I embarrassed myself in a chocoTaco custom game by forgetting to take off my vest for a pan fight.

i embarassed myself in chocotaco customs by getting headshot jumping, by getting owned by a pan fight betrayal, by disconnecting from the server for 12 seconds and running into the blue, and by dying instantly when my boat slid backwards since it put me directly on top of the boat when I got out.

Ok I legit just watched someone on Sanhok stay in his parachute for about 4 minutes until the first airdrop and then just casually landed on top of it. Pretty hilarious actually.

Bluezone changes on Erangel are being revisited after 14 months (finally). Also some crazy different visual updates for Erangel. Brendan Greene was the worst.

It's super dumb, but I can't stop myself. This is just kind of how I do things.
I saw it suggested that they do an event mode in which they bring back all the old bugs. Imagine, you could be playing with parachutes that may or may not open, cars that flip into space and explode, and guns that randomly disappear! Or you could step into a corner and die to falling! Who knows? We don't!

That's just the regular, current PUBG experience though? I've only been playing a few games a week, and I've had a parachute that stopped midair and flung me, I landed on a roof at Paradise and instantly died to falling, and floating guns still show up. Plus vehicles still randomly murder you for daring to ride them.

Parachutes used to just never even open at times. And I mean things like oh look I have no gun and can't shoot even though I have it in my inventory, so you have to drop it and pick it back up, as well as the flight to space with vehicles that doesn't happen nearly as often anymore. As much as we like to complain about pubg, they've fixed tons and tons of the jank that it used to have.

FWIW, I haven't had a buggy chute or a malfunctioning vehicle in months. Floating guns show up rarely, that does still annoy me. Terribly distracting in a firefight.

I still get the bug where rarely, when you're dropping an item for someone to take, it'll clip into the ground some and still be visible but can't ever be interacted with again, which can really suck if you're giving someone something nice. Really frustrating sometimes.

And if "Hellsau" is the in-game name you haven't played a game in 4 months :shrug:

But yea, none of those bugs really happen. And they sure as hell aren't happening in the "few games a week" that you play. The game is in a good state for the people who enjoy it and it's only gotten better since Brendan Greene left.

They do need to re-work nades, though. :D

My favorite bug was when you could drop an item and pick it up, and the smoke from smoke grenades would just disappear. That one was real bizarre.

And yeah the desync is way way way better than it used to be. I've just been playing chocoTaco's custom games, and the custom servers are often bad, but even when they're bad they're not as bad as they were in regular games like a year and a half ago.

I play in chocoTaco's custom games and that's it. I would be constantly tilted by the nonsense, like how is the vehicles running away bug still in the game? They'll roll down, keep going, and then go slightly uphill and still keep going and then eventually stop while on an incline, but if you try to intentionally roll a vehicle by hopping out without braking all the way, the vehicle will just stay still.

Also I watched my partner get into a pan fight with some guy and it was amazing, because both players pans were clearly intersecting each other's player models repeatedly for like two and a half minutes, and no one took damage, because the server was nonfunctional.

I still put in a ton of time into this game and never run into things that you run into. Vehicles running away isn't a "bug." If you don't full stop your car, something is going to happen to it. Also, your friends were probably missing.

The game is the same as it has been for months and months now (it's good and fun!), sometimes desync does still happen which is by far the most annoying part of the game. Gunplay is still amazing. New Erangel looks really promising and I hope they do the same to Miramar after this.

Dude, they made it like that a few patches ago. Try holding the handbreak when you exit, it works like a charm. I spotted that in the patch notes, else I would be as annoyed as you are.

Except you cannot reliably force the car to roll - if you drive, let go of the accelerator to slow down to ~15 kmph and hop out, your car will just stop even on a downhill slope some percentage of the time. If you're trying to roll the car intentionally, you can't really do it without an uncomfortable risk of failure.

Also why are you so worried about gently rolling cars into specific spots, what on Earth. Just slam that thing sideways into a compound and start shooting bad guys.
