Anyone know if you can play mobile with a controller via BT? Might be better than the Xbox version.

as more and more "competent" (third person) players leave this game, it gets more and more fun for Cars Playing. here are some recent highlights

these guys took a car we wanted from our usual landing zone so we chased them across the map
bridges are for cars. its that simple
i don't think these guys were happy with the outcome of this
careful on those stairs
early game hijinks are special
more early game total nonsense
not sure how they let me pull this one off

watch them add those compounds, but not increase the total amount of loot on the map, so it takes 15 houses to find a gun

The small vocal part of the community that still keeps the game afloat on twitch has been so sad about this change. I'm sad too. Just 1.2x the loot and maybe add some buildings (or terrain) in like, 3 areas (east of quarry, northwest of farm, and northwest of yasnaya). Also dynamic bluezones. Also get rid of showing where the flares are on the map and maybe make them less common.

Nobody wanted them to add a fuckton of buildings.

There are such simple fixes to Erangel/Mirmar and they just don't seem to give any fucks. Vikendi loving sucks. It looks great, but it loving sucks. Especially with flare guns now. You have: A cave with drops, flare guns with drops, regular planes with drops, and world spawn lvl3 gear. The last 30 people all have level three gear in what they like to call "THE SMG MAP." Cool. They have absolutely no idea what they are doing (and probably never did, they lucked into a pretty perfect map in Erangel and really, really good gun play).

Edit: And I get that maybe different playstyles on different maps can be cool, but they already segment their player base in way too many ways. Soon enough the queues will be non existent (and are already bad at non prime times). Segments: TPP/FPP --> Region --> Solo/Duo/Squad --> Map Selection --> Need for ~100 players. Sanhok seems to be the only map that is readily available at all times for all people. Surprise: It's because you can get looted up in under a minute. Sanhok is my third favorite map, but I love the loot (I just hate getting pinched/flanked by third parties constantly).

Yesterday Choco and Boom were playing duos on Vikendi. At the end of the game, one of them had M249/Mk14, one of them had an M249, they had left an AUG on the ground, and of the last three enemies one had a white ghillie and mk14, one had a brown ghillie and some weapon, and the brown ghillie guy got killed by someone with an AUG. It was insane and lol smg map, if they wanted an smg map they'd loving remove ARs and DMRs from Sahnok.

I always pass up anything bigger than a 4x on sanok, and always loot for ump or vector

So did they get banned on stream? That happened a few days ago to some other jackass. He got in two solo games in a row with Choco then the killfeed showed him as banned halfway through the second one.

No, chocoTaco quit after that game to go play Apex because PUBG was really rough for the whole day. It is neat that the stream snipers and hackers that showed up on Monday all got banned relatively quickly. Maybe they learned from the Weed Wizard days where they allowed a hacker to harass the #1 PUBG streamer for weeks without any visible interference.

No idea what happened to those two specific hackers, however I did snag this screenshot on Monday. It's likely these guys were banned for stream-sniping, since I believe it is a different message if it is for hacking.


I believe that somebody from PUBG (probably Hawkinz) was watching choco's stream and was just banning people when they kept showing up on stream. I'm actually discussing with Hawkinz what can be done with certain stream snipers. Because we've figured out that one main stream-sniper has been buying PUBG on burner accounts, playing for one hour or so, then refunding the game. Only to do it again on a new account right after that.

It amazes me sometimes how much effort people will put in to trolling. I at least kinda get the cheat vendors who advertise their wares in their usernames, when they're showing up constantly in the kill feed of a popular streamer that probably drives sales, but the idea of constantly creating burner accounts and cycling money through them just to gently caress with people is somewhat mind boggling.
