I’m surprisingly unworried about this considering how many actual cheaters with aimbot I’ve encountered lately. I mean, this is definitely advantageous but I imagine people using this will have trouble telling when an enemy is in cover or not.

Since hits are client side would the cover even block shots? Whenever I had that bug where stuff didn't render in I could shoot people behind cover most of the time.

Shroud is cool, but all his little hanger-ons are insufferable. Chad and just9n need to go away forever.

Hanger ons? Lol. J9 was a pro cs player for a while wasn't he. And I think Chad's shrouds real life friend since he's over at his house pretty often.

This conversation started because people were talking about watching him, probably a page ago.

I've never been hyped up on Shroud ever since I realized what a huge advantage he gets from his streamsnipers taking him gear on drop and letting him kill them.

I watched Choco win 3 games over the course of like 2 hours, in addition to a bunch of top 10s, and I was way more impressed because he usually drops hot and fights his way out.

And yeah he has 14,000 followers and 777 subs, or did last night when he signed off. But you actually don't need like 1000 subs or whatever to go full time; I know people who are full time at like 3-400. Due to donations and stuff I imagine it can be incredibly tight but if you don't have kids or anything like that and you live in a not terribly expensive place it seems you can make it.

he won plenty of games when he went through the trouble of hiding his screen and before snipers were all over him as well. I think it's mostly the aimbot levels from playing competitive CSGO all the time more than his stream snipers helping him...

The best part about the doc's gimmick is that it allows him to rage in situations where he just blew a kill. Half the time he'll run a clip and realize he wasnt wearing a helmet or something else stupid, but most times he flips out, it's because the game is a dumpster full of other smaller dumpsters all on fire.

The best part of a 'gimmick' is when you can rage out like a monkey and be like haha its just a joke guys

I finally got the chance to play a decent amount of the new map last night. My only gripe is: You really seem to have to stick to the roads when driving, and that sucks for such a large map. Our group got caught three times with people just sitting behind a broke down car on the side of the road waiting for people to drive at them. Is this normal? Is this what people are going to do on that map? If so, it is going to really limit dropping at any of the far corners to try and avoid having to drive a decent distance into the circle.

I did win a chicken dinner though, in the hills! :D

Every vehicle on the new map besides the van is fine at driving offroad unless your driver is negative IQ

Yea, I'm fine at driving, just not straight up the enormous mountains that seem to be everywhere? Yes there are flat bumpy lands here and there, but the majority of the areas in between towns have enormous rocky mountains that aren't really meant for driving, and if you do take them, it takes forever. It's nothing like the Russia map, where you can essentially drive wherever the hell you want. Maybe I need to play it more to learn the routes that I can offroad at without driving up an enormous rocky mountain.

Also are they fixing the horrible shaking when you try to shoot out of driving cars?

Both the buggy and bike go at high speeds up hills and the truck does pretty decent as well. It's not like the Dacia or van where it literally won't accelerate on an incline

Anyone have advice for my dad lol. He wants to start playing battlegrounds and he's a 64 year old man. He used to play modern warfare 2. I don't think he would enjoy this game but he wants to try.

Why do you not think he wouldn’t like it? Do you play? Insight would help us give advice.

Probably because he'll get brutally owned over and over. I'll try to duo with him and keep him alive. I was mostly just posting about it and wondering if other goons had the same experience.

There is also the fact that 1v1 fights are extremely random because of the constant lag, constant failure for hits to reg, and constant bugs. When you have a couple players you can at least mitigate this somewhat by being tactical. With 1v1 it's pretty much just a dice roll of which player is going to get the good graces of the RNG.

Also, multiple people can search more area for loot and so there is less chance of getting RNG hosed and getting no good weapons.

Fwiw I almost never feel like my 1v1s are decided by luck
