Going from a dude in underwear to a fully decked-out Mad Max villain with a cool facemask and trench coat with an army backpack and guns hanging everywhere never gets old, but in this category of game popularity, have never seen anything come close to being as janky, Bethesda games included. Wow. Right click the items on the ground. Drag the gun attachment to the inventory. You can also drag it to another gun in your inventory. Good if you (for example) only have one rifle compensator and you’re going from long distance to close range. Not sure if you can right-click on the gun attachment to remove it from the gun, that would be nice. Also if you only have one gun the attachment goes on you can safely right-click on the attachment and it goes on. You can do that even if there isn’t just one, but it might decide to put it on the wrong one. If you’re wondering why your rifle doesn’t have the red dot, it’s because it’s on your pistol.

Wow. Attachments don't take up inventory space when they're on a gun, so if you fill your inventory while one is on a gun, it won't fit back in your inventory when you take it off. That's why you have to drop it on the ground first. Why do you need/want ammo grouped with a gun in the inventory? You shouldn't be carrying around unequipped guns.

Slim Mat posted:Hey, thanks for the feedback. Was it the pseudo-commentating at the beginning you found helpful or just general comments throughout all the games? My original intent was to create somewhat compelling videos of whole matches because that's what I enjoy, but after reading your replies I realize that there isn't a whole lot out there on tactical play. You can find tutorials or tips on every aspect of the game, but learning to read the play and make the right moves is less accessible it seems. I think I might try some dedicated clips where I/we live comment on what we are doing and why. For me it's mostly just hearing thought processes as you go. It may be kinda weird but I really enjoy it when people doing videos basically just talk to themselves about what they're doing and why. Agreed on more narrative in gameplay videos - even when it comes to streamers who have a really strong stream presence and persona and stuff, I'd much rather hear them talk about what's going on around them and just hear their basic thought process than what amounts to color commentary. I can't think of anything in particular to cover, I mostly just like watching good players play and hearing them talk about what they're doing, myself.

I don't think video evidence is the same as anecdotal dog We had won a stack of games towards the end of last season and ended up rank 500 or something. Since the reset we've won a couple but it's just gotten progressively worse in the last week or so. I had even more clips but they didn't turn out as good as they got cut off so they appeared ambiguous. 7/8 of the last games I've played we've all died to hackers I wish it wasn't this way because goddamn do I love me some pubg but shits rough out there

John DiFool posted:Just saw a hacker in the test servers. Landed and then a guy with an AK gets 5+ headshot kills in a row, in the space of a few seconds. There is a thing where you wait on the plane until it kicks you out - along with all the afk players. If you're lucky you can pick up a gun and take them out before someone else does the same thing. He might have gotten lucky. I've seen it mostly on the Asian test server.

Are you guys for real The first one: the guy headshots me down - fair Headshots my squadmate, eh, fair probably headshots me on the stairs, then looks through the stairs at my other squadmate who had pulled a kobe - bullshit The second one, the guy is full auto spraying us near the bridge, all headshots, while he's up on the mountain. The last kill in that video he gets while on the back of a loving buggy coming down the mountain. Third one: Looks like speedhacking to me but it may just be some real bad server lag I'll admit Fourth one: I mean come on he drills me through a tiny gap then drills my squadmate and another guy in like the same second

abigserve posted:Are you guys for real You realise the first guy is playing 3PP as well, right? He sees your friend run up the stairs and does what he should; he looks up in such a way that he has the most cover, is able to keep an eye on you and can see your friend at the earliest opportunity. He obviously heard your friend pausing halfway up the stairs, too. Second guy: a good shot but the dude who got shot first was lying prone on a rooftop, hardly anything fishy there, and the rest of the video is unclear. He has an AWM so who knows, he might have a 15x too. At least those first two knocks would have been fairly simple if he did. Anyway, the most egregious poo poo that's supposed to have happened here isn't even in the video. (What I do find strange though is the bullets landing on the railing of the stairs without the windows breaking at 2:03, but I wouldn't know if that's cheats). Third one: actually seems fishy to me as I've never seen lag work like that, but even on NA I only get as high as 100ms. Might be lag, but it does look like speedhacks. Fourth clip: you had no vest and got 'terped. Your friend got shot when he jumped off a balcony towards your corpse. Those two kills were legit. Who knows what happened with the last guy, but "killed two guys in quick succession" definitely doesn't make for cheats.

In the first clip I thought the dude you were shooting at spun and insta headshot you because I didn't even notice his friend calmly step out from behind a tree and take his time to line up a headshot. That was seriously a completely clean and fair kill and you immediately call him a hacker Kinda throws your credibility under the bus Magres fucked around with this message at 23:21 on Dec 13, 2017 |

Tactics question: I have a really bad tendency to spoil good seeming ambushes. A couple games ago I snuck up on a firefight between two people, let one kill the other, and then waited around with a good shot on the body for the dude to come loot. He never did, so I tried to scoot around to get a flank on him and instead got jumped because he saw where I was going and set a good trap. I feel like he knew I was camping the drat body even though I never had line of sight to him the entire time he was actively fighting the other person, I just knew where he was based on his gunfire. Any advice on how to not have this consistently happen? I feel like I never actually get good ambushes, I just get caught in ambushes, despite trying to consistently play corners and look around with freelook in 3PP and check my back constantly in 1PP I feel like every time I try to emulate good ambush scenarios I see, people just refuse to put their foot in the bear trap. Both tactically and strategically - I'll drop Milbase, get out early, and camp the good bridge exit and see 0 people as blue circle closes, consistently. Just poo poo like that, every time I post up in a spot that's like "okay the plane was there, this is a good path to the new circle and I know there were just a dozen people in South George who will be coming around this mountain to get South" I see gently caress all.

Magres posted:Tactics question: The former situation is difficult to gauge as it varies wildly per situation (post some footage and I'm sure you'll get some good insight!) but camping the bridge isn't necessarily a great way to ambush, particularly in solos. The primary reason for that is that, in solos, those who survive the military base are generally stocked up on meds to the point where they don't need to (and in fact should not) cross the bridge before or as the circle closes, as campers will still be there. Are you leaving as the circle closes in, or are you staying put? The latter feels lovely to have to do - and it's a gamble you really shouldn't take - but I for one do make a point of crossing the bridge extra late if I dropped military base and need to head north.

That's a fair point. I've both left early and stayed, and now that I think about it I tend to catch more fish when I stay, if I can afford to. On the new map I hellcamped the bridge North out of the island because I knew it was literally the only available option for the survivors of that area and caught someone coming late because I decided to be stubborn about leaving and waited around and blew some meds to hunker down for a bit. I'll look into something for recording cause I'd love the feedback. I think my issue in the ambush I was talking about was that I got over eager for the kill and spoiled the surprise when I could have just hung out and waited for a better play. I've never been terribly good at being sneaky in basically anything, video games or IRL.

Honestly guys we play between 8-12pm most nights, AEST (GMT+10). You're both welcome to play with us anytime and get a feel for it yourself. We also play during the day on the weekends which might suit you better.

abigserve posted:I don't think video evidence is the same as anecdotal dog "Video evidence" from your perspective only is what anecdotal means. Regardless of the way you tell us the story (ms paint pics, interpretive dance, song) it's still anecdotal because it's based on the way you perceived the event. Like I said, I'm not seeing hackers every game, but that's also anecdotal because maybe they are getting taken out before I see them or I'm killing them. Maybe it has something to do with ranking, as you say you got quite highly placed, but that lends even more credibility to the others here saying that some of those vids just show you getting bested by other really good players. Watching you hose the staircase was pretty funny though

Like I said, I'm not seeing hackers every game, but that's also anecdotal because maybe they are getting taken out before I see them or I'm killing them. Well last season we hit 500 (https://pubgtracker.com/profile/pc/Spaghett69/duo?region=oc&season=2017-pre5), though our top ranked player was 250~ or something I think. Hackers were so much rarer it wasn't really a big deal. I think I've got like two clips of it and that's just because it was so obvious it was actually funny. Then the Chinese server thing happened, and now we're playing with a ton of people with Asian names, and the hacking is through the roof. If you're playing on OC and not seeing them I've gotta assume you're either so far back that they've jumped you and you're not matching against them, or you're not living long enough in the games to see em. I'm serious: play with us sometime, this really isn't anecdotal it's a loving epidemic. I've fought the number 1 duos, and number 1 squad player in direct combat twice and we died both times - neither was suss at all, they were just really good. There is a huge, extremely obvious difference between being killed by someone who is hacking and someone who is simply good. (also I hosed the wall on the off chance of daflicodariss when he came around the corner or to delay them long enough for the koooobe to land)

Saying someone is wallhacking or using ESP but not aimbot is a little absurd. It's impossible to know if they saw you a while ago and stalked you for a bit, or even just heard you, since footsteps are audible out to 44m and can pretty much pinpoint you. I mean, there was an AUS goon in the BF1 thread who complained non-stop about cheaters, and would go in and record them in spectator mode and post videos in the thread. But it didn't really accomplish anything.

But it isn't like that anymore, it's really, truly, game-breaking-ly bad right now on OC. Also with walls there's a difference between "he knows I'm in the room" and "I can see his gun following my head while I'm totally out of sight". If you're on discord tonight I'll hit you up for some games. Also lol they didn't release, or have any plans to release, australian servers for the xbox version

My friend and I were on the 2nd floor of a house with him watching the stairs up. I was in a side room on my own, when suddenly a gentleman with a Chinese name appeared in the room with me and killed me. We try to give benefit of the doubt for some questionable kills, but when you're consistently being one-shotted by someone with a micro-uzi or ak at 100-ish meters, it starts to make the game un-fun.
