Also, I'm not trying to say that hardware trumps skill, but lovely hardware can and will hinder you a lot when it matters.

i like the implication that a 1080 is some bare minimum baby-tier graphics card and not the best you can buy short of a Titan

Also, if everyone is experiencing FPS drops in firefights, then the playing field is level from a hardware perspective so your actual general FPS skill and PUBG specific skills will be what put you ahead of others. I mean seriously, are people attempting to argue that an average person that plays games for 4 hours a week can be just as good as shroud who plays >40hrs a week, provided they have the same setup as him? Is this actually a thing being argued here? MF_James fucked around with this message at 22:12 on May 29, 2018 |

The original implication was that someone like Shroud is so good because they can afford the greatest hardware. I mean, yes, he would be a lot worse if he had to play on an ascii-only terminal, so for some definition of "hardware makes the gamer" thats pretty true.

John DiFool posted:Having consistently high frame rates is definitely an advantage. If your machine starts stuttering or dropping frames in a firefight then it becomes extremely difficult to retain accurate control over mouse movement and recoil compensation. Dropping frames literally as the gunfire of CQB erupts (I'm not a programmer but that is what happens and I'm assuming they're related ) is the single biggest reason I'm back to playing more overwatch than PUBG. Love the game, just need an up to date PC to really love playing it.

I have an i7 920 with a 1070 and 8gbs of slow as gently caress ram, and I've found since March/April my performance has been much better than it was in beta/early release. I do have everything on low except for anti-aliasing, and it seems to run fine. The only stutters I get are when I manually cut a shadowplay clip, but that's probably because the clips are being sent to a HDD and not an SSD. I also have my monitor overclocked to 96hz so that's where I'm trying to get my frames, and it's not consistent, but I haven't been as disappointed with performance considering my CPU crippling my GPU.

Fuzz1111 posted:If you aren't overclocking that thing you should be (they tended to overclock better than the other CPUs of that series) going from 2.66 to 3.6ghz should be pretty easy and might not even need extra volts. Hahah, exactly, I've got mine pushed to 3.55 right now because it would lock up past 6. This thing is a beast, I've had it for 9 years, holy poo poo. And yeah, I have actually considered buying an old xeon, but haven't really felt the desire to for an extra 400 mhz. I'm probably going to be building a threadripper build next year because I'm starting to do more video work and I would like to be able to render at home. I'm just happy to hit the 90~100 frames area tbh, but it is a bit disheartening to know my video card is being bottlenecked. Can't be helped, my 7970 died and I had to replace it. e- If anyone has a korean 27-inch 1440p monitor, overclock that poo poo.

Good change regarding the m24, it's an upgrade over the k98 because of bullet velocity but otherwise it was one of the shittiest package options.

The M24 does a ton of damage with a bodyshot currently, dunno how the damage nerf will effect that. Seems like you'll just take whatever sniper you find and not really worry about it unless you're better at hitting headshots with one or the other.

Flea Bargain posted:M24 is still the best because of the way it sounds when silenced, unff Totally agree. A silencer is the best attachment for the M24. Also the M24 just generally operates faster than the KAR which makes it a joy to use.
