I'm not being a dick, I am sincerely curious where the hacking is in that first video? He is third personing you to death from that bus all he can? Or who am I spectating? I don't know how the replay works.

look at the name of the guy who posted and then the guy in the bus.

edit: did they finally figure out how to ban speedhackers? I'm wondering why all these people are just playing with esp+aimhacks. do they think that makes them 'good' or something

The really bad aimbotters/wallhackers will keep shooting at where you are which makes them obvious and stupid. You can bait them in to needing to reload and then headshot them back.

This does rely on them being an actual idiot kid with hacks as anyone with a brain will just laser you instantly.

I got this for Xbox and when I tried playing it my living room caught on fire. I turned and saw the Xbox levitating and spinning in the center of the room, and heard ear deafening cries of some kid complaining about stream snipers. I kept yelling Xbox turn off, but it did not work.

Is my game bugged? I heard the PC release was also bad. I hope they patch this out.

Start of the business day in Hong Kong/Asia so they can have everybody working on fixing any problems that pop up. 6pm PST translates to 10 AM HK time.

Why do I want this game on an SSD? There's like a minute countdown before the game even starts, shouldn't that be enough for map loading and all that jazz?

Also: if the game crashes you can still get back in the active session you had going.

Assuming that's true (which is entirely possible), it also the highest viewer count on streams where they get a bunch of their advertising for free? I mean half of Asia plays on NA anyway. It seems odd that it would have the highest footprint on twitch in primetime and then a lower playerbase, but stranger things have happened.

If it's just "start of the business day" though, that's incompetence. They sure make enough money to have people work a different schedule once in awhile. It comes with the territory of being a super-successful dev.

The higher viewer counts on twitch, which is not the only streaming site nor the most popular one in China or Korea (though that may have changed)

It's not. NA prime time is their lowest traffic market.

Who knows! They haven't released the patch note as of yet (the tweet mentions player positioning problem reduction which I guess translates to rubberbanding)

Can you do anything about the game just straight up not giving you your BP at the end of a round?

It has done it to me before but it just ate 450-odd on me from a 3rd place finish and i'm finding the 'ole Early Access charm to be wearing off with this thing.

It's a known (lol) bug but they haven't done poo poo with it since release so you might expect something done today and if not in the New Year.

I think it's from top ten that you aren't receiving BP. I can't give a gently caress about it though. I enjoy playing the game for fun, not to grind loot boxes

I assume the bug is the one where your character randomly ends up with their viewpoint stuck at the crouch height even when standing? The only way I know to trigger it consistently (though it seems to pop up occasionally on its own) is to get on a motorcycle directly from the prone position. Which also makes your viewpoint on the bike way too high while you're driving.

Yeah, I split it on the test server as soon as it was offered. Sometimes I want to jump on a railing, not climb over it.

This has been happening to me a lot when landing on roofs. It's happened when landing on those giant flat square warehouses so it's not like I'm hitting something on my way down. It only takes like a tiny sliver of health but it's still annoying.

^^^ Last night was the first time I'd ever seen the "Cut Parachute" prompt because I got stuck on the corner of a building. Parachuting is weird when the rubber banding is high.

Last night was me dropping hot, getting 0-2 kills then getting headshot rounding a corner. Happened for legitimately 10 games in a row. My badness score is through the roof :ohdear:

(I think I was playing way too aggressively and wasn't using alternate routes. Pretty much in every kill cam my killer was waiting for me to come around the corner because they heard my footsteps or I had been in a prior engagement with them.)
