That and the constant crashes.
Also not getting blood points from games you've crashed during.
I'm having a terrible time with team killing.
I've only played 5 games and been team killed in 3 of them.

No, just a regular Harddrive and 8 GB Ram... then I guess that was the problem.
Sounds good... I haven't play on PC since July or August due to the texture load problems. It's pretty annoying when people start shooting at you and you didn't had a chance to even enter a building.
What I really like in the XBox Version is the shooting feedback you got with the gamepad. Especially the rumble in the right trigger when you fire a weapon. That's something I really miss when playing with M+K.
me too. Gave up on random squads after getting TK'ed for my loot 2 games in a row.
I love the situtations vehicles can create in this game. Yesterday in a match I drove to the circle in a dune buggy, went in to loot some houses when the red zone came on our heads. Another buggy arrived with a guy who instatly ran into a house. I saw him, but I couldn't follow him due to the imminent bombs. When the red zone ends, turns out another guy was hidden as they steal my car and take the other one as well. Luckily not too far away there was a bike so I drove to the next circle almost flipping to death, having to zig-zag a bit as I literally went through a firefight but nobody shot me. Intense shit.
Yeah for sure. It was down to me and another guy left and I felt like I was about to have a heart attack lol
Needless to say, I didn't win that one..
Who's this loser using Xim4? He can piss off to PC then if he think he's skilled competing with people playing with controllers. Pathetic lol
In terms of near misses, I got to number 3 last night. Was an unusual final circle, right down in the corner of the south island. I got there with my usual tactic of taking weird lines, and directions.
I was down on a small beach, and thought I had checked there was still a way back up.
Everyone else was up top having fun murdering each other so I left them to it :).
Down to 4 and I'd seen there was one person down on the cliffs with me, but lost track of them in the rocks. Circle was closing and I had a choice to make, about what route to take.
Picked a random way up that looked OK and discovered person number 4 above me. 3 shotgun shots dispatched them (some nearby rocks were also definitely killed too, casualties of war and all that).
Then with the final blue closing on me I discovered why they were still there, the final jump up onto the normal level was too high, and it wasn't triggering the mantle system.....
So I die helplessly to the blue at number 3 spot with only 1 kill, very late into the match. I love this game! :)

try LFG? seems like a simple solution
i wouldn't bother playing with randoms in this game. id play solo before i did that.
Had a quick go this morning and the game seemed to be running with very little lag and as a result, was so much more smoother. I wonder if the servers are getting hit during peak times creating the lag?
Managed to get third and choked. There was a guy in the bushes in prone right in front of me, I'm pretty sure he couldn't see me but rather than throw a grenade or just shoot him I pressed the wrong button and stood up which gave away my position and ended me.

Nothing.
It would be nice to have some sort of road map for the game or at least some more communication from the devs.
My personal wants are:
Reduce lag/rubber banding
Reduce fuel for vehicles
Make vehicles weaker
Custom controls
Reduce texture load times
3 man squads.
As it stands, frame rate isn't a big issue for me, I seem to be getting 30 fps most of the time once I've got boots on ground with only rare drops. The biggest issue now, is the rubber banding/lag.

Everyone's chicken dinner consists of luck. That's the beauty of this game. Being in the right place at the right time can get you the win.
Keep trying, you'll soon be eating that chicken!
Oh it is, and it makes it even more exciting. You gotta be good but you gotta have the odds in your favor too. There are a lot of quality tips in this thread already that will make you get closer and closer however, including:
- holding RB allows you to look around yourself in 3rd person view without moving your character
- more populated areas likely have better loot, the key is finding fairly big buildings in places where no other people will go (eg. because it's too far from the plane)
- cars are near the main roads mostly
- the first circles don't kill fast so you can stick around on the outside if needed for a bit as long as you have some bandaids
- only engage with enemies when you're practically certain you'll get rid of them in a few shots or there's no other choices, caution gets you far normally
- grenades are amazing
- use a headset to hear footsteps and directions better
I'm managing to get in the top 10 fairly consistently nowadays, but to get that sweet chicken dinner you need good gear, good positioning, good skills, and even good luck with the circles and the enemies' behaviours.
Yo put me on team refund.

Just seen this rather beautiful glitch posted on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/xboxone/comments/7l48zw/my_pubg_characters_mouth_and_eyes_switched_places/
5/10 GOTY!
I would scream if that was chasing me lol
Thank you! Practice makes perfect :)
Death aside, that first guy should have been dead and was a reminder of my experience last night. It seems like only half my shots were registering.
Well, it was a 1v1 for the chicken dinner. I decided to hide back behind the rock and plan out my next play against the guy who was out in the open.... and then the screen started shaking and it declared I died from fall damage...........................................
Yeah. I'm starting to get pissed at the rubber banding and lag. There's awful glitches with the vehicles and they get stuck in terrain and explode.
Also, a great majority of my shots don't register.
I've noticed since the patch, that my game freezes(playing on my OG Xbox One, have an X, but can't use it this week)and either closes out or I have to quit out. Luckily I'm able to join back in the match, but it's definitely hurt our squad a few times.
Game is like crack though. It's one of the few games that has torn me away from Rainbow Six Siege and that take a lot.
Cannot wait to see where this game is in a few months. They need to fix the memory leak issues stat. Rubber banding hasn't been too much of an issue for me so far.

I started trying to glide further away from the plane before I nose dived to the ground, but i swear there is more people that way.. maybe I was just lucky when the game first came out, but there is always people landing by me. Back to just straight nose diving once i get out of the plane.
Lol. Thanks this gave me a good laugh
This sums up a fair share of my matches tbh.
Lol. Thanks this gave me a good laugh
These are my two most important strategies and I've gotten one win and starting to end up in the top 10 more often.
Also, waypoint the center of each new circle as they appear so you know what direction to go to if you need to hustle.
I very rarely land alone.... Very rarely.
Ive tried dropping far away on places that only have 1 or 2 buildings and there is still someone there.
My new tactic is to drop on one of the places that has loads of buildings and work fast.

Is anyone up to date on the other PC platform releases beside Steam?
Japan and Korea has different partners, too. But i'm not sure if they already launched.
Nevertheless i think 28m PC and 2m Xbox One Player is a decent guess.
Steamspy has the game at 25m, but is always behind
Should have been dead? He missed the shots. Single-shot is your friend.
*I'm not sure my controller would have survived the "Fall" death. The tension of this game just amplifys the impact of any hiccup. I can't wait to play this when it is smooth.
