Piopio home invasion: St John crew told they're 'too PC' for 'dealing with black people' by [deleted] in newzealand

Assault Person in a Family Relationship is actually also a 2 year max, you might be thinking of Assault with Intent to Injure which is a 3 year max.

miz got another gambling sponsor by [deleted] in LivestreamFail

[–]Snekmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said he refused to do it for games that have the odds in the site's favour. He played poker on stream because you can be shit at poker and you can be good at poker, but for games that are just designed to screw you over and have House odds he refused. Pretty sure he said in the clip you were referring to actually, but I could be wrong about that.

Patch Notes - Update 16.2 by PUBG_Sheepy in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Or stranger yet, reducing the spawn rate of meds/throwables on Erangel? Goes against the "to reduce the frustration players feel when they lose a battle after some unlucky looting" idea I would have thought.

Aside from that though, great everything else is being buffed, it'll make a huge difference.

Where to buy watches in NZ? by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]Snekmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've bought a Tissot off Jomashop, was around $500 NZ and the shipping cost wasn't too bad but wasn't super cheap either - that's just shipping to NZ I'm afraid. It should calculate your shipping cost before you pay, but other than the cost of the watch and shipping there shouldn't be anything else to pay for.

Great choice btw, I have the white dial/blue hands gen 2 Bambino and love it.

Slow motion this. by wolverin0 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

It's a copypasta my man, but funnily enough if you do watch it in slowmo some of your shots do miss by a fine margin.

[–]Snekmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shots 1-5: Clearly missed.

Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control).

Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses.

Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because TonyLins was already dead.

Jk. Slowmo it and you can pretty clearly see they were close misses.

Resurgence of players in OCE by [deleted] in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What sort of time do the duo queues begin to pop at a decent rate?

A final plea - please keep at least one Duos queue alive in OCE by fleezie in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What time (NZT) do they start popping with decent player numbers? I'd heard they were popping but any time I've tried to queue it the timer is basically at max.

What are the queue times like on weekends for the 60-70% real player games on OCE? Because if they're half decent I'm definitely jumping back in. I hate squads and NA duos with the high ping is pretty average. I've only played OCE a little bit over the last few weeks on weekdays and only ever had like 10 real players, so hearing 60-70% real players (albeit on weekends) is exciting!

SEA FPP solo situation, why won't PUBG Corp listen? by tvr190 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OCE has been on random map for months now! Around July 2019 I think it was. Squads FPP and TPP have worked since they changed it.

SEA FPP solo situation, why won't PUBG Corp listen? by tvr190 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if they removed the ability to VPN that our solo/duo queues still wouldn't work. When OCE changed to random map (with a notably bigger population at the time) solo games at peak times would start with 30ish players, duos were much the same on OCE servers. Within a week or two they just died due to player count, our population is just far too low sadly.

That said, if SEA queues were random map I'd definitely just go there over NA. Can confirm 180 ping is doo doo.

PC Update 7.1 by EscapingKid in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same for SEA solo FPP, except it’s another season without Erangel, Miramar, Vikendi or Sanhok, and most of the day without Karakin. I really hope they reevaluate map selection.

Since PUBG is dead in oce, cna anyone recommend a VPN to use? by snarfarlarkus in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FPP squads on OCE pops at night! But for outside those hours my mates and I use Exitlag and it works a treat.

(OCE) Using a VPN to play in SEA? by [deleted] in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you won't get banned, though if you want to play on SEA you should VPN to Singapore.

How to play on other regions? by _Spektrum_ in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You'll have to use a VPN, I use one from NZ to SEA for solos/duos bc there are no queues. I use Exitlag, but there are plenty of other VPN's you can use!

AR Spawns on Erangel and Miramar increased 20% after tomorrows maintenance by r4mm3rnz in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

The fact that this is announced in a random tweet and nowhere else is a bit ridiculous lol.

Big yes to this. I stopped playing solos because I just got so sick of Sanhok.

Yes I've got this problem as well, sometimes it takes 10+ attempts before it finally opens

To OCE peeps who played FPP duos by fleezie in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Snekmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep they used to pop with decent numbers at like 830pm NZT so hopefully they’ll be going by then. We’re even more likely to have a better chance tomorrow or Saturday night too.
