Wouldn’t change a single word of that spoken like a true veteran of this game 😂 I find myself doing only the easiest of challenges that don’t take half a day (like killing 20 outlanders for a common crate) more worthwhile doing ones like craft 15 assault rifles for some food and other materials. Food being more useful than a common crate at 35exp and junk items and I have plenty of parts so can easily manufacture stuff. I share the same experiences with duos all being a barred rush, don’t get me wrong if I spawn close I’ll go for it but 90% of my spawns are the opposite end of the map. Sometimes I’ll crack barred safe and just hang back, sometimes watching people hard scoping the safe for like 10 minutes not realising nobody’s in there 😂 if I do stick with the safe I generally dismantle it all unless I believe I can get away with it. Drops are never boosted so unless I know most others are dead or can confirm everyone is dead I don’t bother over a common crate. I loot in an erratic pattern so my movements can’t be predicted and sometimes if I’m lucky enough to kill someone who did loot stuff I’ll bank it and leave. I miss playing on maps I want to play on because sometimes in a dig cache in mood and sometimes a loot and dip mood on specific maps where I know what materials or on that map and where to go for them. Overall I’m slogging on level 26 on the pass already resigning to not finishing. At best I may unlock all the gun plans at level 30 something think the mp5 is on then I’m done. They need more than a battlepass tbh figures shoulfbsurely so nobody is buying the battlepass maybe 1 in 4 I see do mine was only with free crowns I’d saved up to actual cash spent. If bohemia do another battlepass I would urge players not to buy it, not to spend crowns on levels and at best only take the “free” rewards. If the next battlepass (if there is one) flops then I would hope they get the message.

Yeah I noticed crouching = easier shots for the enemy headshots anyway makes little sense but I must say though I’m worse than most people most days I don’t play a match at all 😂 if I feel like it maybe a handful 3-4 then I’m bored. I simply must avoid all contact, can’t recall how many times someone’s mulled over to my spawn with the help of portable signals to hunt me boring as hell when that happens.

Wonder if vigor will ever turn out the same way with bots in players place 😂 might make for more relaxed matches lol

Teaming is generally frowned upon by the community but there’s no official rule saying you can’t do that though it’s difficult to actually get into such a team with recent updates. I’m afraid to say the vigor community is somewhat struggling in its late game stages. A new player absolutely will enjoy this up to a certain plot don’t get me wrong but it may be somewhat limited. I don’t team games will be a thing but who knows at this point. If I may ask what happened regarding bots on PubG? I’m curious how that’s been implemented if you could shed more light on that.

Perhaps the solution would be a “one stack mode” where you could pick any weapon but be limited to a single stack of bullets and a disinfectant and you have to scavenge from the map to get more gear. Or perhaps we could do a limited inventory encounter with less than half the space? Keep bouncing ideas around anyway 🙂

That’s just tragic sadly you won’t likely get any crowns back, just gonna have to learn to not touch the “buy level” button in future xD

Yeah sadly I’m in the same boat, if I can get out with the crate that’s great but if enemies are in my way the crate goes away (dismantle) if you head to barred you’ll soon be scarred (for life xD) If your full of loot you’ll likely get the boot (disconnect) my rhyme of the day 😂😂

The middle exit really is just a luxury time saver only useable when your site you can make it, I tend to switch up exits halfway once or twice so enemies don’t know where to run. On that note though might be nice if you could maybe use a pistol while climbing a ladder? Might be a nice Mechanic but I’m sure people would also find ways to abuse even that if it ever became a thing

I for one don’t care much for the story yes it would be nice if implemented right but I’ve seen another game much like this but for obvious reasons can’t name it. Basically a shooter battle royale but didn’t have a story, since they eventually did update the game I have a “story mode” I actually hated the game more. I suspect if BI did a story mode for this game it too would also be dissatisfactory. Would rather focus be aimed on shelter customisation and development @fOrsythiaa no secret this is a community wish list item pretty high up there wouldn’t mind spending a stand-alone purchase price within a reasonable range for a quality update like this say £20? If it’s good of course and once you buy it you just have it to work on, new upgrades, shelter area to explore etc stuff like that.

Hey a Thompson can get a bs headshot from crossmap if your not careful 😛

Yeah same might not even finish this battlepass but I’ll get as far as i can with it collecting free crowns and if good looking cosmetics come out I’ll buy them instead of boosts in game.

Yeah that’s pretty normal these days, I admit I don’t spend crowns even though I’ve got hundreds of them, don’t need loot and don’t wanna waste em with cod lobby’s.

Gotta remember it takes a few seconds when the timer hits zero before it adds to the stash so even then it’s not 3-4 seconds frustratingly 😂😂

Simple solution would be a favourites tab in the weapon select screen especially if the games able to tell you your history of weapon choose and automatically display your top used guns. failing that I’d be happy enough enduring the scroll just once to select the ones I want so future visits to the weapon select are easier. 👍

To be honest we’re at that point in the game now where people run around dismantling any loot they find even in some rare cases the drop too. I know first hand either chasing someone or having a friend who gets chased they would rather dismantle a common crate to deny loot (and remove marker on the map) to get the advantage on the persuer. I myself will admit I’ve fallen into toxic habits like this due to sweaty players hunting me for a cheap kill and while my shelter isn’t maxed I don’t bother looting as I know all it takes is encountering another player to result in almost certain death. In ways of old you could trade rounds and both sides could get hurt and either have a longer gun battle or cut their losses and break line of sight going separate ways. Now it’s bascially a case of see another Outlander fight to the death or cross map them easily with a few rounds without a fight. That’s why I loot and dismantle to deny cheap prizes to such people I’ll leave with drops if I can but If im under heavy fire I just dismantle it if it’s an ass crate, get exp for just picking it up anyway. Again in ways of old I’d leave one item in the safe, usually the heals so at least one other player could get exp. now I’m aware that if more than one weapon is present in the safe people will dismantle something just to take it to deny the safe exp. games gone south basically

I agree they say “you’ll find loot in logical locations like nails in garages” but then have illogical shelter stations that don’t what you think they should do or in fact do in reality. Box’s of plants should also produce food whereas like you say chemical stations should produce Chems as well as it’s current perk.

I hope they pay you well it’s not an easy job especially right now. I think we need something other than a season pass, it’s the reason a lot of people have quit from other games due to season pass grinds need something to replace it

These are features that would improve the game hence not cost effective - BI

I “bought” my pass with crowns I didn’t pay for so I guess they get their money somehow but not from me 😂 but yeah seeing the same people quite often as well but well said folks I am curious to see this stream though lol

You gotta keep popping pills as and when they run out

I love the ones who greedily grab both drops in randoms and then get shirty when I kill their greedy asses

I for one only boost when I have a challenge to boost say 3 times for a purple crate or I’ll drop insurance for the odd rare 300%+ game but otherwise I don’t do it and I’m sitting on a few hundred free earned crowns from before the challenges were nerfed and I stopped playing. I’m not even 100% maxed on shelter upgrades but because I’ve got literally hundreds of every item I don’t need materials or gear so I shamefully must admit I run around purely for exp gathering items and then either leaving if it’s a good haul or boost lobby or dismantle as I go. On the dismantling as I go runs I bring a crappy common gun or an OP Akm and a single heal and scrap everything I find so nobody gets anything if their being douchy and camping. Due to one shot situations being increasingly common I am honestly scared to spend crowns without first having someone else boost as well and then put insurance on. I’ve had games where d***s with an M1911 pistol have two shot me, or a douche with a grease gun snuck up on me or shotgun chargers sprinting around a corner they were hiding behind soon as they spot me coming. Don’t mind dying an I get headshots are a legit thing but the overall time to kill is what stops me boosting without the above conditions.

I also would like to point out I mentioned the idea of a “cargo ship” long time ago that could land at the dock with seasonal offers on a daily or weekly basis. The ideas been floated around by a few people for a while it definitely a good idea. I do support arachnids pessimism on the matter of raiding shelters, lord only know the game is toxic enough with the pvp heavy side of things without having my daily rounds of the shelter interrupted all the time. I’m much the same as other who haven’t fully upgraded the shelter but simply don’t bother finishing it due to a lack of incentive to do so. Post update at the very least you may occasional get a “build 1 shelter improvement” for a gold crate challenge to motivate me but this isn’t the case now. I too now lot for exp only hell I rarely keep anything even if I survive except food, I actually loot and delete as I go just to deny one shot killers and sweats any prize for killing me.

Not something I’ve ever done either but then again I’m oretty much maxed out on the shelter with 1.6mill materials and all the items and weapons I could ever want so I have no need for it 😂

Yep I’ve heard of this the process is finicky but basically you ought to bring a knife for this, the decked out player gets stabbed several times until nearly dead who then applies pain killers which gives temporary health, the ungeared player then takes his stuff after he closes the game. Some weird glitch where the game gets confused over the players health so thinks it’s a random disconnect and gives the items back to the player. Hope I’ve gotten that correct it’s been awhile since I’ve seen it first hand but basically that’s the key, pain killers and quitting the game after taking damage confusing the game into thinking it’s a glitch so you get your stuff back
