    Yes. Every player you face is cheating. Too bad for you.

    It's not cross platform. Obviously.

    Nice one, thanks for that.
    Are you always this helpful?

    Yes, actually. How would a game like ping work cross platform? It's a completely different skillset required. Gameplay is so much quicker on pc, you'd lose almost every fight.

    It's ignorant to think all pc players cheat.

    Isn't fortnite cross platform..? Rocket League too? It's not that outrageous of a question.

    Now you're embarrassing yourself.

    I see Fortnite has been addressed.
    (Even Rocketleague)

    And where did i say all PC players cheat? I asked is it possible i could be playing PC players running cheats, as its a bit trickier ( to run chests)on xbox, and there doesnt seem to be a disable cheat option as there is on PC.

    Theres only one of us ignorant here laddie.
    I asked a simple enough question, you havent distinguished yourself really, have you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    Imagine if there was some type of website you could check to see if it was cross platform?

    Fortnite isn't really comparable to pubg, other than it has guns. RL is completely different.
    They've nearly completely got rid of cheats on pc now. Reports are dealt with in a couple of days and you now get notified about reports.

    Pubg cross platform would be great, easy kills!

    Imagine having the audacity to come on to a thread about a game and ask for information about that game, unbelievable!

    Sorry about that, I've obviously discomoded some of the more "sensitive" members.

    I'm mortified.

    Fortnite is so popular they strong armed Sony into it. Now the flood gates have been opened, more games will try to do it but I doubt Sony is going to make it easy for them.

    What are you talking about? Theres always hacks out there and people using them, sadly, reporting only slows it down, and only works on people who use them so blatantly, sadly :(

    As someone with over 1800 hours, it's the best it's ever been. Every game like this has cheaters.
    Rarely see anything very obvious, and when I do I get a notification that they've been banned the next day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,468 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    isn't the whole cross platform thing in relation to Fortnite is that you can access your character across different consoles/mobile etc but you're not playing against people outside of your own platform you're currently playing the game on.

    No there's actual cross play too.

    It goes through in waves, they seem to ban loads in batches then the game is playable for a few days.
    After these few days are up, you can notice a complete difference and the game is ruined again. When you notice no one lying down in random places and camping places you know they've got their hacks again.
    Easiet way to see if they are hacking is when someone is beelining for you in a replay even though its not possible that they ever seen you and their crosshair is highlighting you constantly through multiple buildings and it flicks onto your body every few seconds.

    When the little mini D!cks are caught, they just come back and start with a new account.
    The fact they ban 2 million people and its still a problem is nuts, Just goes to show how many feel the need to compensate for their lacking manhood.

    Edit:
    I would love a mode for the game where you had to tie your real photo ID to it which would mean if your banned your gone for good from this mode.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    Well for the past 2 seasons I've won more games than any other season. I've met a few hackers, but much less than before.


    I'm not sure if I trust the replay system, seems fairly buggy to me.

    They've resolved the bugs with the replay system and its pretty reliable now.
    I'm hoping with Pubg being banned in China recently this will have a positive affect on the game. (I didn't wish for the game to be censor in China but would have been better if they were just locked off from other regions).

    Solo and duo are now available on the test server I believe.

    15.8GB Vikendi update now up for main game. 8 hour server maintenance should be complete by 9am.

    Looking very forward to this. But won't get near it until the weekend!

    I've seen some twitch clips and it looks like a map with a lot of potential.

    Its a fantastic map. Streamers such as Shroud have said this is the map that could save Pubg from declining numbers.
    There are some great battles both in the towns etc and out in the snow.
    Tracking someone's footprints to ambush them really is fun. AS long as you don't walk into their ambush :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    Some **** going down with the radar hack being banned, shockingly pro players are being banned.

    This dude explains it well.

    Problem with PUBG isnt the maps it has on offer, its pretty much everything else, the constant rubber banding and terrible hit reg, its never been fixed. And the movement is still clunky and slow.

    I stopped playing for a few months and came back to try out the new map, all that has changed since i last played was that they added more skins and **** to buy with real money. Still no major efforts to fix or improve the major issues with the game :(

    Anyone have a link to a legitimate APK? It's not available on play store where I live.

    I could play it on my laptop but a few of the lads do it on their phones and seem to enjoy it.

    Doesn't surprise me in the slightest, had a sneaking suspicion the radar one was going on even on live streams.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,318 ✭✭✭deceit


    I was coming on to say I was playing today and didn't come accross a hacker and was surprising people all the time.
    Guess the ban wave mentioned above explains it. (Thats really cool :D )
    Funny, I was just posting about this game being riddled with hackers the other day and after a ban wave it becomes good for a day or two as most of the hackers are afraid to play in case they get caught also until their mini D!ck hacks are updated.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,796 ✭✭✭CptMackey


    Only have it a few days. Managed 3 kills last night . Played way more aggressive than I normally do. Came 4th died to a fella with a sniper .

    Some rush. On ps4 it's probably one of the best battle royal games for that rush. Even if it's a bit clunky


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    Is it playable on PS4? The Xbox version looked utterly broken.

    It's playing fine for me. Graphics are passable. But I enjoy it. I'm not experiencing lag . So far so good. Never played it in Xbox so can't compare.

    I am playing on a pro tho which might help

    That's because you're pretty much playing the Xbox version, don't think they made any optimisations for it at all. Digital Foundry looked at it when it released on PS4, the differences are extremely minor, given the base PS4s lead over base Xbox.

    Im getting crazy lag at the moment like my internet is crap but it's not. Anyone know a fix for this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,725 ✭✭✭Metric Tensor


    Do you have the network stats including ping, etc. up on the top left of your screen? It allow you to see if the drops are intermittent or constant. Also the line of text at the very bottom will tell you if you are connected to an eu server or one further away.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,468 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    Sanhok seems laggy as hell..no latency issues whatsoever..
    Vikendi on the other hand is perfect as well is Eragel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,799 ✭✭✭MiskyBoyy


    Somebody posted this deadly link on reddit earlier that will auto clip anytime you kill or get killed by twitch streamers. Found a brilliant clip myself and the lads were in tonight :D

    Hasn't run better for me! Only problem I can think of is it launches in Windowed mode causing stutter, even tho people have it set to Fullscreen. Pressing ALT+Enter once or twice normally fixes it.

    looking at how smooth it runs on PC makes me sad when I think of how it plays on XB1. :(

    looking at how smooth it runs on PC makes me sad when I think of how it plays on XB1. :(

    This reminds me of friends/family who visited ours over the xmas and wet themselves watching PC games in action on a high refresh rate monitor and high spec PC.
    Three of them avid gamers are doing everything possible to get in on PC gaming with one already looking at a build and ready to order from scan.

    Funny thing is yeah these guys are big gamers but literally had no clue about what a PC is capable of, they firmly believed beforehand they were using the best gaming has to offer :)

    Is there any fix for the Speedfan issue.

    I can play Insurgency no problem and Speedfan will do it`s thing, but not with PUBG, it always messes up the fan readings and a re-boot is the only fix to sort Speedfan out...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,286 ✭✭✭✭MadYaker


    I bought the game shortly before Xmas and it’s been completely unplayable since day one no matter how many of the recommended fixes I try. I’ve reinstalled the game twice. How are steam allowing them to sell a product like this? I sent a ticket to get a full refund. Fûcking joke.

    How is it unplayable?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,286 ✭✭✭✭MadYaker


    Massive screen tear and lag, seemingly caused by constant packet loss and my ping spiking from about 40 up to like 500 every few seconds. It’s not my internet

    Do you want to tell us anything about your system or give us any hint as to why you found it unplayable ? cause I know loads of people playing it without any issues .

    1800 hours later and I've never experienced anything like you say that wasn't my fault.
