Player Unknown's Battlegrounds

[zanner]

Pardon if there's a thread I haven't noticed on for this game- but wanted to start one and see if any other OSers are playing this game and thoughts.

The game is a battle Royale game where you and 99 other players (can play solo, duo, three or four teammates) are dropped onto an island where the objective is to loot buildings for guns, ammo, armor, healthkits and then basically PvP to be the last man standing in the end.

It's like H1z1 king of hill mode is what I hear. I've never played a battle Royale game so this is my first and the few play sessions have been a great time especially with grouping with on of my friends and playing on duo servers against others. From some of feedback it sounds like even as an early access game it's arguably the best battle Royale on the market right now.

I usually play with a real life friend but would be interested in joining others or playing a three or four man group if any others play (I admit I'm not the best at the moment still new and getting my bearings having not a lot of time played yet) . Steam name : zanner03

It seems to be a bit more realistic vs. H1Z1...I've seen a good amount of videos and streams and it looks really fun.

I believe it's supposed to come out on console? Hopefully there is a good player base as I'd like to get it.

I can't keep up with these type of games.......This game, H1ZI, Escape from Tarkalav etc all look the same to me. I know they are quite popular on Twitch. But yes it suppose to come on consoles later this year or next year.

Ended up picking it up after some self debate. I'm usually pretty bad at these games but I used to have fun with the Arma Mod back in the day. I'm really enjoying this even though it is poorly optimized and comes with it's caveats. Those are to be expected though as it is in Early Access.

I like the map setup a little better than King of the Kill and I enjoy the way they mark the circle you're supposed to get to on the map. I think that makes it easier for new players to find their way around without having to read quadrants and directions on a map.

re: Player Unknown's Battlegrounds

I never played one of these before but do like this. Definitely itely not optimized I run everything on medium .

Be sure to turn the foliage down to very low until they fix it. Reason being is that everyone is playing on low and it'll save you the frustration of wondering how someone saw you proned in the weeds. I.

Yeah, optimization is priority #1-100 for the dev team...I also think the circle can be a tad too much at the latter stages with how hard it hits and how fast it shrinks.

Otherwise, I like the game mechanics. Gun play, strategy and forecasting is how to win the game.

I've been playing it since the early alpha, its basically a slightly more realistic H1Z1. Its a really good battle royale style game if you are into those such as H1 or the ARMA 3 mod. Here is a couple recaps from the streams.

I think it was probably my 15th game overall, but Tracer and I did it in duos. It's a good feeling.

re: Player Unknown's Battlegrounds

Very cool . My friend I play with won one. The best I've done and we've done as duo so far is 6th and 5th place.

re: Player Unknown's Battlegrounds

I'll admit I'm interested in this game.

The only thing that's really keeping me from buying it is that I don't really see what's different between this game and King of the Kill/the ARMA mod

Here's an IGN article on why so many people like the game. http://ca.ign.com/articles/2017/04/1...-battlegrounds

re: Player Unknown's Battlegrounds

The game is a total blast. I've never really played Battle Royal style games before and have only gotten as high as 4th, but the game is really fun. It's just so intense. Play solo or duos with my buddy, each mode is pure fun.

At first I was worried it'd be annoying having to start a new match every death, but the game is so addicting I've just been starting a new match as soon as one ends.

Seems like mixed reactions on the first patch but I've noticed the game running significantly smoother. And have done better overall.

I haven't bought this yet but i'm addicted to watching streams lol. I'm going to buy it soon. This would be a hit on consoles which I hear may get it later.

First Win Baby. As a squad of 3 too. I let out a "Woo!" Ric Flair would be proud of when I got that screen. Such an intense firefight at the end.

This game is a lot of fun, and I can say judging from the 37 hours steam says I've played of it so far I've already gotten my value to dollar money's worth out of it. Just a blast!

re: Player Unknown's Battlegrounds

I've heard a possibility of this coming to console and man I hope that's true. This game is so fun to watch I can't imagine how great it is to play
