So is there no aim penalty for being in mid-air / jumping or are these just favorable clips making it look easy?

The complete opposite, you can't ads and have the worst spread while in the air so most of those kills are dumb luck.

This year, by the foreign enterprises R & D operations "Playerunknown's Battlegrounds" (Chinese translation: "Jedi survival: Battle Royale") game in the overseas market quickly lead to market concerns, "Battle Royale" in one fell swoop become a hot topic in the game circle , Its bloody, violent content presentation and value orientation and other issues also led to social public opinion hot. China Audio and Video Publishing Association game publishing committee learned that the recent domestic game companies have a lot of attention and even started to develop such games. In this case, I deliberately to the national press and publication of the SARFT business department in charge of the game publishing management policy, hoping to provide a macro guide for domestic game companies, safe to carry out related business.

  It is reported that the head office business authorities have noted the "Jedi survival: Battle Royale" game and the type (play) game to keep a close watch. As the kind of game is not only a large number of bloody, violent content, and its similar to the ancient Roman bullfighting game experience and the concept of survival set off a serious deviation from our socialist core values ​​and the traditional Chinese culture and ethical norms, not Conducive to the physical and mental health of young consumers. In view of this, for the "Battle Royale" to encourage the killing, in particular, simply to kill the other players play the role of the game as a means to achieve the ultimate goal of the game, the General Office clearly held a negative attitude, will be difficult to obtain publishing license. To this end, I recommend the domestic game companies should not arrange R & D, the introduction of such games, do not advocate to test such a way to attract users. At the same time, gaming, live and other platforms should not be such games to provide publicity, promotion and other services.

You can get the same effect on basically any game that lets you edit config files, not that it makes it a not poo poo thing in the context of this game, but people should probably not freak out about it too much.

I’m surprisingly unworried about this considering how many actual cheaters with aimbot I’ve encountered lately. I mean, this is definitely advantageous but I imagine people using this will have trouble telling when an enemy is in cover or not.

Since hits are client side would the cover even block shots? Whenever I had that bug where stuff didn't render in I could shoot people behind cover most of the time.

Maybe. When I get the loading bug which makes all the buildings show up as lowres ghosts I can shoot through walls and also walk through walls to grab stuff inside during the 1-3 mins it takes for the game to unfuck itself.

Usually not unless they enable an actual cheat. If they are trying to shoot you and your hear the bullet hit the cover between you and the bullet whiz, it means they aren’t seeing the texture on their screen and probably seeing blood splatter but the server knows you aren’t being hit.

Are you sure that the object didn't load entirely? (As in, even you couldn't collide with it). If that's the case, it makes sense. Otherwise, it's possible for an object not to render but still be used for collision detection.

Seems like they're not so much banning PUBG but also trying to discourage, to some uncertain extent up to and including banning, the "R & D" of any game using the concept of battle royale

I had buildings gently caress up halfway through a game and was able to murder people through objects that should have been there, this is pretty different though and I can imagine hit detection working properly since it's a case of setting poo poo so low that objects don't render unless you're zoomed in on them rather than something that's causing buildings to not load at all, or causing buildings to be offset some amount.

I don't think the server does any "nah you aren't really being hit" outside of the anti-trade system. It would be good if it did because of poo poo like that clip of the guy going around the rock posted earlier.

Like actually MAD when I mention that I can't heard poo poo because of their loving loud-rear end background. What the gently caress? It's not that hard to just press a button when you want to talk.

I also encountered this with my play group. To a one they all use open mic. We have dumb friends.

How long ago was that? From what I've seen recently, you get the dual sounds when they most likely have the texture bug. Unfortunately, I don't have a clip or date when the last time that happened was.

Heres a clip from Sept 8 where a cheater wasn't able to shoot me through a wall:

And here's another clip from the same date where a cheater was able to. I'm not sure what the difference is, I'd just assume he enabled some other option.

I had a dude crouched outside of the south-central Polyana apartments shoot my teammates on the third floor of the building he was next to, and the second floor of the next building over before I was able to get up to them from the west and shot him from the wall. Shooting through walls is certainly happening in some way.

It's not dumb but not really optimal. If you're in it to clear out school, picking one of the second floor wings gives you more options. It's much safer to go down floors than up really, and specifically the furthest southwest room on the second floor is the safest spot in the whole building due to both accessibility in&out, and third person angles
