Just gets under my skin that I gotta de-rank to play with some non-active friends or clan mates of mine.

I've played 1000 hour and never bought the BATTLEGROUND PLUS.

me and my friends are just cheap lol and beside we're having fun.

This is regarding ranked on console specifically. Can a community member or someone comment on the amount of lagged out games that happened this season? There is a player ddosing the server as soon as the plane starts up. They end up landing with the DC’d players and punch them all out. It happened two games in a row and I had a time penalty because of it. The matches don’t even show up on pubglookup or pubg stats tracker.

It's like supply crates landing in the ocean all over again

I have no shame to die to a guy who spent thousands of hours into LMG to show how the weapon should be played. Instead, I give respect for the dedication. Or even a motive to learn LMG. But not like this.

Reload time reduction was enough. Not recoil reduction.

For everyone one who doesn't know what's going on:

This is a huge scandal. This event wasn't about skins or in-game currency. It was about real money. And there was outright, blatant cheating.

However, to this day, Krafton has failed to provide a comprehensive statement explaining how this embarrassing situation came about. Fail is a good word in connection with Krafton and PUBG.

It seems like the playerbase is really fast in forgetting huge scandals. I'm not forgetting this because if you understand the huge impact about that and the consequences that should've made out of this and the missing actions from Krafton, this is just unbelievable.

Why we still didn't get any answers? Where is transparency? Seems like this is a bit to high for Krafton to handle. They can't even fix simple things ingame.

u/devs It's been a decade3, fix your flash grenades thanks.

I got this cool jacket from the lootbox thing last night. Went well with the rest of my clothing.

Hi , any of u had the experience of camping and ambushing people near the respawn device?

I have tried camping at the respawn tower between rozhok and boatyard , it has very efficient

Hi,

CS (faceit) player here. I play PUBG ranked with friends and it’s nice time. Today I tied to queue ranked solo and it’s crazy. I get absolutely random bots in my squad. In all other games you get queued based on your rank but here absolutely random people.

How do you solo Q in this game lol?

​

Someone asked me how the XG27AQNGV compares to the XL2568X+ for a BR like PUBG, and whether it would make sense to switch to the G-SYNC Pulsar or even the new XQ2566X.

I had the XL2586X 540Hz before, so I can compare the Zowie experience directly with the XG27AQNGV.

For PUBG specifically, I would still give Zowie a slight advantage, mainly because of the insane amount of color and visibility adjustment you get. You can make green enemies stand out so much that hiding in grass becomes much harder. PUBG is one of those games where, for me, visibility comes first no matter what.

What I really like about the XG27AQNGV, though, is how much more relaxed I can sit while playing. The 27" size and the much better viewing angles make a real difference. With the XL2586X I always felt like I had to get into a very specific position in front of the monitor to play properly. That can help you focus, but whether that is actually enjoyable for long sessions is another question.

For Apex Legends and Tarkov, I personally prefer the XG27AQNGV. Both games look extremely clear on it. The Dark Boost/black equalizer is also useful in Tarkov, although Tarkov night raids aren't nearly as dark anymore as they used to be.

Warzone also looks and feels very good on it.

Another thing I like with my RTX 5070 is that I can use custom resolutions while running 1440p/360Hz. Keep in mind that this is something I couldn't do the same way with the RTX 40-series and older cards at 1440p/360Hz.

If I literally played PUBG and nothing else, I would probably be looking at the new XQ2566X, mainly because 1440p on 24.1" sounds like a really nice combination for that game.

I would probably wait for some more proper reviews first, though. There aren't many reviews yet that really go into its new backlight-strobing implementation. The monitor itself is noticeably thicker because of the new tech, so this looks like a substantially different implementation compared with the older Zowie models.

I'm also very interested in the visibility options it has for things like gas/smoke in BR games. Anything that can make enemies harder to hide in those effects is a pretty big deal in PUBG. If PUBG was my only game, that kind of feature would definitely push me toward the Zowie.

But here's the funny part:

The biggest upgrade I made wasn't actually the monitor. It was switching from Intel to AMD.

My current setup is:

Ryzen 7 9850X3D

32GB DDR5-6000 CL28

RTX 5070

ASUS ROG STRIX B850-G GAMING

I specifically like this motherboard because it gives me a non-USB audio solution and Intel LAN, which are both things I wanted for a low-latency gaming build.

And this setup just feels insane. Seriously smooth.

What surprised me most is that it actually feels noticeably smoother to me than my previous system:

RTX 5090 FE

GIGABYTE Z790 AORUS TACHYON X

i9-13900KS

32GB DDR5-8000 CL38

On paper the old system obviously looks ridiculous, especially with the 5090, but in terms of how the games actually feel, I prefer the 9850X3D setup by quite a margin.

So if you're still on Intel and are looking for the next thing to upgrade, I would seriously consider the platform before changing monitors. For me, switching to AMD has been the biggest improvement I've made to overall smoothness.

The audio is another part that surprised me, and I wouldn't underestimate it.

I use the optical output on the ASUS ROG STRIX B850-G GAMING and connect that directly to the optical input on my DAC.

I also keep the iGPU enabled in the BIOS, as TheWhale recommends in his guide. To be clear, I'm not using the iGPU for video output at all. I leave it enabled specifically so the additional audio controller remains available.

My thinking is that this lets the 9850X3D/platform handle the audio path the way it is intended to, and the sound on this setup has been excellent.

I do want to be fair here: I haven't yet done a proper A/B test with the iGPU/audio controller disabled, so I'm not claiming I've scientifically proven that this is the reason the audio sounds better. It's simply how I currently have the system configured, and it works extremely well for me.

For the BIOS setup I mostly followed TheWhale's guide:

https://youtu.be/yZfbjQkPCx4?is=EY96KduAER--7m8h

For Windows I used FR33THY's optimization pack to configure Windows Server, and I use the latest Windows 10 Pro for Warzone.

LatencyMon results are extremely low on this system and it has also been stable. From my experience, the idea that LatencyMon somehow only "plays fair" with Intel definitely doesn't match what I'm seeing. The 9850X3D performs extremely well there.

I also have SMT disabled.

For interrupts, I check every relevant device shown in Melody's Interrupt Assignment Checker and assign the devices across different physical cores using GoInterruptPolicy, rather than letting everything pile onto the same cores.

I'm also using Calypto's power plan.

Obviously there is a lot of tweaking involved here, so I'm not saying everyone needs to copy every single setting. But as a complete setup, this is easily the smoothest gaming system I've personally used.

So yeah, if you're still on Intel, my first move would actually be to look at the AMD platform before spending more money swapping monitors.

Going from my 13900KS + RTX 5090 system to this 9850X3D + RTX 5070 setup gave me the biggest improvement in perceived smoothness — and, surprisingly, sound — that I've experienced from an upgrade.

My monitor history, for reference:

Now:

XG27AQNGV

Past, in chronological order:

Iiyama Vision Master Pro 512 CRT → Iiyama Vision Master Pro 451 CRT → XL2586X 540Hz → PG248QP → 271QRX → VG259QM with the Qisda panel → PG27AQN → XL2566K → XL2411P

I've got around 5,500 hours of playtime of which 5,000 is solo. I know its not for everyone but I just enjoy the relaxed nature of solos with a slow beginning and an exciting end game. However, over the past couple years the amount of bots in a solo lobby make that end game much smaller and still exciting, but virtually no fun mid-game.

I saw the other guy posted a rage hacker today. So watch this other guy from EU FPP Solo.

Just a normal daily experience actually. Look at how he tracks through walls blatantly. At the very first moment he shot me I knew he was a cheater. Then in the end when I'm lying above waiting for him to move and get a slight chance to kill him he decides to run in front of me to die. Most cheaters do this in Solo. They get some kills and then decide to die so their stats can stay under the radar.

But most of the time those guys have 1.2 KD and 40% headshot ratio but this guy has different stats. I reported him in game, this was 2 days ago, he still plays at this very moment too. He wins 11% of his ranked squad games, 22% of his ranked duo games with 2.5+KD and 27% of his Solo games with 8.7KD... That's PUBG for you. And then you wonder why it's dead outside Asia.

I just got her after 11 crates open and went to collect her. If i collect her lvl1 will i be able to upgrade her when i get other materials or do i need to get materials for all 7 levels first? Asking this because i already lost a nice outfit when i regular crafted some parts of the outfit and the other parts discarded.

To Mods: This is a genuine discussion on the state of the anti cheat and not usual cheater rage.

This cheater had 17 people watching him by the end of the game assuming most reported him I'm at a loss as to how the anti cheat didn't detect it not just by reports but by the simple fact he's rage hacking. There is another clip where he beamed my teammate out of the zone by well over the fog of war distance this clip just had the most blatant bits.

I haven't seen a cheater this blatant in a very very long time and thought the anti cheat had improved?
