So is calling someone a fucboi a way for people to call someone a fag without worrying about being criticized for anti-gay remarks ?


Google search seems to offer two definitions, one being similar to "swagfags" from a few years ago, and the other being a grey area insult. Reason I ask is that lirik guy using the term "fucboi hut" in that killing spree stream from the other day.

It does match based on skill, at least in some way. Watch some of the streamers that win more often. Their lobbies often take several minutes to fill up compared to seconds, and games sometimes don't even get to 80-90 players before the match starts. Difference in play/coordination is also noticeable, as well as them coming across the same people repeatedly.

Yep, the main streamers that I watch just bought new accounts today because they are too high ranked and were struggling to fill servers with people ranked high enough. Not to mention that they would run up against the same players over and over again, meaning that stream sniping started to become a real issue.

Nice job, dude. although I bet you were kicking yourself when you opened up on that last guy the first time. I know I would have. That's the kind of thing that gets me killed so much.

I didn't think it was a gay slur? A "gently caress boy" is just a male "whore" as far as I knew. Someone who gets lucky a lot.

Were gas cans more useful in an older patch? It seems like every vehicle starts with a full tank and even holding down the turbo across the whole map I still had enough fuel to not worry about running out. Right now they just seem like a big mostly-useless block to hold in your inventory.

Seems like lots of cars have 1/4 or 1/2 tank when spawned. Gas isn't necessary most games, but it sure can help when you need it (out of gas far from circle).

Gas is really only an issue if you start with a low tank and then have to constantly boost to get out of gunfire. Otherwise it might as well be a non-event, either the car is going to blow up, flip, or you are going to get shot out of it.

You know that these message boards aren't a collective entity, and actually are full of people with different opinions. So no that's not a contradiction, , yes, it makes sense that different people say different things.

:ssh: The point is these things go hand in hand to balance the game, and there's actually lots of soft cover. Even nearly flat fields have enough variations to break sight lines most of the time, which is either intentional or an amazing stroke of luck. Most of the fields also have the best cover in the game, a 3 foot tall bush.

It's not that the game doesn't need more terrain balance work, but the soul of the game is way more throwing grenades to flush the other guy hiding in a field than it is 1km+ sniping.

A 'fuckboi' is the type of popped-collar frat boy who's only interest is sex and partying. Well, in the UK at least.

I barely hear people use it outside of the internet though.

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.

Fuckboy is what woke people say instead of human being. Its got the same strong f sound and is used in exactly the same way

Not a slur is preferable to a slur but when theyre used in the exact same context and in the exact same way is it really that different?

this game is much more fun if you stop actively avoiding fights and start contesting the best position immediately when the new circle outline is established. also, having a bridge barricade with 5+ cars on one of the bridges along the military island is real cool now that they added cover on the bridge. blowing up 4 people in a vehicle feels good.

Pyrion is a little baby who cannot stop complaining and whining. I have no idea how people can enjoy watching this manchild play videogames. A couple of people have 'recommended' him to me and I couldn't stand more than a couple of minutes of his faux boss attitude. I am not surprised in the least that he threw his toys out of the pram at 'backseat gaming'. What a babbo
