PLAYERUNKNOWNS BATTLEGROUNDS Early Access Thread: This Is Battle Royale

I'm confused more:

My Solo games don't lag out/start off too bad.
My Squad games? Total shitshow. I won't even fully load in until my squad has dropped usually

Jesus, why the fuck do I have 20 fps in gunfights suddenly and otherwise between 40-50 fps when just walking around? The playing experience is legit trash atm. Count in the horrible server lags and it is literally unplayable.

I was having horredndous frame drops earlier, it was awful.
 
Is there a way to get it so that I don't have to tap to ADS? This is only a problem for me in the first person servers. I am so used to just holding down RMB to aim down sights, it being a toggle is seriously messing with me here.
 
First two FPP games:

-Aggressively breach a house and gun down the guy inside in a way I'd never do before, spend several minutes VSSing a guy across the road, eventually get sick of it as people keep driving past honking, I run over, shoot a guy running out of a house... then enter the house my VSS friend was in and hahaha whoops, the guy I killed was a different one, he was still there and he seemed mad.

-Land Pochinki, have a crazy three way shootout killing a guy crossing street towards me, peeking fights with the guy inside the house, I eventually shoot him when he pops out of the balcony. I run for the circle, try to head towards shots but it's too far out of the way (and then a shot whizzes past my head, intentional or not), I make it to a bike and run over a guy who tried to pop out from behind a tree (it didn't give me the kill though, it counted it as him dying of fall damage), then switch to a UAZ and me and a buggy start honking as we brave the bridge trolls (I didn't make it, he did)

God damn it, opened a wanderer crate and got blue hi-top trainers, sold them for 8€ an though I'll get more luck, so I bought a couple of keys and opened some gamescom crate and a couple of wanderer crates. Got nothing worthy :(

I'll stop there.

check the stuff you got from the gamescom crates in a week when you can sell them, could be worth more than you think with a bit of luck

my friends are trying to play 1pp duo but the servers isn't teaming them together anymore but still puts them together in the same game xD

servers are cooked
 
How's the crate system work now? I saw the patch notes but didn't really get an idea how it works. If there are keys how much do they cost? Are all the crates purchasable with money or BP?

Two FPP games so far:

First one was cool. Everything worked fine. Got a kill and got killed. Spectated my friend and framerate tanked to 30FPS making me nauseous.

Next round. We didn't see each other nametags so we quit.

The round after that we met up in the lobby (still no nametag) and thought it might be there when the game starts. Nope, nothing. We jump over Pochinki, looten and stuff, when he tries to make his way to me. He gets shot and I get the message "Better luch next time!" and didn't even die. Decided to not bother for today.

Which is a shame. Other than the wobbleness of the first person mode it seems great.

I told my friends for the past week to save up their points for these new crates, none of them listened to me. Now I sit here with 14€ that I got for doing nothing but play a fun game and they could just buy like 1 each. :D

And I don't care about cosmetics at all in this game, so being able to sell crates is great.

Maybe the default pov is too narrow, or maybe it's the awful stuttering, but my first round in first person left me slightly nauseated. That hasn't happened in years.

The max, 103, is what feels best to me. I think the problem is that it feels like you are too short.

Okay I managed to get in. Servers feeling crazy laggy though for me - is this the same for everyone else? Feels like the door opening delay from the early versions is back, there's a good 1+ seconds for it to respond to pressing F.
