SealHammer posted:except that it does??? High ping is never an advantage in CS:GO, neither when holding an angle NOR peeking. Even though while peeking with high ping it would seem that you get an advantage you don't due to the interpolation. You don't however get a disadvantage either. For example in an awp vs awp situation, If you didn't beat the other player it could still look like you got your shot off on you end but it won't register since you were already dead according to the server. There was a great video showing this but I can't seem to find it. However, I have no clue if PUBG's netcode allows for a high ping advantage when peeking.

Zo posted:it's not an advantage when peeking at a guy looking right at you, but if you catch somebody off guard, you get to put a couple more shots into them before they can react on your screen, and all those shots count even though they ran behind a wall after the first shot on their screen. that's pretty huge since it happens all the time in pubg. PUBG using client side hit detection probably makes this worse.

daslog posted:I've got the first 2 already covered, but I think the 3d printed arms might work. I tend to play very aggressive and that doesn't seem to work in PUBG and my parachutes were really bad last night. Aggressive is fine if you do it right, especially in very early game in high action areas. Get a gun -> shoot people. Parachuting well is entirely up to you. Fly straight first and then dive when you approx 300 m out and hope to achieve that magic number of 234km/h. Use the w wiggle for added precision after the chute has deployed. That said, your fps is pretty bad and is for sure making things more difficult. You had a new computer on the way? Otherwhise you can OC that 2500k to something like 4.3Ghz fairly easily.

22 Eargesplitten posted:God this arm aim poo poo sucks to get used to. Should I just gradually lower my sensitivity so it's not as sudden? I would honestly say to just go for it. Got a big rear end mousepad (approx. 18x18 inch)? If the answer is yes, then maybe you have to change your seating position. I have my arm positioned so my elbow is just off the edge of the table while the rest of my forearm is just resting on the table. You might have to raise or lower your chair so the position is neutral when you just lay your arm on the table. Try not to have your arms too far away to the side from you body and also try to have them more or less equidistant from your body so you are not sitting crooked. This could mean that your keyboard is slightly in the way if you have a huge one. If that is the case you can tilt it a bit like this https://i.imgur.com/ljmAkkR.jpg (don't pay any attention to this guys tiny mousepad). Also remember there is no one true best sensitivity so you might end up being comfortable with a slightly higher or lower sensitivity than a baseline of for example 50 in game, 6/11 windows, 400dpi. I'd say play a few games with a sense and adjust according to what feels comfortable to you. Don't be afraid of playing around with it slightly. Muscle memory is not that big of a factor in my opinion and especially not in a game like this where your fps isn't constant. It's a trade off of slightly more cumbersome looting for more accuracy and you have to find the right balance for you. Hulebr00670065006e fucked around with this message at 09:36 on Oct 13, 2017 |

Does it still open your mic with voice detection enabled instead of push to talk? I'd love to have it on during the game but gently caress having to change the setting every time I unmute after getting out of the plane.

Has anyone tried to use that banana program and comparing it to using the windows loudness equalization. Too me it looks like you can use it as a limiter that only caps the top end and leaves the low end alone. This would be different from the windows option which moves everything towards the middle. This could mean that your sound "depth perception" would be left intact and ambient should stay ambient, since it only compresses the sound over a certain threshold. But I'm no sound engineer so I could be wrong.

Also the blue circle will move you so fast at times that you will take damage from colliding into buildings and trees.  e: Would be funny how everyone scooped up on the far side of an eccentric closing circle would be pushed towards the furthest away point on the circle due to the difference in closing speed across the circle.

The Mash posted:My friends and I played a game yesterday that featured the luckiest circles I've ever had. We started in Yasnaya and the first circle was around Mylta/Prison, so Yasnaya was just about out. We got in a car and drove to the tiny compound with a blue house and a shed located just north-east of the big blue warehouse near Prison, and took up residence there. It's quite an easy place to hold, both in first and third person (this was FPP). It's got walls in appropriate heights on all four sides but with spaces to shoot out, and it has relatively clear view of incoming enemies from every angle. Bet you'd feel a lot worse if you hadn't won that though.

Xenaero posted:Are there some fog tricks? I think I was on the receiving end of something that let people see through fog clearer. I good fog tip is to try to avoid your silhouette being visible against the sky and try to be in spots where you in turn can spot the enemies silhouette against the sky. This means stay on low ground instead of high ground and at least move a bit down the front of a hill instead of peeking from behind it. You spot people at like 3 times the distance if you can see them against the sky vs you looking down in to a valley or something. About general visibility I'm not sure since I also suspect that my team mates might be able to see a bit better in the fog than me. Maybe turn the brightness down a bit since mine is generally very high and I suspect it might be the culprit. I haven't tested it yet though. Concerning SCAR vs M4. I'll take either but generally swap for the SCAR if possible since I feel like all the games where my spray has been godlike has been with the SCAR (I never tap with my close range gun at distance below approx. 75 m). This could of course very well be a case of confirmation bias, but if it gives me confidence due to that why not. Hulebr00670065006e fucked around with this message at 09:51 on Oct 25, 2017 |

Had a squad game yesterday where we trekked a fair bit off the plane route to loot in Novo. When we were done we moved to the circle north of the bridge but never heard or saw anyone and noticed that very few were left in the game relative to how far the round had progressed. When 6 where left (beside us) we spotted the first enemy who proceeded to kill the 3 of us in less than a second. That was a very boring game since the cheater had wiped almost everyone but us. Guess I will keep an eye on the killfeed so we can leave games like these before run around alone for 20 minutes.

I fear for the vaulting update. Of course the movement mechanics are pretty rough poo poo in certain areas at the moment but it gives a certain sense of you navigating the terrain, not just you skating across and up surfaces with a few animations covering the transitions which the vaulting might bring.

cosmicjim posted:The vast majority of people playing this don’t know what h1z1 is. I don’t. That doesn't necessarily invalidate his point though. Personally I would have zero interest in a BR game where the "gunplay" doesn't have significant depth and is a big part of the gameplay. However, I don't think that mil-sim-sperg necessarily is the only way to make interesting and difficult to master "gunplay" in a BR game. I believe a thing that is difficult to get right is the long range engagements that you get in a BR, where hitscan mechanics would be OP and unfun. Currently we introduce bullet travel and bullet drop (tried and true) to "nerf" the guns, which still leaves the them fun. That doesn't mean it is the only way though. We just have to think outside the box if we want an arcady version. Who says long range irl guns needs to play a big part and not, stealth, traps, melee, vehicles, defensive abilities, temporary powerups, different classes, whathaveya.

It sucks that not even 1% of the player base needs to cheat before it's a huge problem where a cheater will be in a majority of games (if we assume running in to a cheater is equally likely across all game modes, regions, etc.). Looking at CS:GO as a reference I believe that it is very likely that far more than 1% will eventually be (probably already are) cheaters.

Le0 posted:What is the culprit on my setup? GTX 970, Core i5, 16GB RAM game installed on SDD but I do not get optimal FPS. What does optimal FPS mean to you? My setup is very close to yours (depending on which i5 CPU) and my FPS is okay'ish (has dropped a bunch during the latest anti cheat update) and only under certain conditions drops below 60. I run texture and AA on ultra, draw on low. Everything else very low I believe. I play full screen. 1080p. Make sure your screen scale is at 100 exactly. If you have messed with the slider before check it in the .ini file since the slider doesn't show decimals. Make sure the .ini file has your native resolution as default. My Nvidia settings are Vsync off, optimized for single display, prefer max power, threaded optimization on, (1) max pre-rendered frames. I have turned steam overlay off in pubg Checked the "override high DPI scaling behaviour" in the .exe compatibility option. Make sure your RAM are on the XMP profile (done it bios). But yea, the game has been running worse and worse for me with every patch. Hulebr00670065006e fucked around with this message at 11:20 on Nov 23, 2017 |

abigserve posted:What's weird is the guys that obviously toggle on, I always thought that was a myth but no it's alive and well. We downed some guy who was assaulting our house in squads, and we had a really good fight going, one of his mates gets him up aaaand next thing he's speeding around at like 10x movement speed poppin off headshots Toggling is very real in FPS games and is done for several reason. In CS:GO it could be to make it more difficult for people to spot you are cheating, to turn the game if you are losing or to out cheat a cheater (sometimes the 2nd guy doesn't even cheat but since they generally suck without cheats they can't understand how somebody is just good at the game). In PUBG I have heard of people toggling speed hacks to loot fast and stuff like that.

I can't decide on the AK. One game it's the best non-crate full auto gun and the next I can't hit poo poo with it. It's also annoying having to carry around a lot of 7.62 unless your long range gun is also 7.62.

Anyone else having lovely luck with shotguns lately? Me and my buddy had a guy take 6 shots without dying. My buddy hit him once fairly close with the over under and I hit him the rest with the pump where two of the shot were lined up well. Most of my shots where from fairly far away (for a shotgun) but still it seemed ridiculous.

HardKase posted:Hey guys, how do i fix my potato aim? I am a terrible shot. I have lowered my sensitivity. Is it just a case of practice? I need to try and shoot more dudes? Lower it more! Make sure you don't have mouse acceleration on (enhanced pointer precision in windows). Shooting more dudes will for sure help in the long run. However, if I try and focus on improving a specific part of my aiming/gameplay each game, e.g. don't keep holding mouse1 if the spray isn't on point, I tend to improve faster. A few things that might help you shoot some dudes. - Crosshair position. Try to pre-aim where you think/know a dude is. This way you won't have to move your mouse so much when it's time to shoot. Get the crosshair up before it's time to shoot. - If you don't get a good engagement (crosshair right on the dude when you peek), disengage and try again if possible (this means you have to be in a position where this is possible, which is a tip in it self). - You don't have to commit to all fights. If you think you can disengage and fall back to a better position that can be a good option. - Don't keep holding M1 if you hosed up the spray. Let go and try again, even mid fight. - At long distances don't stand still too long if they are shooting back. Especially if they have a bolt action sniper. One shot->move a tiny bit/move behind cover->one shot. If you get a good engagement and can "out dps" him so to speak, by all means go for it though. Don't end up playing too passive though and at some point you have to commit to a fight if you want to win it. Hulebr00670065006e fucked around with this message at 10:36 on Dec 8, 2017 |

Hippie Hedgehog posted:Do people recommend lowering sensitivity from the default? Your sensitivity is already way lower than what the gen pub is using. I agree that being able to do a 180 without lifting the mouse is about right. However, most people would probably be able to do several spins without lifting, hence people recommending lowering your sensitivity.

What I'm saying is that your mouse seem to be 400 dpi default, while most people probably have it at 1600 or higher or the windows sens turned up, making the 50% in game a way higher sens that yours.

Dangerllama posted:Alright I bought it. Is there a discord thread I haven't found because I haven't looked for it? 2nd line of the OP buddy. Anyways for me the last big/huge hurdle before the game becomes officially great (although I already love it) is the netcode/tickrate/hitreg stuff. Right now it's simply sub par. 10-20 tick + general jankiness must not be acceptable for blueballs and I hope that they are working on it (they most likely are). The huge interest in the game and them having to play catch up with the servers can't have been easy either. New vehicle physics are great. Just did a pressure flip in the bus/hippy van. GOTY.

I started playing the first day of early access before the game exploded and it wasn't that bad, but it got much worse once it turned into the must play GOTY. The first few patches after that it was dogshit, and so far in 1.0 it seems to be a tenth of what it was just a few months ago. Oh, there is no doubt about the game being worth it imo. Everyone should get it. The pros for outweigh the cons. One can dream about 128 tick servers though.
