This one is pretty nice as well. I ran into that a few rounds ago, during one firefight the light came in from just the right angle that the glare completely obscured the actual reticle.

I'm really looking forward to the hardcore FPS mode. PUBG is really fun but has reminded me how rear end I am at third person shooters. Speaking of, I'm really curious to see what the longevity of this game is. It's kind of insane to me how quickly they can fill a 100 person match, especially considering they queue separately for squads and duos, but it'll be interesting to see what it looks like when people have started to move on to other stuff.

So far I dont see that happening for a long while based on the quality of the game and the amount of H1Z1 and Arma III BR converts it has This is the first EA game in my mind that will probably actually leave EA close to on time

There is more fuckery to smoke grenades than just this but this is the worst aspect of them by far.

Smoke grenades look differently to each person because they use a seed and disperse from there so you may think you're fully covered on your screen but on your aggressor's screen you're standing next to the column of smoke masturbating

There are 100,000 people playing this midday on a Thursday, it came into EA in a really solidly playable state, and it's been updated 3 times since I bought it two and a half weeks ago. That doesn't mean anything for sure but it's a good sign. Who knows, but it's as popular as anything I've seen on Steam that isn't a Valve game.

The rush you get when you are in the top 10 is really amazing. I can't remember the last game that got me like this. The potential this game has is really something else. Also, is the pump lovely preferred over the over-under now?

The most surprising thing to me is that H1Z1 is still doing really, really well too. You would think with PUBG getting such big numbers so quickly that it would have cannibalized lots of players from the few other games in the genre, but it doesn't seem to have happened at all. To me, this says that the genre is growing very quickly, which points to some excellent longevity.

In michigan we can only use buckshot south of like Gaylord, then north of that you can use Rifles and in the Upper Peninsula we can use whatever I've only ever used firearms in michigan so I can't speak to what it's like elsewhere considering in australia only farmers could have firearms

If most FPSs represented the range of a 12g shotgun realistically then they would be the most OP weapons and there would be no reason to use rifles/SMGs. But since this game has a lot of long range fights it makes sense to keep it realistic.

I'm one of those people playing this game (badly) who has never played any other games in this genre. I'm also super lovely at hitting people with any of the guns and can't wait for some kind of shooting range so I can get some practice. I'm also rubbish at determining where shots are coming from based on sound... maybe I'm just a garbage player.

Futaba Anzu posted:new map looking good This has happened to me since launch but not since the 1st patch. While it's happening my hard drive is going nuts, so sometimes it's just a long load. I assume a SSD would clear this up. If you lay somewhere and give it some time, it loads the buildings. Just dont combat drop anywhere.

My buddy sat in a bush for 10 minutes in the center of 3 circles and didn't get shot at until near the very end. Here's the last 5 minutes of it. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/138385087 The takeaway is stop moving around when you don't need to, you ADD motherfuckers, movement is the easiest thing to spot.

I dont want to sound like a oval office here but this game does not work well on poorspec systems. I'm sure this will be resolved farther into development but i reckon it will still be a game that requires pretty high spec'd systems edit: considering i've been on poorspec machine for the last 8 years I feel your pain

For a 'shooting range', drop in solo, loot some weapons, and just practice shooting stuff. Quit to lobby if you run out of ammo and can't find any more nearby.

The reason why H1Z1 still seems to be holding on to it’s big numbers is that it’s been blowing up in China for a while now. That’s why H1Z1 can hit 140k players in the Steam stats but the player numbers just melt away past 12PM EST.
