I buckled and bought this last night. REALLY need to see how it is with a crew. It's just okay solo.

Holy sh*t, I just won PUBG my second time ever playing! Solo, to boot! Damn, that was intense! Okay, I totally get it now. Got four kills, each one was a pucker inducing palm sweating encounter, especially the last kill. Wow, what a rush.

Holy s***! Awesome. Word is if you turn off broadcasting in settings before playing it really helps with the frame rate. Obviously you cant capture any videos etc. while playing.

This game has plenty of hilarious moments. My favorite is when a guy goes screaming past me and while I'm debating what to do (shoot or lay low), some shot rings out of nowhere and takes him down. I'd say 90% of the time when I decide not pull the trigger, it ends up being the right move (at least until it gets below 20 or so).

The internet would sorely miss a video of me once again dying outside the f---ing zone. :lol:

Snuck into the top 10 and placed 9th in Solo. Was in a great location until the very end and almost pulled it off.

Just played several rounds of squad with some good guys. If they can iron out the technical issues, this game is really gonna be something.

I was able to sneak in a few rounds last night, kind of nice knowing I can fit this game into a small window of time since each game is pretty darn short for me.

My favorite moment was when a handful of us parachuted into the same small area and decided to just start a fist fight. The guy who found a gun in one of the houses cleaned up, but I managed to pick up a kill at least.

Finally got a chance to play it on the 1X, man I thought the frame rate was janky on the PC but this is worse. However it is clear this is full of new players as I went really far in my first solo match. :D

Man, I think they have finally made a shooter for people that suck at shooters. I've played around 8 games and been in the top 5 four times and the Top 10 six times.

Fun game and is better than Fartnite in my opinion. Better maps. The vehicles. No weird ass building stuff.

It does need a 50v50 mode!

That's a good way to put it, even though I haven't had as much success. Almost every game has something happen that is either funny and/or intense, other than the occasional super-quick death before anything really happens. But at least you jump right into the next game.

Last night, I luckily ran into someone with an aim as bad as mine and I chased after him for a couple minutes until finally punching him out after he stopped to try to shoot me with a shotgun again.

Ah, you f*ckers: Traded in three games at Gamestop and bought PUBG. Call it the DSP Forum effect. :)

Enjoyed my first foray into the game last night. Great gunplay, strategy and tension overcome XB360-quality graphics and some janky framerates. I expected the framerate on my original XB1 to be worse based on the launch horror stories, but it appears the first patch helped.

I need another shooter like I need tooth decay, but PUBG fits a very nice niche in my collection. As Teal said, it's like the Hunger Games meets ARMA. Bull's eye.

Pretty sure this started out as an ARMA mod which is why I've not had much problem with controls since playing all those games.

We have to set up a game night as squad mode is more fun.

FWIW, we're at my parents for an early Christmas gathering, I won't be home until tomorrow evening, and dammit all, I'd love to fire up PUBG right now and see how far I can go. This game has that quality to it. I like it.

I haven’t been around the past two nights so I haven’t played. I should be around Saturday night though.

Was a lot of fun last night fellas, hope we can do it again soon... maybe tonight? My family comes back tomorrow so tonight is my last totally free gaming night, maybe we can actually help Teal in a game.

Best quote of last night "Teal you're a f***in Navy Seal!"
