There are quite a few locations across the map that require directly parachuting to reach loot. There is a military style building seen on the south island and copy pasted around 2-3 other places that has a whole roof of loot that is only accessible via parachute.

This game needs giant novelty cannons than you can hop into and it shoots you up into the air and you can parachute back down somewhere. And you need to be able to shoot from the parachute too.

I haven't tried that specific spot but a lot of places you can jump and loot while in the air. Ruins has some spots that this works and some that it doesn't. Also use jumping vehicles to get to hard to reach places. I landed with a bike at the top of a giant tree in the southeast, didn't stay up there for too long but no one would ever have known :getin:

Everyone who says tommyguns are bad hasn't seen the magical unicorn scenario of two UAZs tearing rear end around the map with tommyguns roaring out of each :allears:

I think maybe a crate needs an extremely rare "live grenade" booby trap, because everyone loves RNG :v:

Fashionspeak: I avoid the padded jackets as much as possible. Unique clothing would be nice, maybe something related to stats achievements that can't be traded away, like a "get 100 #1 games, unlock the chicken costume". Nothing gets players to nope out of a fight like a car full of chickens in that instance, or maybe you want the challenge/accolade of being a chicken chaser.

They had big Zamak trucks in Arma 3 BR that would sometimes drop instead of crates. They'd usually have a high powered gun in it. It was very hard to pop their tires, shoot through the front because they were so high, and the back was completely covered. Really fun for getting roadkills with in the last few circles.

So, just now, my squad in two separate cars, probably 300ish meters apart, sniped simultaneously by a redzone. What are the odds?

I think each of the cars thought the other car got flipped or something at the same time, but nope... all four death messages: died to redzone

A bunch of stuff happens client side. The lag still exists, you just don't see it. Peeker's advantage for example is huge against you if you have super high latency.

I never played smash but I guess its the equivalent of slipping? Really wild luck I have one death in over 150 hours of playtime. Red zone to me just means "run like no one can hear you" reposition time

This game is a lot of fun! My favorite kills are when you find a pile of player crates on top of each other from people successively finding and killing a prone dude in the middle of looting the prior dudes body, and adding to that pile myself is always an honor. Spawning in your underwear and constructing an outfit on the fly is also the low key funniest part of the game.

Question: what's the deal with shooting out tires? They seem to take 3 bullets each when I try it but I stopped for a second once and someone shot out two of mine while I was looting a house (at least I capped him when he got curious and came looking for me)

man, three solo games in a row where i find AR suppressors for once but my price was finding zero scopes, even on other players, and then getting sniped in the top 10 by someone who i easily could've killed with a scope.

The worst is when you find all the supressors, scopes, all attachments, yet never find an AR. Your running around with your pistol like a big loot filled piņata

Also I had something strange happen to me today. I was driving a dacia at full clip through a field, when a motorcycle also going full blast came screaming across perpendicular to my path. Amazingly I smashed right into him (what are the odds?) yet instead of killing him it flipped my dacia while not even slowing him down, he just kept trucking like I was never there

All of those attachments only exist so you can hide them in a bush.

Also, don't ram anything with open wheels or you will probably go flying.

Alternatively, your giant spindly legs break on landing and you have to spend the rest of the game prone.

Anyone else run into this bug?I reloaded and my clip went to zero when I hit fire. I could have won that fight as I had no damage and he had been hit at least twice, maybe once in the head. Really annoying as it was the third to last circle, give or take a circle.

Pretty sure it's just you getting ahead of the frustrum culling. Same thing happens on the edges of the screen if you turn the camera really fast soon after the game starts. Game is optimized for ground combat, not so much for open sky.

Ain't that the truth. Once initiated an early game jousting match with a buggy (me in a dacia). I thought the dacia would be the superior vehicle but instead it turned in to Robot Wars where the buggy guy was one of the OP flip bots. I even ended up on the hood of the buggy once and he tried driving me into a river. The dacia was hilariously outmatched. Fun as hell though.

It looks to me like object occlusion having a bit of a fit?

It's a rendering trick that Unreal has used for a while: stuff 'behind' other stuff doesn't get rendered, in this case the airplane is hiding stuff behind it - and for some reason the engine is lagging behind in updating those areas when you turn your camera to see past the aircraft.
Looks like the terrain is being rendered in big chunks (as it always has been) hence the square-ish checkerboard pattern as those areas pop in and out of 'view'.

So yeah, engine bug probably nothing to do with your card.
