Lol that loving Mavericks game. Who looked at PUBG/Fortnite/BR games, and was like you know what this needs? 4x the players.

Groovelord Neato posted:it's that the game itself doesn't lend itself to esports/competitive gaming. the spectating issue is second to that. I think it could lend itself to the e-sports community. It just needs innovation and presentation. You would more likely be following one team instead of the whole server though, maybe until it gets down to a few teams. I would watch a fully polished team only camera. Hell, I pretty much already do when I watch Viss play. There are certainly ideas out there to make it fun to watch. The rendition they currently broadcast is trash and they miss all of the action, though. The game doesn't have the back end tools yet to make it pleasant to watch.

Communist Q posted:Lol that loving Mavericks game. Who looked at PUBG/Fortnite/BR games, and was like you know what this needs? 4x the players. It's the same sort of dumb thinking that leads to open world games being advertised with how big the map is -- the thinking stops at "numbers are bigger!!" and doesn't actually address whether the game is the better for it

Pubg esports should be handled more like a race series than a match between two single teams

I really enjoyed loading demo files into the game and replaying them, it was bandwidth efficient and cool. CS Source came out in 2004 but I was too busy being a grownup by then. (No longer!) blunt posted:8 just feels like about the biggest number you could conceivably go and still get a group of people communicating in discord and pulling off some fun plays. At 50 Vs 50 it's just turning into counterstrike on a giant map. Chivalry: Medieval Warfare is the closest thing I've played (I haven't played any Battlefield games). Enemy Territory pulled of 24 v 24 but there was no real coordinated teamplay. Anyway 50v50 PUBG would suck, as you said.

Guys, obviously the model for spectating this game was detailed in the documentary The Hunger Games, originally detailed by Suzanne Collins. All that's missing is the ability to drop health packs and scopes in airdrops close to your sponsored players. And World War 3.

Maybe that’s too expensive, but if you handled it like a live broadcast with multiple cameras it wouldn’t be nearly as horrible and add in second screen maps, bam you’ve got an interesting spectator sport. What could work is a 30 second delay time, where kills, close shots and good action are complied into a list so some auto cameras know where to go to get a good video, generate heat maps of where the action is, etc.

Bug Fixes - Fixed the issue where the player didn’t receive any damage after entering a vehicle from a prone position and then exiting while the vehicle was moving ... you've got maybe 36 hours left to exploit this and jump off motorbikes at full speed

Yeah real subtle. https://www.playbattlegrounds.com/news/129.pu e: vvvv Yeah I hope I'll get a final circle in that forest some day. I think snow might work just as well as desert, if they use apply wide-open spaces more sparingly than in Miramar. Ideally we'd get skis, snowmobiles and temporary snowfall too. Snowfall is poo poo for visibility, great cover! BTW I hope everyone's aware that snowmobiles are awesome and can run on open water: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6blzYt3JlUU Well, it can as long as you don't slow down... The sport is called Watercross and is big in the north of Sweden. Hippie Hedgehog fucked around with this message at 15:08 on Feb 21, 2018 |

Honestly I'm not sure how a snow map's supposed to work, it's going to have even less visual cover than Miramar since spotting people in the snow is super easy and no matter how many white clothes you wear your armor will still be black. There's so many good choices for a battle royale map: forests, jungle, urban environments... Have you ever been to the area north from Mansion? It's a really thick forest that looks amazing, I wish we'd get more of that.

Do people like the idea of snow because you can follow footprints? If that's the case then they are going to be disappointed.

My game plan of running in bigger and bigger circles so that anyone who looks in my directions' computer crashes due to the amount of footprints being rendered is out then?

Two questions: 1) Has anyone here ever been killed by someone who wasn't hacking? 2) Is there a cinematic or something that's supposed to play when you start the game? Whenever I click the icon, the screen goes black and I hear like, a very distant kind of sound but...it's so quiet it could be anything. The screen is black, and until I click the mouse button that takes me into the main menu, it just remains black. Also: Why can't footprints in snow be rendered just like bullet holes?

credburn posted:Also: Why can't footprints in snow be rendered just like bullet holes? For markings in snow to be worth a drat it needs to be permanently stored server-side so anyone travelling large distances don't see fresh snow in areas well-traveled. This is likely a huge overtaking.

If this new map were in a continuous state of snowing, that would make a good excuse to have footprints fade away.
