i dont bother personally. feels more consistent to spam left click like its an m16
If you have the compensator or a silencer then yeah, it's actually great at spraying. Without it don't bother.

Had a guy named "san1ty_st" wipe my whole squad out with a single clip. From another house, through a wall. I was in the bathroom, and suddenly I died, bullets were coming from below me, then everyone else just dropped.
Seeing people go on about cheaters pretty often lately. Did some new wave of douchebags enter the game or something?

not necessarily a cheat. if there was a loading error on his end its possible some of the houses had no walls for him. happens to me in like 1% of my games

There is a bug where some houses dont render for someone and they can shoot and kill you even though on your screen you are protected by walls.

It's the reason I will never play squads or duos with randoms.
I just wish they'd make the 2x more common so you at least have something to work with.

I'll take the 2x over the red dots and holos any day.

how does that change the fact that he wasnt necessarily cheating

Was there a weekly patch this week that I missed? If so, anyone got the patch notes?

Glitch or not, it's still cheating. Not saying the guy should get banned or anything but its a shitty thing to take advantage of.
please, tell me what etiquette dictates he should do. just pretend he cant see you? run away because he cant win the fight without being unfair? only shoot when hes totally sure youre not at all behind cover? thats so dumb

How about not being a shitcunt and restarting the game?
Fuck, that was hard to think of...

Why not just quit to the main menu?
Let's say I was playing CS:GO and a glitch happened and I could see everyone through the walls, should I just keep playing and win or quit to the main menu and go to another match?
Took me about 120 hours. I know the feeling.
keep playing but boot up obs and post the recording to r/globaloffensive so that theres any chance valve will actually do anything about it. im not gonna blame you for choosing to play with a graphical glitch rather than to take a 30 min or more ban for leaving a team and making your teammates play 4v5, ruining the game for 9 other people regardless.
the glitch in pubg affects like half a town at most when it happens and im not going to give up the last 20 minutes of looting because of a graphical glitch in an early access game, that would just be absolutely retarded for anyone to expect of me.
There is good in it. I got matched with a random duo partner who was screaming racial slurs into the microphone.
I acted normal and immediately teamkilled him once I got an assault rifle.
Please don't use that language.
And yes, if you start up a game and you can see people hovering midair where a building should be, you should restart rather than start killing them randomly.
except its not usually at the start of a game that it happens. ive only seen it in the mid to end game after ive already spent a considerable amount of time looting. if it did happen at the start, youd have no choice but to run because you cant loot anything.
im actually never going to give up a decently looted round because a game glitch helps me in one instance, nor do i blame someone who kills me in that way for pubg being in early access
Because I can't hold my breath indefinitely?
I tried playing after a break of a couple of days. I looted the spawn island, got a lot of decent stuff, finally got halfway back to the mainland, and the game froze.
It goes into a state where the audio doesn't play and you can't alt-tab. I don't know any way to recover it or reconnect so I just have to restart.

Oh man, I know it's passe at this point, but:
Closing in on 100 hours in game and this is my first win. I hadn't even played in like 2 weeks, had one round earlier tonight, then this one. Cleaned up at least 4 of the last 5, maybe 5 of the last six. First one shot on a UAZ driver Roger Murtagh style.
And whew, best decision to hold onto an S12K ever. I was so close to freaking out when I held right click on this last guy right here and the first shot hit the door frame instead of when I was aiming because of the range.

Nah I think it's great. I love it when people post their very first chicken dinner and the story that goes with it.
I hope to get there one day :')

because if that happens you can always leave the game. he chose to play with the bugged advantage.

I'm missing this game so hard. I've gotten like 3 good full games in as many weeks.
My newborn has a tendency to start crying as soon as I jump into a game.

Well then, I'll share my first solo dinner here too.

Home sick, so I did what I always do: nap until I'm not tired, then play video games. Figured I'd do some PUBG while loopy on DayQuil. I knew I'd be out of it so I kept going intentionally mild. Then I shifted to spicy just to get runs over with. I dropped on the Sosnovka C, usually a very busy cluster, yet I drew no fire. Then it was just hopping vehicles and hiding in buildings. I somehow circumvented almost everyone, and didn't engage those who did show up, so at the end I guess I had an angle nobody expected.
I think the puff in that clip was the only damage I did to anyone that entire run. And it didn't even kill him.

I am going to side with the guy who says to keep playing. The one time it happened to me, there were like ten people left and the final circle moved me into a town where the buildings had not spawned/loaded. I'm twenty five minutes into a game, and I have a chance to win. I am not going to hand someone else a victory because of a bug that I did not cause.
By the way, I won that game I was talking about. It was the least satisfying of any of my wins, but you better believe that I would do the exact same thing if the opportunity arises again.

Everyone should always post their chicken and no one should ever feel bad about posting chicken.
like i get almost everyone in this thread is a saint who are willing to sacrifice their own fun and that of their squadmates, but not everyone can be so selfless and honestly i just dont care that much about mildly annoying a few strangers if it means me and my friends are less annoyed. maybe that makes me a villain, maybe im going to hell for it, but im not going to pretend to be ashamed of shooting one or two dudes through a wall because the game didnt load right.

Played like 10 games tonight, ended up either 10-13 every single game. Super frustrating.

It's honestly worse seeing someone so hung up on people going along with bugs on an Early Access title instead of wasting their limited time.
It's the game's fault for bugging out not the players who uses the opportunity. It's different when the bug is easily replicable or you find a way inside the world geometry. But if the game decides to stop rendering houses or walls for you after 20 odd minutes i don't blame anybody who decides to use it to their advantage. If anything dying to a bug like that is understandable to me, unlike shit where the dudes take cover in water so that their heads are the only thing popping out while they shoot the shit out of you. Because like we all know bullets cannot penetrate even an inch of water.

I think i've posted in this thread maybe 6 times total, and on this forum in the last year probably 20. Getting hung up on nonsense in games or this ridiculous place is far too taxing for my age, but to play along: an early access game with limited stats, a temporary leaderboard, and useless loot is not really that rough on a person with limited time (much like myself). Besides, you guys seem to have missed my point.
I was mainly talking about people who can replicate it, which is a thing with this particular bug. I've never witnessed this bug myself (the only one I get is crashing on the main menu) but I have two friends who get it frequently, and we just dip out. Takes 3 minutes to start over and what do we miss out on? Another red t-shirt?
look guys, i'm not really disturbed by a bug in a video game, so we can all go back to posting wins and bitching about poor tick-rate servers.
Then the fourth of your posting this year on this site has been dedicated to this particular thing that bugs you so much. We didn't miss your point at all, by the way, you were rather explicit: the guy's a turd nugget for not exiting the game and jumping out of the window the second the game's beta randomly bugged out on him allowing him to see through walls.
