[QUOTE=simkas;52730539]Yeah but that requires you to be aiming to see around the corner there. There really should be a way to switch camera sides without having to aim.[/QUOTE]
Oh no I wasn't disagreeing with the fact that it is an issue, just stating something that can help alleviate it for users who don't know.
It is pretty shit that you can't switch shoulders without having to aim.
Being zoomed also means you can't see as far around corners. Not being able to switch shoulders in normal mode has the additional effect of not providing any indication of which shoulder you'll be using when you zoom.
Apparently I find grenade kills hilarious

I was able to find this on sale for just under £20, i think that's a fair enough price for giving this a shot. We'll see how this meme game holda up, shall we?
-wrong thread-
Do you think it would be better if players started off with a pistol in their inventory?
A smaller 9mm pistol, a little weaker than the P92 that you only get when spawning in. 30 rounds.
Would help even out the starting chance of getting fucked for loot in a contested area.

Yeah but then what would be the point of punches? Idk I kinda like the chaos of the start of the game when you're trying to find a single weapon.

As annoying as it is dropping somewhere just to find you're not alone and there aren't any guns around. I don't know if having a starter pistol would be a good idea. Part of the game is making sure you plan your jump right after all.
Just don't drop right next to other players and you can't get RNG'd.
If anything I'd prefer a lvl 1 backpack to start but at the same time that is sort of the point of the game, to land with only the clothes on your back (or lack thereof if you're one of [I]those[/I] people)
So here's something I've been wondering. If I'm prone out in the open but appear on my screen to be hidden by grass. And someone is looking in my direction from such a distance that to them the grass hasn't rendered in. To them am I just lying down in the open or does the game hide you at that distance.

Yep, they can see you clear as day. Same goes for Wheat fields.
They've said they're planning on using armas system for hiding the player at a distance in the future, but they say they're gonna do a lot of things.
Wow so all those times I've been crawling through grass thinking I'm being all stealthy and cool I actually look like a total idiot. Great.
My fantasy of being Big Boss in this game has been shattered.

Only from a certain distance though. Someone needs to be searching that area from far away to see you. They're still good for mid range battles.
I'm guessing FPP stands for first person perspective and is also broken seeing as I could play in third person?
duo games become way more fun once my teammate dies and I have to try and make it to the end using my own wits against pairs, but I dislike solo queuing for duos since it takes away that feeling that I'm making it for my friend as well.
Also, the K98k is way more fun than it should ever be allowed to be, blasting an unsuspecting guy in the head is so satisfying.

You already kinda do, the Utility Belt is a basic mini-backpack meant to tide you over until you can find a proper one.
My mate actually dropped his at the start of a match once and was shocked to discover that he couldn't pick up anything anymore :v:
[QUOTE=Hogie bear;52732586]Yeah but then what would be the point of punches? Idk I kinda like the chaos of the start of the game when you're trying to find a single weapon.[/QUOTE]
More to give you a small ranged chance. Like, the starter pistol would hurt less than punches while allowing you to have a smaller increased chance of surviving in distances.
Maybe like, a Kolibri, idk.

Why do people say this game is hard again?
Well my first match went well.
First one to die in just under 30 seconds with the theme of shooting stars in the background.
It only gets better from here.
Do people really consider it bad etiquette to go into the safe zone immediately and hunker down in a house?
I find it incredulous that people call others out for this sort of conduct in a survival game.

People find it cheap but its a legit strat, house hopping can be massively successful and besides, grabbing stuff then avoiding players tends to be a good way to win, but also one of the more boring ways to play.
Hiding in a house is the safest and most efficient way to get to the final rounds, but the trade-off is twenty or so minutes of downtime staring at a wall being paranoid about people coming in and murderising you if you take your ears off of it for ten seconds. There's nothing cheap about it since it can only carry you so far.
I dunno if it's boring. When I'm hiding in a house somewhere around the middle of the zone, I get a minor heart attack whenever I hear something that I think may be a passing car or a single footstep.
Polish comic that sums the game up perfectly:

1) - What are you doing?
- Playuing PUBG. I'm sitting in a bathtub hoping noone will find me. Such emotions.
2) And now I'm hiding behind a crate, throwing smoke around me. Noone will see me. N'on.
3) I'm hiding in grass and waiting for everyone else to kill each other.
4) Two last players died in a car accident. I won without firing a single shot. Best. Shooter. Ever.

Arma's system isn't going to fix anything, they'll still see you clear as day, you'll just look slightly shorter / flatter, but still fully visible.

Less than punches? Punches do like 10 damage max. It would be a completely useless weapon. The fact that you are suggesting something worse than Pistols is already funny, since PU made them awful by design.

How the heck is it cheap? Do people really get upset that other players won't willingly be their sniper bait? Taking a strategic position is just smart, and often enough you have to assault and defend said position from other teams.

That's not Arma's system. Arma's system means that at distance, you'll appear as clipping slightly into the ground, you wouldn't be fully visible.

ArmA renders a plane slightly above the ground at longer ranges where foliage stops rendering does it not?
Sounds fine to me, even if it's not perfect concealment it should work well enough. Just having a backpack or my afro poking through the ground slightly would be enough to stop most players from spotting me instantly at least.

If I'm going this route I like to throw something tantalising into the center of the room as well. Setting ambushes like this is a great way to score easy loot without having to play risky and scavenge around yourself.
It's embarrassing when you've setup the perfect ambush and no one actually shows up though.

Weenies usually do, and it's usually only when they die because of it. At the end of the day only thing in PUBG is Live or Die and as long as you play fair it doesn't matter how you get to one or the other.
