Ohh as it is you mate :) Go on then :)
I do like his Battle Royale game-mode found in Arma so i'm gonna give it a try
Me add and paddy play h1z1 king of the hill which is the same sort of game mode so am down to give this a try with you lads :D, seems to be one of the best of these sorts of games out there right now
Anyone fancy a game of this, this evening?
yup please coach let me play let me play!
how did the games go ?
Not too bad, we were just getting used to the ins and outs really.
Definitely helps to have a leader, just like in ARMA but the game can end quite abruptly. In the last game we all geared up quite well but then whilst running to the safe zone we got anialated.
I think more caution would have helped. I love the sneaking around and looting at the start of the game, it definitely promotes teamwork and is very fun, it's just the last part that needs a lot of thought otherwise everything you did before is a bit pointless.
Really enjoying it though :)
Myself and Nuka played it last night. Didn't do too well but its a fun game. Anyone up for some games tonight if they're on?

I brought the game yesterday, so if I get to grips with it I might see some of you in game some time :thumbup:
That would be great mate it been too long
I'm still around & gaming buddy, just nothing that anyone else plays it seems! :D
or, just single player games, obviously makes it a bit more difficult....
Had a really nice game today with Galatoni, TwoBad and Puff. Things seemed awfully dire but we came out on top :D

Awesome clip bros!!
I swear this game hates me, no matter where i fly in the bloody zone is always at the furthest point away from me and i can never find a bloody vehicle :D
Enjoying it so far. Out of curiosity, what video settings you all running this on?
Low haha. Doesn't make too much difference to me. Just makes it run faster and stuff.
Low foliage, low shadows and the rest is on ultra I think
Pretty much all Ultra apart from foliage but mainly because other players have it low which means if I don't then they gain an advantage over me, which is unfair
Edit: I haven't actually changed any settings I just let the game automatically optimise it for me, apart from foliage
Picked this up... had a go... seems good, but not a solo game. Hope to group with some of you soon :)

.... ow ...... I mean .... yay.... only joking with you chaos it's nice to see you have it aswell. I prefer this game as a group then just a solo game. There are people who enjoy the solo aspect of it but I enjoy the teamwork that is needed to get the win. I look forward to okaying with you :D just stay away from jay bless him, he still thinks he is playing a tank on there ( <3 you jay. He is normallly the last alive ... some how ? :D)

Just a psycho considering he isn't on about a game just relay life :) I killed 8 people and they didn't even damage me
This game is Arma in more than just engine.
We clumsily run around climbing fences and trying not to drown.
We shoot at enemies we can't hit, only to get instantly headshot through rain and fog from 5 miles away.
We Die, and spend the rest of the game spectating our comrades slowly repeating the above.
We just need sulky to kill us all in a helicopter crash and the transformation is complete. :woot2:

First solo chicken dinner in a while. Played it quiet and shot when necessary. Zones were quite bad to be honest but other than that it was a good game.

Congrats mate, was some good games last night :)
Nice one Cheese :thumb:
Quote from: BrotherTobious;424342Congrats mate, was some good games last night :)
Yeah they were weren't they. That M249 is AMAZING. Especially against vehicles. As was found out last night :lmfao:
that gun is so OP :)
Personally i enjoy the ak47, for the increased damage i like using this gun in close to medium ranges with a 2 x scope. I would try to pair this weapon with either the kar sniper rifle or the m416 but these seem to be harder to get then most guns. the kar would have a 4 to 8 times scope or with the m416 a 4x at most with most of the attachments since when that gun has them all its amazing to have.

LoL that made me laugh so hard.
Thanks to Hawker, Sith and Gal last night for giving me the playerunknown 101 training.
It was fun, could have done with actually shooting someone a bit but I can see how this will be a really good team game if played right.

Ow no i am so sorry Albert... don't worry forget all they told you sweetie. We will sit down and go through it again for you ;) it's nice to see you joining us Albert and look forward to seeing you in the game. Don't expect to shot a lot of people tho, most the game you can go through and only see/ kill another team.
I shall finally be back at my PC tonight if anyone is around for a few games.
Might be if I am it will be nearer 8

How NOT to play PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS (https://youtu.be/wmjSMaiK1Zk?t=51s)
So maybe this is what Blob intended
[video=youtube;ZEbIUscLFMQ]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEbIUscLFMQ[/video]
Played last night with Tut and Frenzy and a few pals, we split in to 2 team and we managed to get both team in the same Battle Ground it was great we all met up at the start. Then we spilt and played properly, which ended up in the dying moments of our games we managed to be sandwich between a random and what turn out to be them. We killed the randoms then some of the other team and it was all over as we had sacrificed our lives in the blue circle to finish of Frenzys lot.
I think we should try this sometime it makes the game slightly more intense as you keep a eye on people that are dying. We could tell which team was which as Tuts team has a strict no pants policy. Like shot on site if you are wearing them policy.
Blob was suggesting we should try this last week but we never got a chance. Getting 3 or even 4 teams in the same game could be a laugh..... What day is it today? Could it be Chicken Dinner Night :boxing:
wow good job on getting into the same battleground, sounds like it was a good laugh. We can try this if people are happy to, my only concern would be that if the 2 squads teamed up would that not be classed as cheating? or is that not what you're saying :g:
Would be great to get 2 or more squads in the same game though, i totally agree with that. I would love to shoot some fellow dMw'ers :devil:
We did get 2 teams in, but then when we were on the plane went in to do different coms channels and played as 2 single teams. Each team had one goal which was to win the match. There was only banter pre plane and when the fire fight was over.

Excellent, gets my vote then :) we can try it tonight if everyone is happy to.
My view, team up definitely not. But make sure we jump in different areas so we don't kill each other in the first 90 seconds. After that every team for themselves..
We didnt even discuss where we would be jumping, once in the plane we went where we want and they went where they wanted.
For it to be cheating we would have to prefer teamwork to stabbing each other in the back :roflmao:
Of course there's nothing in the game stating you have to kill everyone you see. It's perfectly acceptable to let someone live.
I would rather let a dMw player who happened to end up in my game, go rather than kill them like a stranger.
Well I went on last night and there was no-one playing. Tried my first match Solo. All was looking good when I jumped, didn't see anyone else go, then the game caught up and I was surrounded by parachutes. Fall faster damn it. Raced someone to a building entering the opposite door and ran upstairs.... shotgun on the floor sweet. Just got it loaded and in they come, got my first kill. Right reload as its just 2 shot, someone else walks in. I died from a frying pan head shot.

A respectable death at the hands of the best weapon in the game!
Looks like some big changes in game are on the way -
QuotePlayers,
We’re excited to share that we will be running the test servers for PC 1.0 for the first time next week! We would like to invite our players to test vaulting & climbing and other existing features and systems we have modified. The test servers will be up for several days to allow everyone to try out the test build and give feedback.
Key changes:
Client and server optimization
Added vaulting & climbing
Changes in vehicle driving
Ballistics overhaul
We have made changes to some mechanics to make them more realistic and balanced. However, all changes are not final and we need your feedback after testing. In addition, this is only the first test build so there will be issues and bugs that have not been fixed yet. But we would like to assure you that we will do our best to address most of those issues when we release 1.0 unless there is a critical roadblock.
Patch notes will be posted early next week but we wanted to explain a little bit about vaulting & climbing today. Action & Gunplay Lead Pawel Smolewski has written a piece about the feature.
Vaulting & Climbing
Crossing and scaling obstacles may intermittently create many new tactical options available to the players. The standard jump feature can be used in standard situations, but there are many areas where it does not suffice. After all, PUBG features a play area of considerable proportions. In addition, objects located on the map differ greatly in shape and size. Such complexity can cause many problems for the players who need to rely on fast and effective means of jumping over (or on top of) boxes, containers, fences etc. For that reason we have decided to implement dynamic vaulting and climbing mechanics.
This feature enables in-game characters to quickly scale obstacles in front of them. Although we initially planned to allow crossing over structures which are up to 1 meter high, we have eventually decided to extend the functionality of the feature by increasing the limit to about 2.3 meters. Almost any static object that meets the dimension criteria can be scaled. Additionally, passing through openings in structures (such as windows) is possible as long as they are wide and tall enough. You may scale almost any static object which is short enough. Objects which are chest level high can be scaled with a weapon in hand. Taller structures that require pulling up to vault need to be performed with both hands free of any items (they will be holstered automatically when animation is played). Running towards the obstacle will generate momentum that will ensure faster motion. Performing the action from stationary position is also possible but the animation played will be slower, leaving players vulnerable for a longer period of time.
On the technical side the system consists of about 40 animations adjusted for different heights and situations. We internally use the term vaulting to describe the action that involves crossing over an obstacle while climbing refers to a motion that will cause the character to remain on top of it. By default control over vaulting and climbing is placed on the same key as jump and is context based. However, we do provide the players with a possibility of splitting the jump and vaulting actions to separate key-bindings in the controls section of in-game settings. When attempting to vault, the geometry of the objects in front of the character is scanned and an algorithm decides whether vaulting action can be performed and what type of animation can be used to get across or on top of it. Climbing will be preferred whenever there is enough space for the character to stand up. However, vaulting can be enforced by holding sprint button while moving â€" if the obstacle is thin enough, character will slide or cross over. Motion that involves pulling up can be cancelled before reaching the apex by starting to move in the opposite direction.
Due to the nature of this system, we expect possible issues, bugs and problems to occur. Ironing out this feature may take some more time, but we do hope you will have a lot of fun with it and make great use of it. We are eagerly awaiting your feedback and reports.
In the next few days, we will also touch on other important changes. Please stay tuned for more updates on the test server.
Regarding the use of cheats, we will be doing everything we can and use all resources available to detect and impose penalties on users who use cheats. Recently, we have implemented new measures to better identify and track their usage. We have designed reliable systems to do this more efficiently than before.
For a very long time, our development team has been analyzing data from a large pool of users who show abnormal gameplay behavior to build a system that helps us positively identify cheaters. We are now able to use the system to identify and ban these users more proactively. Using this system, we have already identified and banned about 20K additional users in only one day.
This is only a start. On top of BattlEye, we will use a monitoring system to strengthen our efforts to prevent use of cheats and impose penalties on them. We promise you that we will continue to do our best to quickly find and ban people who use cheats. We hope you will start to see an improvement going forward.
Thank you.
The PUBG Development and Community Team
