At least you went into the Circle instead of the opposite way

Had several game crashes last night. One of them when there was only 8 people left and when i got back in I had died to the storm.

The problem with the rendering now is that its not just an initial render.

You could wait for the building to spawn... loot the roof, enter it and enter a small room where cardboard boxes render and trap you inside(that specifically happened to me)

Or try to cross a bridge a few mins into the game but fall through it as its not rendered when it must have for anyone who landed there.

The game is far worse now... 6 months in and you still crash every second game.

It’s all the crap HDD in the original Xbox. I play with two other guys regularly. Two originals Xbox and one Xbox S. Myself and the other original Xbox guy have always been plagued by poor performance compared to the guy with the S. Until I got an SSD.

Now I appear to be on a par with the S whilst the guy with the original Xbox without an SSD has all the issues you’re describing above.

I dont understand why rendering is so awful on the new map, i hate seeing it pop up for fear of landing and having to stand outside a building or empty site, waiting for it to render.

The last update is beyond a joke.

The rendering is terrible on landing, particularly in Miramar. It's worse than it ever was on the test server.

Some other things that haven't been mentioned:

- I will get a crash on Miramar in most matches. Sometimes I will get more than one crash in the same game.
- A few times, when returning from a crash, my TPP camera view will be at waist level, and when I lie down it goes below the level of the ground. It goes without saying that I don't last for long when this happens.
- I was playing with a guy on the weekend, and he teleported about half a kilometre across the map. He was looting a building, then the building disappeared. It took a while to realise he had just been transported out into an open field.

Yeah the rubber banding is such an annoyance. I had it before the update for a few seconds every time I land but yesterday I literally had it for 90 secs after I landed.

Agreed, it was bearable before but now its pretty much unplayable. At least on the Xbox one.

Play in a 4 player squad with friends most nights and we all have agreed performance is definitely worse than ever with the latest update. To name a few issues:

Trouble in the lobby trying to ready as a squad (4 players). Annoying having to quit and restart the game numerous times so everybody can ready. Gets very tiring at the end of every match having to perform this.
Buildings not rendering for up to 30 seconds after landing, sometimes becoming stuck in objects if they render and you are in the wrong place (this always existed to an extent but this is much worse than before)
Heavy rubber-banding for up to 30-40 seconds when landing on ground

I feel like players let their guard down more if they think someone has their back and then theyre easy pickings.

Probably is the way to go. I really struggle on duos, and have no idea why. I have plenty of solo and squad chicken dinners, but things always go tits up on duos for me.

I play duo's a lot with one of my friends, I find if one person dies the other doesn't care and usually goes kamikaze then to just start and=other game, unless we're pretty close to the last few circles.

Could be why if you're playing with someone else and not bothering with them you won't take chances in reviving them or won't care about getting killed early and starting a new game with them.

Anyone find it easier to just play duos if you're solo queuing? It seems like its quite easy to get top 10 if you just ignore your team mate and play it as a solo.

Yeah frame rates are marginally down except in two scenarios where they’re on the floor - the initial drop and driving a boat. Must have been down to 10fps in the boat.

The patch is out, with the map included, but it's to go live later.

My understanding was that the new map goes live then. I dunno.

Ever since I put the game on an external SSD, I never had to wait for anything to render. Now I'm back to being able to run through walls on occasion.

Noooooo ðŸ˜

I’m the same. Was wonky as hell until I put it on an SSD and since it’s been quite stable. Buildings render immediately etc.

They have made the rendering of buildings even worse. Not even sure how that is possible.

I play on the original xbox one and still only find a problem when I land in a congested area, which has always been the case.

Miramar / May update is live now - 9GB

The May update is a major update focused on improvements to stability and optimization, as well as the addition of Miramar.

Miramar will be available on live servers from May 24 00:00 PDT / May 24 09:00 CEST
The PUBG Xbox team has been constantly monitoring and reviewing your feedback from both the live servers and PTS. We are constantly focusing on improving service stability and game optimization.

Some examples of problems which we are improving this patch are: Situations where the characters get stuck in the yet-to-be-loaded interior pop-ins. Situations where objects (especially buildings) were rendering too slow for users to enter.

The May update adds a highly predictive-based loading system, which improves the system's overall performance in order to facilitate more advanced and optimized map loading. It will change the priority of the loading process, which will improve loading of the area where the player decides to land.

This, as well as other improvements have been made to make loading of the map, objects and players a smoother experience overall. This system will become more effective as data is accumulated and as time goes on, you will experience more optimized and stabilized gameplay.

In addition, we’ve collected about 1,500 bug reports (including redundancies) from the past 4 PTS tests. Also, issues that may cause problems in the Live Server have been fixed in the May Update build. Community feedback on the May update will also be monitored and reviewed to help improve future patches.

We thank all the testers who participated actively in PTS.

Optimization / Stabilization

Both Miramar and Erangel have significantly improved overall game performance on the Xbox One/S/X and stability has also been improved. Optimization and stabilization is still the dev team’s top priority. Our goal is to deliver constant improvements.

The free-fall and parachuting process has been optimized, leading to performance improvements during the initial stages of each game. The world loading process has been optimized, allowing buildings and their interiors to load simultaneously and reducing the overall rendering time. The handling of resources for unseen nearby characters’ movements has been optimized to improve performance of the game. Handling resources of equipping and unequipping items of unseen nearby characters have been optimized to improve performance during the early game and to reduce the likelihood of crashes Character inventory loading has been optimized, improving response time when opening inventory and reducing crashing. Unoccupied vehicles/boats have been optimized to increase the overall performance of the game.

The test servers are back up this evening from 4 with no end date confirmed yet so they might keep it open until they switch it to the full game with the other patches and improvements on the 24th

I've actually found it much better over the last 2 weeks!

finglashoop

Game is actually getting worse.

Couldnt run 50 yards without character stopping

It was as laggy as when it first came out.

FInding the new map so difficult towards the end when there is just open space for days and the circle isnt nice to you.
