Ha the pan blocks arrows. Also good to know that a superman punch does more damage than a normal one.

the other thing that helps in melee is aiming up above your targets head.

Oh weird. That's also pretty hilarious.

I think what actually happens is that instead of it exploding in your pocket, when you prime a grenade and then switch weapons it just drops it underneath you. So, yeah, p funny and also funny that his video is all like "This bug needs to be fixed!" when its just like, once you light that molotov on fire you better throw it.

Well, after a riveting three minutes of laying motionless (apparently the circle stops shrinking once it hits its final size!) one of them gets bored and throws a smoke grenade to break up the monotony, which reminds my dumb rear end that I've got exactly two frag grenades in my inventory. Two beautiful prone lobs later I pick up my dumbest win ever:

if you wait long enough the circle will just disappear and blue will cover everything

Is anyone getting stuck at this poo poo when loading the game:

11:56:21: Starting BattlEye Service...

11:56:24: Note: File blocks can be ignored if they don't cause problems with the game.
11:56:24: [INFO] Blocked loading of file: "C:\Windows\System32\wininet.dll".

I tried uninstalling battleye(using the bat file in the PUBG folder), but that didn't seem to do anything.

Oh well, loving latest windows update seems to have broken all the things or something.

Flip your car inside the final circle area. After it ejects you, get back in. Nobody checks rolled cars for passengers.

Those fields aren't really flat, there are a bunch of bumps in them, at the very start of the video you can see the raised path that flipped my car.

Is there any way to reduce the possibility of crashing from Flash grenades? Does lowering effects or anything like that help?

a flashbang crashed me also, dunno how to fix it though. They really, really need to fix the crashing. Doing so twice in a row, right after restarting the game in an effort to keep it from crashing, made me quit playing out of frustration earlier today.

I like the SKS, but I probably prefer the m16 for medium/long rage sniping. For me the one I can't seem to hit poo poo with is the kar, miss all sorts of shots that I feel like are for sure hits.

This game is an unoptimized mess that suffers greatly from running a huge map with an immense drawing distance and a hundred players.

From the responses ITT it seems like everyone short of those having ultra high tier computers is experiencing flactuations in frame rate and moments of slide-show like performance. But really latency and desync is going to kill you a lot more often than frame drops so don't think about it too much, imo.

It seems like a crapshoot. Before the last patch I was running around 40-60 fps most of the time, now I get a steady 80-100 except when I'm waiting get on the plane.

God I love this game.

People who talk smack on open mic are funny. I had a dude in an upstairs of a two story telling me to come out blah blah, so over the open mic I told my teammate I was just going to wait down the stairs until the blue came and then he stopped camping the stairs and I went up and shot him in the back. People are dumb.
