane changes (lines, direction of flight) just seems so unnecessary.

Unsure of the aim punch mechanics, so a fine excuse to put some hours in tonight :-)
 
Yeah as mentioned several times, the plane line just seems like a bit of work done by someone who run out of work on a Friday afternoon. So pointless
 
I’ve finally got a mic and started playing Squads with the OcUK discord peeps. Very enjoyable and won a few games already.

Playing squad mode definetly feels less smooth than solo and find that my fps fluctuates a lot more. Is that just a quirk of the game due to 4 others always being nearby or possibly an issue?
 
Shroud winning a solo match with 24 kills using only a vss and boomstick. He's on a completely different level to everyone, it's insane.
 
Ive been playing PUBG for months now and best finish has been 3rd... The missus has been playing it for 2 days and got a chicken dinner last night :p

It’s the fact he does it whilst chatting to justin, chadd, drdis etc, whilst reading his twitch sub messages and drinking coffee. I have about 5% of that skill in full on concentration mode. A lot of the kills are stream snipers coming after him but even then it takes some skill to outsmart someone who knows your location.
 
Don't hate... BUT

Played around 300 hours in PUBG. Went over the Fornite, enjoyed and stayed.

Anyways, I finished the season pass so thought I'd have a few rounds on PUBG. What a terribly made game, Its so slow and clunky. I can now see what people mean when they say it still feels cheap.

When you step away and return... wow. Awful. The sand map is dreadful. Had a few kills. But so slow.

Pretty sure you have a decent background in Day Z mod etc Goon. Would you want that to be like fortnite? PubG creator has his roots in the Arma modding scene, so it's no surprise the game play is supposed to be a slower, tactical, thought-out experience.

Not defending the bugs that exist though :)

glad you enjoying fortnite. i cant stand it personally all it is is rocket launcher or grenade launcher and shotgun . also mainly made for kids. with your back ground and this being a arma based mod which you played like me from the start im surprised you dont like this more. desert map isnt that bad if you learn where is the good spots to loot and get a sniper and a decent scope. the new patch soon will give you the chance to pick whatever map you want.so that wont matter soon.also the new smaller map is amazing. fortnite will lose a lot of players and streamer when that hits cause its all out fun and action. :D

As you know, bugs kinda made arma haha. But yes, I'd prefer the movement and animations to be quicker.

I dunno, it just felt absolutely AWFUL. The player animation didn't feel like he was running on the ground, the jump just seemed weird. The gun play felt slow and underwhelming.

Be interesting to see what AAA publishers like BF doing with BR
 
Was running through the hills on Miramar and came across 3x untouched crates all right next to each other! Level 3 armour and helmet, ghillie suit, nicked the ammo for the AWM :D and took the AUG.

Some luckily placed bushes and I had a 9 kill ChickenDinner without being shot at once :D

Fornite brings what Dayz/Epoch did without the grind.... Fun and Lolz. You keep saying its a kids game.... Its been voted the most accessible game of all time. You're just looking at the skins and graphics. The game play is the best around! Rocket and nade spam spoils it. but even so the game is gold!

PUBG is just rinse repeat, nothing changes just a different setting..... Mixed in with the slow placed camp terrible animation makes it an average game.

As I said be interesting to see what a triple A publisher does with it.
