If all you want to do is get top 10s while AFK then yeah you can prone on the edge of every circle until you die and that will guaranteed get your rank from a % to a flat number.

I must say, since I have started playing FPP I have been having better luck (I am terrible at the game still) but I have found that camping is less effective in FPP compared to in TPP.

Years and years and years of playing counter-strike (sound). Also, always be aware of your surroundings, enemies are going to be in cover at rocks and trees. Try and remember where those are so you can zoom into those areas when you hear fire coming from that general direction. Notice in that kar98 clip, the first thing I zoomed into was that rock, and he was just to the right of it. I scoped the rock a few seconds earlier, so I knew potentially an enemy could be around there.

Sound, followed by predicting where people would be and then process of elimination. You hear the snap/whiz of the bullet, keep moving so you don’t get hit but remember where you just were. You hear the report, so you look that direction if they’re not just standing out in the open, eliminate the angles from where they couldn’t have shot you from. Start checking the obvious places like windows and roofs, then rocks and trees or good ridges. If you still don’t see them, go back to where you originally got shot at but keep moving back and forth to draw out more shots.

I love watching my replays because I'll be all "poo poo I can't see where that's coming from" and then flail wildly and get shot to death, and then on the replay I can see the enemy plain as day. I am really bad at spotting people in the heat of the moment.

Also if the boat/ski doesnt spawn you can swim pretty easily, although it takes a couple minutes. I've never died to the blue landing there. Went back to them today, and meh. I was lucky, the islands were in the first circle. This is the result of looting the entire north island which I had to myself. Note the lack of lv3 gear, no SR and not much meds. Found two ARs, kept this one. I maintain the islands have the same level loot as the other towns.

I'm glad that I can tell that I'm getting better at this game. I'm getting more kills and surviving more fights that turn into draws. I can also tell upon replay what would've been the best action (e.g. "there was no reason to engage, you should've watched for a sec and then taken out anyone left with your shiny new suppressed AR") and hopefully incorporate that into future engagements. Still no chicken dinners, but I'm getting better.

Yea my buddy and I started doing a lot better once we were more aggressive and stopped avoiding every fight. Especially if you hear the sound of two teams fighting and they are close by. You can usually swing in and mop up the winner.

Any chance we could get these added to the OP? I see people posting about range finding and bullet drop on a regular basis. Rangefinding with the 8x scope  Rangefinding with 4x sniper scope    Aim points are out of date, but range points are relevant.How to hit moving targets Part of this is out of date at greater than 300m. tldr; aim one body length per 100m.

Thanks for the tip, I will definitely do that, but like, I mean when I went back to watch the replay from my 3 on 1 the other day, I totally missed the guy closest to me on the left when I was scanning for the other targets. Like I knocked his friend and from his death cam he was literally standing next to me. When I watched my replay I saw the movement to my left that should have been a giveaway but I was too focused on the guys to my right and directly in front of me. I should probably play on a ten inch monitor or something, not that seeing him would have even helped in that scenario, I was probably hosed no matter what unless I had started spamming nades and got really lucky.

Also other than that is it still preferable to keep your game looking like butt to be competitive? I am just gonna say gently caress that at this point because as long as I get more than 60 fps I am tired of my game looking like dogshit. I doubt at my skill level a couple settings here and there are really improving my game that much (other than the muzzle flash thing).

I think Anti-Aliasing being off is the main thing you still want turned down to be competitive, so it doesn't smooth out pixels of people hiding in bushes (though they're still a bastard to spot).

Landed in a stupid spot but was really lucky with circle RNG and enemy movement. The single compound left in the circle was uncontested with 12 players left alive - everyone else must have been morons I guess? Or just enjoy hiding in bushes? Only one guy tried to rush my position (out of the blue, and easy kill), and then it was 1v1. Also, I hate the guy who had shot out a wheel on every vehicle he passed. Don't be that guy. (I am usually that guy, so I guess I had it coming.)

I rely on sound a lot, then scanning the area it's coming from. Usually if there's something to hide behind, they're behind it. But I haven't had any issues spotting specs running around on a hillside way the gently caress away unscoped. Shooting at 'em when you don't have optics can be a bitch, but it's not impossible. I think my monitor is like 22"? e: like tbh I have a much better time scanning for enemies unscoped than scoped. I can see so much more of the field or hill or house they're on.

Twice yesterday I was killed by players using obvious aim-bots and maphacks. The second of the two was dead obvious after spectating the cheater for the final 10 minutes of the match. He knew where everyone was despite never having line of site, and he auto-headshotted multiple people (including me) without bothering to ADS. Occasionally he fired shots directly at walls that had people behind them (again, he never had line of site). Is there any point in grabbing video footage of this and submitting it to the devs for a potential ban? I get the feeling it probably won't result in anything. I'm mainly salty because I made it to the top 3 and was having a nice round prior to that. This kind of sucks. Whenever I see someone getting repeated headshots with an SKS in the killfeed, I just assume they're cheating at this point. Is Battle Eye effectively worthless?

Drape Culture posted:24" 1080 LED, nothing incredibly fancy. Should be perfectly fine. I have the same size one and I consider myself pretty able to spot enemies on it - but then I'm constantly proven wrong on that point by getting killed a lot. I'm sure a higher rez could help but the kind of rig you need to drive it is more than I want to spend on shooting mans. Do you watch any good players on streams? If not, consider doing that - their movement patterns and the way they clear a building or ambush players could probably teach you a lot. One of the thread favorites, Chocotaco, is a nice chill dude with a tremendous ability to spot people. Pay close attention to how he enters and exits buildings, how he uses cover, what he hears, etc. Especially when playing duos, he's usually pretty good at stating what cues he is hearing, and he pick them up long before I do. He probably has sound turned up real high. https://www.twitch.tv/chocotaco/ A question of my own, how the heck do I avoid shooting windowsills like I did here? It looks to me like the bullets are registering way too low. I should have hit him with the first SCAR-L spray. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwqrRpriU4s&t=252s Edit: vvvvv By "collateral" we usually mean "someone killed incidentally, a necessary sacrifice". Did you mean "concurrently"? Yes, it's possible but shouldn't you see something relevant in the kill cam? Hippie Hedgehog fucked around with this message at 23:54 on Jan 6, 2018 |
