What Games are you playing right now? [2]

Same number of players, I think. They are just broken up into teams. There may be 100 players, but you are actually playing maybe 25 teams.

If you watch PUBG on Twitch, you'll quickly see the good players never camp. They just see you first. And quickly kill you.

I can confirm that part. LOL.

Yes and no. When you die you are out of the game, but you don't have to wait for everyone else to die before starting another game. You have the option to spectate or go back to the lobby and start a new game, ay least playing solo. If you are playing Team mode you have to wait for the last person in your team to die, then your team can start a new game.

Yep, I can confirm that part. What I don't get is in what real world battle scenario is someone thrown (parachuted) into battle with absolutely no weapons? I tried solo last night. Parachuted to where I saw a little town. I land and notice I have no weapons. Run around trying to find some or one. Go into a little shed or whatever and someone is in there and kills me. Exit to the lobby to go for another match and then decide to play SOTTR instead. I could have made a PUBG video but it would have been 15 seconds LOL.

I assume one should avoid the towns until weapons are found but what do I know. Haven't fired a shot yet. I would need a weapon to do that.

Can't you just kick them in the groin ?

8 feet away and he had a submachine gun, CountMike. Obviously he knew where to get weapons.

The towns are where most weapons are. You have to get in quick. Here is some info on the game

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - Wikipedia

It's based off this movie

Thanks dude. Ya, I read that Wiki article. So stay in the towns to get the weapons. OK will give it another try. Don't see why everyone doesn't have a similar weapon loadout at start. It is a First Person Shooter for pete's sake.

No, it's PVP Battle Royale... try 3rd person

specialkone · 01 Nov 2018

Oh, yeah, 3rd person. Figure I'll remember that once I actually get a weapon in my hands.

Select it in the lobby before you start the game
