That would totally tilt the feel of the game. Also the play field.

EG had a talk with PU
While all these games may seem similar on the surface, Greene insists that they can coexist. "When I started this I wasn't intending on copying Arma 3 and I wasn't intending on copying H1Z1," he says. "People say to me 'Oh you're a H1 killer', and it's like, no we're not, you know it's like we're different game modes. Ours is a little slower, a little bit more tactical, we emphasise decision-making. H1's a little bit more arcadey on all the kills, and Arma 3 is much more simulation. It's a slower, very tactical, very simulated game and we want to kind of go in the centre.
"I went to Korea this time last year and even the producer said, 'We're going to do it in a year.' " Greene flashes a playful grin and continues: "I was like hmm, at the start. I was like, 'Really?! A year?!' But you know, the team is phenomenal. They put in super long hours, like 14-hour days and are really committed to making it good. It's kind of Bluehole's philosophy to make well-made games and it shows. And you know, people are saying to us, 'Six months in Early Access? Yeah right!' and I can tell you, in six months time we will have a pretty much finished game."

Yeah. I ran it fine on a 6600k, 8gb ram and a rx 470 / 8gb.
"Fine" means constantly between 35 and 55 fps on high details
What the hell's going on in here. I don't think this game is for you guys. PUBG is all about that tension and those silent moment for that bigger impact when you finally meet other survivors.
Won my first game in Duo - had an SKS with a 4X and a suppressor. It's just so. much. fun. playing with a suppressor and players not knowing where the hell they are getting shot at.
My heart was pumping like crazy when there were only 3 players left and I knew I had to take out a team to win. I was incredibly lucky with my positioning and got the upper hand.
Got #2 in a squad game yesterday. Sadly it was me against a squad of 3 in the end and they just split up and cycled around me until they found out where I was while I only had a vague idea where one of them was.
The end game is so unbelievably tense. It just sucks a bit that I make it there so seldom that I don't really know what tactic to use when I make it there.

Nah, it's in a post soviet setting, why wouldn't there be a tank. Maybe airlift it in even, like a crate. Slow ass russian tank, 1 seat, can't outrun a circle but packs a punch. you are hiding in the bushes with a ghillie suit and tank is approaching, knowing if they spot you, you're made. heart rate 170.
some guy is sneaking up to the tank to disable it, you have a clear shot but won't take it as he's about to disable the tank, you wait on the other guy and get shot from behind.
Or maybe motars, since there are already bombing runs, user created ones could be interesting.
Like I'm not looking for more action, just more tension.
I might even do that mod myself.

I'm really into this game never played Arma or BR games but it's so fun and addicting.
My problem is i often get to Top 10 and then not get my chicken. Won only 3 games and like 30 Top 10s. I also love the UZI so fun surprise players and mow them down in a second.
Also when i get surprised from behind or far away i get so shocked sometimes. The adrenalin i get in the Top 10 is something i rarely get in games.
Servers, optimization and sound(mostly footsteps) need improvement. But that's their focus anyway. On it's way to a masterpiece multiplayer game pls don't fuck it up.

Any news about the fixed patch?
So, the idea is to give the players a giant, noisy, slow, solo vehicle which can be disabled and in the long run it's unplayable on most of the map and also gives no actual perks for duos, squads and it's also almost impossible to get as a solo.
Seems about right

Don't listen to them! They will betray you! run now!
Dude please. Check the game below. That might be what you want.

Thanks, finally someone who understands me. No seriously, a tank that fits the theme of the game, not a bf kind of tank. Obviously that genre is still very young and untapped so there is nothing really comparable. I think it could be fun/tactical element if done right. For teams, they could use it as a 'honey pot' where 1 drives/calls out enemies and the others pick them off. Or if you see a tank, is a team hiding in the area or is that the lone survivor etc.
I also think it would be fun to have C4 and prep a crate
Yep. I'm not even from the US but I'd rather have a US map based in some small island or peninsula or something with mostly fields, some suburban areas and one small bit of a city with taller buildings? with maybe, as you said, some large indoors area like a strip mall and a few other buildings nearby.
Gosh... if only.
BTW, I just finished a game with my best score until now, #4, the play area was sooooo small! Damn this can get quite hectic.
I mean you could just go play ArmA 3?

Has desync been worse than ever for everyone lately?
I've been experiencing instant takedowns in duos, no downed state at all, just instantly being killed. A lot of firefights that we clearly have the advantage in we keep losing because it's like the server interprets us being out of cover for longer than we actually are, meaning we'll take cover again and then inexplicably die despite not being exposed.
Hope they can get it in order, it's always had some connectivity issues but it's never seemed this bad.

Haha I wish. Had to do a refund as my machine was at its utmost limit trying to run the game. Had everything set to very low and it still was a lag/freeze fest. Oh well, that just means I have another reason to take the plunge and upgrade my machine and hopefully play this game some time down the road.
I believe they had that issue fixed in the update that they had to rollback.

I hated h1z1 and love PUBG.
I'm a huge fan of Arma.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
I think people are mostly using tweaks described in this guide
It's not pretty but it got me a stable, high framerate on my i5 and 770
LoL, I ended up going to the house with other random player. Only weapon in the house was a sickle and I got it first.
Then I started chasing him with a sickle, the chase lasted for a solid 10 mins.
Finally he found a car, while he was trying to open car door I sliced his face 3 times and blood splattered everywhere.
Then he drove off. Dammit! I wanted that kill. I'm not sure was it lag or are the melee weapons in this game really weak?.

Ugh, I got the highest I have ever gotten at rank 9, but died because I underestimated how fast the zone shrinks and how much damage it does.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
I died to zone damage yesterday when there was only two people left. Had a good run too, 5 or 6 kills.
They are not that great, but lag also interferes
%50 for a hit to land from my experience
That last circles are crazy, they'll shift hard, move fast, and sting like the dickens
Also keep in mind that melee weapons deal extra damage when hitting to head.
Gamepad is not optimal for this kind of precision game, at all.
Well it is coming to console, but to be fair it wont have cross play so it'll be more balanced on their end.

Bought this today because of all the positive hype and I like a battle royale, started it up, changed the settings to fullscreen rather than fullscreen windowed.
Now the resolution is all fucked up and I cant press any of the buttons (technically I can but the actual buttons are displaced from clickable space).
So I cant access the options menu to change it to fullscreen again.
EARLY ACCESS FUCK YEAH

Try hitting alt+enter to adjust it and see if you can then?

Might work: Right click on the game in your library and go to properties, set launch options and paste -borderless -resx=1920 -resy=1080

Thanks. Alt+Enter ended up working but trying to fullscreen just has the same problem again.
I'll just deal with windowed for now.
Some people have crash issues when they use fullscreen in this game. Windowed Fullscreen is currently the best option.
nooooo trying to save money but looks so good
