Played a couple of games this morning...I still have the innate ability to shoot cartoon-esque outlines of the bad guys every time.
Which is amazing considering I was using a shotgun.

I agree with stepping away. I got destroyed all day yesterday. Took a break and then hopped into duos with my brother. I prefer practicing in duos and was able to get my aim back after struggling with the new patch.
I think I solved my post patch issues. I had to shift my aimpoint. Due to the recoil, I was aiming low at the chest and letting the recoil work me up the body. This strategy got me a lot of headshots and I won most of these because no one else could shoot. Since the update, I've gotten hits, but the recoil stays so low it was giving them a chance to turn and headshot me as I accumulated the 5-6 body shots you need against level 2+ armor. Now I'm aiming at the neck and I'm ripping fools down again. Yay
Thank you for your kind words :D I also love to do it, since the last forum I always post this type of content :D
Yeah it was awesome and I agree they are pushing it really hard I wonder if they will try to make it exclusive
Thanks indeed that controller is so sexy
Finished 2nd place last night. What a great feeling. In the 2nd to last circle I saw someone on a rooftop firing. Like I was on a swat team I sneaked up to the door to the roof. Once I heard him start shooting again I opened the door and killed him. Loved that moment.
In other news.. I thought I was #teamAldi as that is where I do most of my shopping.. but they just opened a Lidl here in Raleigh and my allegiance has changed. The store is brighter, chocolate is better, and they have a bakery with a very acceptable croissant. Go #teamLidl
Also don't forget to join the resetera pubg club. When you request and invite please pm me your xbl name so I know who I'm accepting.

No need to worry about cars when you have a DP-28

The chicken dinners from Aldi are sensational.
I will look at joining the club later.
Edit:My addiction sucked me back in. Just got 3 kills and 7th.

Do a search for I on Xbox club section. Sadly there seems to be no way to link to it.
Merry Christmas, hom3land!
If you ever feel like chicken dinner, Lidl is there for you, fam.
(I should get paid for this)
The Rng gods hate me today. I've found 1 AR in the last 5 games. And it's not like I haven't been looking. I found 4 8x scopes in one building....lol.
Edit: and I find an AR and 2 people team on me in solo. F U.

Where are you trying to find loot? Some areas have lower spawn chances for better guns and gear.
Man, sometimes I'll survive/win an encounter where I'm outmatched/outflanked, but because of that adrenaline rush I'll do something totally unnecessary/unneeded/idiotic in my next encounter lol. Its happened in both my last two games lol. Why :(
In the last few games? I've been dropping near rozhok, away from the school.
I seem to find a dozen shotguns before I can get an AR.

Go for the apartments to the right of school. Or go to George or somewhere with warehouses. High risk high reward. There's some other great places that are off the beaten path but you'll have to find those yourself >:]

Awesome site! I wonder when we will be able to start seeing xbox stats on stat websites and such.
I sort of hope soon, I sort of hope never--if you know what I mean lol.
I so wish this game came out 15 years ago when I had way more time to dedicate.
I just know my 43 year old ass who barely has time to play these days will be useless in this game, but I truly love the whole premise of last man standing out of 100 players.
Was really hoping MS was going to retroactively give it to Day 1 owners of the X. Alas that never happened.
Oh well. Enjoy to those who do have the time to dedicate.

I get what you're saying for sure lol it's a gift and a curse
Tried this again earlier (first time since the second update) and it felt unplayable.
Rubber banding all over the place, controls felt unresponsive and it was really hard to aim....wtf has happened?

There are times during a tense battle where my AC kicks in and I get in panic mode because I can't always hear the small sounds in game.
My best game today was when I was listening to music. I think the sounds of the game makes me nervous. As soon as hear an explosion or gun shots I shit my pants.
Edit: just tried the apparments for the first time.... Found nothing in a a whole building. Not even a pistol. Got chased for 5 minutes by a guy with a shotty.

Having a headset is a pretty considerable advantage for sure. I'm actually thinking about investing in a high quality headset, mostly for PUBG.
I am still trying to understand the logic of team killing your teammates if you don't get points from doing it . Fuck
I need to start recording stuff.
I was outside the play zone, was about to die from the damage but found a motorcycle out of nowhere and made it in. But on my way, I managed to run over a dude who was prone and killed him haha.

Report them. There's no place for teamkilling in PUBG, and IIRC, even a streamer or two got in trouble for it?
I will second the recommendation for the RIG 800LX. Fantastic headset and if a game as Atmos support it is even better.
I try to hang around the edge, and then forget the area is about to shrink.. Died a few times like that I must admit.
That's actually the one I'm considering. How is it working out for you?
Also if you don't mind me asking, how are the voice quality and noise cancellation on the mic?
It's been working out really well. I'm a big fan of the dial that lets you mix voice/game chat--it works wonderfully well to let me roll back game volume in the lobby and then kick it up in more sensitive areas. The drivers seem decent as well, and a bit better than the Stealth 600's I returned and exchanged (left ear can ringing aside).
As far as voice, it seems to work well. I don't think it has any sort of active noise cancellation (or even mic monitoring), but everyone hears me clearly and without a lot of modulation.
Okay. I posted earlier in the thread I was passing on this game as I do not have time to dedicate to getting good at it. I also had not received the Xbox Gift Card yet that I received from my father in law earlier tonight for X-Mas. Checking things out there is not much it looks like I will be spending this money on until March or so. And I really am very intrigued by this game itself.
So 1 question and a confirmation.
TIA for anyone that can provide some intel.
So 1 question and a confirmation.
- I Googled it and I see matches on average are about 30 or so minutes each? This about right?
- Does one have to sit around after they die? Meaning if a match is 30 minutes long and I die 5 minutes into said match, is the next 25 minutes me just sitting around for the next game? Or can I leave the server and find a new match to join? And will I indeed join that new match in a relatively timely manner? Or is the etiquette once you find a server you stay on said server?
TIA for anyone that can provide some intel.
Cool, thanks for sharing your impressions. I'm probably going to go ahead and pull the trigger on it. Seems like the best value for the money, especially considering the Dolby Atmos support.
Awesome thank you. And can you get in a new match relatively quickly? Like within 10 minutes or so?
If that is the case, I will be buying it tonight to start playing it tomorrow.
Thanks,
DL
I've never had it take more than 30 seconds to find a match outside of trying to queue with a squad of 3 which just doesn't work right now.
A couple of games.
Shooting just feels off now compared to before, have they changed the default settings? If so what were they as I liked them and got on with them.
