I feel like loot crates are always worth going for early. I get so many kills with the M24 or AWM snipers, and it almost guarantees a win if you make top 10 with them.

Anyone here having issues with freezing? For me, what happens is it'll stutter sometimes like it's loading in objects, but other times (most of the time) it'll do the same and it'll freeze for a good 2-20 seconds at a time. Makes it impossible to ever get close to winning for me.

It happens at the most random times. I can be skydiving in, and I freeze for a solid minute and end up in the middle of a city, dead because someone shot me while frozen. Or I can be running in a straight line through a field at 80 FPS, only to freeze for seconds and end up on the other side of the field, or dead.

The only times it freezes for me is when I am loading in during the waiting area. I am getting tons of frame drops and other instability issues.

Good thing this game has kept the ARMA graphical experience :awesome:

H1Z1's devs really screwed their game up and all the big streamers started playing PUBG. I do miss some things from H1Z1, but I'm pretty happy with PUBG.

I just hope they can optimize their game, it really reminds me of ARMA where the game itself was built in a way that could not be optimized, by devs or modders.

NO LISTEN TO ME posted:

So what's the story with H1Z1? Seems like there's at least some story there, since I know Playerunknown licensed out the mod idea to get H1Z1 made but then it seems like just when I was starting to hear about H1Z1 (as someone super not tuned into this kind of survival-esque steam game, you know the type) everyone suddenly jumped ship to PUBG.

Playerunknown's mod in ARMA became super popular and H1Z1 came out with a game that was similar to DayZ and then later added a battle royale mode to the game that then became super popular. There are tons of issues with H1Z1 from a technical standpoint, tons of hackers, teamers in solo queue, bugs, dsync and lag, and other random stuff. They continue to sell loot crates after pretty much abandoning fixing the game.

Lots of people who are playing PUBG worry about the devs dropping support and not fixing the issues with the game.

Camo doesn't even remotely work in these games because everything you see is the player model's silhouette instead of the colors they have, with exception to someone wearing a neon pink shirt or something ridiculous. The only way camo works in games is if the game has a super lovely color palette and poor resolution so every mud colored player blends into the mud colored everything else or if it is something that breaks up the model's profile like ghillie suits and poo poo.

Yeah I think they need to adjust the loot again.

It's a different game if everyone needs to hit the big cities for chances at loot but the circle and time stay the same.

If anything there should be more bolt actions in the game. This is fake Russia so the most common weapon should be a rusted Mosin-Nagant.

Plus open-field combat with Uzis and UMPs probably isn't realistic.

Ok, this makes a lot more sense now. For some reason I thought there were planes coming in from every angle each match and I just got spawned on a random one.

Up until it got released on Steam, there were 3 planes flying in a line that dropped everyone off. So people in the front plane had an advantage over people in the back plane.

The thrill of the early and late game is unmatched for me. But the midgame is awful. People are still looting or waiting for the circle to get smaller. I'm not sure how they can fix this or speed up the midgame.

i would play this game more if gunshots didn't make such a loud noise when you got hit. like seriously the loud grunts your character makes and the sound of when you actually get hit arent needed and it actually scares the gently caress outta me every time

Am I missing anything? It's only the crates which will cost extra, the game will still cost 30$ or so.

Though really going with these microtransactions after the game already made them a hundred million dollars is a bit too greedy, imo.

they already said that monetization would happen once the game was released and that turns out not to be the case and are doing it in early access

just a series of stupid decisions from PU, reminds me of H1Z1 and how things progressively just got worse

Yeah watching that vod there is no reason for them to be looting those tiny houses with nothing in them while action is happening around them. They are too late into the game to worry about attachments and minor meds, they seemed like they had enough gear to strictly find kills and move towards the circle. They were also slow to realize where the enemy was shooting from even though it was repeated on comms.

That guy is a douche tho.
