The cheaters have definitely gotten worse lately. Seems like since they started announcing how many they're banning I'm just seeing more and more. Funny that.

Less cheaters in FPP. I think. I’m not good enough to get matchmade with a ton of them.

Also why I had been playing a ton on the Asian server for a while.

While that's true, and I prefer FPP, I play with a few folks who don't so we tend to alternate depending on who's around.

I think FPP is waaay better for the obvious reasons, but I think TPP can still be fun. I probably play 20% TPP and 80% FPP.

Tpp is fine and fun there are just way less cheaters in fpp. I haven’t encountered a single one and I’ve hit quite a few in tpp.

UWBW and I were playing duo yesterday and we wound up in an odd stalemate: we were in an attic on the edge NW of the island, covering their car while they were blocking the stairs out. Now mind you, we knew where they were long before the standoff because one had his mic on constantly. Chinese team chat and constant, wet chewing noises as they wondered why the bottom floor was looted.

We shot at each other a bit and UWBW wound up being the only uninjured party out of the four of us.

They offered to be a team with us. Nope. Then they offered to leave peacefully as the zone excluded all four of us. Sure enough, we heard two pairs of footsteps walked out of the house, into the grass... and stop. We knew they were right outside the door because the smack smack chomp smack swallow of the open mic gave away their position. UWBW called them out and they shut up. They then proceeded to get in the car, shrug off a mag of AK and drive straight into the ocean and drown. Bonus: they went in the opposite direction of the boat UWBW wound up snagging.

We died soon after but man that was certainly a fun one.

Since hits are client side would the cover even block shots? Whenever I had that bug where stuff didn't render in I could shoot people behind cover most of the time.

The cover is still there physically, it looks like it just screws with LOD, which overly simplified translation is if really far away objects render at x distance. Looks like they just turn it to like, 50 meters or something instead of the standard...1000? For example. If you scope in you'd see the cover pop into view all of a sudden.

Probably makes it absolute hell for driving with trees and rocks popping up everywhere instantly.

Guessing all this will get patched real soon with the test serv update.

So apparently AFK multi-boxing or botting is now a thing that is especially rampant in Asia. I started noticing it last season, we'd drop in Pochinki with other squads, only to not see any of them for 10 minutes. Eventually we'd clear every single house and find them just standing there and not reacting to us. We'd kill em, of course, but it's not very sporting. It's really unfortunate that the grand majority of the problems with this game are coming almost exclusively from China. I really hope the Chinese government goes ahead and bans the game.

Mode chat: I hit 600 hours a couple of days ago and I like both modes. 3PP is more fun to play, FPP is less fun but more tactically interesting and feels fairer. I think FPP squads will emerge as the clear tournament format.

Hackers are getting insane on OC servers though and they really need to do something about it. At the absolute minimum, servers need to be ping locked because the vast majority of cheaters are from china.

I'm not keen on a pinglock, I much prefer playing squads on NA with goons simply because it's far easier to get a full squad of people who at the very least can listen to instructions. Maybe if it only applied to the lobby leader that would work best.
