I'd like to see a fast game mode. Smaller map, more loot and a faster circle. Everyone drops from the same point at the same time, but you are higher up to get more distance if you want.

I just tried watching 2 different streams and it irrationally made me annoyed as hell that they didn't know what they were doing in-game. One was calling the blue 'the storm' and almost traded his helmet for a baseball hat.

Nah it sucks, peep the rage in here.

It has absolutely no aim assist (I guess because they want to do cross-platform) which means it's almost impossible to aim with a controller.
Then you add that it's super janky with way sub 30 fps and you have a real nice experience.

Literally every game I have played recently I've got to watch someone stand like five hundred meters away and take out my whole squad with mini Uzi (or some other weapon that obviously doesn't work at that range) with repeated, consistent headshots.

Good anti-cheat.

On the standard client, or test? My impression is that the cheat developers haven't caught up to the test server version yet.

That's a lot cheaper than a gaming PC - I don't think you can take it for granted that everyone has one. If you don't have a PC, your only options are this or playing with a controller,
a laughably awful idea.

I'm not sure if you can really compare purchasing a gamer pc to buying piece of overpriced 3rd party hardware that gives you a supremely unfair advantage against your fellow console players

Advantage or no, for me it'd be the difference between being able to play pubg vs not being able to play pubg at all if I didn't have a PC but somehow did have an xbox one. Obviously they should just add mouse/keyboard support to the base game so you don't have to buy some dumb hardware but that's not the world we live in. Using a stick to aim is a joke and those videos of people emptying multiple clips missing each other only hammer it home.

I think this is a pretty poor justification to buy and use something that's more or less the equivalent in terms of value and e-bushido to a 12 month subscription to aimjunkies

I borrowed a xim adapter back in the CoD:MW2 days on the 360 and compared to everyone else you might as well be running around with an aimbot, which really is kind of lovely and pretty much ruins everyone's experience except your own- i imagine it'll be even worse for a game like pubg that doesn't give you autoaim or other QoL console poo poo

I wish to use my position as a "mover and shaker", a titan of the internet if you will, to influence the pubg community into adopting this as a "community standard" and agitate for native kbm support in lieu of...this:

For some reason when given the choice between "allow everyone to use kb/m" and "force everyone to use gamepad" the console shooter community goes with the latter. The dumbest thing I've heard is claims that it shouldn't be officially allowed because it's currently considered cheating.

I think it's still janky. It at least gives you an idea of where the people are when they kill you. Maybe not exactly *how* they kill you, quite yet.

That's not what gaslighting means you hyperbolic dipshit.
If the Sony and Microsoft consoles executives somehow miraculously and impossibly decided that:

1. keyboard and mouse implementation, along with freely and completely bindable keys, is now mandatory or even backwards compatible for all games, implemented at the OS level
2. mods were supported on the condition that you couldn't play online with anyone other than players with an identical mod profile

My whole reason for owning a gaming computer would be cut by about 75%... not counting my standing library of Steam games of course.

Yep. But it would mean less thinking about hardware and upgrades and whatever.

And yes I know that building computers is piss easy and it's even fun to research and hunt down all the hardware you need and then build the thing, but still. Easier is easier, and with work and family taking more and more of my time, every bit helps. Even if it means sacrificing 45 antialiasing passes or 8k texture packs.

I'm enjoying my first prebuilt PC in forever from there - it's pretty nice. But that said, it was expensive compared to a console and some folks are probably gonna have a console for their kids to play on the couch or whatever while not having use for a personal gaming PC. I think they should get to play pubg also, and using a controller doesn't really reasonably constitute "playing pubg".
