That's streamers for ya. A lot of them complain about anything that isn't people rushing at them.

Yeah I love Grimmmz but every time he bitches about campers or prone slugs I have to tune him out. If he had his way this game would turn into a massive arena shooter. I hope the devs don't focus too much on what streamers say and keep on with the vision they clearly have for the game.

If anyone still has a GMG discount code for this I'd really appreciate it, thanks

Best change in an excellent update imo
Yeah, but the people he's playing against aren't there to make his stream entertaining.
Thanks I used one.
I don't get it :-(

Just played my first game. 1 kill and 24# out of 91. Not bad.
It is definitely dropping some frames though, so I'm gonna look where I can change my settings.

PUBG and H1Z1 are most definitely not on the Arma engine. PUBG feels like it to a degree, but is not.
H1Z1 actually uses the same engine as Planetside 2.

Yeah, I think Grimmmz is an incredible player but to be honest, I have a hard time watching his stream. Maybe it's because I would tune in first thing in the morning my time, right about when he's wrapping up. He would either die super early game or win but when he died he always blamed it on the player campers. Same thing over and over and over again.
Oddly enough, I can watch Kongphan no problem, who approaches the game similarly and complains about campers as well but he does it with a sense of humor. Grimmmz just complains.
When your reaction time is unrivalled and you have pixel perfect aim, may be challenging everything that moves is a worthwhile strategy but the rest of us have to be a little more selective on how we engage.
I'm not a fan of super passive play, mainly because getting to the top 10 but dying in your first engagement is not satisfying at all for me, but I'm also not going to go on a hunting expedition to fight every player on the server.

Luck was definitely on my side last night. Won a squad match and then a few rounds later won a duos. The game is slowly deteriorating my heart
A lot of PUBG streamers fall into the same trap.
Grimmmz is better than I will ever be. But for me, camping is a valid strat and has won me some games. He might not LIKE it. But that is the game!
He and Ninja play a really agressive style that works really well for them. But that they expect everyone to want to play the same risky playstyle puts me off

Start of the match is awful on my rig. Houses need a minute to load until I can enter them after arriving by parachute.
I think a SSD helps a lot with that at least.

Yeah, I thought of that just now. Gonna create a SteamLibrary on my SSD and move it there.
Edit: Yeah, way better now.
Shadows low, foliage low. AA as low as it goes but not off.
This. Once Im in the top 20, I become a bush until Im in the top 10. And then its about 50% luck where the circle goes. But top 10 is a stat and if its within easy reach, I take it. I also don't usually drop into busy places, I enjoy the 'try to be the last person' aspect of the game more than the combat.

I just killed a guy with an AKM with a frying pan. He looked very confused.
I've never felt like the school was particularly good. Loot isn't amazing, it's a bit annoying to get around and if the plane is anywhere near it half the server lands nearby.
Lol. That must've been fun
just drop into nowheresville and camp regardless of what shitty guns you get, then slowly approach circles as the blue zone starts moving in. you wont win but practically guaranteed top 30 everytime!
I usually do that. Just the last few games have been so frustrating.
Ah well I'll give it a rest till tomorrow
The school is great because there's always guns immediately available on the roof. If you get lucky and land on/near one, you should be able to kill someone. If you get unlucky, you scramble and/or die quickly and do it again! Plus it's even better now post-patch with the great response time on picking up items.

Wheres the school at?
north east of Pochinki, just next to the apartments
I feel like literally every area around it is better. Rozhok, apartments, the two clusters of buildings sourth-west, all better spots for that.

i find its easy to get tunnelvision. a lot of the time i find myself holding a location and get distracted and before i know it the blue zone is on my ass and i am basically doomed. in those circumstances you might as well try and get a few more kills
other people i imagine simply think they can survive with boosters and first aid or they just dont care about anything but murder
can't stand watching streamers get tilted
i'll take grimmz whining over DrD's raging any day.

There is nothing quite like finishing your looting and getting everything you need, and then die because you were in the second story of a building (not near windows) when the red zone hit.

So does custom keybinding not work in the early access? I can't rebind any of my controls, the Apply button doesn't light up and I can't click it :/

I think everything has to be filled in before it lets you hit apply. Look for any empty keybindings (-).

Does anyone have a spare GMG code? My kids wanted to get me a game for my birthday, and I literally just discovered this today. Looks like a lot of fun!
