Most killcams are jittery even without cheats though... Unrelated: what is up with all the one-way fences on miramar  e: idk if they're one-way or just impenetrable but either wat they're dumb

Rex-Goliath posted:Nah the replay functionality is real janky and almost everyone looks like they're cheating with it. It's only useful if you get killed unexpectedly and want to know how you hosed up. I check it to see how much damage I dealt after I lose a duel sometimes. But yeah, there really isn't much use to killcams other than those two uses, and 'mine' is pretty arbitrary at that. Really, dudes, everyone looks like they're cheating in killcams. If you really think there are that many, just play FPP for the time being.

Elman posted:I don't get this. You need to move to get to the middle of the circle and there's more action there. A lot of the time I find the choice is between moving around and being active to get near the middle, or sitting near the edge camping, hoping to catch stragglers as they walk by. How is the latter more fun? I prefer dropping in a contested place and just running towards gunfire from then on. No one in their right mind should bother engaging people in houses - especially in game modes other than solos - so while the shooting gallery can be fun, it just doesn't get very intense. I like being on the move and not always fighting on my own terms

AppleDan posted:"no one ever cheats" is more aggravating than "everyone cheats" at this point. People think the only form of hacking is blatantly speedhacking around hipfiring 80 headshots a minute. It's come to the point where it seems like every conversation on hacking is scripted, invariably someone will chime in with "that doesnt look suspicious at all, gosh no one wants to admit they got outplayed/maybe youre just bad????". No you're completely right, this game doesn't have a massive cheater problem it has to be everyone who plays this game can't admit to being bad. This isn't what is happening at all. The recurring situation is that someone posts a video that is hardly conclusive, at which point people respond by saying that that video is hardly conclusive. Yes, there's loads of cheaters, but there are so many situations where people just get lucky, hit a once in a lifetime shot, the game is janky, the killcam 'contradicts' itself in the sense that only one shot in particular seems strange where the rest seem to indicate regular gameplay, or the killcam is just janky overall, resulting in a questionable kill. It's also not about everyone being bad, it's about a knee-jerk reaction goons (but not just goons!) have that results in almost anything that cannot instantly be explained away being called cheats which, honestly, often just comes down to being bad at losing. It's simple: the game is a janky mess and a lot of weird poo poo happens in it in general, but the takeaway should be that losses are blamed on cheats much more often than they should be, which is bad because it results in the dismissal of any player error leading up to that loss, which in turn hampers improvement. Think about it, how many times a day do you hit a shot where you think "well, that was bullshit luck/glitchy/the best shot of my life, that guy will be fuming when he sees the deathcam"? Maybe I should speak for myself, but I have that happen quite regularly. As for those two videos, yeah, those are ridiculous. The latter especially is instantly clear, but that's just because recoil is weird as hell in replays and I (like HOH) haven't seen a killcam of a no-recoil hack before. Rex-Goliath posted:On top of the no-recoil the biggest tell is that after making a shitload of noise he immediately puts his gun away to run for a loot box that's at least 200 m away. So he clearly has no idea what he's doing I know you're probably (half-)joking but this is exactly the kind of mental gymnastics that goons do during their assessment of whether someone was cheating, even though there are countless reasons for people to do stuff like that which are all much more likely than "poo poo decision-making yet he shot me in the head so he must've had help aiming" (e.g. he hit a lucky spray, he was confidently aware of his surroundings, circle is coming in, he needs meds badly, he hasn't had a kar all night and this is his last game and he's desperately hoping there is one on the corpse, etc). That's why people keep saying poo poo's inconclusive. Lex Neville fucked around with this message at 19:34 on Jan 2, 2018 |

AppleDan posted:This is exactly what i'm talking about. "blamed on cheats more often than they should be" "being bad at losing" "maybe I should speak for myself", there are 3 different "ur just bad lol"s in this paragraph alone. Yes the game is a janky mess, which makes it easier to cheat in it. As clear as those videos are you can still see people debating whether or not theyre legit. My phrasing wasn't the best but if that's what you gather from my post then let's just agree to disagree. My main point was that I believe it's beneficial for both my enjoyment playing this game as well as my improvement at it to not blame poo poo on cheats whenever I'm unable to instantly find an explanation for the other person's behaviour, especially because everyone gets lucky or outdoes themselves occasionally and the game itself fucks with what should and shouldn't happen, as well as with the way we get to see things in deathcams. e. In response to this: The Slack Lagoon posted:Why do people lean while shooting when they're in the open? I posted this way back in the old thread but: for me it's just force of habit and occasionally it helps with visibility. I find that, especially on the (old?) 4x, the verticle markers get in the way sometimes and leaning can help when they do. Lex Neville fucked around with this message at 20:05 on Jan 2, 2018 |

That first one is really well played, especially that smooth jump up. Did you end up dying to the zone? The second has lovely spray control+transfer (although you did kinda let your friend die with that greedy first aid!). Nice clips.

Actually entirely dependent on the situation and your ability to gauge whether it's worth it or not in the heat of the moment. Definitely not a bad thing to consider if your situational awareness is good and you're comfortable with swapping attachments on the fly quickly.

DrNutt posted:What was this all about? I saw people in the discord talking about it, but I received nothing so I assume it had something to do with playing and spending BP during a particular time frame or something? There was a period where no BP was awarded. They're reimbursing it now. I believe it was around christmas.

daslog posted:This is my argument for using a suppressor. This is me getting hosed by a Suppressed SCAR. I'm sure a better player would have been able to find the sound sooner, but all I could hear was the bullets flying by my head and hitting the ground. ~175? Seems like there's a dude on the crest of the hill, but it's hard to see. You could definitely hear the shots coming from the south rather than north/west, though. Also, holy poo poo that guy is bad. e: the numbers on the compass suck when you're not directly looking at them Lex Neville fucked around with this message at 03:36 on Jan 12, 2018 |

It's based on the in-game leaderboards but it really doesn't say much. It's pretty easy to climb and my experience is that I never noticed a difference in other players' skill between when I played seriously and was top 50 and now, where I gently caress around and am 'just' top 10%. It feels like there's really only two brackets: new players and not-new players. The consistency with which people manage to stream snipe kinda seems to confirm that notion as well. Going for rank can be a fun way to push yourself though, although honestly it does wear you out after a while.

I have noticed we run into WAY more cheaters when playing between 2-5am PST, during more normal hours we almost never see them That's hilarious cause it almost seems like the weirdest bug ever. The spot he snaps towards in the replay after downing the third guy isn't even on the same screen as your friend, let alone in your general direction. That's one hell of a speedy aimkey.

The point where you stop looting should be based on time rather than items and depends on the game, but is generally "well before the third circle" at the latest.
