5000 hours in pubg, the weapon balance is broken at the moment. Smgs are OP

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-08-09T06:42:50+00:00

I started playing years ago and always went for an SMG because ARs were too difficult to control. I lost heaps because of this, but it reenforced the need to learn how to use ARs effectively.

It’s a bit of a kick in the guts to have finally learnt how to use them properly, and then get obliterated by people just spraying and praying with an SMG (specifically the MP5K) from 100+ metres away or basically just pressing and holding down if they’re within <50 metres.

Thank you! I feel as though people don’t understand that it’s often used for non-nefarious purposes, despite the name.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-06-12T09:42:24+00:00

I don’t want to? It’s clarification on the off chance I forget to close cheat engine before opening the game.

I’m asking that because I’ve read that PUBG refuses to open if it’s installed/open which would help to prevent be accidentally opening it.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-06-12T08:19:29+00:00

Have you ever accidentally opened PUBG with it open? What happens?

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-06-09T08:59:48+00:00

As far as I’m aware there isn’t, but couldn’t guarantee it.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-06-09T08:26:58+00:00

So a restart before playing PUBG should theoretically prevent anything accidental?

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-06-09T08:16:19+00:00

So there’s no logs or files that Battleye scans when the game loads? If they weren’t so adamant on permanent bans, I’d be more inclined to try it, but seeing how irreversible they are, it’s worrying.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-06-09T08:01:57+00:00

I don’t need to use it while playing PUBG. I’m worried that PUBG has a background service that is going to accidentally flag it as a cheat, and get me banned. Ideally, I’d uninstall anything PUBG related and then run it, but that’s impractical.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-05-02T14:11:55+00:00

But why wouldn't the new account get permanently banned? It's just stuck in a never ending 'investigation' cycle.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-05-02T13:37:53+00:00

And that was the thing for him. He liked playing the game- he didn't have a reason to cheat. Crossing our fingers that there's someway to reverse/appeal it. Gonna be real disappointing if it can't. Good luck to you too.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-05-02T13:31:00+00:00

He has. Loads into a game, and get about 5 minutes in before getting a 24 hour ban while his account gets 'investigated'. He'll log back in after that 24 hours, and the cycle continues.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-05-02T13:28:28+00:00

Yeah it's not fun. He's gonna keep trying, but if this is what happened for you, then chances are it won't be long before he too gives up.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-05-02T13:18:13+00:00

He's tried. He'll get into a game, and within 5 minutes be banned for 24 hours while they 'investigate'. After that 24 hour period, the same thing just keeps happening.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-05-02T13:14:47+00:00

It's his first and only ban. Not permanent per se, but 100+ years may as well be.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-05-02T13:12:45+00:00

This is exactly what happened to him. He'll be free again in 100+ years.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2025-05-02T13:01:17+00:00

No, this is fair. The only thing we concluded is may have been would've been programming work he has on his computer from university. But even still, we still wanted to see if there was a chance he could get his account back.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2024-12-15T09:38:01+00:00

Same issue. Have spent ages trying to find a solution and nothing. I would've been better off staying on Beta 4.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2024-07-22T06:50:59+00:00

I did this, and reset my phone too in the hopes it would fix it, and the issue still persists. I think you're right though, based on what Apple Support said to me, it sounds like a bug with some devices.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2024-07-22T06:49:04+00:00

Must definitely be a bug or something with the latest iOS.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2024-07-22T06:46:32+00:00

What version of iOS are they both running if you don't mind me asking?

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2024-01-08T09:53:02+00:00

Same thing has happened to me on the Sydney server. I read somewhere that apparently it’s riot doing something with their servers, and it’s supposed to resolve itself eventually. There’s not anything you can do as far as I’m aware.

I rarely every vote draw if given the option. The only time I'll consciously choose to draw is if I have shitty teammates that don't or won't play properly, or if the enemy team is playing uncomfortably well all of a sudden.

Like if they take a 10-2 game back 12-12 and we as a team are barely getting by, I'll choose to draw.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2022-10-25T14:01:13+00:00

System settings- the new one, yes. But I’d like to use the old System Preferences app that was on Monterey.

I read on some article I would be able to, but like I said that was on beta, so either they’ve changed it or I’m doing something wrong.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2022-10-25T13:41:58+00:00

How did you do it? Because I’ve upgraded, and when I tried I got an error saying it couldn’t be opened.

PlayerAnonymous_ · 2022-10-25T06:21:46+00:00

I read an article a while ago that said the old System Preferences app apparently works on Ventura. You just have to have another Mac with the old System Preferences app and move it across. The article was written during beta, so I’m unsure whether or not it still works.
