And apparently I ran into the potato crew today; 3 kills in a fuckin row, all right next to each other but playing solos...apparently they don’t listen for gunshots. Got one dude thru a bathroom window, one dude in a buggy next door, and another guy jumped off a motorcycle to engage me. Motorcycle dude shouldn’t have even bothered, one shotted him with the 5 round shotgun.

I love potato.

I’ll add ya later this morning Crunch, I’ll shoot you the link for the Discord I use when I play with my brother too. Usually only do weekends anymore, where are you at in the States (just wondering since we usually end up playing kind of late sometimes)?

On topic, I noticed a bunch of suspect type shit the last day or so; look back at the patch notes and sure enough they took off the newest anti-cheat stuff cause people were complaining it was fucking up their games. Weirdly enough the game never ran better for me but whatever. I was having a blast the last few days and that all ended last night; just nothing but frustration getting headshot outta nowhere, weird deaths with no one around, completely missing all my shots (apparently!!) and an all around not fun experience. Oh well, hopefully they optimize the anti-cheat and stick it back in, it was actually working.

I love this game when it’s fair but when I spend 15-20 minutes looting, plan accordingly for circles, get positioned and ready to murder and then just get headshot by some aimbot it makes me want to beat the shit out of my computer lol

No worries dude, we weren’t great either, we’re usually better than that. Good days and bad days. This is that game where if it’s going well it’s super fun, if you’re getting your shit pushed in it pretty much sucks lol. Jump in whenever!

Like this...this is the Chinese version since it came out first, but it's pretty smooth from what he's telling me and the gameplay....they've also added modes that people have been bitching for on the PC version, like one where it's just a quick match; circle starts out small, basically one town, just 30 or so people. Goes pretty fast.

And another, same buddy;

[video]https://youtu.be/t3b55ypLOec[/video]

From a post where he was answering some of my questions about if it was hard to control, because I have like 24 keybinds on my controller lol:

'They’ve also added some stuff, like an auto pickup feature where the game will automatically pick up things it thinks you need (you can turn this off if you want). So in that video when I’m looting the dead dude, all the yellow boxes are being picked up automatically. It does this particularly in the early game where it will replace pistols with better guns, automatically equip attachments like stocks, grips, and sights. You can always open your backpack and manually swap out attachments though, like I did at the end of the video where I swapped out my 4x scope for an 8x scope to kill that dude across the river.'

Sounds like it'd be fun...

had some good runs yesterday, no chicken dinners but top 10 in most games.... the more I use the SKS the more I like it... even with the 2x scope I was pretty damn deadly, got 8 kills.... had some tasty kills yesterday to, think its time to turn the game DVR on lol


as for the mobile version, I'm going to avoid that like the plague lol.... my battery would be dead in no time lol

How accurate do you find the AKM? I have a hard time hitting bodies at ~100m.. With any 5.56 rifle I have no issues up to ~200m

yeahhhhh... the AKM is notorious for not being super accurate.... though it is one of the more powerful guns... so it has it's merits, for longer distances I go to single shot and it's not bad... my favorite load out will always be the M416 and some sort of sniper rifle... but I'm cool with the AKM and a sniper.... I had a helluva run using a M416 with an 8X scope and an AKM with a 4x a couple days ago.... the M416 worked out great a kinda faux sniper rifle

My favorite loadout is a Mini14 w/4x + DP-28 w/RDS. Its a mean combo.

yeah... the Mini14 is a killer gun.... I think I need more time with the DP-28, it's a beast for sure but controlling it can be rough.

Man I’ve had a rough week; I’m doing ok in solos, but running duos or squads I’m sucking balls lately. Played a few games with Krunch and I felt bad cause I’ve sucked so hard pretty much all week lol

I’m usually getting at least top 2-3 in solos and my stats are nuts for that, but I can’t hit the broad side of a fuckin barn lately.

I'm not big on playing with Random people, so unless I see a friend online I play solo... some times I'll do One Man Squad if I'm in the mood.... simply because if you're on your game you'll get more kills.... If you're not on your game, you'll die real fast lol

Mini 14 is so recoil free. I love it. Pop off 4 rounds without being off target.

yeah.... even as a primary weapon with a Red Dot or shooting from the hip it can be really deadly...

Some good games with Krunch tonight; don’t let his posts fool you, dude is a beast. He got shot, healed up and then charged a tiny room with two dudes holed up in it and came out on top.

Top 10 most games with this guy; no wins yet but we’ll get there.
