You on an SSD? My wife had that issue until I upgraded her to an SSD and she only has 4GB of DDR3.
Also, sometimes the inventory freeze is just server lag.
Well, the very first games will be unranked, so you could be matched against the best in the game. After a few days go by it should start to get back to normal.
A lot of you have been asking about the FOV range in 1st person view, so here is a comparison of min/max FOV coming in our monthly update...

Is First person view going to be split from the third person view, like different game modes? I wonder which one will be more popular, first person view should be much more immersive in a game like this
Third person is almost certainly going to stay on top, simply because it's easier and more accessible.

I swear they mentioned in the last update that silencers could now drop in crates, I've gotten plenty of crates and never seen one! Anyone seen one?
Third Person and First Person queues will be separated, you can pick either or.
TP que will stay as top dog because it's more accessible and welcoming for more casual and/or new player of the game. FP will be more demanding and hardcore experience, which will have its own yet smaller audience than TP que.
Some big BG streamers like Summit and Sacriel have said they would go all in on first person only queues.
I also expect first person only to be go-to mode for tournaments / eSports scene.
Well, there it is. I'll probably never hit a better Kar98 shot than this - https://streamable.com/knrt0
I've admittedly never gotten to a crate and survived long enough to loot it.
But the last 10 games or so I'm seeing a massive increase in random drops of silencers
As a BF player I can tell you that something does feel off
I turned off mouse acceleration and smoothing in the windows system settings and the game settings (config file edit) and it made a big difference
I would also suggest setting your ADS sensitivity much lower in the game settings
I think I set my 4x to 40% and my 8x to 30% sensitivity

Every Kar98k kill is the most satisfying shit. It's an addiction.

Had a glorious squad game last night where I superpunched my teammate to death while we were both fighting an unarmed opponent.
My only decent Kar98 shots were all in squads so they feel very underwhelming as I often can't kill the person after downing them.

Yeah I had like 4 headshots in a squad match and ended the game with 0 kills. Feels bad.

So are statistics just completely broken or something?
I've been winning games non-stop the last couple of days. Getting insane numbers of kills, too.
That shit is not reflected at all in my statistics and it's kind of bothering me. No, my highest number of kills in Squad NA isn't 4. It's 12. It's been 12 for several days now. I have more than 3 wins in Squad. I have more than 3 wins in the last two fucking days of playing Squads.

They turned off ranked scoring for the rest of the month (and maybe longer)
People are blasted that the game is still in beta and early access, but they are already charging money for shit
I personally dont care
Cosmetics are the purest form of in game micro-transactions

paid crate keys are a fucking cancer afaic
they're singlehandedly the reason I don't play Rocket League anymore, on principle
I'd give more of a shit re: PUBG's implementation if I hadn't already redeemed 50 free crates worth of 10 individual trash items and then 40 repeats
it's harder for me to give a shit about loot in PUBG because it all sucks

The cosmetics in this game are so throwaway that I find it really hard to care about them.
Aah, okay. So it's a principle kind of thing, i.e. implementing micros while still in EA. Gotcha - thanks.

It's not that they're charging money (completely), it's that the devs said multiple times in the beginning "We don't do anything paid to the game before it comes out of early access." and then they did anyway.
It's more specific to this dev that people are pissed about it, versus just the early access/paid features idea.
He actually plays solo fairly similar to the way Viss/Break/Chappie play. Fairly conservative in the beginning; doesn't tank circle damage like the aforementioned do but the interesting thing from watching his stream is he nearly entirely avoids towns, and even when he gets looted he'll play edge through the first few big circles. I might give that style a shot when the stats reset.

Yeah the network sync one is huge. Like, currently I have an issue where if I alt look around me, then let go of alt, my game will get network lag just because the camera turns too fast lol

How do you turn it off in the game config?
It seems to differ wildly between users. I have crashed maybe a couple of times in 500 hours of playing and other people crash every other game.

Just had my first round. Landed in a small compound of two buildings with one player nearby. I ran inside the building looking around for stuff, and found a sickle on my way to the roof. I had a look around and saw that the player spotted me and they had an AR, so I just had to wait it out on the roof for them to go up the stairs and hope they weren't prepared. I managed to ambush them and get a kill with two hits, so I was quite happy with that.
I then proceeded to look for a vehicle, and ended up running for aaagess and found absolutely nothing, until I got shot at then run over. I was okay with this because I was just running like a maniac down the road trying to get the the play area in time. Apparently I had more time than I thought because another player took the time to shoot at me?
Round two!

LOL so either you:
a) Play on Asia servers with the ping advantage and then complain about Asian players doing the same.
b) Never played on Asia servers and wanted to shit on them even though you've never played there.
You're a real piece of work, dude. Why do you hate Chinese so much?
Or maybe you're just a salty asshole who's letting their racism show. Gotta blame someone else for your incompetence.

Round two:
Found a pistol eventually, and just figured I would camp out for a while as I was near enough in the middle. Waited until 33 left or so, then thought I should head inward a bit more... there was someone downstairs with a SCAR-L either doing the exact same thing, or just turned up. >_>
I can see this game being quite fun.
Is anyone using gamepad? I'd rather avoid KBM if possible but it seems like the sort of game that is built for KBM.

Even my most gamepad heavy friends gave up trying and opted for KBM instead. I think you can do it, I just don't know that it's viable.
