Surprisingly good game, I like it a lot. Is it better to kill people than to have a good ranking? Most people seem to always jump together and just go on a killing spree. The way I play it, I won't even encounter a person until there is like 40 left and dying before the last 20 is just really bad luck.

The biggest enemy in this game is not trying to gently caress up using the iron sights and ending up with third person.

Almost there. I explain fast without to much detail how I get there with a KDR under 2. Played today around 15 games with this strat and never died once before #10. First Rule: NEVER engange someone unless you absolutly have to because he blocks your path on foot or you are 100% sure you get the kill and can loot him. Second Rule: Cars are your best friends, they will almost always safely get you in the middle of of the circle and can provide a fast escape if the following circle is not how you want it or will provide cover just by standing behind them. The following picture shows to where I jump to 99% depending on the flight path, the place I loot and where I obtain my car. When you have finished looting and got your car, there should be around 60/50 Players alive and the first blue circle closing in/second white circle appear. After you got your car, you basicly spend your whole time driving around and flanking the complete circle depending of the path the plane took. There should be no need to get out of the car until the last 30/40 are alive or you need some additional loot from small house clusters you know they will be empty: When there are between 30 and 40 people you drive straight into the middle of the circle and search for a building to camp, park your car infront of the entrace, dont try to make it seem empty, we dont want to fight, we want them to avoid us. If the following circle is out of your position, get into the car and change position with around 30 people left. Your goal should be camping in a house withing the white circle and 20 players alive. If you managed to do that, and the next circle is not in your location, ignore it, our main goal is top10, everything else is extra. Dont move from your position until the blue circle is killing you and you cant escape it, pretty much every game for me, I am already top10 before the blue circle forces me out of the position without firing a single shot if not forced to, but still having a reasonable chance to get to rank #1. At least it works for me. Zero proofreading went into this. Paradigmata fucked around with this message at 09:37 on Apr 1, 2017 |

Bardeh posted:That sounds like a very good strat for purely climbing the leaderboard, but it doesn't really sound like much fun. Yeah, its defenitly not the most interessting experience if you are in for sick firefights. But this strat is comming from a person who could spend 8 hours a day staring trough a scope in DayZ hunting bandits, never move, and do some bullet drop math on the side.

Does this game have a Lore or something? I would assume if there was a lore that implies that those Battle Royale happen more often you could spread more crashed planes and burned out cars over the whole map as cover, or add some artillery holes and fallen over trees at some parts of the map. At the moment it just seems like you are being dropped with the first 100 people on this empty island.

30%? I doubt there will be more than 5% of the playerbase that will play first person only, just because many will go back to third person realising they are bad at it and have zero situational awarness.

Songbearer posted:Throwing smoke bombs when you're the last few players alive in a field so the enemy gets confused and assumes you're heading in the smoke's direction so they look that way while you creep around in the opposite direction for a flank: Surprisingly effective. Meanwhile smokes are clientside and go straight up in the air like a fountain and wont fool anyone: Unsurprisingly bad. Only time they were usefull is by smoking a house so they cant see something while you reposition, or just killing your opponents FPS

Just a reminder that holding your weapon up when facing a wall is clientside and for everyone else the whole gun will stick trough the wall giving away your position.

Did they change on the test servers how lightning in buildings work? Its really straining on the eyes now, and the loot now glowing like glowsticks is really headache inducing overlayed with the dark rooms.

VulgarandStupid posted:The SAW has a bipod that actually deploys when you prone. Now with the new foliage, that might actually be useful. That one out of a thousand games where you camp prone with a Para not further than 80m from a corner where enemy will come around and didnt saw you because of the foilage will be pretty usefull.

Condoleezza Nice! posted:That sounds needlessly risky IMO I went into Top25 Global win rating in solo with that strat with a KDR under 1.8, there is basicly zero risk with this. I rather take two potential fights in a game that you choose + getting shot at while driving around, than CONSTANT risk of getting shot from 360°

I can use this game in fullscreen as if it was borderless with a two-screen setup, if you open the steam overlay or open the inventory, it lets me just move over to the other screen and do stuff without having the game minimized. I wouldn't know of any other game where this works right now.

Protip: You can flip bikes by pressing F. Also on a sidenote to the Elo system. I started to gather some information about the matches to figure out what number has how much impact on the leaderboards. I will probably make it accessible when I have around 25-30 matches of information. And some people in the Top10 still shouldn't be in the Top100

After playing 680+ Rounds combined in Solo/Duo/Squad/Custom on all Servers, I have come to the conclusion that my main enemy in this game is the terrible performance(alpha blending/auto generated LODs) and the completly overloaded servers with a constant lag of 1+ second (EU). Enemy players are merely a buggy game asset that you can loot.

So far I've died to the other players 251times in my 122 hours 25 minutes. It serves no real purpose other than being an RNG nuisance in my opinion. It's stupid to have your game ended by complete RNG that you can't do anything about in some situations. The only reason Red zone is considered a nuisance is because you know where its comming. It shoulnt even mark where it strikes, just announce it, so every single player needs to consider finding shelter or hope its not on him.
