90% of the time I can tell which direction a shot is coming from.

The other 10% of the time I circle around a tree and the shooter is still somehow shooting at me on every direction without me seeing.

If not using yet consider headphones. After that it's just getting used to directional audio of the game. Suppressed shots are pain to figure out.

A 970 shouldn't be a problem for this, right? It's getting harder to resist purchasing it.

 

[Messofanego]

Is there a reason why there isn't a killcam or replay to show where the enemies are? Is it so players can't tattle-tale to others on their team or something?

no, it isn't but i have my settings at medium for better performance with a 970

I would assume so. I'm OK with no killcam, personally.

I wish it would at least indicate where you were killed from. There have been times I died with little indication of where I was shot from, and it's really hard to learn lessons that way.

SoloQ will get killcam at some point, but DuoQ and SquadQ won't get it.

 

[TheMan]

this game is based on arma III's engine, right? so if I my rig can play that then this game should run decently?

Source? Thanks, that sounds good if true.

I could swear it was mentioned in some devblog, but at least in official DIscord where PU hangs.

 

[ronco2000]

Will this come out on console?

Thanks. Yeah, I'll end up keeping settings medium to low.

Yes, you'd sooner run into a CPU bottleneck.

Will this come out on console?

They've said "later this year".

 

[GodofWine]

Will this come out on console?

They said after PC is done, but id not hold my breath for a ps4 xb1 release, i just dont think it will run well enough. Scorpio and beyond maybe, but still that jaguar cpu.


Or who knows, maybe they will optimize it well and itll work.

I'm currently running most settings on High/Ultra with a 970 OC'd to 1500 MHz, i7 6700K @ 4.5GHz + 32 GB DDR4.

 

[theepicoftyler]

I just got into the last 5, which was my highest yet. I'm literally shaking, haha. This game is so stressful.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Flip and roll a buggy all the way down one of the big hills which nearly destroys it, forced to use it anyway to head into the final circle on the mountain south of the school, steal a UAZ, dodging bullets from all sides and the owner of the UAZ, take a head shot but barely survive and duck behind the UAZ sandwiched between a rock and the blue with smoke to heal as it whittles down to the Top 10, rushing to the center where a single small house lies, there's four crashed buggies outside of it (including one blocking a door), ram the UAZ through the fence straight up to the window where the guy barricaded inside is, toss three frag grenades through window, all three end up bouncing in a different direction than where the marker showed (including one that somehow ricocheted outside the house at a 75 degree angle), pop up and blast the guy with the AKM... except I'm still in single fire, then trying to blast him with the double barrel, which just barely misses him, then running around to the side to prepare more frags as I take a small hit... and then a second after rounding the corner, another shot suddenly registers as lag catches up and I die.

 

[bonesmccoy]

aw darnit

Finished 2nd thanks to good/bad luck.

Good = I took out 3 dudes in the final 5 (game total of 5k's, my best yet).
Bad = In doing so gave away my position and the winner picked me off.

Where was the final circle? I had a game I won where it was down to five, I waited a bunch and just kicked off the last one.

The developers already have it working on the Xb1 Preview scheme and are polishing it. It's definitely coming to base units.

 

[Dufoos]

Just piked up the game. Got top 10 in 2 matches, played 4. Have trouble finding any rifles.

 

[Pachimari]

What is the official Discord? Is it the Reddit one?

And what software do you guys use to make gifs?

 

[AcridMeat]

Oh MAN what a great night of games. Won first round of the night, and got in the top 10 in the majority of the other rounds.

This one in particular felt awesome because all of my kills came after my squadmates died and there were 30 something left. I camped outside the building that a squad of 4 killed them in,and slowly/methodically picked them off as they appeared. It felt so damn good when I got the last one. We were both prone in tall grass so it was hard for either of us to keep an eye on each other.

The loot going back feels so good. I play so much better once I'm not constantly trying to find something vital.

 

[HowZatOZ]

I've never actually bothered to check/notice but how does scrubs/grass factor into what you can see in the distance? I like to hide prone in the grass on a hill looking out while I scout or even better in a bush but is that grass and bush rendered at a distance?

Probably not - but its hard to say since its a little hard to test these things out on public servers.

Developers have their own.

Grass isn't rendered, but downscaled bush is. It's possible you are easier to spot from distance because of that.

Rendered to a distance you would want, I had a long rifle battle with 3 other players in a cornfield with bushes last night. Was really fun.

 

[SomTervo]

You got shot from outside the window.

You can see the shooter upstairs in another room looking down at the player.

In field. Id gotten caught outside of the safe zone and had a sliver of health too. My luck changed so quickly lol

I meant, which area - I gunned the last guy down in a field, it was somewhere on the miliary island.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

I have played this for 20 hours now and zero wins, not sure if that's bad.

Oh, don't remember the exact spot. Not on the military island though.

 

[Kadin]

I'm close to 3x that and still have yet to get mine. I've had more than a handful of #2 finishes but I just can't get that final kill. One day...

 

[Kaname]

Got a handful of wins in 70+ hours but I don't even mind because I'm having a lot of fun anyway

 

[Pachimari]

Haven't gotten a win either, don't feel bad about it. We should squad up and them all out once and for all.

 

[ScipiosDefence]

Got 60 matches in and zero wins, I'm enjoying every minute but I'm really not good at getting kills.

I can survive until the top 20 fairly often but my aim seems to be crap or the server lag is messing my aim when I get in a firefight.

 

[Fried Food]

I haven't won any. Gotten "lots" of top 10, top 5s, 2 and 3rds though. It'll happen one day. Probably once first person servers go up and all the noobs stick to third.

 

[Glass]

Just witnessed Lirik get 22 kills and the win whilst solo queuing into a squad match. Time to get the LMG and camp the bridge.

Yup, that was pretty intense. VOD if anyone wants to watch

That's probably why and I don't mind not knowing where they got me from. I would however like to see their character and what they have equipped, that'd be neat.

 

[Drazgul]

Do the items you gain while playing via family sharing carry over if you buy the game later?

 

[scarletham]

That seems pretty normal to me

 

[TheMan]

is playing on a team with randos a stupid idea?

 

[Tovarisc]

is playing on a team with randos a stupid idea?

Yes

No if you want to be shot to back

 

[Krappadizzle]

Whenever I take shots at someone running across a field.

The bridge part looked like lirik was playing gta trying to get 5 stars. Fucking crazy.

 

[Robaperas]

Bought the game because of Giant Bomb, got to top 10 in SA servers twice in a row, I got shot on a hill when the circle started to close, after killing a guy hiding in a bathroom.

This game truly is nerve-racking.

Same boat. I just had my career best finish of #4 and I just had to stop playing. I'm so jittery now haha.

Yup, I also made it to fourth, those final seconds were insanely tense.

I can only play this game in short bursts. Need time to calm my nerves lol
