PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS - Thread

I still think that there isn't enough cover in erangel, it's far too open outside the towns, easy pickings for snipers. There needs to be more woods like the one above Mansion in various places. An increase in the minimum grass distance would also be good.
 
It has turned into a camper fest now with so many sniper rifles. CQB is in hot drops so at the start you are only playing with relatively rubbish weapons. 1000 hours and I think it's about done for me. Some people sniping abilities and one shot knock outs just takes the 'shooter' out of it. People can peak and get a headshot in less than a second helped by the de sync and terrible frame times or cheating. Get killed when behind a tree etc. Camperfest now.

With the private servers can the admins select to turn off certain weapons like no sniper? Would make better assualt games instead of everyone with camper rifles.
 
I had micro stutters which I just accepted as people say pubg is bad. Found this on google about adjusting virtual page file (fix stuttering section) and seems so much better since then:

Agreed you shouldnt have to be tweaking things to get decent performance. Unless you experience the stutters you won’t understand how annoying. Some folks seem to have no issues off the bat.

My only real annoyance is the delay on loot appearing. So frustrating to land first but room is empty only to run back in a couple of secs later and its all there.

chocoTaco finally got some well overdue skins. I bought the chute as had some spare cash in my Steam Wallet. First skin I have ever bought but I find his YT vids (normally 2 a day) highly entertaining – especially the random duo matches. Seems like a down to earth bloke and has stuck with PUBG when others jumped ship. So happy to contribute something back.
 
change how you move or do it sooner. if you getting sniped a lot its how you moving or where you going. circle sense and moving at right times is actually the most important thing in the game. if you doing something and it keeps getting you killed stop doing it. i know many people who will do the same things over and over they get killed and blame this that or another anything than themselves just changing what they doing to become better. never peak the same place twice !

Doesnt sound like a game I wanna play much, timing and this and that after 15 minuytes of shopping. All very generic expertise and you could say that about any game. I'm talking about the amount of snipers and you said the same above. Sniper rifles are all too common and its made the game into a camperfest. All shooters get plauged with campers. even the battlefield games, hence why so many custom servers went no sniper/DMR. Made it much more of a shooter instead of Sniper Elite. Great concept of a game and I have really enjoyed it but me and the 3 people I play with who have been gaming together for 20+ years have all found it to be sniper heavy. Cheats I can do in respawnable games but PUBG spend 15 mins shopping only to have that time of your life taken to never get back due to some hack.I dont want to have to play a vertain way to make up for the syncing issues/ping issues in the game. That's just not a shooter, albeit a shooter requiring real team tactics and very good awareness of surroundings. Been playing shooters for 25 years+ and PUBG just isnt at the 'feel' level I think shooters should be at in this day and age. WIth the money they made they coulda spent some sorting it ut, it's not like they couldnt afford it.

Bet I still play it tonight

I must come and play with you guys to see 'how its done'

I'm getting odd performance now. When I upgraded my PC it was always a pretty solid 120-130 FPS. Now I seem to get drops while parachuting (went down to 40 odd the other day) and doing normal stuff like when vaulting a wall. It only drops for second or so but is very frustrating. Nothing configuration wise has changed my end.
 
come join on discord we play every day. the biggest problem many people is they learn a way to play pubg and wont adapt. i change on the fly if needed. you have to. most snipers arent campers either. decent players wont shoot from same places and will move constantly. people who are decent with snipers will head shot you regular with bolt rifles. that is skilled . the thing is if you are constantly getting sniped in games then you are either going to the wrong places or doing something wrong. elimate that and you wont get sniped as much. snipers arent that common on the other maps apart from the latest update which only effects erangel. so its not a game encompassing statement. it is just erangel which after a week of feedback from raging pc players they will then adjust the gun ratio again to find balance. this is part of game development. they have to put it out to see if it works then adjust after a short period of time to find the right balance to keep.

campers arent a issue. they are the easiest people to kill if you know where they will be or expect them to be. once you learn the game and play it often enough recognize the key parts people will camp or predict the probability or read the situation well enough you know that guy a is at this that building. good players do this and thats why learning the circle and gameplay knowledge is acutally far more important in pubg than actual shooting.

gametime doesnt reflect game knowledge. i know see and play with some people who have thousands of hrs of pubg yet will die instantly every game blame the game when its there lack of understanding . learn from your mistakes dont do the same thing if you keep getting killed like that. some people will drop areas time and time again even though they die shortly after landing there. why would you do that ? really puzzles me.

i personally think pubg is one of the best games of fps ever made. sure there is issues but not many games have been as good as this fps wise ever not for mp.

thats why there is still a million people every day playing it and why cod and battlefield are slowly dying. it is frustrating to die to a cheat i will agree but if all you look for is negatives all you will see is negatives. generally pubg is really great fun. as for battlefield and other games like sniper elite you cant compare them to pubg. sniper elite is a arcade nut shooting game that any xbox gamer can play ( can be fun i know i played them all and own them all ) and battlefield now is basically not far off. for casual 30 minutes of fun yeah i get why its easier to go have fun on those but in the long run pubg has far more than any of those games.

what do you mainly play squads , duos , singles ? whats your ingame name ? is it this one https://pubg.op.gg/user/Woodsta888

if so i can see why you not enjoying pubg. you seem to really struggle in it.

check to see if its gpu driver or windows update recently. yesterday when you was on about it i dont see why you should be getting those drops. only reason to get that kind of drop is maybe vikendi and at the very start in a busy area.

Yeah that's me, used to do better in solo but not recently. my mates wont even look around during parachuting and they make a lot of basic mistakes, then if they die they want you to quit and start again so end up having to go aggressive to fight. One of them is new and never played consoles or PC games and so forgiven on that and PUBG as a first game is hard so that has taken some quitting so they dont spend all evening waiting for us. BUt situational awareness is very poor in my mates. They do enjoy a drink or smoke so that doesnt sharpen the senses and one of them has started to regularly get battered whilst playing. PUBG just aint a game to play whilst under any influence.

I'll deffo come for some lessons another day if room in your squad. You guys probabaly doing lots I have never even thought of.

I'll come find you soon on OCUK discord

I guess we dont really count but in duos we like to drop hot everywhere except Mirimar.. School, bootcamp, castle... If the school isnt close we drop military sometimes hospital or bunkers if none of them are on route, but school usually is. Bootcamp is possible almost every single time... if castle is not near then we drop houses near dinocamp gear up then into dinocamp unless circle is a good stomp away... miramar we have 'cool' buildings as we call them (you know the garage one) in a few spots.

Sure, sometimes we get unlucky and dont manage a kill... but we are pretty much expert at knowing when to jump to get there 1st and more often than not come out the winners (we only do half of military then bugger off tho) because we know the spots like the backs our hands now with plenty of folk to kill before leaving. I hate games where you drop middle of nowhere spend an age looting up, dont see anyone for ages then die with no kills. Starting with a good fight pumps us up for the rest of the game... leaving these spot winners feels awesome and its good for kill count.

Your pretty much bang on about everything tho'.

Drivers were updated yesterday. No spikes in task manager at all.
 
you can always count on DG to gently put his point across, he's never one to stick the boot in....:p:p

it was true. often many people will say a games bad based on their own performance. once you struggle with pubg theres always APEX to goto. ;) .

its great to play with different people you can learn many things. i learn off many people i play with and have fun.
