Went better than my first time on a vehicle. I was too used to H1Z1 where you could just hop out of a moving vehicle. Tried that in PUBG and just laughed at the result.
Yes. There's a reason it's already #3 on Steam.
Yeah, I think it should automatically place the attachments in your bag.
Look at this and decide for yourself. Also, can always buy it and return if it's not your thing.

I wish there was a team text chat in squad mode. It's frustrating when you get paired with random players who don't have a mic.

I really want to try first person mode 
oops.
I've played 3 squad rounds with randoms and no mic, and no teamkills for now which is weird. We ended up #4.
Personally I got over it after about 10 games and it is still funner to watch than play; though that is mostly because of the torrid sync lag I experience.

My second time playing I got into those custom servers, it was first person only, and no guns anywhere, I don't know if the streamer was playing a the most dangerous game roleplay or was just having fun.

I bought this game a few days ago but had to go out of town before I had a chance to play it.
Came back early today to play a my first round. Took #9th and got three kills. I'm gonna be riding this high for the rest of the day.

The cheating is starting to ruin this game for me. Was just top 10, snuck up behind a dude, nailed him with 2 double barrel blasts from ten feet away. He didn't die, but i was able to get behind cover of a jeep. He spun and oneshotted me through the vehicle with an awm.
Now i know the awm is powerful but he literally just turned and fired through the vehicle. I had lvl 3 armor and head. My shotty had a choke and i nailed him dead center.
Hopefully the ps4 version of this game is good. I now remember why i quit playing competitive shooters on pc.
Ohh, and something hilarious. I got one shotted by a ak while my vehicle was flipping through the air and i had lvl3 helmet yesterday. #justbgcheaterthings

Lol yes, its insanely easy to cheat aparently. 1 google search and i got a whole page of script kiddy bullshit. Some type of ping cheat too which sounds ridiculous but has been rampant since like the day early access started. I don't really understand how it works but it seems some of the "lag" isn't shitty servers its people using some kind of cheat.
Basically since it is UE4 any cheat that works for other ue4 game will likely work for battlegrounds.

Dota 2 and ARK being that high invalidates that.
Edit: love this game though

happens to me all the time. I don't think you got one-shotted by an AK, I think the damage from whatever sent your vehicle flying applied to you late.

This is the first game that I've actively played with Gaffers for more than a round or 2. Should have been doing it for years. Lots of good people in the discord.

Whenever you think you're getting 1-shot by any non-single shot weapon you're probably getting hit multiple times instantly from your point of view. The netcode/tickrate in this game is absolutely horrible. I just got headshot by a kar98 over a second after ducking back behind cover. It was a wall and I was on high ground so there was no shot from his view once I was behind the wall.
Another example is the only time I ever hear an AR on full auto is when I fire it myself. Anybody else goes full auto? sounds like tap fire.

Yeah, I haven't run into any obvious cheaters yet in 200+ hours.

As the numbers drop holy cow the heart rate goes up. First win and this felt so good. The final circle felt like the size of a quarter. Hid in a bush and let 5 or six guys battle each other and then finished off the last one.
So I had a moment were I fired at a dude when I shouldn't have but it turned out way better than I ever thought it would. (Sorry about the audio de-sync. Blame Nvidia.)

Wasn't really gonna share but I want to send it a friend and I may as well share here. This game is phenomenal. It took a few hours for the hesitation to hit the play button to go away but now the rush is absolutely addicting. It's like a goddamn drug. I have to hit play. I have to have a firefight with a couple of people. I have to PvP sneak. Outsmarting and getting outsmarted is such a thrill. I'm slowly recruiting more people. Already got my girlfriend lined up and a couple of her friends and one of mine. Time for squad battles!

I kept waiting for the big moment. I don't get it. That kind of thing happens every match.
You killed the fun.

Just got the game, anyone got some tips? Also how often do you guys ads in first person? It seems slow to me having to double tap the right mouse.

Double tap?
I just tap it once. It's integral, especially once you're scoped out.

Man, I would have fucked up using an ACOG at that range and full auto.
(Speaking of which, I have seen videos of good players firing controlled bursts of UMP at long distance with just holding down RMB to aim and it's actually astonishing how accurate it can be at ranges you would not think it would be)
Depends how far you are , but ADS is usually always way more accurate.
Except pistols , although im unsure if they fixed that yet. (They are/were bugged where the 2nd shot if firing quick was WAY off / high)
And its just one click , not two
Honestly my best tips for newbies would be : Shotguns are awesome with a choke and youd be surprised how far they go
and SMG's are just beast close quarters - if youre going close quarters id recommend an SMG over an AR anyday currently. Especially an UMP / Vektor full auto.
I.e dont pick up two AR's , secondary should be something for close quaters , or a sniper if you can find one ( and the kar98k is miles better than the sks )
ill finally have some time to play tomorrow , that is if we dont get more water and get flooded (Pray for MTL)
We shall get chicken dinners tomorrow boys
Not sure why you want the game to get toxic?
Oh, I meant, you are right, you lose the attachments if you switch your weapon out with another. I'm just saying, that I would like for the attachments to be put back into your back if you decide to switch out the weapon, instead of having to fumble with detaching and attaching the mods again.

You can just click it once (quickly press and release, not hold). You only need to double tap if you want it to be a hold action.
Tip: Learn all controls/actions you can do. Stuff like switching what vehicle seat you're in with ctrl+# or being able to sprint while crouching aren't readily apparent.

By one less sale, you mean of any online competitive shooter on PC, right? That's a pity.
