Nice work guys on your 2nd places and dinners.

I hope we get 60fps before the new map..

Been playing a lot of 1 vs Squad which is quite good, as a lone gunman it's easier to hide and more targets to shoot at. I find I come top 10 or even top 5 quite a lot in solo compared to a squad.

Saying that, I had a great chicken dinner last night in a squad last night.

Also got a kill with a pan!

Does anyone know when the new map will come to Xbox?

Doesn't look like it's going to be soon, doesn't seem to get positive comments from a lot of people on PC - too much open space and no great looting spots being the main issues

Would be nice to have a change of scene though..

Upcoming patch to PC is solving it with some extra buildings & cover as well as the loot issue.

They've been very open about saying Miramar won't be coming to Xbox until they've made sure all the issues are solved and it's well balanced.

Rage quit last night for the first time.
Lost every single one on one I had even when i had the drop on them with a fully auto AR.
50 yard headshots on static players just completely missing,nothing new there but i was using a fully tooled up sniper rifle.
The most kills i managed in a match was one but most ended with me dying almost straight away.I thought I was finally getting to grips with this game but obviously not.

Had exactly the same last night! Couldn't kill anyone - two shotgun shots into the back of someone I had the drop on and they turned around and head shot me with a mini Uzi.

Same thing happened at the prison, I was above on the rocks, shooting at someone down below, they got to cover and then instantly popped out and one shotted me with a Kar - I don't even know how they knew where I was!

[Gee68]

I must of been killed three times last night with people using the mini Uzi,Can't ever remember being killed by someone using it before.
I did manage a third place last night but that was with only one kill and a lot of cowardly hiding.

I've noticed a lot of people using it lately too.

The thing about PUBG is that attachments make the gun and a fully kitted Uzi and Tommy gun (also style points for the Tommy gun with the extended mag and grip) are both decent in their own right (especially for the early game). I struggle with the vector, I'll prefer the pistols tbh, find them much easier to aim.

Being able to take shots at people without them knowing where you are is a huge advantage too, so if I find a silencer/suppressor for anything I'll pick it up and then try to find that weapon type.

Haven't been on much but have had a chicken dinner this week, clutching a 2 v 1 in a squad game where our squad only got 6 kills in total.

Then had my highest kill game last night (14 kills, finishing second).

lol at 14 kills in one game, I haven't had 14 kills since I started playing.

Also attachments that fit the submachine guns are always easy to find.

I don't often find a silencer for an AR but i'm constantly tripping over ones fro SMG's.

[Not Ideal]

Silencers for me are the best attachment - I always get so many more kills with it.

14 kills in one round ??!! 1.4 kills is about right for me...

I got a Kar98 with one off a guy i won a shootout with, he must have been really hacked off to have lost with such a good amount of loot based on how bad i felt when i lost it 2 minutes later.

14 is impressive, most i've ever got was 7 but most of the time it's 3-4.

Sadly the record amongst my friends is 19, and not held by me.

I got very lucky in that two squads were taking pot shots at each other from behind cover but I had a great angle on both and the circle was only going to bring them straight to me. That netted 7 kills, the rest were the usual loose change from the initial drop into Poi, a few from storming one of the last buildings (next to School) and I killed two of the winning squad before getting flanked by the last two.

something I've noticed lately is that people don't use stuns yet they can be very useful. The effectiveness is very hit and miss but the sound of one will make people bolt from cover, even if it doesn't blind them.

I've yet to manage to use a stun grenade without blinding myself too

LT changes under/over arm and turn away before it goes off.

It's all gone quiet on this thread,Is anyone still playing?
Got a chicken dinner last night,my second in god knows how many hours,i am a gaming god.
Did the little winner winner dance in silence around the kitchen as everyone had gone to bed,I get sadder as I get older.

I also picked up my first Guille(sp) suit last night which i would highly recommend if anyone still hasn't tried one.
Last bloke in the circle literally walked straight past me prone out in the open,just got to one knee and shot him in the back,I almost felt bad for him.

^ can you only pick those suits up from the crates that get air-dropped or are they lying around randomly?

Will be having a session tonight for sure !

Yep,only from crates,I dropped lucky as one landed right by me.
I don't normally go for crates as it often means death by sniper but with this one landing so close and being in a car i chanced it.
Had the options of an AWM rifle,Guille suit and something involving a Magnum(not the ice cream)but wasn't sure what that was.
I only took the suit as i was rushing and the sniper seemed pointless as the circle was already pretty tight.

Finished the round with a Tommy gun and a Scar(great gun) but wished i'd picked up whatever the magnum thingy was just to give it a try.

That would have been the ammo for the AWM which i think is the best sniper in the game. I love getting my hands on it when I get a chance, with the spray and pray M249 coming a close second

I'm still completely addicted to this, only stopping to play Forza now and again. I'm up to I think 21 wins now, my duo partner and I got 4 wins in one day on the weekend including a back to back.. don't think I'll be able to do that again as it's dropped us down to 200th in the world and it's got a lot harder

Good to see the developers are listening to the players though, the last update solved a fair few issues but there's still some way to go before we get version 1.0 yet.

Ahhh,I see.Never got to a crate first before so didn't have a clue what it was.

Now this may be me being ham fisted but I keep getting stuck in the looting screen when i'm trying to decide what to take and what to drop,bloody annoying when you're trying to be quick but nothing will work leaving the only choice but to exit out then go back in again.

I have the exact same problem, the amount of times I've been killed because of the clunky looting is ridiculous but it's definitely quicker to press start and chance it rather than look at each individual item to pick up.
