AnubisAnkh and I did a test to see if there's MMR right now. It's not a perfect test, but he's ranked 217K and I'm ranked, hilariously enough, 420. We joined squads solo with auto-matching off and ended up in the same game 5/5 times. Also, my KDR climbed from roughly 3 to 5 this season, which might lend even more credibility.

A friend and I decided to hot-drop at the school because we wanted to get another one of our friends in quickly after he joined while we were in the plane

so I nab an AR on the roof of the school and kill five people, but my teammate gets killed and I don't have a frag grenade to off myself, so I go looking to honorably lose a fight, but unlike the majority of other times I've played this game, I'm coming out on top of every 1v1 and 1v2

20 minutes and 12 kills later in a game I intentionally tried to lose, I get a chicken dinner.

I can finally say I won a match.



And it was a good one! I dropped military and took out two with iron sights m4 from about 150m away, hopped in a UAZ and drove all the way to the mansion area and just played that area of the map until the end circle was in the middle of a field. Last guy decided to just lay prone and try and spray nades at me. I finally spotted him for the chicken dinner.

Highlight of the match was someone ramping a UAZ on top of a roof just west of mansion, getting out and spraying down at me from the roof. He almost killed me.

Nov 2, 2010

god loving drat it, this is the one time I play without shadowplay enabled but I just had to loving share this and I'm buzzed on some good brandy:

Just got done playing a game where the circle first started closing in on the military base. Fortunately, I had opted to land here so when I hit the ground, I grabbed what I could, got one kill, and took a buggy south to those buildings in the middle of nowhere.

After looting the large, two-story building, some guy in another buggy decides he wants to drive directly in front of it before smashing into a rock and spinning his vehicle around like a top before resting right-side up on its tires. I open up on the guy with an M4 and manage to hit him at least four times as he struggles to get up to speed. He turns the corner, trying to get out of the way so I hop down off the balcony and start rushing him when the buggy comes to a stop and...he hopped out a split second too early and killed himself lmao

I take his poo poo, then get back in my buggy to leave as the circle is closing on the northeast side of the island and :wtc: another dude pops out from the southern-most building and tries to murder me with a mini14, I manage to hop back out of the buggy while it's moving, take no damage, and peak around one of the concrete walls and this guy just gets loving destroyed, I kinda felt bad for his ragdoll

I take his poo poo, and now I'm finally back in my buggy so I figure, you know what, gently caress it, I'll take the road around to the city in the east so I don't have to gently caress around with getting picked off if I run into the walls of the military base because I'm a babby who can't drive properly, so I start driving northeast. A-loving-nother duder just pops out from the tree line and I'm already moving too fast to stop, so I just veer into him and splatter his loving head across the front of the buggy (first vehicle kill in a long time too) hahaha. I take his poo poo too and his :krad: dacia, bet his dad let him borrow it for the weekend, peace out dude :rip:

Now I'm running out of time because the circle keeps closing in on the buildings west of the northeastern bridge, so I'll keep to my plan. I get to the ridge and accidentally flip the car over in spectacular fashion, like spinning on the front bumper at mach speed before it finally lands upside down style poo poo, and some dude near the radar tower or whatever the gently caress overlooks the military base is trying to pick me off with a silenced rifle

I throw caution to the wind and just start booking it down the main road directly toward the bridge and holy poo poo, what is that up ahead, a loving jeep??? I just keep going and going, just laughing the whole fuckin way, like there is no way I'm gonna just run out in the open with no cover for this long without being domed, no loving way, these schmucks

sure enough I'm about to jump in the jeep when I spot a guy just bunny hoppin all over the place and spinning in the field to the north, so I try to aerate his head but I whiff like an entire mini14 clip and then I remember like a dummy I had a silencer for my m4. I take a few more shots and miss before a guy on a motorcycle comes flying by from behind and at least three people on the ridge to the south start opening up. I panic, still laughing, and leap in the jeep and take off west as my car takes all kinds of bullets and then veer north to try to get to those two tiny rear end buildings on the northern coast. The entire time I'm going through the woods there's at least 25+ people left and it's loving chaos everywhere suddenly, I'm getting shot, my car is getting hosed up, grenades are going off, firefights everywhere, it's like I drove out of PUBG and into a god drat Battlefield match

I finally get to the two buildings and there are already two guys fighting and the dude on the motorcycle is just riding around the buildings in circles. I try to take down one guy before another pops out of a door and destroys us both like a loving armed Kramer

he slowly comes out, goes prone to loot our bodies, and the guy on the motorcycle somehow ramps off of something and lands into the prone guy, killing him, but is already going too fast and he hits the building and dies and I'm just about in hysterics at that point

Our squad killed a hacker yesterday for a chicken dinner, was a great feeling. I spotted him running out in the blue, took a couple of shots at him (very small circle) but it was long distance. He finishes running into the circle then crouches and sprays my head full auto with an M4, as I go down he's still hitting the spot where my head was perfectly in the wall behind me so there was no doubt he was full hacking. About 10 left at this point, I bleed out and my 3 squaddies are in the house next to me. We all bunker down and watch this guy headshot 4/5 of the other players in the game, leaving just one other guy up the hill. We all have to move out of the house, but luckily he's still out of LoS, so we send a sweet boy as a noble sacrifice, hacker pops out from around the corner, headshots our boy down, but the other two flick him while he's doing that with UMP fire before he has the chance to turn.

The last guy dies in the blue, easy skins easy life

Whatever hack they are using seems to fire an additional couple of shots where you just were after you go down. If your back is against a wall this will manifest as a slew of bullets all hitting the exact same spot (pixel?) of the wall behind you.

Lex Neville
Apr 15, 2009
That seems like a stretch, tbh. Never heard of it and I don't really see a purpose (other than to make sure they did hit you? A hack already guarantees that). A target is also never going to be in the same place after going DBNO so it's a dumb play in general, let alone incorporating it into cheats.

LIKE A FOX
it happens whether you're alive or down. I've had it happen to me a few times. just full auto AR from very far away, 100% accurately hitting a spot on a wall that your head is behind. it tracks you if you move. so they're basically just spamming shots at your head so you instantly die if you move out of cover.

What's weird is the guys that obviously toggle on, I always thought that was a myth but no it's alive and well. We downed some guy who was assaulting our house in squads, and we had a really good fight going, one of his mates gets him up aaaand next thing he's speeding around at like 10x movement speed poppin off headshots

how insecure do you have to be to do poo poo like that honestly

All the videos ive seen from the hacker perspective, they lose their auto lock when someone is downed, i assume it's intentional by the coders so you can just flick through a whole squad.

Toggling is very real in FPS games and is done for several reason. In CS:GO it could be to make it more difficult for people to spot you are cheating, to turn the game if you are losing or to out cheat a cheater (sometimes the 2nd guy doesn't even cheat but since they generally suck without cheats they can't understand how somebody is just good at the game).
In PUBG I have heard of people toggling speed hacks to loot fast and stuff like that.

I was just reading this article and thinking how great this is going to be for the game, even if this is real game footage and not just an ad with "enhancments" for Pubg.

http://shanghaiist.com/2017/11/24/tencent-pubg.php

With Tencent publishing Pubg in China, it follows that they will take the usual steps of blocking the Chinese from playing on tencent servers. That should do a lot to reduce the amount of hackers we see on the NA server.

I love how when the guys shoots out one light, the whole building goes dark.

Edit: I don't get it, if Tencent had an almost finished PUBG clone on the way out, why did they just buy a 5% stake in Bluehole? I could see why, if this was just a re-brand of PUBG with added "socialism", but that's clearly not the same game mechanics and I don't recognize many assets.

I could be very wrong on this but I was thinking they are the same game with the video being enhanced for advertising purposes.

Bullets aren’t hitscan, so by the time you go down there are others in the air.
