I feel like there is a lot more bullshit going around with this newest patch. People lagging through door or walls and all sorts of mad headshots. I got hit once with an AK and got knocked down while wearing level 2 armor and hat and it said I got hit by a head shot, but my helmet was undamaged and still on my head.

Good soup! posted:Man I love coming within inches of getting a solo chicken dinner only for the game to lag the gently caress out at a crucial moment Kind of an old post to reply to but this isn't exactly lag and can be reproduced quite often. It's some kind of pathing/sync issue, it happens very frequently around corners, and in some cases trees/other players. The guy saying this is your internet connection is a retard hth

Apparently there's a bug where you can kill someone with squadmates still alive skipping straight past DBNO. https://streamable.com/93ohd

that kinda looks like the opposite, the dbno guys should have died when their last squad member was downed edit: that said, today i shot a guy who was the 2nd person in his duo and he went dbno for about 0.5 seconds and then died (because his squad mate was dead)

It finally happened. After a third place finish just a couple games earlier we made a call to play one more game for the night. Felt good man. Props to Inspector666 for being the last man standing after the firefight in the final circle (and getting to watch the final kill die to the blue wall)

we always play squad games 3-handed so we have a slight handicap but we've been chicken dinnering basically every night recently. pro strat is basically always drive to the center of the circle after picking up enough gear for fights, then find a big house (big enough to dodge grenades). nothing beats a house since it's extremely safe to revive people. since there's no real way to go ninja with a big group, positioning is everything. that's our take on it anyway. also, always land on those big apartments together so you don't have people randomly dying early on but still get enough loot for everyone.

I guessed I lucked out on NA tonight because I didn't have any noticeable lag. Even made second place in a solo and might have won if I'd stood up with a gun in my hands instead of nothing after throwing a flashbang. On second thought, I started playing while the flashbang was removed so I've never actually seen how (in)effective it is in this game. Maybe that was a dumb play anyhow.

Just had some VSS scope shots miss by about 5 feet right at 200 m. There isn't east-west wind considerations on sniping right? Just bullet drop?

The one useful thing about the VSS is the rangefinder on it actually works. Put the guy in the slopey bit, it tells you how many hundreds of meters away the dude is based on lining up his feet with the bottom and head with the top. Then switch to a good gun and zero it for that distance to take the shot.

NA server lag (I guess?) is bonkers right now. Anything that requires USE to do is a 50/50 crapshoot on whether your guy will do it or not. This update also changed the layout of the bunkers, there is a lot more cover on the long hallways now.

Lag/stuttering is hugely improved for me, but I ran into the DBNO bug a few times. I'm guessing that one will be fixed rather quickly.

funny Star Wars parody posted:Correct. Yeah I feel like I've given it a fair shot now, and it's just not very good. Tiny magazine, ridiculously slow bullets, crappy range and damage. The 4x and the best silencer in the game mean that it probably does have some situational uses, but in a straight up gunfight it's poop, and as a sniper it's poop. Maybe if you've got a really good hiding place in one of the final circles it can shine, but that magazine capacity even then...

I'm assuming it has the same damage as the UMP through the little bit of testing I've done with it. It's 5 hits on level 1 or 2 armor, 7 on level 3 and 6 hits on legs/arms to kill. It's just not worth the bad damage and bad capacity, combined with the slow reload time.

Static! posted:It has an extended mag tho? So you get up to 20, which means up to half of the UMP's max. It's a gun that requires volume to kill, 10 certainly doesn't cut it and 20 isn't amazing either. And again, the reload times are long.

Lag wasn't any different from normal after the update, well, until about half an hour ago. I got a minute of standing still in a field because it said my connection was poo poo and the game froze me, then it went back to the regular jank for me. Everyone else on the server seemed to have big problems with it. I came upon three separate people who looked like they lagged out, they were just sitting in a building or behind a rock and noisily I ran up to them with no response, even after shooting one of them they didn't react. The circle stopped contracting for a good five minutes until it started back up again.

The VSS is an extremely powerful early game/early mid game rifle that should be replaced once you find a rifle and optics, or a silenced UMP. It's a fairly niche gun that I can see getting a buff by the next patch.

Yeah I think it's under powered as well. The 9x39 bullets are massive and it could model one of the better types of rounds that have some penetration.

The bullet has twice the weight as a 9x19mm round, which should count for something. I mean if an SKS can do more damage than an AK for balance purposes, then the VSS should do more than than the UMP.

It should be doing .45 damage at the least.

You're always meant to be DBNO if squadmates are alive? I never knew that. I thought you could insta-die if the person shooting you landed a really damaging headshot or close-range shotgun blast to the abdomen. I've instantly died so many times and just thought it was normal.
