I play EU FPP and the only fishy death I've had was this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcEjMSsiVRw

It's hard to believe he spotted us there, and he didn't even hold his breath. He hit my friend a couple of times and myself 3-4, downing me. The way his aim snaps between the two of us (and a third guy maybe?) seems off too, but it could just be replay hijinks.

Still, that's a single weird one in ~40 hours of play.

No es muy falso. I think he is legit. Tough to tell though due to the death cam being an especially janky mess in this instance.

On a different note. Any of you guys tried comparing full auto while holding your breath and without holding your breath. I feel like it might be easier to control if you don't hold your breath which seems crazy to be.

That squad is astoundingly awful.

Incidentally that's two separate squads. You got a finally killed notice on the first guy you downed when the third guy you killed (HONGJUNG919) kills gan459 to finish off that first squad.

Good soup!

Your whole Steam account does not get banned. Since it's not a VAC ban, you might not even have means to tell if any given player has been banned in PUBG.

I was wondering about that, I tried to add someone I matched with as a friend, but their username was nowhere in Steam, or in my recent players list. She had an Asian accent though so it made me think that China could access the game, but possibly not everyone who plays is playing through steam.
Is that right?
Is the only way to access the game is with a Steam Acct? (then VAC bans would be more of a deterrent)

Sure, just be sure you call out anyone who kills you for being a stream sniper and rant about how you're going to get them banned because you're a BIG TIME STREAMER.

What are some useful Chinese phrases I should know for this game?

My 2 friends and I who regularly squad together get a lot of Chinese randoms as our 4th and they actually play pretty decently, share equipment, and work as a team. I feel bad I can't talk to them. I only know "ni hao" and "xiu xiu."

How would I say "Guy! On the hill!" Or something in Chinese ?

Not sure if Steam is the only way to access the game, and Steam Community functionality is banned in China. Since you create player profiles separately from Steam, it is entirely possible that China had some PC bang style deal or something else in place, and that you are not able to look up on Steam someone using their in-game name. If it is Overwatch Korea early deal style affair then they indeed have very little deterrent from potential cheating. Otherwise, an account ban is an account ban, regardless of anticheat or distribution platforms. VAC bans on Steam are just an extra badge of shame, since they are forced to be visible to anyone on your profile page. Age and status, but not game, however.

one of my best runs so far included hiding under a bridge for 90% of the game and then dying as soon as I had to leave

the best are games where you spend the first 3 circles barely out running/running in the blue, then finally finding a bike and immediately killing yourself on it

In my last game I died because I forgot to stand up for sprinting from the blue. Was like 20 metres from the zone too.

That's what I thought, hence "mashing potatoes". Wasn't sure about it being two squads. Made sense given their behavior.

https://youtu.be/oz0kTiEdUVA

Finally got my first chicken dinner solo v. squads. Had 3-4 rounds where I finished #2 yesterday. Also my first Miramar chicken dinner solo, period.

Spent about 5 minutes playing cat and mouse with a squad. Killed 3. Fourth ran away. Had a care package drop on me - the first time I've successfully solo looted a drop. Mk.14 and 8x scope. First time using a Mk. 14. I was terrible with it.

All in all a good time was had. I love this game.

I guess your mouse sens is really low, so when you pick up your mouse and put it back down it looks like someone making quick movements with the right stick. also, a lot of your aiming looks to be done with WASD

both habits are good, honestly. I would have probably choked in that situation. the only suggestion I could make is maybe use a bigger mousepad so you don't have to pick up your mouse so much

That first one is really well played, especially that smooth jump up. Did you end up dying to the zone? The second has lovely spray control+transfer (although you did kinda let your friend die with that greedy first aid!). Nice clips.

Nice clips!

I had some trouble with my GeForce Experience settings, otherwise I would have treated you to a nice and quiet jetski tour around the islands east of Miramar, followed by a leap off the lighthouse cliff.

BTW, in case anyone's wondering, the loot up there is nothing special, same as the mainland.

I hope the three guys I left on the first island had a nice firefight before the last one died to the zone.

How would I say "Guy! On the hill!" Or something in Chinese ?
I've been casually trying to learn Mandarin but all the free programs insist I learn the writing first so I gave up for awhile.

Good first phrases
Directions
Object
Distance (simple)
Like "Enemy, East, Far/Hill"

My accents are inconsistent. Double check.
Basics
Thank you/ Xiè Xiè (Imagine Firefly "shee shee" )
Silent/Jì mò
North/ Běi
South/ Nán
West/ Xï
East/ Dōng
Enemy/ Yuän Jiä
Vehicle/ Chë
Health/ Xue
Near/ Jìn
Far/ Yuăn
Come/ Guo lai
Go/ qu
Together/yiqi?
Give me/Gei wo

gently caress/poo poo=Wo cao
gently caress your mother=Cao ni ma (cao means Bush and also gently caress or drat)

I'll kill you/ Da sei nei/da Si ne (Cantonese)
Amy from Futurama speaks Cantonese if you want to get an idea for insults.
"Aieyah! Junk nei, o da sei nei!" in Cantonese: "Good Grief, I hate you, I will beat you to death!"
"Fa te fung chi gu li da si ne!" Cantonese: "You better or I'll kill you!".
Cantonese and Mandarin are like French and English in Canada, many French understand English, but not as common the other way around.

Extras
Awesome, good/ Gei li
Sell, betray/ mai, keng die
Report/ Ju bao
Wait a sec/ Deng yixia
Help me for a bit/ Bang wo yixia
Bro/ Gë Men (not ironically frat bro, it means brother)
Tree/ mù
Rock/shí (that looks a lot like Xiè for thank you, can anyone help with this one?)
Ammo (huo) shows up as fire hot or urgent, so maybe I'll say "Gun Food" (qiäng shí)
