Does everyone else get what I'd describe as asset load hitching? My game micro freezes quite often, and every time I open the inventory.
 
Why is there any onus whatsoever on how other people are playing their game to how someone decides to make a living? If a stream sniper made a living on honking their horn instead, why is that person's means of living superseding the other? Do you actually see it possible that there be a distinction between making a joke out of the situation versus preventing somebody making a living, or does the issue not extend any further as far as taking ownership in how people are allowed to engage with a game?

Your argument is invalid since steaming sniping is against the TOS

The inventory freezing seems to be tied to shadow quality. Try turning that down. I have it set to low and it doesn't happen anymore for me.

Crate items have a 1 week wait period before you can sell them

You wont see it as a sellable item until that week period is up
Thanks bud
 
Are these Gamescom crate prices going to skyrocket soon after the event ends? I opened one and got literally the most common item you could get from one. Definitely going to hold on to the next one I get.

Well the value can't go down! I'm holding all of my Gamescom items and crates for at least a few months. I'm sure someone down the road will pay a lot for my yellow track suit!.

I like both equally, but i think if i had to keep only one i would keep the 3rd person view.

Maybe because my fps is significantly lower on 1st person.

edit: Lol. two people at the end and one died from being out of playzone. that's how someone got chicken dinner.

After the 3rd or so circle you absolutely want to keep your time in the blue to an absolute minimum.

I don't care what people prefer, I play both and enjoy both, I just wish people wouldn't be smug assholes about their preference. It's pretty annoying to hear opinions carbon copied from certain streamers and then restated like fact.

yeah i play whatever the party wants to plays, i figure it's best to not really have a preference which is how i treat everything when it comes to this game.

Give me your m16, your umps, your shotguns. I'll make it work.

Sadly it happens even on very low preset when I'm getting 144fps, it'll drop down to around 70fps. But it's more the fact it freezes.

Man wish I had a stronger pc to run this.

Only have a i3-6100, 8gb, and 1050ti and I'm getting <45fps with everything low but view distance
 
The Gamescom crates will end in a few days, but does anyone know if they're actually going to disappear? I'm wondering if they'll still be there and open-able, just not obtainable beyond trading/market.

They'll still exist in your inventory and can still be bought and sold on the marketplace, and you will always be able to buy keys for them, but you will no longer be able to get them in-game.

Last 5 matches I played I have no clue where I was shot from. It's not unfair or anything, it just feels a bit random to suddenly die out of nowhere. It's like my character might as well have gotten struck by lightning or had a heart attack, and the match is over. Still looking forward to playing more though.

Do you get BP for first person duo nowadays?

This is part of why I enjoy Duo//Squad more, your teammate can get you back up or respond to the attack.
 
How to avoid stream snipers: don't let anyone see your screen when you're on the main menu and wait a little bit before queuing so they can't time you. That's how Starcraft players used to do it.

I doubt anyone is copying opinions from streamers. I know I don't because I don't watch PUBG streams. Willing to bet my reasons are still the same though.

What's wrong with spazzing around?
It's not big of a deal, but I just feel like it looks silly. I do it myself as well of course, but ever since I've since playing DayZ I've hated it. Arma 3 doesn't really have it that much, but that does come at the cost of mobility which I don't think fits this game.

this game can literally go suck a dick now. Got my first chicken dinner, but didnt get the points for it and didnt add to my stats!!

It seems if my game crashes and i have to rejoin a round that i dont get any points added to my balance when i return to the menu

Okay, so this excuse from Bluehole as to why they haven't brought FPP to OCE is absolutely fucking petite and really comes across as a big fuck you to their playerbase.

Saying that we don't have the numbers to support two seperate modes is fucked up. So what, we can't have gameplay equality because it might hurt queue numbers despite queues being perfectly fine? Obviously they've got the most accurate data at hand but for me I can join a game at 3am in the morning on a weekday and be matched and ready to play in two minutes max including the countdown. How is that a position your development team should be taking?

Seriously, fuck that. We are having to force ourselves into high ping servers just to enjoy a better game mode because they can't be bothered actually being equal in game modes no matter the region. Really pisses me off how OCE gets treated in gaming.

tbf over in NA we get matched in 5 seconds, and then it takes 30-60 seconds to pass the countdown(Sometimes getting in lobbies where the timers already been counting down and is at 30 seconds).

So if it takes a minute to get matched in, chances are there is a population issue over there that would become worse with FPP servers.

Sorry I meant two minutes max on the plane loading up, not a minute or two on hitting the play button and waiting for a match.

In that case i wonder if it's worth keeping hold of these last 2 i have instead of selling them on the steam market for £4.
