Super-Duper Supermen!
Had an excellent game where my squad and I posted up in a house smack dab in the middle of the final two zones.

Having to defend the house from five different squads and getting that sweet chicken dinner is probably going to be my PUBG hilight for a very long time.

Housecampers are trash.

The only exception is the little compound northeast of the big blue warehouse south of Yasnaya. That compound is the single most defendable place in the entire game and god bless it's little heart

Assuming you have an AR and maybe a 2x scope, at what range do you usually decide to commit against an opponent?

I have this happen a lot where I’ll see a guy running at 75-200m. I’ll take a few shots and usually score a couple of hits before they find cover.

At this point I’ve given myself away and subsequently get murdered by a third party who I’ve alerted to my presence.

How is make chicken?

i've had a bunch of games lately where plane started over power plant and nobody dropped there or substation and it's loving bizarre. substation is one of the best loot density places there is.

Man, I cannot get this loving game to run.




Not indicated is that I'm running a Geforce GTX 1050ti. Yet it just hangs right after the publisher logo disappears?! Is it because PUBG hates my AMD cpu?

I'm already planning to get myself an SSD (and upgrade my OS to WIN10) but I can't believe how much upgrading it takes to get this game to run.

Like when I'm finally done with all this, I'm just going to crank everything down to low. It's frustrating to know it demands so much.

It's the SSD. That's literally it. OS doesn't matter. I still use Win7.

i've seen a weird thing a couple times when watching death cams. it'll show my reaction as a second or so slower than it was in the actual fight.
In the fight you described was he on the move while you were waiting for him to come around the corner? If so the netcode favours him:
  • From your perspective: before you can start shooting at him, you have to wait until the server updates you with his position as within your view
  • From his perspective: he runs around the corner, and, because you aren't been moving, he can see and shoot you before even the server (let alone you) has his updated position as within your view
I realised this after watching a similar replay where I died (in my case it never recorded the shots I made because I was already dead), and since then I've been a bit more aggressive in indoor combat - for example, if someone enters the building I'm looting I will wait until I know they are close then rush them, this seems to work much better than camping a room with cross-hairs on the door.

yup exactly what happened. he had killed my teammate so i knew where he was (and could hear him) and was waiting for him to come into view.

Some of those are pretty hilarious screwups where you somehow aim everywhere but at the enemy but some of them look like good shots that somehow didn't kill them. In particular the SCAR spray 2 minutes in looks on point and I dunno how the other guy wasn't dead.

You can get away with skyhigh DPI but you have to be used to it.

It's set to 400 dpi, 50% in game, 6 out of 11 in windows, mouse pad is giant.

Streamers use 400 dpi is for streaming reasons, and nothing to do with gameplay (I think)

Anyone who uses low DPI is doing it for some kind of gameplay reason because it makes you require bigger movements to aim. progamers use full arm motion to whip their mouse around but i dont have the desk space for that

Shotguns are something you use for the quarter minute after a drop until you find an Uzi.

Shotguns are fantastic because my first modern FPS was Left 4 Dead. I can't hold on a target but I can twitch like crazy at close quarters.

Shotguns are great if your aim doesn't suck and you've got low ping. Shotguns on high ping are terrible.

You probably do. This isn't CS, you can have a high sensitivity when you walk around and still use a much lower one when you aim down sights.

There's no excuse for high sensitivity :colbert:

I liked shotguns until I read about the way PUBG determines shotgun damage. But I still use them and get kills with them. I got my first sawed off kill on triple islands yesterday while landing warehouses.

Then you have a responsibility that no man has ever faced. You have your fear which could become reality, and you have Godzilla, which is reality.


Third person works fine if you want to play a worse game instead of a broken game.

What great devs.
