I mean, I haven't heard anything about it and yet the people that bring it up make it sound like a sure fire deal. Thus I just wanted to post about by skepticism.

In the market.
Most of the common stuff isn't worth selling, but anything 'big' seems to fetch a decent price.
Which reminds me... I should get TF2 installed again. Selling TF2 crap funded my Winter Sale purchases!
yeah he is using a HDD for the game, as do all of my friends playing the game. He's the only one with those issues though.

I have a 20% off voucher in my email that expires today for it. Was considering purchasing it, but I really can't justify the price of the game, even discounted to $24. Do you want it?

That's not really an official confirmation from the studio it's just an employee saying something on the side, not to mention saying "We have the game running on Xbox One" is incredibly vague.

What about this weeks update?
I'm guessing there's nothing since they were all on holiday the previous week.
I've made 5$ in 90h!
I bet if he checks his disk usage when it occurs the usage is sat at 100%? This is the issue my friends are having.
plane on the west side of the map -> land near the coast -> find boat -> south island containers
If you want to be really cheesy, and the plane drops you off on the North-East side, you can use the boats to get to the starting island. You can't find anything but guns there, but there are a lot of them, because people don't generally explore the full island to pick up all the guns.
There is guns, armor, meds and weapon attachments there. Not just guns.
Any time the circle ends up over the military base and you have to cross a bridge. We use them then, because fuck squads camping the bridges trying to be Lirik fanboys (I know people have been doing this before Lirik
).But yeah, fuck bridge campers.
Headphone dont help a terrible amount i find, i hope they do some more on the audio for this game as it is total off at the moment
They've already fixed this.
I know about this map.
Is it a voucher only for Battlegrounds or does it work for Cod: WWII?

With an extended mag it is probably the best close range weapon in the game short of sneaking up behind somebody and hitting them over the head with a frying pan. Very high RoF, very little spread under, oh, say, 10-15m.
The UMP on the other hand seems to have more range and after the blanket assault rifle nerf is a viable replacement for close/medium range. I like running UMP+Kar98/SKS/AKM. Seems a lot easier to get an SMG suppressor than an AR suppressor as well. Allows for stealthy close/midrange play while still being able to pop heads at a distance with your sniping weapon.
My computer was broken for two weeks, and watching Aculite put out a new video everyday was torture yet relief at the same time

What was the fix? is there a set distance for grass now?

Looks like it's applicable to Battlegrounds, COD, and Strafe.
The foliage is the same on every quality now, and since you can't fuck around in the .ini files anymore it means that everybody should see the grass the same.
Came 2nd - best result ever for me. Was on the back foot all along with only a pistol, no backpack and outside of the circle from the start. Managed to find be a buggy which I parked up just inside the circle and hid nearby. Someone came along and I killed them, and they had some decent gear. Last couple of circles were focused on a cornfield with just hay bales for cover. Last circle I was outside so had to run for it but the other guy had a rifle. Was a rush.

For a game like this that's good to know
Yes. Lets you have a pretty good gauge for whether or not the grass is helping hide you at a distance as well.
Keep in mind that smoke grenade smoke also renders at the same distance as grass, if you intend to use them for cover.
Also bushes are a good place to hide, but just know you aren't 100% covered in them.
We were at a couple houses yesterday and started getting shot at, we finally found the guy who was hiding in a bush and killed him. He just got downed so we assumed he had a friend nearby, but couldn't find him. My buddy went to go loot the guy we killed eventually, but his remaining teammate was hiding in a big bush right next to him the entire time and nailed my friend before we could kill him lol

Welp, bought the game today and I've been playing for 3 hours. Won both a solo and duo so far! Liking this game a lot. Much better than H1Z1. And performance is great.
Bought the game yesterday and I just made it to #2 on solo. So close! There was just the three of us and had one of them on my sights, not shooting in order not to give away my position to the third man. The number of people left alive was flashing red though (?), so I assumed it could mean the third guy may have been knocked out and about to die, and just in case and before the guy I was aiming at decided to move I killed him. Offed him but it wasn't the best decision for the expected reasons.

On solo if you lose all your HP, you die instantly. There is no knockout period because there is no one to revive you.
I don't know why it would be flashing red though.
Honestly I think it will be easy enough to recoup the cost of the game. I played it for 8 hours and already got a jacket that sold for 5$. Crates are easy enough to get, and while of course the results are entirely luck based, of you get crates when new items are introduced, even the most common drops from it should get you a dollar in the first couple of days of that crate. And if you have friends interested on playing the game but don't have it, you can family share with them and ask them to send the items they get back to you as a sort of fee, which will make the recouping of the money faster still.

I think it does that whenever you're in the top 5.
I've played over 200 hours and I've never gotten anything over $2. I really wouldn't get this game expecting to make up the costs with the crate system.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
Look straight down, you can see how fast you're going on the right side. I think max is around 225mph or something
If you hit min open altitude at maximum freefall speed (234 km/h) you'll make it half way through the parachute distance before your chute full opens (233 km/h will get you ~20% of the way through the fall, 232 km/h will get you 5% of the fall, and anything else below that will open the chute right at the ceiling).
Consequently it's almost always better to fall toward your target at the flatest horizontal line until your 40-30m away then nosedive (at least until you get a good feel for how much altitude you'll need to get to 234).

Does playerunknown of playerunknown's battlegrounds count as just some employee?
How far? We need to see

Loving the game but man, it really sucks when you randomly get popped and die instantly without any idea where or what hit you.
I wish the time to death was just a tiny bit longer so you have a sort of "oh shit there is something over this way - DEAD" type experience instead of just "DEAD"

So I finally picked this up after seeing all the Giant Bomb streams.
Just finished my first 2 solo games and my god is this game tense! I think its just the sound design- namely, most of the game is pretty damn quiet. Just you rummaging around and running around the environments punctuated by the crack of gunfire and explosions right in your face.
Seems super fun but this is definitely not the type of game I'll be able to play to unwind before bed.
