PLAYERUNKNOWNS BATTLEGROUNDS Early Access Thread: This Is Battle Royale

This is too intense. My heart was pounding too fast.

I started playing more aggressively lately, hunting down unsuspecting targets and going after the sound of gunshots. Made it to 9th place with 4 kills in my last game and top 30 with 3 on the game before.
 
Hell yes.

Won twice in Squad...IN A ROW.

First was with 4. Kind of. Friend got disconnected so it was my friend, a random, and I. Great stuff.

Second was just my friend who won with me prior, and then my friend who got disconnected.

WE EATING TONIGHT.
 
FINAL KILL

The calm I felt as I lined that asshole up... he had a KARK with at least a 4x scope, I had a SCAR with a holo. He was a good 30 yards at least... oh man, that chicken is tasty.

If I'm crouched and move around very slowly by tapping W repeatedly, my character is wobbling around and doesn't make any noise for me. Does that still make noise for everyone else around me?
 
For those having issues with knowing where shot sounds are coming from, the key is filtering out the shots landing noises that are loud and coming from nearby you. You have to listen for the quieter actual gunshot which will tell you which direction you are being shot at from and is quite accurate in my experience.

Honestly learning that was the biggest hurdle I had in getting the hang of this game. It's different than pretty much every other game so it was a weird thing to have to learn but once you get it the game is a lot easier.

Came in 2nd in Duo and then again in single player. It was a pretty good night.

I could smell that chicken dinner, but it still eludes me.

Just bought the game. Can't link my Twitch account. Pressing the button does nothing and I already change my default Browser from Chrome to IE (Edge). Help!
 
Game has been running pretty sweet since the last update, but my luck seems to be on a downward slide. Last match I dropped into nowhere, headed for a tunnel and was at the entrance within a minute of landing. Worked my way in, picking up some bits, then down a random section... boom, guy sat there with a shotgun. Ridiculous! :D

I sure regret opening my set right about now, I'm not even using any of it anymore lol. I should have taken a hint from the pre-order items.

I don't get it. Why is the unopened case so expensive when all of the pieces individually combined don't come out to even 1/4th that price?

Does the Twitch prime reward expire even though I claimed it when it came out on Twitch? I bought the game today and I thought I could get my stuff later.

Let me know if it works for you.

I wonder what the appeal is for those twitch crates. Unlike CSGO crates there is no chance to get an item that is worth more than the crate.

Hell there isn't even an opening animation.

People want rare shit, no matter what practical purpose it has.

I wouldn't be shocked if that price grows as it gets rarer though. Maybe not the insane £700 the Playerunkowns set goes for, but higher.

Just bought this won't play until tomorrow but I'll need some beginner friendly people to play with.

Hit me up on Steam if you want a few Duo / Squad games. I'm EU based, but if we're around at the same time then I'm more than happy to join up with another fellow beginner.

I picked this up over the weekend and I absolutely adore it so far. I've been playing a lot of duo with a friend and it just makes me feel like a big kid the whole time.

I linked my Twitch Prime account but never got the loot box :( Was there something else you had to do? Didn't expect these things to be that valuable.

So, I did open my twitch crate :/

Do you guys think I should sell them now or hold on to them ?

imo hold on, individual items have so low prices atm that if they never go up from that then what ever.

You needed to redeem that box on Twitch, clicking crown icon on top right.
 
Wait to sell for sure. Right now a lot of people are selling and there aren't a ton of new people that didn't have a chance to get the items if they really wanted them. If a few months there will be a lot of people who didn't have a chance to get the items when they were available and there will be fewer and fewer sellers.

You think the twitch items sell for crazy, the $40 limited edition items sell for like $200 each if not more at times 😰
