I think part of the charm of the game right now is dying then getting into another match almost immediately, but my dream would be the ability to download Dota style replays from the server after dying of everything that happened in a given match. Or even just a map overlay that showed everyones' path through the game, Family Circus style.

Failing that, I'd love to see some player-death heatmaps. Wanna see how red the school gets.

I thought they were already doing replays and also showing you an overhead view of the map with dots for every single player and their movement throughout the game which I am very excited for

Actually, bicycles in general wouldn't be a terrible idea. You trade off faster moving that is quiet for having a tall profile and difficulty in hiding.

I wouldn't mind having non-combat objects for distractions. Like firecrakers on a long fuse. Or a flare gun. Sure you'd give away your position firing it, but maybe you light up some dude hiding in a bush.

I would just like a motorcycle variant with no sidecar so it wouldn't launch you in screwed up ways sometimes. That and a buggy variant with a third seat tied onto the front like one of those emergency plastic gurneys or something extremely stupid.

Yeah the name certainly didn't sell me on it. It was "PlayerUnknown must be some YouTube star I don't care about and he's just cashing in on his name," when I first heard about it. It took me looking at twitch one day and seeing it on the top spot to pay attention to it.

Thats so ninja...
Did a 3 man squad + 1 silent rando and got to taste that delicious chicken. Silent rando followed and shot true but barely missed making it to the final circle for a goddamn insane CQC firefight in a long garage out by the farms.
Last guy had downed me and another guy after we finished off his teammate in the garage. He jumped down the stairs and shot us with an UMP and moved to finish us off when our last surviving teammate jumped through the doorway and shot gunned him to the face.
Wish I had recorded it.
Next round I got #2 in a squad and goofed the finish in an easy win by deciding to see how useful leaning was to get a guy around a tree with a KAR98 w/8x. That is not the best time to try that feature out. If I had gone prone and snuck I could have got the drop on him.

How would you stop a squad from simply just killing off 3 of themselves while the last guy waits around in a car to go pick them up with their newly acquired military grade loot. Sure it'll last 5 minutes, but that's still dumb.

It wouldn't be a guaranteed thing, like if you die you have a small chance to go into the queue to get dropped. But yeah I'm in the park that battlegrounds is basically perfect anyway it's just fun to think of other ideas.

You can fire SMGs and pistols when you're riding behind on the sidecar bike, but not rifles or shotguns.

You can also swing a melee weapon while in a car and it will hit everyone in the vehicle, and has a high chance of getting a headshot on the other occupants.

Is the school even that good loot or is it just because it's a fairly good deathmatch layout and fairly central on the island?

I left the school one match with 4 kills, a kitted scar and armor and helmet one time. It helps you get not scared of combat imho.

I'm still convinced that there's no actual difference between the different loot areas in terms of probability for getting good drops for any individual spawn zone. It's just that places like the military base or school have so many more spawning points it makes it more likely to find good loot vs. a handful of barns in the middle of a field.

They need a kill cam to show where that secret hunter is.

Finally won my first duo match yesterday - me and my buddy bunkered down in a little crevice in the hills. Then suddenly a goddamn crate drops near us and the kills rack up. The only things inside were a 5x scope and some adrenaline.

Also I wish I was recording my SICK KILL -- someone shooting at me from those mini towers and I prone immediately, turn around and load up my 4x scoped WW2 sniper rifle - bam, got him in the head, dead. Lucky shot.

I've come out of the school several times with 3-4 kills and some solid gear. You just have to be ready to fight people for it, or at least be ready to run towards any fights so you can mop up the survivors while they loot.

Certainly makes for an entertaining start, even if leaving the place can be a bit of a poo poo.
