Been playing this all evening. Seasoned vet on PC, really impressed with this on console. I managed to have quite a few top 10 finishes. Came second on one game but just couldnt get the win. Had no medkits or cover. I was sitting at 40th on the EU leaderboards. Doubt it will stay that way for long .

I watched a couple of your game clips

whetted my appetite for the game.

Downloading now and will get some game time tomorrow

Does anyone know when you see another player can you talk to them??

Not heard anyone talk yet

How does this compare to Fortnite then? I've been really enjoying playing that the last few weeks and it is free!

I can’t imagine the combination of twitchy gunplay, recoil and the terrible optimisation (it’s still poor on PC) will make this much fun on console.

Doubt I’ll go back to Fortnite now after getting this.

Ive played a few games and loving it.

It runs pretty well on my Scorpio and only going to get better.
Fortnite is fun but this is better imo and way more tense

Not sure about this to be honest.

Playing on my One X and it just seems so slow and sluggish compared to the PC version!
Looking forward to future updates, hopefully the performance can be improved

I guess we need to remember it is early access so hopefully they can fine tune control based on feedback etc

Just remember how the PC version was, and how it is now.

I'm sure they will nail it.

Performance has improved but netcode is still junk.

I suspect the PC version may play second fiddle to the console version now too.

It runs bad. So, so bad.

Textures all over the place, assets dropping in well after you've landed and run around, aiming is completely fubar and the resolution and framerates are awful.

I love pubg on the pc, this on the other hand.... pretty disappointing

I used to have these issues when playing on PC but than changed install to my SSD and it completely solved it.

As for Xbox, can't help you I'm afraid.. disappointed to hear it's only 30fps though.

I doubt it with 25+ million copies sold personally. Its regularly the most active game on Steam.

The Game is out as an early access game I.e. it's still in development but you can buy and play now. Xbox call it the game preview program

Yes I think so

Is it long dark out now though? I think it is on pc maybe the full launch schedules differ

Wow, so the One X renders at native 4K....

That was its main aim and for this it does but they dropped the FPS to 30 in order to achieve it. Other titles use things like checkerboarding to reach 4K.
