They actually nerfed the loot there recently.

Does the island even spawn weapons there when the game actually starts?

I can imagine it not being worth it though. There's no much ammo there, I don't think there's gear at all? I assume there's no boats

I'm glad you did the experiment though cause I wanted to know if it was even possible to go there once the game started

It spawned a lot of good loot until the last patch where they nerfed the loot and improved the loot at Kameshki instead.

I knew at the time that the loot on the starting island was nerfed, but I just wanted to do it once and only once just to see and we had a flight path that took us to that corner of the main island anyway. We only managed to get there because there was a boat, but we found a few pistols and shotguns. It was just something funny to do and we spent too long on the little island that we got hosed by the blue circle. It was funny, but I would never try to go there again.

For example...the clip at 2:24 - 3:03, what is noteworthy about it and why did I need to spend 30 seconds watching what should have been a 2 second clip of a bland kill?
That particular clip is part of the whole match that we dropped at Mylta Power and won (1:06 - 6:00). My intention is to make videos that have some sort of (albeit limited) narrative instead of just 5 second look-at-this clips. Obviously this is not for everyone and perhaps the "highlights" title is misleading.

I definitely want to cut it down for the next one, and I've been more conscious on not saving average clips so that I don't feel like I have to add them in.

If you want some look-at-this stuff, I recommend starting at 6:00:

There's no bullet penetration, right? So what's happening here - Lag, or my head isn't where I think it is? (If it's too quick to see the badguy is at the other end of the range right at the start and the two bulletholes that appear in the wall are his).

I've never been more disgusted than by hearing multiple people use the phrase, "Four Ecks". Perhaps you meant a four times magnification scope, or 4 times, the x doesn't make it sound cool.

The fact that everyone didn't rip apart whomever upon the first utterance means you couldn't have been playing with goons.

Everyone calls it a 4x. I"m more worried that you typed ecks instead of just ex. Lighten up Francis.

Pros don’t use pistols, except when they have to. You can carry two primaries, the only time you should use one is when you get unlucky in a house and that’s all you get.

I guess good players are better at handling spray than I am / have better aim than I do. Probably also why pros don't use the micro uzi.

I still aim with my wrist even at a lower sensitivity, it feels so weird moving my whole arm. So my sensitivity is still probably too high. :negative:

So what are the player numbers like between TPP and FPP? I usually prefer the latter but sometimes I like to bounce between them and I'm just curious if most players are on FPP

Just wanted to mention that I think I have proof that there is no matchmaking by skill in PUBG whatsoever. My proof is that I got matched with Shroud in Solo FPP. He killed me immediately.

My rating is something so bad that I'm probably going to never play this game again.
