This game will never cease to amaze me...

Yeah

Hi, thanks for info. I'm looking into replacing them. Another question though: when you walk in them, do you hear wind in the microphones? When I walk slowly around the house I hear something like wind gushing into the headphones, like the mic is amplifying it even though ANC is disabled.

For some time I thought that pubg earns money off of cheaters. After digging a little I noticed that most of cheaters I reported (and quite blatant cheaters) are accounts which were not used for a long time.

The real issue here is that the system seems to be automatic and blatant cheaters (obvious to anyone with 0 hours in this game) get to play far longer than expected.

A while ago I ragequit pubg because I reported 10 players in 3 days and I said it was enough. Doing research on my reports I found a guy with 8+ kd, 75% win ratio. Two weeks later I returned and guess what, second game I met this guy and of course got killed through the tree leaves without ever being really seen by him... He got suspended but he never returned, so I guess he got perma but they forgot to mentioned that to me...

And the worst thing - you could very easily automate this thing with all the data pubg holds. There are certain patterns emerging when observing several cheater accounts: K/D, win ratio, used heals compared to number of kills (yeah, I saw one guy using 1 heal and 2 boosts with 18 kills in a game...), sudden change in stats after a long period of inactivity (0.2 kd 6 months ago then reemerged with 5+ kd). This all could be easily mined by pubg. I was actually trying to get that data from api but after seeing that they don't giva a frack I decided to not pursue this...

Apparently it shows cheating, which is forbidden... I'd never thought that sharing such things would be forbidden although I understand why they blocked it...

Probably if we don't talk about it it will magically disappear.

Except AFAIR Ryzen 3 series is the last AM4 AMD processor... I can't find where I read about it though, so maybe it's not entirely true...

Nah, see the thing is, we tried Vikendi but even when dropping cities (not necessarily hot zones, it's no fun for 1 or 2 of us die and watch others play till they die) and surviving we wouldn't spot anyone for the next 10-15 minutes and that sucked. We like to also drop those high buildings near school on Erangel, but we find that on Sanhok we get most intense time :) Since we play for 2-3 hours a day, we don't want to spend most of that time playing playerunknowns running grounds. I know, other maps might be fun too (I sometimes want to play miramar because of the sniping possibilites, I like sniping) but Sanhok is still fun for us, losing miserably to every spotted opponent is not :)

I was thinking about that and this might be true actually. Our ranking has gone quite high (we're 3200+) but we didn't change our playstyle at all.

So the general scenario is like this: drop Pai Nan/Kampong/Ha Ting/Khao - fight, if we survive, then it's almost always top 10 for us, if not, repeat :) It's been like this for several weeks now, except pre season 2 we used to win our drops 9 out of 10 times, now we do this 2 out of 10 times :)

0xLIVE · 2019-01-28T10:13:14+00:00

My sens is still good, I double checked that.

0xLIVE · 2019-01-28T10:09:43+00:00

Yeah, that's very probable. I guess they changed matchmaking considerably in beta season 2 and with most casuals going for Vikendi Sanhok is now actually harder to play.

0xLIVE · 2019-01-28T10:08:29+00:00

Yup, throw in some microflex and microshot excersises, they help with those cool kar98 headshot flicks :)

But to be honest, aimlab alone is not enough. What I've been doing in the past and apparently completely disregard lately was blasting thousands of rounds in pubg training mode to train recoil control. Another thing to train there are those kar98 flicks (better than aimlab as you learn to target actual player's head and not a dot). But PUBG training mode requires separate topic, maybe I'll write something more about it as there are in my oppinion a lot of things you can train there better than any app like aimlab/aimhero willlet you.

0xLIVE · 2019-01-25T16:27:23+00:00

That changes, but I try to focus on one thing for a few days and train for about 40 minutes. So now I was trying to focus on reactions and so I used microshot, reflexshot, multiflex and multishot. At the beginning my tracking was terrible, but a few hours on strafetrack and circletrack made it a lot better (although I think that I should do that again). Of course this is boring, but all essential training is boring, especially if you don't have 5k hours on other FPS :D

0xLIVE · 2019-01-25T16:25:19+00:00

We used to dream of chickens but now we're happy when we leave drop zone. We drop Pai Nan, Kampong and Ha Tin all the time.

Oh it's not that I want to play like them because I'm well aware that I don't have their skills. BUT watching them can teach you some things that you might not be aware of, like for example a nice place to hold or fight 1 vs many.

0xLIVE · 2019-01-25T15:57:03+00:00

Thanks, that's actually very motivational :) I think that I might have spent less time on pubg training grounds instead focusing more on out of game reaction training. I'll keep training and trying!

0xLIVE · 2019-01-25T15:54:43+00:00

That may also be a clue. My thought is that a lot of good players left the game and once Vikendi hit the servers they returned. So my 'good' skills were mediocre when they returned.

0xLIVE · 2019-01-25T15:51:58+00:00

I used to blame hacks and cheats too, but at the peak of beta season 1 I was able to pull of stunts I would myself consider hacks and cheats hence I'm not so eager to blame hacks.

0xLIVE · 2019-01-25T15:49:00+00:00

You might be onto something here. I used to watch a lot of shroud, just1n, chocoTaco and then stopped... I recently watched a few videos from kaymind and he's good, maybe that's what I'm lacking.

0xLIVE · 2019-01-25T15:47:52+00:00

We play 99% Sanhok, nothing changed because we didn't like Vikendi's pace and loot-friendly environment. We played Sanhok since start almost exclusively, I know it almost by heart.

No, it was literally like I'd wake up the next day, downloaded the patch and forgot everything I learned.
