laffo that shroud's team won 3/5 games with the top kill count in 2 yet still came in second. Dinners should be worth way more

Scoring should be based on two criteria: kills and sick jumps

Honestly just get the M249 in a squad game, have all your teammates swap to AKs and give you all the 556, and just spray 800 bullets in the general direction of an enemy squad. If you know know some guys are camping in a 2 story, just spray that house non-stop for three minutes and just scare the poo poo out of them.

Yea, 1 point per rank and zero kill points means the only thing that matters is average placement. It's like if you took the real PUBG leaderboards and decided that kills were worth far too much in overall ranking. Actually even the real leaderboards weight wins way higher than 2nd place.

Shroud's team had DOUBLE the kills of the 2nd highest kills team, on top of winning 3/5 of the games.

Yeah in the end though they took home the most money something like double what the first place team took, so I guess it didn't really matter.

Wait, your problem with this tournament was the scoring ?

I admit I only saw the last two games, but the camerawork was atrocious. The only thing that made it watchable was setting up multitwitch.tv to show my 4 favorites.

The main stream was totally worthless, but watching Chocotaco's stream it was fine. I assume people were just watching their favorite streamer and when they died either swapping to someone else or doing something else, since the main stream was basically worse than if they just had the map open the whole time.

What happens if you drown yourself in the waiting time for the match to start? I keep trying but I'm a slow loader and I've only managed to juuust run out of breath when the plane starts.

E: Or I guess kill yourself with fall damage too? That seems harder though.

So I have a very annoying bug where my PTT key is no longer working. It stopped in a game a week or so ago and it hasn't come good. I've tried resetting the key, mute un-mute, checked my .ini and everything is fine.

Open mic doesn't work either, I don't even get the tiny in game icon to show its working.

Any ideas?

Set the mic you use to default communications device, not just default (recording) device. That's been an issue for me before, hope it helps.

Occasionally yes. Without rhyme or known reason, this sometimes works. Go to discord settings/games, and delete the profile for PUBG. Launch the game, then in the same settings/games menu, enable to discord overlay.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't.

My hot key for recording 1-minute clips with nvidia broke. I have no idea why. The overlay for nvidia still pops up when I hit the hot key, but it won't record my clips anymore :(

Speaking of gun chat, what is the opinion on the M-16? I've been watching Choco favor it over the typical scar/M4 and he does so well, I'm wondering if I'm missing something or if I'm just complete rear end with burst mode.

It's an extremely good gun, but choco plays thousands of hours and has been able to get extremely good with it. It's a very difficult gun to become extremely good with, and spraying your m4/scar is much easier if you are a somewhat casual player.

Shroud, who also has thousands of hours in, prefers m4 by a ton.

Mine stays on now. Yeah, in settings games, enable it and then make sure it's enabled in overlay.

When I watched choco several months ago, I’m pretty sure m16 was his least favorite AR.

Apparently the first 2 bursts have next to no horizontal recoil, so if you can pull down correctly, it's a laser beam.

If you're playing as close to perfectly as possible, the M16 on burst is the best rifle since if you hit every shot you have the fastest time-to-kill. I am not a perfect player, in fact I am real bad, so I prefer the M4 or Scar.

I think I heard Shroud mention recently (was it on the tournament stream this week?) that he is at 1400 hours currently. That is a lot of pubg. I think that works out to ca 8 months of mon-fri 8h work days (someone check my math), which makes sense given how long the game has been available.

I think choco is at 2k+ hours. It's really the only game he streams (other than the very occasional cs:go or minecraft). Shroud jumps on other games a decent amount.

And yea I thought my butter comment was weird too after I posted it...smooth like butter... :shrug:

Edit: Viss (from TSM) has 2,600 hours on record :stare:

The M16 is also best if you're extremely bad, just like the AK, because you can just put it on burst and spray wildly and if you happen to get extremely lucky and headshot the enemy twice you kill them immediately and it doesn't matter how good your opponent was. It's probably better to try to improve but hey, better lucky than good.

I would probably find it more useful than many, seeing as I am colour blind, but this is an unfair advantage, so I'm not touching it. I'm assuming they are going to patch it out or at least change the brightness.
