PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS V2- Stream Honks - Games

dang pubg is finally at the point where i can't get into a game at 9am on a weekday

did anyone else get the 100k and 6 keys as compensation for something? i got the notification for it in game but didnt get the compensation.

[QUOTE=Pat.Lithium;53121573]did anyone else get the 100k and 6 keys as compensation for something? i got the notification for it in game but didnt get the compensation.[/QUOTE] Did you get this on test? Because they gave everyone exactly that amount of stuff on test servers to test new crates a month or so ago.

first game i played after their anti cheat measures, entire squad gets killed by a group of aimbotters

So, I haven't played the game in nearly 6 months. I knew that my tactics and instincts would be pretty damn rusty so I decided to heed an old advice this thread gives out from time to time: drop school again and again. So I did, and for 20 games in a row I got the shit beat out of me. I'm speaking not even being able to survive the initial skirmish 20 times in a row. I got to admit, it did teach me a LOT even though I couldn't even get a weapon half the time. And guess what? I just got my first chicken dinner since my comeback. 20 rounds below 20th rank and I was able to clutch this last one. [editline]11th February 2018[/editline] Haha, literally never broke top 10 this season until that chicken dinner: [t]https://i.imgur.com/bePNX5o.jpg[/t]

1 man squad is so fun you almost always encounter more than one person, and nothing is more satisfying that knocking and immediately killing one of the enemy team members, as you're completely aware that someone somewhere is screaming down discord and you've just ruined their game

Don't leave someone down, kill them outright; even if you die, you still ruined the fun of someone in their party. fuck them. Additionally, was running with my boys towards town and heard a frag go off, so I thought "Oh hey must be cool stuff going on." After watching the replay, one of the guys flicked a frag at his squadmate and downed him. [t]https://puu.sh/zlwoC/bb3e11f47a.jpg[/t] After sweeping up a bit, I went upstairs to see if I could find the culprit of this mess and... [t]https://puu.sh/zlwnf/3404e14399.jpg[/t] The guy tried to punch me. Had two suppressed rifles on his back, but he tried to punch me. After mowing him down, reloading, and having a heart to heart with him, I literally asked him "Dude what the fuck was your plan there? Like, genuinely asking, what was your goal?" and got a bunch of oriental gibberish in response. This isn't DayZ, you can't knock people out bud. I put him down.

If anyones looking to play squads again, I'd be up. The discord seems to be totally dead so I figure if anyone is still playing hop back on there and we can try again sometime tonight.

Jesus christ, this game is filled up to the brim with cheaters, it isn't even funny.

I unload two whole clips into someone in the water, point blank, and they didn't take a single point of damage. What?

[QUOTE=polarbear.;53132853]I unload two whole clips into someone in the water, point blank, and they didn't take a single point of damage. What?[/QUOTE] Yep, unfortunately water stops bullets dead in their tracks. Even crossbow bolts.

[QUOTE=Reagy;53132859]Yep, unfortunately water stops bullets dead in their tracks. Even crossbow bolts.[/QUOTE] I thought they updated it so it didn't?

[QUOTE=Hogie bear;53132981]I thought they updated it so it didn't?[/QUOTE] This game doesn't have any ballistic penetration at all, shooting at water is like shooting at a window or a wall. It stops it dead, there hasn't been an update yet that has added in functional ballistic penetration, so yeah, water still blocks bullets dead.

Doesn't water pretty much stop bullets dead in reality though?

They actually made water somewhat penetrable. Skip to 2:47 if timestamp doesn't work. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqGYUGI2r18&t=167[/media]

They weren't taking any damage even as they were getting out of the water. The other half of their body wasn't even submerged and I was unloading into it. I went back and watched the replay - Apparently in my perspective, the crosshair is right on their center of mass, but in the replay, I'm spraying at their feet. Got pretty annoying considering my buddy and I were in the top 5 left alive in duos. Pretty often I'm shooting at someone who is [I]standing perfectly still[/I] and none of the bullets register... I go back to the replay and I get the same issue - my crosshair in the replay seemed a bit off from my actual perspective. I'd refund this game if I could, but I've already nabbed 40 hours in the <2 weeks I've had it. Only once I've been killed by someone blatantly aimbotting, but the amount of bugs I'm experiencing with shooting are starting to kill the experience for me.

[QUOTE=polarbear.;53133911]Apparently in my perspective, the [B]crosshair[/B] is right on their center[/QUOTE] Hmm, if you're shooting at something more than half a block away, someone who can't shoot you back or, honestly, just shooting at all use ADS. Crosshair you can get away with.. CQC/checking corners/in-house battle at most, but anything other than that makes it a good way to empty the clip without putting out too much pressure.

I almost always use ADS. Kinda what's bugging me. Why on earth am I not hitting people when my sight is right on their head? Even at a distance where bullet drop isn't that noticeable, it should still hit their chest? Yet I manage to see sprays of blood when I spray my AR like a lunatic at moving cars in the distance. I don't get it. Maybe it's a client-side issue or something.

[QUOTE=polarbear.;53134565]I don't get it. Maybe it's a client-side issue or something.[/QUOTE] I've had that happen to me. :mystery: This is why a practice/shooting range session would help but hey blueballs don't think so.

If your client reports a hit then the server always awards it. It's why people can shoot you through buildings and shit.

[QUOTE=SataniX;53134687]how is it one of the most popular games in the world can't handle netcode 101[/QUOTE] "100 players on a single server" "too much load on servers for proper validation" I think it's just laziness at this point - I mean they made ue4 look AND feel (in terms of movement) like arma

Which is like the fucking worst thing in the world, games don't need to be this clunky.

Yeah, I uninstalled the game finally. Made some good cash off the leather hoodie though, so it's all good. Might give it another shot once they add another map and solve the hacking problems.

It seems to me what the player numbers start showing, the game is dying off. Not to the point where noone plays it but the hype has worn off and especially with Fortnite now being the first followup successor in the Battleroyale genre people start to notice how unfinished this game is. I still enjoy playing it occasionally but I really notice room for improvement, mostly in the performance bracket. But for me its the small things like not including an option to choose the map you want to play and the conditions. Speaking of which - removing fog from Erangel was one of the worst things they've done. The athmosphere was so intense because for all you know you could be running alongside someone 100m apart and not see him. You could watch enemies run around in fear because they could not make out where the shots came from, especially with a silencer. Really miss that. One of the things I do have to hand this game is that its one of the few games where Ive woken up in the morning and just the thought of playing it kept me excited thruought the day, thanks.

How do I know, you may ask? Here's an egregious object rendering bug that demonstrates this spectacularly [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/PUBATTLEGROUNDS/comments/7m3ijv/really_gamebreaking_rendering_distance_issue_this/[/url]

Shows how dedicated the devs are in making sure their game works properly [editline]16th February 2018[/editline] exactly, they're not.
