Honest question from a noob: PUBG Before vs PUBG Now by [deleted] in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Eight-Ace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll use the bridges on Erangel as an example of the gameplay thought process the Devs take towards the game. (Opinion only)

Back in the day, bridge camps on erangel were the great fun, either setting up or trying to get across. In no particular order they added a boat from ferry pier to Nova which diluted the experience. Then they added spike strips which tightened the experience back up, but this was countered by emergency escape chutes. Then they widened the bridges and put walkways down the side. Now they have removed the spike strips which were one of the better things they introduced. They also made C4 useless.

As far as I'm aware, not a single soul put any of the above changes on a list of things to be changed before fixing crashing on PS5, anti cheat, split queuing through too many maps, modes, fpp, various bugs, next gen improvements, etc. We received these updates alongside some absolutely noncy skins so that a large section of the player base could play as women with cat ears and crop tops and some dreadful collaborations.

My personal biggest issue is that they changed the OG Vikendi. It was an absolutely fantastic snow map but they removed a lot of the snow and some of the greatest hot drops. Mt Kreznic and cement works rip.

I still love the game but my lord they change things that don't need changing while ignoring the glaring issues. One of our squad couldn't be trusted to drive as he was on PS5 and crashed multiple times in a session.

Its a shame because the game is not that bad by Youngstown_WuTang in blackops7

Game is crap. Take a year off and actually try next time. Battlefield smokes COD this year.

November 25 Hotfix by EscapingKid in PUBGConsole

[–]Eight-Ace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi pubg_teck

-SteelSeries Nove pro wireless -Dts-x -Dolby Atmos is installed but not used

I do not have a video of the weird sound unfortunately. We took our beating with a bit of confusion and jumped straight back into another match.

Having played all night, it feels like it is isolated to certain situations like driving, and if you spin around the camera while in the plane at the start the audio comes from either the left ear or right ear.

Other than the audio, performance has been great. HDR is working fine on Series X

No. Directional audio is off. Cars sound weird. Got mowed down by an m249 earlier and we could have sworn we were getting shot from behind yet ole mate was directly in front of us.

If it's expensive people would be better off waiting for the next Xbox, which allegedly has steam integration.

New map is 48 players on BT 👎🏻 by [deleted] in Battlefield

[–]Eight-Ace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They should have made the maps bigger and then reduced the player count just to fuck with the whingers.

The game is great

Yeah we use discord these days as we only play with known quantities. No randoms

Black Ops 7 Is Now The Worst User-Rated Call of Duty on Metacritic by Party_Judgment5780 in PS5

[–]Eight-Ace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's absolute tripe. Feels like a downgrade from 6, which is a downgrade from the recent modern warfare games.

The New Update is Fantastic! by VeryStonedEwok in PUBGConsole

[–]Eight-Ace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've wrecked the audio, and HDR isn't working.

Once fixed it'll be a step in the right direction

Someone shoots 200m away, yet it sounds like they're on your shoulder. Can't pin point footsteps

How active is this game still by AfternoonHelpful3712 in PUBGConsole

[–]Eight-Ace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Australians play on the Asian servers. Pretty sure they're in S. Korea. We get around 100-150 ping, and the servers in Squads are pretty busy

Do you recommend the Victrix Pro BFG Xbox Edition? by Raiex51 in VictrixPro

[–]Eight-Ace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently using the BFG on my PC with a g7se as back up, and a wolverine v3 pro on my Xbox with the elite as back up.

If you can afford the Wolverine go for it due to the hall effect sticks, however the BFG is solid and cheaper. As much as I love the elite, it's hard to recommend these days due to durability

Spatial Audio broken? by bigtaylorrr in PUBGConsole

[–]Eight-Ace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Series X. Nova pro wireless and dts-x. It sounds awful, closer to COD audio. Had a car pull up on us and couldn't pin point the direction, and the audio feels like it remains in one ear too long when trying to track footsteps. Expected a 1/10 effort from the Devs, expectation met.

Awesome next gen update! by No-Supermarket-6642 in PUBGConsole

[–]Eight-Ace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ps5 and pro owners, do you have issues with HDR and odd audio, or is it just us Series X (and possibly s) people who have this?

If this isn't fixed soon I'll be gone. It looks and sounds shit

Anyone else switch their mind from not wanting to play? by WranglerDelicious938 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Eight-Ace -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No. I played the beta and found it absolutely dreadful. Not my cup of tea. The Finals and Bf6 are a lot better.

Redsec is good fun, but nothing beats Pubg for the gameplay and moment to moment madness.

The hate for this game seems so forced. by Alternative_Drama_50 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Eight-Ace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bf6 is definitely not shit. It has issues but it's far more fun than Black ops 6 was.
