"remove the red zone" is on a sticky note on the back of the dartboard where it is safe from accidental glances

Why would anyone want that removed? They're incredibly easy to avoid, and if you die from it (like I have) it's because you're dumb enough to think you can avoid it because you're going too fast on a vehicle. Or you aren't paying attention until you hear the doom whistle right on top of you and it's already too late.

It's the worst RNG element of the entire game that can easily be gotten rid of by... just not having it. Sure, you can run to the nearest hut and sit inside of it for 30 seconds. But why....

It's a dumb feature and you're a dumb dumb for defending it, you dummy.

First off, drat good play with the smoke! Secondly the worst rng of the game is when you run into a town and it's full of nothing but gun parts some ammo and nothing else for at least a full circle.

How is it dumb when it's easily avoidable? For almost everyone it's practically a non factor, unless it spawns right on top of you. It so rarely kills anyone anymore that when it does it's HILARIOUS.

I got killed by a red zone while inside a building yesterday. Yes, an unavoidable RNG death that spawns right on top of me is an awesome feature.

So....were you like right near a window? Or a door? It's still pretty loving funny.

I think the point of the red zone is to keep you moving. But when all it takes is to hide in a building for a minute, it's pretty easy to dodge.

they should add per bullet clanking as players 350 5.56 and 250 7.62 rustle around in their backpack, maybe it would finally cut back on the loot goblinning

they'll add more realism by making you loot magazines, loot boxes of appropriate bullets for those magazines, put individual bullets in to fill the magazines, then find the appropriate gun for those magazines.

There are some goons that still play but not a lot of posting for squads in the discord. I play with a pretty set group of friends and never post on the discord for games.

Were you able to poop and take a spear and dip it in said poop to poison and make other players sick with infection? If so GOTY.

And yeah I play duos and squads mainly with friends a few nights out of the week. Usually TTP, duos for when we want to try and win, squads when we just want to have a good time gently caress around and somehow stumble onto a chicken dinner.

Thanks to the player who killed me and then told me my mic was hot.
gently caress you to Bluehole who keep resetting the mic setting to "open" with seemingly every patch.

Luckily I've had my mic disconnected until tonight, or these last 20 games or so would have gone even worse...

No, the setting for "Open" vs "Push to Talk" is hidden way over in Settings - > Audio somewhere.
I could play with voice on the wrong channel, or even muted (CTRL-T), but then I wouldn't hear teammates or other teams, so that kind of unhelpful.

That reminds me of a duo whose downed player kept talking about my location and started narrating what the other player should do at which point I'm like, thank you for the closed caption.
