Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

Definitely bullet drop imo. The real vss does not use standard 9mm rounds, instead using the same ammunition as the real groza. It has a 300m/s muzzle velocity and 400m range. In PUBG at 400m the round has probably dropped 20m, it's ridiculous. In the game I'm pretty sure the loving ump has less bullet drop.

Should there be a fourth bullet type

Videos of the wacky vehicle physics are one of the reasons the game got as popular as it is and should never be changed.

Like take grimmmz and then multiply it by 1.5

Is that driving a car over a buggy doesn't take the guy in the back of the buggies head off 😡

I like the total heel turn for Grimmz where he goes from cool and good at pubg with lots of neat GIFS and clips to being a whiny baby who can't handle the fact that maybe someone is gonna look at his stream when they see him in the killfeed.

Weapon performance is tied to gun not bullet.

Alternatively, make Nagant revolver and AKM do as much damage as Kar98.

if you have a high-end computer and deliberately avoid hiting other cars with your car it's very playable, though there are still some performance issues

Less than Arma more than counter strike. I'd put the jank level around Ghost Recons Wildlands, the core is very good but there are definitely some lovely bits. And occasionally the lovely bits are hilarious.

.45 lever action would be fun, if it did at least as much dmg as Tommy gun, preferrably more! Then someone would maybe probably actually use guns which shoot .45

This game has somehow been getting more and more buggy the past few days. It started with the game never loading the main menu properly, I had to hit 'cancel' and 'reconnect' to get it to work. Now I have to do it like 15 times. There's been shitloads of server issues recently too. But the most annoying thing is the controller prompts that are still showing up even no controller is plugged in. I could live with those, except now when I die in squad games there is no button for spectating other players and it has also somehow disabled the default buttons (pgup and pgdn) for changing players. How the gently caress does having controller prompts enabled disable ONLY those buttons?

A friend I play with has had the same spectator problem since this week's patch. He had to jump through some hoops to get his PS3 controller to work with his PC, so he doesn't want to remove all of that stuff, but now when he's the first to die in a Group game it's pretty brutal. Hopefully next week's patch will resolve most of this stuff (like the game no longer going to the 'READY' state, but going straight to 'MATCHING' and not being about to un-ready as a result without reloading the UI).

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.

Google Butt posted:

Close quarters combat is probably one of the jankier parts of the game. School is usually a death trap as well; you're better off going to Pochinki or Rozhok both for more interesting fights and for better loot density.

third person shooters are generally fine to use controllers for, especially if it's what you're more comfortable with.

i mean, probably get a better controller than a ps3 one, but i don't think using controllers in a vacuum is a huge deal.

Goons are changing the way children get an education in Haiti.

Edit - Oops, no they aren't. They donated to doobie instead.
I have a 37 year old friend that just started playing this. His only previous shooter experience were cod and battlefield console games. He's using a mouse and doing well and understands why this is better than a controller.
Sure a controller person might be able to do "fine," but because of my job I've acquired a disdain for people that refuse to adapt for the better because they are afraid of change.

True and though I generally agree that controllers are better for third person games, this is a third person shooter so your buddy is going against people with a massive comparative advantage to him.
