[Untrod Tripod]

zor is pretty good at this scavenging simulator

[zoraster]

UT and I had a few pretty good finishes for him being so new. A 6th and a 7th place. He managed to get a kill on someone camping stairs in a house too.

Team Skittle too stronk

[Glork]

[Untrod Tripod]

you don't know my life

[Porochaz]

Best Score (so far) today - 9th.

Circle was a pain. Right in the north, got through to the 4th circle fine, healed up but very little cover.

19th in the second game. Was hiding in a house at the farm, someone was trying to steal my bike. Unfortunately my vantage in the house was blocked by a hay bale.

[zoraster]

first time playing 3PP in a while because the guy i'm duoing with prefers it. Got a nice chicken dinner with 6 kills, including one awesome car snipe. Highlights (2:40). You can tell I'm super used to 1PP by the way I actually move instead of free looking.

[Untrod Tripod]

we should SQUAD UP tonight

[hiplop]

IM IN

[zoraster]

might be tough for me. i've got a fantasy draft at 7pm PDT and need to eat otherwise. I'll be around Wednesday and Thursday evenings before I'm out for a week.

[Untrod Tripod]

#7 two games in a row woo

[DeathNote]

I can squad tomorrow

[Porochaz]

7th - died in the open field by Pochinski. Circle was good, but lost my nerve before a guy I had shot in one of those small huts. It was the right call, he died outside the playzone. But grr.

11th... Im good at surviving, just not at winning. It was unlikely I was going to win this one. I spent a large amount of time in a boat, entered the small island from the back but the circle insisted I go towards the Military Base. Hid in a bush, without a gun out, someone had obviously seen me in a buggy and splatted me.

SQUADDDDDDDDDDDDD

[zoraster]

Two good results today in squads, but both ended with the shrinking circle. The first was a win:




It ended 4v1 (I was in the 4) and the last guy was stuck in a sliver of a house with a window. Technically he could have tried to shoot us all but we knew where he was.

That was my first squad win.

The second ended on ferry pier (the actual pier), 2v1. I was on one side and the other team was on the other. And it closed on them so I was screwed.



I don't know if you can really tell, but despite having far more of the circle on my side of the pier, it actually collapsed on their position... which was maybe 3% of the circle's space.

A win is a win, but the shrinking circle end always feels a bit of a letdown to me either way.

EDIT: Actually I see my teammate got a nade kill to end the first! I assumed it was the circle because the timer ended.

[Glork]

Prozac and I just finished some games... 5th and something else as duo, then 5th and 2nd in a squad.


2nd place finish we actually had a 4v3 advantage, but they were up a hill from us and basically shot us like fish in a barrel.

[Porochaz]

Good games with Glork tonight. A 2nd in squad (and a 5th) but no win sadly.

[zoraster]

Nice!

Unrelated: has everyone set up crouch-jump bind? I mention this because right now it's the single biggest thing you can do to improve things. It's likely that you already try to crouch jump already, but if you aren't hitting 95% of the possible jumps (particularly through windows [including windows WITH glass in it]) then a crouch jump bind will be incredibly helpful. There's basically no excuse for not doing it. The only slight downside is that everrry now and then you end up crouching when you thought you were standing

[Randomnamechange]

Where would you recommend binding it to?

[zoraster]

your sprint key and your jump key. So Shift+Space by default.
