Who doesn't have this game already?
What the hell is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds? PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS is a last-man-standing shooter being developed with community feedback. Starting with nothing, players must fight to locate weapons and supplies in a battle to be the lone survivor. This realistic, high tension game is set on a massive 8x8 km island with a level of detail that showcases Unreal Engine 4's capabilities.
Why does it look so ugly? Because realism god dammit. That and no one cares because it's intense and heart-rate inducing.
How do I win? By getting good. Only then will you be allowed to taste the succulent chicken dinner.
Doesn't this have those cancerous loot crates? Yes but no. Loot crates are currently bought through in-game currency awarded at the end of a game, and only give you cosmetic items for your avatar. If you get lucky you can even sell them on the Steam Marketplace for stupid amounts of money and laugh.
New season started, love them 10-15 kill games. Will Enjoy it until their crap system places me too high.
Really like playing this game on PC, but I suck pretty badly. Not used to playing shooters with KB+M. I’ll probably switch over to the Xbox version once that’s out as long as it runs well.
By LukarWuff Go To PostReally like playing this game on PC, but I suck pretty badly. Not used to playing shooters with KB+M. I’ll probably switch over to the Xbox version once that’s out as long as it runs well.It can be finicky to begin with if you are new to the KB+M scenario but overtime you get better at judging movement and focusing. I've found a good mouse can play the bigger part in my enjoyment on PC because of the added benefit of changing DPI on fly if needed. Helps when sniping through scopes so I can go at a lower sensitivity if needed.
Man i went from playing this almost daily to not at all
Was laughing at Fortnite initially, looked like a minecraft imitation of PUBG but im hooked
Any of you guys play Fortnite too?

I had a game earlier where our squad started with only 3 people, and one of them quickly died, and then when there about 25 people left I died, but I kept watching and my teammate actually won by himself. First he tracked down the one that killed me literally just to avenge me, which I appreciated, and then he found an assault rifle suppressor on the corpse, so he just snake crawled around in the middle of the circle for the rest of the round and occasionally he would shoot someone through the grass while they were distracted by someone else. I kept expecting a 4-man to pop out of the bushes and flatten him, but he was really smart about which fights to engage in and only ever had to take on 1-2 at a time.

I didn't really get into Fortnite, but I can't wait to jump ship. Just waiting for Battlefield Royale and we're golden
I like the game a lot, but not enough to get good at it
I basically get carried in every duos match. Then again, the roles are reversed in dota so we're even 😏

By Smokey Go To PostNew season started yet?
I believe it did.
By Smokey Go To PostNew season started yet?Yes indeed, and Squad FPP for OCE so rejoice for us aussie battlers.
Real talk. Solo queue, drop straight into school, and have a blast. That's how all my games went today, and I never made it to the top 10. lol

Framing this. Will edit out the lies at the end though.
Edit: Fortnite is fun, but they need to change the Rng aspect of the shooting. It's infuriating at times. I don't like how small the map is either.
p. sure the most kills I've ever had is 4. Most of my squad seems to get the kills I just get the assists
Highest I ever got was 113 or 14 kills, and it was purely off the luck of shotty kills in army base. Never repeated again sadly :(
I bought the game a few days ago and I couldn't believe how bad I was playing. Never finding anyone shooting at me and completely disoriented. I played the game at my brother's place (It was actually one of my birthday presents for him) before buying it myself and while I wasn't a good player, I wasn't that bad either. Then I found out why:
An air drop passed over my head and I noticed that something was wrong when I looked left to find it and then it appeared from the right side. My sound was reversed. I looked it up and apparently there's an issue with the Logitech Gaming Software (there are quite a few google results about it) that I fixed by completely uninstalling it, rebooting, installing it and rebooting before launching PUBG once again. I guess it was caused by updating it over an older version instead of doing a clean install, but I tell you guys it's worth to check it out.

Couple days old but thought I'd post it just incase peeps may have skimmed by or lost it in the sea of news recently:
Full notes can be found here on discussion about test servers and how they plan to handle them pre-1.0 patch.
Update On Test Servers, Patch Notes For Next Week
We plan to run a few rounds of test servers prior to the PC 1.0 release, but we have one more live server patch to roll out before that. This patch will be deployed to the test servers first early next week. We will update you with the exact date and time soon.
Before we delve into the patch notes, we would like to share several important announcements and the schedule for the test servers.
First Test Servers: Focus on the Vaulting & Climbing Feature
We have decided to run the first test servers prior to the PC 1.0 release in early November. Vaulting and climbing feature is the main content of this patch, and it needs a minimum of three days of extensive testing. We ask you to play in the test servers, and try this feature out. We will make a separate announcement about a detailed schedule and the contents of the first round of test servers soon. We will do the same for the second and third rounds of test servers which will follow.
Early Access – Week 31 – Patch Notes
Gameplay
Blue zone DOT (Damage over Time) increases when characters are farther away from the play zone
This principle does not apply to the first blue zone
Bug Fix
Resolved a bug where bullets would sometimes ignore armor

aaah that's hilarious. I'll bet there were so many times that people were shooting at you and were befuddled when you just turned your back to them. It must be nice to have confirmation that you don't suck as bad as you thought though. My sound is fine and I still lose every gunfight.
By Smokey Go To PostYeah I made one that weve been using. What's discord name I'll send inviteI think he means using the slaent discord. :p
Which, honestly, would be a better idea.
E: would encourage activity and hopefully engage people more fully with the community

We got top 3 last with Red Blaster, dark phaze, myself and ecnal (former nba gaf, still lurks around though.)
if you are struggling, change servers (region). The ranking system is trash and will often rank you higher than you should be just for playing. The game is less fun when you are in the top few % on every region, which is why resets are so great.
Played with some friends their very first game last night.
A bit lucky with the circle but I did manage to get them chicken in their first game ever.

By Kabro Go To Posttonight's games was pure trash
lmao
Its definitely a different game with group play and first person. It's so hard to confirm how strong a group is, if its just a solo guy, etc. You've gotta take a completely different approach to how you engage an area. Running in a straight line to X is the worst way to go about it. You've gotta really efficiently clear areas as a group before you start looting.
I'm gonna copy from the discord what happened in one of the games last night. A guy took out the whole squad by himself hiding behind a fuking tree
I called out EXACTLY where he was . I guess nobody could see his ass peeking and no peeking around the tree. We were in a battle and he caught me and I bled out. He was behind a tree and we were in a house. I was on top floor.
I literally cry for help in the mic for a revive. Phee says he's coming but then can't find the steps....I'm bleeding out on my fuking stomach and phee running around downstairs and can't find the stairs. I had a SKS and a fully kitted out M416 with 5 attachments too
Anyway he makes it over right as I've created down stairs and die. While he's crouching looting me or whatever, breh from behind the tree pops him one time and he bleeds out. Then sizzle tries to help. Popped. Then kado. Popped.
They bleed out. Game over.

there needs to be a spotting mechanic
"BREH He's NORTHWESTTtt BEHIND DAT tree"
dudes spinning, meanwhile someguy is crouch firing his rifle and the pixel that is his bobbing upper half recoiling from accurate gunfire is barely visible
but that's kind of the thrill of PUBG

I literally called out some shit like SW 135. I gave the coordinates. I described the tree. That shit was wild lmao. Wish I had recorded it. I actually might have it under replays.
I cant confirm or deny that ever took place. But if it did, id probably not mention it. Like ever.
Also, went solo last night. Got to last 3. It was getting pretty intense as the circle was getting smaller. But one of the two dudes was camping inside a building as i was walking in. Smh.

By Kabro Go To Postwould it be too much to ask for a motherfucking 15x scope please?You need to loot those airdrop crates for it.
