Weirdly enough lvl 2 vests located close to eye level and looked at from the "waist end" have made me think "8x!!" for a moment before.

Also when a double-barreled shotgun spawns next to/on top of a revolver and you see the wooden gun along with some 7.62 and think "YAY a KAR98!". :psyduck:

Chocotaco solo drops at the shooting range in a squad game. Drops entire squad. Dude is just on another level, god drat.

Because I'd love to read some whiny comments.

Playing solo squad is the best for early fights because people in groups actually move around rather than seek out a bathroom to sit in as soon as they find themselves a rifle

Are you somehow unable to identify scopes by sight?

Yea I didn't want to bite but if someone can't ID different scopes with a cursory glance in a room ho boy. I feel like only the newest players are having those problems. I hope.

Just lol if you haven't memorized every buildings layout (also I'm oddly jealous I want a fresh map to explore)

Randomized buildings would be neato, not cobbling together buildings out of parts because I'm sure it would be janky and terrible, but being able to drop into pochinki and have it be different every time would be loving cool as poo poo.

^^ Please send feedback to beefstache911@hotmail.com, this is not a joke that 'stache is the real deal. Serious assessments only. ^^

There's only been a single instance in all my time playing this game where I thought someone might even be close to cheating. Still didn't report them. Mostly because I don't think I'm anything better than just above average at this game and watching good streamers like ChocoTaco has taught me that there really are people who can spin around to face a flanking threat and with unerring accuracy dump a mag into your face before you get even a couple single shots off.

Can't get no luck.

I've had a few times (again out of like 1500 games or something) where people have 100% definitely been cheating.

We're talking spinning around and instantly headshotting like 3-4 people one after another from far enough away that it's not just somebody who is good at the game.

Of course if somebody were just wallhacking then that'd be way more difficult to notice.

Playing solo in squad matches is the best because you can punch out like 15 AFKs. I wish I knew what my KDR in 1PP mode is, it has to be over 5 or 6 just based on the amount of AFKs I am killing. Like does a 20+ kill match even count if half the kills were on AFKs?

No, nor does your KDA. I don't really understand why people drop with the AFKs tbh; you know your KDA is a fluke and you generally start the game in a terrible location

Yeah I did one of these crazy 180 turns while being shot the other day with an m4. Just got lucky and hit the headshot. I'm sure it appeared I was cheating

Its fun. You are never the only person who drops with that plan so it either comes down to a fist fight in the field where the victor gets to punch out the AFKs or a mad rush for a gun at the group of buildings closest to the AFKs. Just usual PUBG stuff. I just want to have fun and do silly things.

It's fun once or twice but then you realize dropping on good locations and killing non afk people and getting good loot is Really Fun, not being stuck in the middle of nowhere

Yesterday my entire group was downed by full auto headshots from a single guy the instant anyone had line of sight of him, one getting headshot by a kar98 while the guy was in the middle of the changing weapons animation, was the first instance of someone using a aimbot I saw in the game.

I mix it up, Its not like im jumping out with the AFKs every game. Its just a fun change of pace. Also what do you think happens after I kill the AFKs? I go on to win the game. I mean its not the smart thing to do if you are playing to win but if that was the case, I would choose the least fun way of possible to win. Its trivial getting in the top 5 every game so I like to mix it up and do silly things.

Yea man, I get so bored getting first through fifth every game killing real people that I decide to mix it up and punch people not responding in the middle of nowhere and then run for five minutes to a single house for a p92. Geared

Yea baby you know it. And lol if you cant find a vehicle on the drop down and then drive off to better looting places. Sometimes I play normally, sometimes I drop at the school and kill like 10 dudes, some games I punch out the AFKs, its all about mixing it up and having fun.

I am a simple person, I see people and I try to punch them out. The best part is that you can then go on to loot 10 first aid kits and get in the top 5 just by healing through the circle. The ultimate in lame strats right here.

Is it just me, or are stun grenades somewhat bugged? Three clips of mine: https://youtu.be/W4P5tPqT-iI

The first two are more recent FPP games of mine, and the third is an older 3rd person game.

In the first clip I suppose it's possible that it landed behind the small box, but I want to say that it landed right next to the guy unobstructed. In the second clip, the other guy's nade totally should have worked on me :shrug:

I have always had mixed results with stun grenades. Sometimes I feel like it blinds the enemey for 5 seconds and other times, it has no effect. I think if it lands too close ,its like outside of their viewing angle and they don't get hit. Also they get blocked by even tiny pieces of the world geometrym like a table leg or chair. I am probably wrong and almost certainly stupid though. Doesn't stop me from using them all the time because they are really effective.
