I have the AMD 390 and can only get 45ish fps, tbh, but I'm *also* on a 2500 i5 cpu. Not sure which is the bigger bottleneck!
EDIT: The timer is like, the least useful thing, I would think. It's a horrendous idea to constantly have the circle right at your back, so who cares if it tells you the last second before it hurts you?

Fog games. Kill 5 people that never saw me. Die to someone I didn't see. That's pretty much every fog game I've played.
Remember you can buy and then refund if the game doesn't run well. You have 14 days but you need to have less than 2 hours played
Circle timer and when is last chance to heal are things that can be used no matter how long you have played.
Rest of the features are not really needed when you know the basics.
After a weeks hiatus I return to a quick game ending in a #2 spot. I hit the final guy 3 times but he took me out in return immediately.* That sucked, but I'm glad I ended up at #2 regardless. Kind of forgot what kind of rush this game gives you in the top 10.

I blame this on the numerous Jack'n'Cokes I consumed this evening
Killed by this cheating POS in the top 4. Knew it was coming because the kill feed was a non-stop list of victims of his aim bot.

OK FUCK THIS GAME.
Fuck this fucking piece of shit fucking fuck.
I drop into a place. I'm the only one apart from a guy who pulled their shoot waaaaaaaaaaaaay too early and is drifting down. So I go looking for a gun to kill him when he lands.
Three full buildings AND NO WEAPON AT ALL and he lands right on an M16 and kills me with it.
Seriously, is there something I need to do to get a gun when I land and there is someone else planning to land somewhere near me in 1 minute? Because every single fucking fucking fucking time anyone lands within a million miles of me I get NO GUN and they get a fucking arsenal.
Also, is there a way to stop matchmaking after you click the button in frustration and forget to reset all the settings?
EDIT: Welp, decided to play at AS Solo game (instead of EU Solo (FPP) ) and got my first chicken dinner (after 89hrs).

This isn't really the answer when you're already landing in a nearly isolated area and 3+ buildings don't have a single weapon. Sometimes you just have really bad luck.

So...you calm down and change it up next game. RNG is part of the game. No use getting mad over the vast number of variable you cannot control in this game...it's part of the charm.
Even guys like Shroud have unsalvageable starts.

My landing plan usually is "Get away from the people dropping". I guess my plan should be land in a field away from all buildings and potential weapons? I'm already trying to get as far from the flight path as possible but it doens't matter. If one person drops in the same town/village/complex/whatever as me I still can't find a weapon in those cases.

any tips for a beginner? i play on my own.
i'm only 3 hours played so far but struggling to keep interested. i am enjoying it but i am useless when trying to defend myself. if i can actually see the person shooting at me i'm still lucky to get a shot at them. i just feel like i'm dying instantly.

Drop at busy areas to get comfortable with being in combat. Once you can win some 1 on 1s then worry about trying to win a game.

If I land somewhere with other people and I can't find a gun in like 20 seconds I run away empty-handed. Chances are they didn't get a gun and a scope that fast.

Woohoo. First time in winning where I had the last kill.
Edit: and this game needs a kill cam like yesterday.

I fucking hate how this game KNOWS when I've made a stupid mistake.
I'm sitting in a spot. Nobody around. Circle isn't closing in yet. I take a look at the map to see where people might be coming from and where I'll probably go next. And then... I close the map and there's a guy there. But he only starts to shoot after I close the map. Like... he knows and is just fucking with me.

30 wins in this game but it feels like I'll never get another.

Guys I need help, I've been a pc gamer for years but have pretty much exclusively used a controller.
I tried using keyboard and mouse today in my first game with pubg or any fps on pc and it did not go well.
My fingers just can't work independently and am either running constantly or mushing multiple keys. Think it's too late for me to master the keyboard, mouse was good though felt sharp.
Please tell me a controller is a viable option? Or even supported?

I got matched up with some streamers last night. They really seemed to hate me for being the random fourth. Watching the archive of the game they spent the first ten minutes just shit talking me, lol.
They were way better than I was though. Now I have anxiety my shitty play will be broadcasted to an audience.

It's supported and if you don't rage or want to win it's playable.
I was in the same boat you were. It honestly just takes time to develop muscle memory. I still struggle to hit the number keys etc but it's worth it for that sweet sweet mouse precision. Just keep at it.

I had the reverse issue, i was totally unable to play an FPS with a controller. I just forced myself and now i'm fine. You just have to pass for some hours of discomfort and then muscle memory will kick in.

Seems like the demand bottomed out for those gamescom crates. The quantity is shooting back up.
I think because it's a new game trying to learn it and how to use m/k is a bit overwhelming. I understand very little about the game and died twice by the blue haze.
Anyhow I'll probably try sticking it out for a couple of week and avoid console gaming / controller all together whilst trying to learn.

I think his name was Evac, and he may have been the only one actually streaming. The squad eventually warmed up to me and linked me to their discord, which is how I found the stream. They were way too good for me though, I'm scrub tier. Lol.

if I buy a key from cd keys I just redeem it on steam and that's it ?
Also is the website legit

Do you have to look down to know where a key is. For example jumping from wasd to the m key to open the map you have to look or is this something that will be picked up by memory over time?
That's what I just did an hour ago so yes

Lot of people sitting on them waiting for the price to climb even higher. I know some H1Z1 crates got as high as ten dollars before. Hard to say how many there are and how low high they will get eventually.
I'm sitting on 12 myself and trying to hold off for a bit.
That really depends on you. I have memorized most of the keys but have a really hard time with zxcvb and map crouch/walk etc to my mouse buttons most of the time.

Not sure if anyone posted it yet, but someone else made a pretty decent PUBG movie.

nope, not working
edit: no one will believe me now, but duckjump was working with binding crouch and jump to left shift, right clicking the second binding slot while holding shift and right clicking next to the options menu window. the binding was saved but now it is not working anymore, not sure why.

They fixed that in some patch some time ago.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Took 12 hours but finally I can eat.
System Requirements Lab is a garbage site.
Note that if you buy a key outside of Steam, you are no longer eligible for the refund.

It definitely pick up over time, it's slower because you won't use map as much as crouch or jump but it will kick in eventually.
Also maybe it have to do with your keyboard abilities, do you have to watch the keyboard while typing ?
