Which is pretty much the same thing, I get at worst sub 250 anywhere but Asia, which is a lawless wasteland of 400-500+
So, prior to the last few days, I had never encountered a cheater in TPP. But since yesterday, I've been killed by Chinese players using no recoil, aim bots, and wall hacks. They aren't even trying to hide the fact that they're cheating.
So my friends have turned to FPP, and lo and behold, no cheaters. Ping/region lock can't come soon enough.
Really annoying when you are having a good game and it's ruined by something like this, I had killed like 8 people and thought I had a real good shot at winning.

[QUOTE=Reagy;53021124]Funny you say this because I'm the complete opposite in opinion, after playing Miramar I really, really don't like Erangel anymore. Erangel's loot setup is a problem I have with it, there's not enough places as a whole in the map. You're purposely forced into few select, very dense, marked places and then you're doing walking simulator between large expanses of land. On Miramar this is at least broken up by the massive usage of shanty buildings, little settlements and unmarked towns, there's just so many more places on Miramar and it breaks up that walking simulator feeling. Also the overall design of Erangel is just frustrating, due to it being an island it isn't as large as it could actually be and they don't use the space it has well at all (as previously mentioned), there is also the whole dumb military base island which honestly, it'd be better if it wasn't even an island or just wasn't separated off by the big ass lake going between it. If it was more like the river system spouting off from Georgopol it'd be vastly less annoying.
Plus Miramar, its got the better vehicles and weapons (other than the DP, why is this on Erangel only seriously?), also Erangel is an unrefined mess with floating buildings still, Miramar has a vastly more polished finish to it (still suffers from walk in rocks and fucked geometry due to quick terrain generation though).[/QUOTE]
Warming up to a bit more after playing more, I still find myself preferring Erangel though and I don't really know exactly what about Miramar I dislike.
I have a pretty decent winrate across solo/duo/squads but I still haven't won a single game out of quite a few on Miramar so I don't know if it just doesn't fit with my playstyle as well.
On the topic of voice chat: on more than one occasion my group has run into a squad that is communicating solely on ingame voice chat. It makes it surprisingly easy to push them when they're all on voice chat asking if someone knows where "that other squad is"
Me and my brother got shot off a bike with two consecutive headshots. Yeah, okay. It was close range so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Next game, we're running though the desert. Brother suddenly gets quietly gunned down with an AKM, didn't hear a thing. I go behind cover. Suddenly get gunned down. We watched the killcam and the dude was in a city at least 2 miles away and killing people with short bursts at a building...
Spent like 15 minutes running around only to get killed by some lazy cunt who thinks he's hot shit for getting a hack. What a pathetic way to have fun.

This is the problem with the big ban waves, they just rebuy and get shoved in with everyone else because the MMR gets fucked.
If you're playing third person its worth swapping to first, theres a significantly reduced amount playing with cheats on first person.
Don't know if anyone has brought this up before, but does anyone else here hate the new smoke nades?
I mean they're the most pathetic little puff of smoke ever, before 1.0 they where actually very useful and the effect was really good.

I so loved not being able to see through them but the foe can because it decided to render in a different direction on their client.
No, fuck the old client side smoke grenades that were not consistent between players.
Man there are so many problems with this game It'll take at least a year to get them fixed at this rate.

Yeah true, I completely forgot about the client side issue with smoke.
Not sure if I still have the video clip but I remember being downed by someone and I yelled over mic to wait and don't kill me. Surprisingly the person also has a mic and agree's. A few seconds later he gets blasted by my teammate who then revives me :v:
Got my first ever solo dinner just now, on the new map no less
Supreme shout-out to the #2 guy, who spent the last two circles driving around in a 4x4 being a massive, noisy target, and yet everyone on the map was terrified of shooting at him for fear of giving away their position, but his engine noise covered the suppressed shots from my gun, letting me pick off the rest of the enemy without them having the slightest clue where they were being shot from
It was a good time
I just picked this game up and so far it's pretty good. It runs much better than I thought it would
Had a 1 v 1 with my whole team watching me only to witness that I forgot to put my M416 in full auto and just tap the enemys head once. All the advantages I had were lost just like the game and we came in 2nd.

How about you stop the cheating first.
They give us 100,000 BP, but still have a crate limit, what the fuck's the point then?

I gotta reflect sometimes that this game has actually come pretty far in terms of performance. At least for me and my squad, every update bumps the frames up or fixes some glaring performance issue. It's just such a depressing thought that after so much fixing, we still have [I]so[/I] far to go before this trash heap of a game can be considered a 'full release' title.

And this is where its just better to buy what you want off the market using other virtual items than it is playing chance.
But hey, who cares, it doesn't effect gameplay lmao. /s
The game runs flawlessly for me in terms of FPS, has done for months. Considering when I got it back in March you were lucky to get 20fps in towns and the first 10 minutes of every match suffered horrific rubber banding it is pretty decent now.

Drop rates have always been atrocious for this game, pure and simple it's to artificially inflate rarity of items to give them a value and create an 'economy' like CSGO. They probably have it all worked out based on crate opening stats so that they know roughly how many a week will be created. There will be substantially less paid crates opened vs free ones so I wouldn't be surprised if early on these 0.01% items are numbered in the thousands and have ridiculous pricetags.
Best thing to do now would be to save up BP and dump it all into crates, check what the prices of the cheaper free crate items are like on release day and if its not worth the gamble just sell all of the crates off on the market for the likely few dollars/£ they will go for. Time limited event crates will be worth holding on to in future, like the gamescom crates are worth £5 right now but I dumped all mine for £2 a piece when they came out.
I wonder if the lowing the droprate of survivor/wanderer crates to 10% is also a move to see if they can bring the value of the crates and the items in them back up by increasing the rarity and letting supplies slowly drain away as people eat the current stocks up.

At least you can report cheaters through the replay system next though, I submitted at ticket through their new report system with a video of two Koreans blatantly aimbotting everything that moved and got a cookie cutter response telling me to use the ingame report next time, its all fine and well saying that but if they don't kill you then you can't report them and you are limited to reporting a single person rather than their cheating teammate as well.

With those drop rates anything even remotely cool with be hundreds or thousands of dollars. It's criminal.
Why does it feel like theres a FUCKTON of cheaters?

It's unbelievable how many unreal shots I see.
anybody have any idea how to fix the stuttering bullshit that happens?
Like I have a decently leveled rig, run the game on ultra at about 50-65 frames, but it will randomly drop down to 0 frames for about 1-2.5 seconds, which is absolutely horrible when you're in a firefight.
Even on low settings it still fucks up.
all settings on low.
tried every different resolution
drivers are up to date
reinstalled
game is installed on a higher end SSD
launch options are changed with every -option you can think of
all cores are enabled
games given top priority on my CPU
games optimized through the NVIDIA shit
I've done every fucking thing I can think of, but it still shits out, and the dev team doesn't seem to give a shit, as there are numerous threads from people, some as old as six months, in which people are complaining of the same issues.

Specs? I'm having stutter issues too and they get worse when people start shooting. I'm blaming my gpu though but more blame goes to the incompetent devs.
