Do you personally find it has good atmosphere?

I started this thread because I was playing UT2004 against bots and felt sad. All that gunplay variety, fantastic movement, outstanding level design and nobody would care about it today. I never thought video games going mainstream would mean encountering a dark age of design.

At the 30-36 minute mark it is almost 100% luck based.

Vidya is dead and the atmosphere meme killed it.

>>385070668

Because it is entirely RNG based where the final circle will end up and sometimes it forces you to move in an extremely disadvantageous way that will 100% get you killed.

>>385070991
l2 think ahead desu

>>385070440
>>385070751
That's what I'm saying, and why it appeals to so many people. It's gambling disguised as a skill based game. You don't need to put in the effort, but feel like you did when it goes your way.

Hunger games came out and everyone was like fuuuuuck that would be so dope to play in a video game!!!


There was a mine craft mod like this and now that it's got that open world feel norms are familiar with plus the fps feel they are accustomed too mixed in with a survival battle royale? Wow sign me the fuck up!!!! Only norms haven't played enough games to notice poor net code or lack of level design or hell they don't even know what any of these things are.

>>385068229
Yes? Everyone knew this back when MOBAs got popular. 30 minutes of mindless farming minigame with an occasional fight here and there. Hell, the first 10 minutes is pretty much dedicated farming.

>>385068229
mad cuz bad :^).

because pc has no other multiplayer games besides shooters, rts are dead for example

then even shooters are dead: siege got destroyed by ubisoft, battlefield got destroyed by EA

you end up with a fucking huge userbase that latches on to any remotely decent game because there is literally nothing else

>>385071981
By that argument, every shooter in existence is gambling disguised as a skill based game. You can always get flanked unexpectedly and die.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with you. There is a very significant luck component to every shooter (There's even more luck involved in real life shooting).

Yet, despite the luck factors, good players always seem to come out ahead more often than not. It's a lot like poker in that regard. The top players consistently come out ahead, even though sometimes a shitty turn fucks them on occasion.

This shooter is no different than other shooters that came before it. The only reason it doesn't seem like it is that you only get one life. In traditional shooters, you respawn constantly, so you get to roll the dice more quickly, as a result you can clearly get a metric of skill delivered to you within 5 minutes of play, whereas you only get one run every 30 minutes or so in a game like PUBG. As a result, it takes many hours of play before a player's skill can be assessed.

>>385072608
>You can always get flanked unexpectedly and die.

There is a difference between getting flanked and literal RNG elements deciding wins such as the circle, loot, etc. That you consider getting flanked luck based at all is a bit telling.

>>385072189
>disregarding thousands of games because they've been labeled as indie

There's such a thing as believing in the meme too hard.

>>385068229
Lmao /v/ is such a irrelevant shithole. You trash literally every game but your favorite """"game"""" is weaboowatch literally the most mainstream millennial unskilled trash of the game.. All of you faggots are drooling over the fanfic and some shitty comics. Fuck off

>>385072608
>You can always get flanked unexpectedly
A good game will find ways to alert you subtlety in a way that good players will pick up on and act on them.

For example, footsteps.

I kind of agree though, I dislike FPS multiplayer because I suck at them unless I play for ages, enough to learn the layout of each map.

>>385072945
The poster before that one literally complained that getting sniped was a luck factor.

There are a million intangible things that contribute to victory or defeat in any shooter. Good players take actions to mitigate as many of those things as possible.

Yes, it is absolutely possible that getting flanked can be a luck situation, because there are situations where a calculated risk is taken in order to capture an objective. In those situations, you might use the available information you have and determine that there's a low chance of a player being there in an ambush position, and sometimes that ends up being the wrong choice.

Even a top rank player in a game can killed by a random grenade flying through a window. Shit happens. You sound like one of those faggots who flips out when bad luck gets you killed and whines "If X thing hadn't happened I would have beaten you because you're trash"

>>385073516

>At the first 10 minutes
You scan for other people who land near you and after scavenging a weapon you go hunt them down without mercy. Then you loot as much as possible depending on the zone
>after looting the initial areas
You try to get a vehicle and hunt down supply drops and other players. Alternatively depending on the zone you set up an ambush on a popular route to kill some more.
>final 10 minutes
The circle gets small and enemies are all around you. Tension builds as you try to stealth or win firefights

Where the fuck do you find the time to do nothing? There's constantly people to fight, loot to find, or somewhere to move.

>>385080223
cowadoodie was like that as well, if you turned in the wrong direction you were dead because you moved to slow to be able to check another corner before a person there shot you. and if you get lucky few times in a row, have a killstreak. but at least cowadoodie wasn't an early access piece of shit.

>>385077307
Its a meme social game filled with normalfag libtards, roasties and niggers and the dev is is a potato nigger faggot.

>>385077307

Their years of playing shooters from the 90s isn't rewarded and actually often discouraged. If you cant hold down "w" and mindlessly tap space bar while getting kills by spamming projectiles in the general direction of enemies, the arenafags get really mad. They hate having to play with some strategy other than "go fast and jump." They suck under pressure and they can't just run away from every threat into the safety of an armor pack or power up.

You're choosing to play this way. If you don't want downtime, don't take it. There's always something you could do. Take position, loot new areas, formulate strategy.

>"looting"

Is there any other kind?

>short bursts of action that is almost completely luck based

Short burst isn't inaccurate and it's only luck based if you don't plan ahead a few minutes

Netcode I'll hand to you, gunplay could be better by eliminating third person but it's decent

The rest is just saltposting.

>>385081624
*almost put him through a glass window. Being threatened with an action != enduring said action

Getting PTSD over being put through a fucking window is an insult to the thousands of veterans suffering from PTSD who were held in brutal POW camps and underwent literal torture.

>>385068390

>>385081798
Soldiers are trained to deal with that shit though. PlayerUnknown is just a regular guy like you or me. We're not as tough as soldiers so it takes much less for us to traumatized. His PTSD is just as real if not, more real.

>>385081536
I'd rather play with your friend than you, Anon.

soldiers are definitely not trained to endure that shit. Nobody trains you to get shot, or shot at, or to kill innocent people, or to take another person's life. You're just kinda expected to deal with it.

No, it really isnt you little bitch.

I just bought it on a whim a few days ago, and it's been pretty decent fun. Hop in a game with three friends, jump off the plane to a sort of far off place, then make a go of it in some shitty Russian car with Uzis and pump shotguns. We were second place as a squad our first game in the middle of some farm, and got bodied halfway through our second game. There's lots of little tense moments between players where you don't want to shoot at them to let them know you're there, but you also see that you've got a clear shot at them. The circle constantly growing smaller is also a really great mechanic and makes sure that basically every time you play it's a little bit different.

I didn't buy Day Z, or H1Z1, or Rust or The Forest or 7 Days to Die, but my friends were playing this one, so I bought it, and it's decent fun. Runs like shit, but it's decent fun.

The concept isn't bad at all, but why do all of these Survival meme games have to have horrible programming and terrible shooting?

The part of this game thaf annoys me the most is that nobe if the players are interesting. If you try to interact with someone rhey just shoot or
jump punch you without a word, even when you make yourself the least hostile possible.
I know I'm complaining about people playing the game the way it's meant to be and how they want, but it still bores me.

There's no incentive for there to be anything more complex than players just killing each other on sight. I absolutely do want to see more games that drop a lot of players into a match and give them reason to work together though.

>>385082641
It would be a bit more fun if more people got on voice. So many times I've tried to just goof off with a random person only for them to just shoot me. If anything they just say something like "get good" or "fuck off".

No you wouldn't, because he frequently runs off on his own and then gets passive aggressive when he dies. He doesn't communicate to the point where the zone is closing in and rather than running towards the safe zone, he ran TOWARDS the blue line looking for a vehicle when we could of made it on foot.

>>385082557
I don't know if I should feel sorry for you millenials. In my day "operator" games were MGS 2, FEAR, SWAT 4, CS (non bloatware version), Rainbow Six Vegas and you got... this.

Just because something worse could have happened doesn't mean that wasn't bad. Those POWs could've had to endure cannibalism, seeing their children raped and murdered, having to kill their own family, being eaten piece by piece by dogs, etc.

These things have happened to many people even in very recent history but I don't hear anyone saying that being starved most to death and having bamboo shoots shoved under your nails isn't awful. Some guy got thrown through a plate glass window (could kill you by the way not a super easy thing to do) by someone he lived with so okay he's got PTSD. It was traumatic.

There isn't even any proof that it happened. Also, if your roommate is so pissed off with you that he decides to throw you through a fucking window, then you must have done some pretty low-down shit to have that brought upon yourself.

I just finished second because I parked my car between a door and a house and hid there, and blasted 3 people who walked in front of the house. It felt godly and the short bursts of action are intense because they are short bursts.

I could probably go on and on about it but these games attract a different fanbase who isn't interested in gameplay in the same way players used to.

>>385068229
I call this growing new genre battle royale. This game is not the only one. I've seen some also in beta or in development.

This kind of games is interesting to me. Closed maps with a lot of actions like csgo becomes monotonous as you logged more hours into them. Planetside2 had the open huge maps but also the monotony. Dayz is pure randomness. These kinds of games are just right on everything.

You can feel the sense of achievement if you got good equips unlike in traditional shooters, Accomplishments can be random like go to this place, find a vehicle and not just one that is mostly kill the enemy and the match length is just right.

This is like scavenger hunt in real life but with guns.

its been in the top sellers for months

I don't understand the appeal too anon. It doesn't strike me as being that stategic, get a bit of luck with weps and some easy surprise kill on peeps then gun it to the next stop

I guess it's probably high tension, having only 1 life you are always catious about what's around the next corner, but it doesn't seem like the game has much in terms of variety.

I haven't played it, just watched my brother play, he gave up on it after a few days saying it was just boring now and I'm not surprised.

It didn't seem like a lot of work went into making things mechanically balanced with the shooting etc too.

I guess it's just the newest game created with streamers in mind as it can create so many "omg hahah did you see that" moments. There will be a new game like it in a few months which most streamers and then audience will move to.

You got to remember the majority of the audience of those streamers are literally under 14, some as young as 9-10. They just like to watch someone 'cool' playing games they can't either due to parents not letting them or not being good enough because they are kids.

My friends nephew watches a lot of twitch, he's probably beyongd saving literally all he does is watch the popular streams and memes in chat, i don't know if he donates to people or not.

so in other words its a flavor of the month bandwagon multiplayer with the same capabilities as 15 year old titles. thanks for clearing that up. if you havent noticed people play multiplayer shooters based on the playerbase not if they are better or worse than other titles.

the allusion of PUBG is that theyve spaced out combat and made it so sporadic and inconsistent that you can take many many hours before you realize the core gunplay AKA the core GAMEPLAY of that game is complete trash

if you had all guns and respawned instantly, and were confined to small area, you'd already dismiss the game and forgotten it already

the entire gimmick of PUBG is the allusion that the combat is worth the lulls, the reality is, the playerbase are all plebs, who need luls between fits of action, because otherwise, they'd burn out immediately, can't legitimately compete, and would understand immediately the game is trash/ they are trash at the game

its pretty good at disguising how trash it really is, and games journalists pros group fell for the bait, and started mimicking twitch streamers by doing streams of the game, but the problem is they fucking suck at the games, they just want to pretend to be relevant in the game's discussion, so they can all reaffirm their preconceived notion of the game being GOTY

they dont want to give zelda GOTY, because that would mean they are pandering to "Gamers" AKA the people they fucking hate, the contrarian choice is PUBG. its already been decided.

It's a unique game, that's why. It is popular for the same reason minecraft became popular. Regardless of how shitty the graphics, mechanics, netcode, etc, etc are, there is some magic formula deep inside that resonates with a bunch of people.

In minecraft the magic formula was building something from nothing with teammates. Hundreds of clones ensued, notably Rust and ARK.

In PUBG the magic formula is fear of death. The commitment of a long queue time, long loot time, and overall long buildup before combat artificially induces a kick of adrenaline, that you do not get in games with respawn timers < 5 minutes. Whether or not this is a good gameplay mechanic or just a clever trick (similar to how coca cola employs the "clever trick" of throwing 10g of sugar in order to trick you into believing it tastes good) is another discussion, but this is the sole reason the game is popular.
Hundreds of clones will ensue, with at least one made by Ubisoft, you have my word.

sqaud games are fun provided everyone isnt complete trash, ive won more squad games than anything else, but most of the time some shitter will just get killed in the first 5 minutes and youll be at a disadvantage the whole game, or simply having 4 people will force a more active playstyle mentality where you are moving a lot instead of playing it safe as you would in solo/duos, leading to just getting sniped out in the open somewhere

The longer the game is out it, the more that more players kinda catch on to what works too, so you have a lot of people trying to 'slow creep' the circles and some games you have more people doing long distance parachute drops away from the plane and less people dropping straight down on crowded complexes. It's weird and kinda gives the game a dynamic self aware meta but it's still samey after enough games

>>385085946

The best course of action is to just go to the military base every time. Caring about w/l in a game where the highest w to l ratio is like 14% is fucking dumb. You either die right away and restart, or get the best shit immediately and have a huge edge on everyone else.

>>385086389
I hear a lot about how people like us are vocal, but I'm sure that's mostly a large made up assumption by the big wigs and the industry in general. Because if they were actually listening to those folks who were barking loud, they would be making games for us. No game has been made for a long time that appeals to a guy like me that were playing games where dying was actually an act of learning. The recent Crash reaction is such a great example of the state of the industry's normal gamers. A lot of modern games lack length and content, and when they try to fake either like old rpgs did, they end up looking even worse. There won't be games like that for a long time because these companies arent taking risks. They arent throwing away their charts or tables and that's because they have this reliable force of nature that isn't very smart or informed, and will buy anything cause they have low willpower.

So I know why they stopped going after nerds or the above average guy, cause we were and are the biggest critics of video games. We know when we're being taken as fools, which is why all the trends have steered away from us and toward the casual gamers.

It does 100 players badly and the map dilutes the whole playerbase so much that most of the game is fucking downtime, and running through houses desperately searching for loot doesn't account for actual playtime. Oh yeah and let's not pretend like the loot isn't purely RNG, either, when somebody picks up Lv. 3 armor and an SKS with a 4x in the first five minutes while another motherfucker got stuck with a pistol and three Uzis who the fuck is lucky. And that shit does fucking happen. There is no valid argument for this game other than "I suck streamer cock" or "I love shitty gimmicks"

No way fuckers. PUBG is an example of a video game that has almost everything I don't want in a video game. This realistic set up, combined with the looting system and and the absolute boring gameplay is something that will never be interesting, ever.

I don't know who these people are who keep buying these big open world shooters/loot focused video games with awkward semi-realistic gunplay are, but their taste is fucking garbage. I don't know if it's realismfags or something else entirely, but I wish they'd fuck off.

>>385087996
Well, maybe you shouldnt pick a long range fight with an UZI agaisnt an SKS? But when inside a building or if you sneak up on him, you've got a massive advantage regardless of the SKS players armor.

The lowest common denominator for fps games fanboy siege

I play siege but I play it like CoD, anyone who says the game isn't similar to CoD has to be kidding themselves. 3 speed is fucking broken right now because of the garbage hitbox, and if you're not peeking first (or spawn peeking), the region switchers will destroy you.

Not to mention siege fanbase is one of the worst, calling league/csgo/ow fans terrible when you can expect spawn killers with no repercussion because they game the autokick feature (and of course, the region switchers, bug abusers, afkers in ranked). Siege takes next to no skill to play, once you learn the basics, it becomes call of duty with destructible environment, if the game doesn't glitch and rubberband you or choose not to destroy the environment that is.

If it wasn't for the peekers advantage, the hitboxes, and the awkward perspectives the game would be one of the best shooters out there.

I wanted to get balls deep into the ranked mode, but from what I've heard from other anons is once you get to a high enough rank the game boils down to people ping exploiting and using 3 speed operators to get a big advantage over you.

Like, how the fuck did Ubi think it was acceptable to have players get up to a full second of visual advantage over another player in a game were all headshots are 1 shot kills? When you're playing against other good players and you're struggling to beat them that 1 second advantage can completely make shit unwinnable.

Avoiding people in that game is a fantastic way to be extremely under-powered in the last 10 minutes, and basically guarantees your instant-death from others who have the aggregate loot of everyone they kill, and the people who those people killed.

It's an objectively shitty game but it's fun to play, especially in squads, and it's also fun to watch, but only when the player is exceptionally gud.

Managing your position in or around the circles seems to already be too much for the average player causing them to believe the source of their loss are the circles. Not to mention loot is random so even if you go to a high chance area, it may take you more than 10 minutes to have an optimal loadout by looting every possible building increasing the necessity of managing your position around the white circle unless you're already in it. Let's take into consideration that even if you have an optimal load-out, you have one life to achieve WWCD so you need to balance stealth and aggressive tactics in order to not be killed by the playzone or enemy players. I mean this is a large scale game so it is going to take as long as it needs to.

Off topic, but imagine if there was a similar mode for Quake or Unreal Tournament, the map would need to be drastically smaller, maybe on the scale of an Onslaught or Warfare map from Unreal Tournament.

>>385085925
>Thats a large untapped market
Actually it isn't. That is why it doesn't worth risking a "hardcore" game. If you appeal to casuals - even if your game gets shit on everywhere - you will cash in more profit than you may get from a successfull hardcore game.

No wonder almost every game, even the highly praised ones have a dogshit easy difficulty everyone can beat.

Because it's popular and subsequently a twitch hit, so the neckbeard hivemind hates it regardless of its merits.

>>385077175
You boiled something down to the point that it doesnt sound fun anymore. You can do that with any game no matter how good or bad

>>385085925
Because there's actually very few 'hardcore' players left. Even of thse that used to play loadse quake back then- half of them are over 30 and have other obligations than gitting gud at a harcore fps
There's been a flood of new arena shooters in the last few years and they all have pathetic playercounts

Except that the map doesn't get smaller and you can just instantly respawn, so it's basically not like battle royal at all.

________________(You)______________

The game is indicative of the cancerous lump on the gaming scene - which is the state of multiplayer.

Every game tries to be competitive and all of them forget to be good at the same time.

Ive literally got friends offering to pay half of the cost of this game so I will play it with them. I imagine thats because its really shitty to play by yourself. Because its a shitty game.

Unless you use it in the most literal case, in which video games have been trying to be competitive since forever, it's not really aiming to be competitive in the modern esports sense

listen kid, all memes aside. you have shit taste. your game is objectively shit. i understand you may have shit taste and enjoy it, but the truth is we all look down on you. i know you feel like you have to defend it but you really dont. if you enjoy it, keep playing, because nobody else wants to play with you anyways, because you have shit taste, and you suck dick at video games.

guy just stop, you lost. your roast is weak and youre pathetic.

Look, here's the thing about the game: from a technical standpoint, it's pretty much fucking garbage. Bugs out the ass, it feels like it was optimized by an actual neanderthal, and they're advertising clambering as a major new mechanic. Plus, there's only one fucking map. It doesn't matter that they're working on more, there's still only one goddamn map.
Plus, they're so fucking bad at rendering clothes that the clothing pick ups on the ground are all the same basic white shirt.

That being said, playing it has created some of my fondest and most tense vidya memories. This might partially be because I have two other friends that play it with me regularly. But even in solo queue, I kept having the same amount of fun. I realize that the circle is fucking bullshit and is nowhere close to being balanced, and that there's certain parts of the game that are essentially ruled by blind luck, but goddamn it's fun.
I won a solo game earlier with 9 kills, and it was because I posted up on a watchtower with a SCAR and a 4X and plinked everyone who happened to walk near me. I completely lucked out on the play zone too, even though I was like the only guy to go to the Military Base that round.

>it's the "/v/ pretends to like a shit game just to rile up the rest of /v/" thread

>>385095784
Exactly this

The game is 100% complete garbage. Everything from servers, to code, to minor details, 100% trash. The studio has no fucking clue what to, evident by random ass patches, patches taking forever and being unfathomably large and unoptimized, and not fixing what needs to be fixed

But hey, it is fun with your friends, that is until you get tired of how awful it is. The mean is probably around 200 hours, most I've talked to get burned out by then
