Dumb question but you have to visually pick everything up, yeah?

My only major gripe is the depth of field being loving atrocious and not being able to get 144 or 165 fps on a 1080 ti/OC'd i7-8700k rig(in blackout anyway.)

Okay, we got one of our guys working again. Data Execution Protection in his anti-virus was causing it to crash whenever the intro movie played or whenever any in-between wait scenes. What a weird freakin' issue to have.

Installed the latest NVidia driver and my FPS is consistently around 80fps now. It's smooth as silk for me finally. Also played some RoE and now my FPS is in the low 100s when it was around 70 previous.

This latest video driver added a turbo boost or someshit to all my games. What the fucccck.

Is there ranked matchmaking? The thing that made me stop playing PUBG was when I tried playing less passively and dropped my ranking to the bottom 1% to practice actually fighting people and I kept getting matched up against top 1000 players :saddowns:

quote:

Blackout:
- Level 3 Armor has a reduced spawn rates in the world. Less often in the world now.
- Changes to Muzzle Flashes coming for release: they don’t want it to impact your field of view. They want it shown to you in a dark room, not all the time. Muzzle Flashes are now improved for launch.
- Changes also have been made to what you see on screen when you’re outside the zone. Not as much red on your screen, “feels appropriate to being outside.”

Audio Updates:
- Fixed audio issues between walls/etc, that wasn’t working properly in beta
- Teammates foot steps are now quieter
- Under Audio Options in Settings, there’s many mix settings to work for your play style, including headphone option for those who were annoyed with the pre-stage deployment sounds.
- New option, tap to pick up, added for consoles. They are actively discussing making tap to pick up items default, hold to pick an option. Picking up items is a lot faster. Don’t have to look down anymore.

HUD Updates:
- You’ll see when your teammates are downed now.
- Top right corner of your screen: Kills + Cleanups. Kills — put in down state; Clean up — finishing enemy off down state.
- Updated After Action Report in Blackout, can also see Squad stats
- As you level up in Blackout, every 20 levels, you will get a new Blackout character. There’s a total of 80 levels in Blackout.
- Changes to the Merit System to better suit the mode based on feedback. Earn merit, 10 points, for kills. More merit earned for placement in matches.
- Hit markers are now different for what you’re hitting. Specific hit marker for hitting a vehicle versus hitting a player.

Some changes to Armor since the start of the Beta include:

- Spawn frequency of Level 3 Armor has been reduced by 75% compared to its initial spawn rate in the Beta.
- Level 3 Armor will now most frequently be found in Stashes and Supply Drops, though it may occasionally spawn in the world.
- Level 3 Armor now breaks sooner and passes more damage to the player wearing it, and still offers headshot and other types of damage mitigation. We’ve heard your concerns that Level 3 Armor was still perhaps too powerful by the end of the Beta, and will be evaluating the data to see what other tweaks may be required.
- Level 2 Armor was also minorly adjusted during the Beta and will potentially be tweaked further in time for launch.
- Players will see an indicator of the condition of their own Armor, and those of their teammates, in the HUD. This provides a more granular indicator of the damage that your Armor has taken beyond the Armor icon and will let you know if it’s time to seek out a replacement.

Hard to put my finger on it but the game feels so much more visually noisy than pubg.

But, the movement.

Still mostly suck at this, but Blackout is just so fun. It's quick enough that even if we all wipe by having an entire squad in a closet and someone accidentally hits e instead of w and we all burn alive from the molotov that we can just jump right back in quick.

The mobility is fantastic. Vaulting, sliding and climbing is just so fluid and FUN.

Gliders are sometimes bugged which leads to some hilarious deaths as well.

I had a few minutes to kill last night and dipped into the regular MP modes for the fist time. Played 4 or 5 rounds of solo FFA and, yeah, each time there were 3 other dudes just annihilating everyone with the Paladin. Is that stupid thing a OHK no matter where it hits you?

Also might need to make a new mouse profile with a higher sensitivity for regular MP since there's so much more close range jumpy/slidy fights compared to Blackout/PUBG where my poo poo is dialed in for.

Apparently all the streamer memers favor the KN. Goons confirm? I’m having a hard time getting a feel for the guns in this game since they are all so wildly different than your classic M4, AK, etc.

The KN is an AK with extra wires on it. Look at the reload animation.

The default KN class with the red dot and fast mags felt completely capable.

And what Vulgar said; ignore the future skins, there's a :psylon: equivalent for pretty much every contemporary weapon (M4, AK, AUG, etc.).

How do you keep from being utterly ruined once a team starts to have an edge in multiplayer? Just did a domination where we finished like 51 - 200 and by the second round we were stuck in spawn with a seemingly infinite number of attack choppers, dogs, AC-130s, and whatever else overhead as the enemy just camped our spawn from A or C or whatever was closer to us. Most times I didn't live long enough to get a gun out so not sure if that's just a quit and leave situation or not but it's happened several times so looking for advice in case it isn't a no-win!

If you're with a team, regroup at halftime. Slow down and hold power positions.
If not, lol

I tried the reddit thing for threads_workload or whatever. It helped initially but I got a lot more hitches. I've set it to 6 now, but I have 6c/12t, and it's working pretty well.
