Anyone else having issues with lag causing you to pause or get reset a few meters forward/back?

It’s gotten worse for me in the last few weeks. My machine is on WiFi since it’s a bit of a PITA to run cat5 to my office.

I haven't seen much of it since before 1.0.
You probably have a long ping time towards the server you're playing on, or a lot of packet loss. Check that you're on the correct region. If that checks out, use some ping tracker like for instance https://pubg.disquse.ru/ to see if your network is actually really laggy. If it is, try with a cable temporarily and see if it helps - if it doesn't, you don't even need to consider running cable properly. If cable helps, whelp, then you have lovely wifi and should do something about that.


You're playing on xbox? Or was your game just giving silly button hints for some reason?

If you have a controller plugged in it defaults to the controller button hints. No way to change it as far as I know.

Yep, I play Rocket League fairly often, and the Xbox controller tooltips don't bother me at all enough to disconnect it.

I used to play a ton of rocket league before I became crack-like addicted to PUBG, so I finally unplugged my controller .

Your brain making patterns where they don't exist. I just played two Miramar games where the circle ended up in the top right corner.

That said yeah, final circles tend to be near the middle of the map.

I've never had a final circle actually in Zharki itself or in Primorsk. Same for a Lipovka/Power Plant ending.

For Miramar that would be equivalent to (off the map eastwards) and the Prison itself. I've had endings on the Prison island but they were a kilometer east. The game weighs centerline heavily.

Actual Zharki circles are fantastic because there's a bunch of walls, houses and differing elevation in Zharki to provide a really fun, interactive endgame. Of course it's surrounded by utterly horrible locations for a final circle - the hills east are a nightmare, southeast has a big ol' wheat field, south is a forest, north is water, and west is somewhere literally no one has ever been.

i had one just south of that and we initially landed power plant lol.

i think my last chicken din din was in tpp and the circle was in the lipovka area and we were in that area pretty much from the start (prison-ish).

Dude, turn off ds4windows or the Steam drivers when playing Rocket League. It has native DS4 support and should be giving you the Sony prompts.

Since the leaderboard reset, I have a 4.5 K/D ratio! Well, with two games played, that's maybe not so impressive, but still.

Looks like the play time numbers are a little bit buggy for some players, though:

having a ssd is great and should improve performance for basically anything on it, but having said that, the posters itt telling people to get ssds are being somewhat facetious/hyperbolic. i have pubg loaded on an ssd and it still runs like dogshit

in 2018 you should've been using an ssd in general for years.

the issue i had with pubg months ago was i'd get a solid minute of lag when i landed and constant lag jitters. it wasn't something that happened for t he first few weeks of play either. so i'm thinking i got 50mbs i should be fine what's the issue. said gently caress it found out my building now has gigabit internet so i got that. in the interim come to find out the game is such a hog that it was because my system wasn't set to high performance and my nic wasn't getting full power during gameplay which i've literally never heard of before. probably the dumbest gaming related performance issue i've ever seen. but at least i got gigabit internet out of it.

I really wish our scope brightness settings were carried into the replay information, I hate having to watch myself play with the red dot sight turned all the way up


Dropped 14 frags in Pecado, still came second :negative: Replay here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/225285406

The xxGNOLLxxTV dude, only guy I really had to battle, was ranked 12th NA FPP at the time! Sadly he already deleted the VOD of his perspective. I stopped by his stream to rib him after and he was a good sport about it

goddammit i got lit up by a squad at a drop in my buggy, drove away, came back and sniped the guy going for it, then my buggy despawned somehow so i died to circle (but got to kill his ghillied buddy trying to run in). cool game.

edit: just got like two feet of air on the bike and it went end over end and killed me lmao

I do.

But the squad win I posted was pre-reset. My solo rating was around 100th for FPP NA solo at the time, though my FPP squads was only like top 5% or so.

When I worked at the video game store, 6th graders used to skip school to come play SFV5 when it had just dropped and was in our Demo Kiosk

We played them for their lunch money and took all of it :getin:

Edit: homeboy I dunked on in that video was ranked 12th NA FPP at the time, so that doesn't apply to me either 💅
