I didn't want to do that for 3 minutes straight. I was more impressed that someone would have been able to see what direction I was going from that far away, and wait on the beach that long when they're the only one in the city far outside the circle.

I know I'm maybe annoying with this stuff, but more people are playing PUBG than Dota at this moment... Never thought I see the day a game "beats" Dota

Lol, I do read them... That number is just so high cause I don't click on every unimportant mail and it stacks up every time new mails come in...
I mark them all as read later when I am on my PC
Ugh, just lost another #2, like the fourth in a week.
I knew where the guy was, it was the very very final circle before it all goes blue, we were both prone in grass, but I only had a UMP.
I was so tense I accidentally fired a couple of shots off. I then had to unprone and rush, and of course died.

I just started this game today. My fourth match, I got my way to #2. The game is way overhyped, imo, but still fun.
You should play with me if you're winning too easily.
I'm not convinced "overhyped" is a useful term to discuss most anything since it's hard for me to imagine a precise measurement of the exactly appropriate hypeness for any given thing.

Overblown then?
Play with a friend, Duos >>>>>> Solo
Squads are great too, but generally the fun in squads comes from comedy more than the game itself

I mean it's super fine if the game doesn't click for you, cause no game can be for everyone.
But, this kind of success doesn't work only on hype.
People, including me I must admit, really like this game cause it's great fun.
One thing you should try before tossing it is playing with friends in a squad tho. I don't play solo at all, don't like it. But in a duo or squad with friends I have the time of my life. Which is crazy cause I don't especially like shooters or multi player games...
So for me it's a genuine phenomenon

I've had the game less than 24 hours.
People made the winner winner chicken dinner sound difficult. I only saw a hand full of dudes.

Oh, please don't misunderstand me. I do like the game. Just not as big as a fan as others. Still a very neat premise.
I'm telling you, try playing with me. I'll show you difficult.I've had the game less than 24 hours.

I've won the game ONCE out of 124 hours played. I really want to see how the people operate who consistently get top 5 or whatever, since maybe once in that timeframe I've seen a player of that skill level as a teammate.I've ended up top 3 in solo/duo 5 different times in the last week though.

I'm really not trying to brag. I'm not a very skilled multiplayer gamer. I'm ok. Timing and patience are my friends.I'm telling you, try playing with me. I'll show you difficult.

As far as my Solo strategy, I try to land somewhere alone that had 2+ buildings to raid. Hopefully I can get a shotgun and assault/smg.
Then I make my way to the center of the circle. Nothing exciting. Just check out my surroundings and move carefully. Sometimes I'll find a car, exit itband the stake out the car and kill people that try and take it.
Also, proning works.

This triggers me. I just...just please screenshot. I'm having flashbacks.
Also, what the hell is happening here. Reshade potentially being blocked or some shit?
The boxes are now no longer able to be purchased in game correct? Or end today? Hopefully those go up soon then....

BattlEye at random blocks it, yes. It is intended, but isn't as devs have green listed it as okay thing to use.
Just restart game time or two and BattlEye will let it run. It's weird like that.
So, so weird. Was worried it was ReShade or something.
Or sent fruit basket to people at Bluehole and keep taking 30% off of the top for insane income.

BattleEye is really fickle. Sometimes RTSS gets blocked when the vast majority of the time it doesn't.

I've put about 70 hours into the game and have never won solo/duo. Many squad wins, however (only because they carry me).
Incredible. LOL!

It randomly blocks Afterburner for me too. Right now it's working. So weird.
Any Reshade guides? Must have missed it!

Had my first round, too and made the 5th place...Without finding any weapons, haha. I basically just ran for the white circle and crouched around, hiding and praying.
The first few games are always easy / easier to win (won my first 3 games after the rank reset). Once you get higher rating, the difficulty of games ramp up, players are a lot better at the game.
Yup, and if you're trying to maximize wins it encourages spreading your playing time across all the servers so you don't get screwed over as badly by the skill based matchmaking.
Got a great kill on a driver,but couldn't get this guy at the bottom of the stairs. Sometimes the shooting vs movement is really off.

Thanks! Will give it a shot later.
I know they made the SCAR rarer maybe a month or so ago. You probably just got unlucky with some bad RNG. Finding at least 1 decent AR usually isn't too hard.

I've played 10 matches or so and I haven't killed anybody yet. It's so hard!
