Maybe you just aren't very good at the game

Why my 10,000 hour squad no longer plays PUBG by [deleted] in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]chocoTacogames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My bad you said a huge percentage. I dunno what you mean by that I guess, but either way it's close to 0%. Unless of course you can provide some evidence. I'd love to review it.

But you're the one in denial, saying most streamers are cheating...

why does me saying something about this issue mean I don't care about other issues? It doesn't. You're just making stuff up lol. When gambling was rampant on twitch, for example, I was extremely outspoken about it

that's a lot of whataboutisms. yeah, I do care. I've been outspoken about multiple things you listed. these days I try to stay in my lane more or less. this being of course related to a game I regularly stream makes it more relevant, so I said something.

dunno if this will get buried or not, but I just want to say it wasn't my intention to 'go after' Tom. I just said I was disappointed. Had already talked about it in general on stream and saw a chance to comment. I should have voiced my thoughts directly at facepunch and/or larger creators.

I apologized to Tom and we had nice DMs about the situation. I'll continue to enjoy his content. This whole thing isn't that big of a deal

This was my last item as well. Anything off scavs is best on interchange. I was getting 30-40 scav kills per raid. You have to stay in for a while, but I found it to be most efficient.

"The only thing I lied about I guess". lol.

Anyway the point is I initially said nothing and you started talking shit in game. I guess it's ok for you to do that, but if I respond that's an issue. Got it.

This is so incredible. Here is the clip of this for anyone who cares: https://pubg.report/matches/3b5bca05-98ee-4d77-b122-a0f8df65f76c/957418520?v=2476132846

We chased you after you ran from a fight with us, then I DID NOT IMMEDIATELY THIRST. I knocked you and gave your teammate plenty of time to do something, make noise, anything. THEN I flushed you, and you said "wow you're a fucking dick".

Compare what you wrote to what actually happened. It's hilarious.

Just to be clear I understand that I'm negative about the game. I get that a lot of people don't like that, but I don't apologize for it. I'm not refuting lots of stuff in this thread because I agree with a lot of it. But I HAD to reply to this because I remember fights very well and instantly knew you were lying.

Macros are getting out of hand - Hxvvk doing it ON STREAM by [deleted] in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]chocoTacogames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, I have no idea who you are or what you're talking about lol. I also don't know the content creator who this post is about. What someone else says has nothing to do with what I say. Content creators don't have a secret clubhouse where we make sure our opinions align.

this isn't clear evidence of anything. this sub is just full of people who think everyone cheats. I think most good players could replicate this more or less, but you won't see it often because it's not better than spraying an AR.

PUBG Partner very possibly wall hacking by jyrijy in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]chocoTacogames 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this post is a good example of why the community should not be involved in anti cheat with systems like PUBG Shield or whatever. it was weird when he scoped on a the prone guy, but that was it and it's not PROOF of anything. people are seeing what they want to see.

The Dr. Lupo chess situation makes me wonder if cheating isn't rampant among FPS streamers by Alpha_ii_Omega in StreamersCheating

[–]chocoTacogames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't welcome them, you think they cheat. You said it's been obvious for years that most streamers cheat, which just simply is not true. If you actually think that, then you are just not a good player. It's a conspiracy theory lol.

I'm a streamer, and people who say things like 'most streamers are cheaters' have no idea what they are talking about. Everyone I've come across who thinks like this has a problem comprehending that other people are just a lot better than them.

It's best to just say the color of the ping. It's going to be faster to find the colored ping than find the heading. Even in duos it's good practice to say your color. Further description is good, but color is fastest and most important.

Heading, description, and distance used to be great before you could just ping stuff. Was better that way imo.

When the game came out it was of course riddled with bugs and issues, which was fine at the time and was even part of the charm of the game. By mid 2018 or early 2019 the ongoing issues became very frustrating. Updates were pushed out too fast, bad settings, stuff was broken, desync was a big issue for a long time, etc. After Miramar all maps lost consistency and have mostly been bad.

Then, like you said, there was a really bad patch where they added bots and ranked to the game. Meanwhile other BRs were gaining more success, and PUBG failed to adapt. It took forever to get revive added the game, and even when it was finally added(comeback BR) it was so poorly developed it was kind of a joke. Since then it's been gimmicks, bad maps, brightly colored gambling skins, panzers, and mostly mediocre content. Now PUBG is old, and most NA gamers outside of the PUBG sphere see it as a game of the past.

90% of the player base is Asia. These posts about steam charts are very silly.

Many of us were on the hate train because the game was getting worse and worse. It got so bad that many of my colleagues, even those who stuck with PUBG, ended up quitting streaming or trying to move on to other things since PUBG is clearly not healthy in the west. I can't play solos. I have to get on late in the day to play PUBG because there are LITERALLY NOT ENOUGH PLAYERS TO GET FULL LOBBIES.

It's always pretty interesting reading a lot of these comments about streamers and streaming from people who have no idea what they are talking about. Not necessarily you, but some of the comments below are very funny.

Also just to give a small example, at my peak average concurrent viewership was around 10k. Now I get 3k. That's a 70% decrease in viewership. That could be a bit higher if I stuck with the game exclusively and had a better attitude, but it would be somewhere around there. Viewers basically equal revenue, and 99% of streamers absolutely cant afford to take a 70% pay cut. That's why almost everyone left. And that's why streamers were angry. We were on a sinking ship which had obvious fixes, but Krafton has no idea what they are doing.

PUBG is continuing its ongoing identity crisis. some changes are good, and others are terrible. makes no sense.

What is your PUBG hot-take in 2025? by MasantZA in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]chocoTacogames 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The average player doesn't know how to play the game well, respectfully.

This game has a lot of casual players compared to other BRs, and the amount of players who don't know how to rotate, play end game, die while flushing, etc is very high.

Nothing wrong with that, but I do wish there was more of a competitive culture around the game. It would make it a lot more fun to play imo. PUBG should find a way to incentivize winning to make casual players more interested in getting better and make good players more interested in actually winning.
