Had a lot of fun playing against hacker squads tonight, and gotta say, they are obvious as gently caress. https://plays.tv/video/5a4349a17a3107f6f8/hacker-team https://plays.tv/video/5a43617cd5532b0859/yet-another-hacker-squad

I can play FPP on Erangel, but on Miramar it's sort of an absolute hell when in vehicles. The viewpoint over terrain bumps around enough that it's a bit sickening (and I don't usually get motion sickness in games at all). It's even more evident when you use the motorcycle or the buggy. Similarly it's why shooting from vehicles is absolute dogshit. Shotguns are the order of the day there.

Rodenthar Drothman posted:I haven't been 100% keeping up with the thread, but have they hosed up the damage calculations? I sometimes body blast a dude with a shotgun early match (once last night I saw him land properly and not take damage) and get <20 hit points or something. If you're talking about shotguns specifically I believe one pellet is counted as the 'seed' pellet where all the damage is calculated from. Hit somebody in the arm, that's going to do all limb damage. Hit points in end of round calculations is done by 5 hp to the point. 20 points of damage is one outright kill from 100 to 0.

flatluigi posted:Nobody thinks there's no cheating, it's just that the last several dozen times someone's posted ~inarguable proof~ that someone cheated by posting an anecdote or a killcam clip it turns out to be much more arguable than they believed. Yeah, you sort of need replays in order to actually reliably prove somebody is hacking. When you have the ability to see where all the player positions are in hindsight and then can see the guy you think is hacking also know ahead of time then it becomes pretty easy to spot. https://plays.tv/video/5a43617cd5532b0859/yet-another-hacker It's fairly obvious in this one. You can see three things: 1) he can see every player's position, and he's swiveling his head super obviously on it to track. This might or might help him as you see in 2) when a player is in view, he has an aimbot which allows him to get reliable shots on target no matter the distance. Said aimbot also hosed up and almost got him killed by tracking a player that wasn't engaging him 3 separate times in 5 seconds 3) at no point does this guy actually ADS while on the move against people. This most likely means he has an aimbot and/or a no recoil hack to offset the 3rd person accuracy penalty. Party Plane Jones fucked around with this message at 20:30 on Jan 2, 2018 |

Groovelord Neato posted:i've died at least five times because i thought an enemy was one of my teammates. The nice thing about the old teammate color scheme was that it was garish enough that you wouldn't shoot them out of hand (or delay yourself from shooting them) like you might with the new one. Squad member #1 (yellow) just blends the gently caress into 95% of Miramar's backgrounds.

Odobenidae posted:There's a new bug that has scared the absolute poo poo out of me a couple of times already. Sometimes when you kill someone their body will continue to make noise as if there was a live player there. I killed a guy who must've been lying prone, because when I went to loot him it sounded like there was someone prone crawling in spot where he died. Nobody there when I checked the replay. Until the dude's ragdoll despawned there was also a endless stream of syringes that kept appearing, dropping, and then rolling down the hill. Maybe he was using a first aid when I killed him and the animation just kept looping without him? Back when the game first came into early access there was a THUD as the game randomly thought you were being shot (for no damage) that happened a looooooooot of the time. Drove people insane.

cinci zoo sniper posted:What's thread take on M4 vs SCAR? Scar is more useful as a psuedo sniper rifle and takes less attachments than the M416 to make amazing; its bullets do more impact than other AR variants (eg if you hit somebody it throws off their aim more). M4 is probably what you want up close since the recoil pattern is a bit easier.

Anything I should know or add to my launch options to help with the inconsistent performance that I remember this game having? Remove all previous launch options and settings, the performance has increased a lot since then and any old stuff you have going on will probably cause problems.

It took them forever and a day to get BF4 to a playable state though and the amount of hilarity in Frostbite from the smaller EA studios (lol mass effect) but yeah EA is probably overtiming one of their studios to design a BR game.

Perestroika posted:Is there a particular reason why hacking is apparently so much more common in FPP than TPP? Is it just that the latter is more populated? You wrote it the other way around than it is currently is but basically: When you move, your accuracy blooms in third person (crosshair gets larger). Third person firing is less accurate by design even without moving. (this changed within the first couple months of EA, previously you had 1:1 accuracy in TPP/FPP) Aimbots hackers use remove both of these restrictions.

Regrettable posted:I'm pretty sure the reason people are being arrested is because they're selling the cheats for money which is illegal AFAIK. They're being arrested because Tencent is a sizeable part of the Chinese tech/gaming sector and therefore the CCP has an interest in them so when they signed on as a distributor PUBG got backing it wouldn't have gotten otherwise. edit: lol china https://streamable.com/xrl17 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa https://streamable.com/w9msi Party Plane Jones fucked around with this message at 07:03 on Jan 17, 2018 |

Doorknob Slobber posted:Back in the day when people played Action Half-Life there was this clan called BORG that trolled people a lot. So I guessed the password to one of their ICQ accounts and from there found out they had a file server which had a bunch of the default models, but spiked so that big red lines would stick through walls and poo poo. Essentially a ghetto wall hack. I distributed them to everyone to use against them. Those were good times. This was sort of still a thing in the days of CSS, people would run wallhack skins until Valve finally got their head out of their rear end and changed sv_pure to always on (sv_pure forces players to always use the server's version of files).

They can and they have a ready made excuse in great firewall of china. Like seriously WOW and EVE and a shitheap of MMOs all have specific chinese regions. DrNutt posted:Did they? Thank Christ it was going to take forever to rebound from my initially terrible k/d Singles/Duos FPP stats aren't exactly gone, there just aren't visible leaderboards for it at the moment.

I think the ping the site spits back is accurate but a lot of the time its not even close to what you'll experience in game. Its hosed up that there is no in game method to check your ping. It's not the ping that's the main problem, it's tickrate. When tickrate drops down to like 2 in the final zones (not hyperbole) it just compounds everything.
