Good to hear. The devs have pushed out a tentative fix for it with the latest maintenance.

My understanding is that, counter-intuitively, if you lower settings far enough, Unreal Engine (or most game engines?) wants to shift away from GPU utilization towards CPU utilization. At some point, your CPU becomes the bottleneck, and you have a moderately strong CPU and an insane GPU. So you want to be giving as much load as possible to the GPU (within reason), to free up the CPU as much as possible. That's why I'm saying it's worthwhile to try different settings (starting from the higher end) in-game, and check your CPU and GPU loads until you're sure you're using both to their fullest extent without pinning them at 100%. Otherwise, you're not just leaving frames on the table, but potential 'free' graphical fidelity as well.

Yep, this is correct. PUBG: Battlegrounds is a CPU heavy game. Lowering all settings to very low will cause the load to shift from GPU to the CPU, making the CPU have to do most of the work which in turn gives stutters and wacky frametimes.

If you load up your GPU with higher settings like AA, Post Processing, Textures etc you'll actually shift some of the work from your CPU, giving you better average fps.

It may not be the as high as you can get with low settings but the experience will be better and gameplay smoother.

Hey, thank you for the report. I'll get this to the dev team to look into.

Tip/Temp Workaround to avoid strange physics issues: If you make physical contact with vehicles before entering - they will correct themselves and appear properly on the ground. If you enter while apporaching, before your character makes physical contact with them while they are in that state, some strange stuff can happen, like the backflip that is being mentioned.

After the patch I get 20% packet loss constantly. No other games or internet are affected. Just Pubg. I've been trying to open ports and reinstalled the game, no luck. Also verified the game in Steam multiple times.

I've never had any problems with Pubg or any other game what so ever.

Any ideas?

Hey ref, there is an ongoing, known issue related to packet loss on some servers in NA and EU and the devs are working on fixing them.

There's f**k all healing items now Miramar and Erangel. Loot three four compounds and walk away with 30 bandages. Or kill 10 guys in Pecado and nobody has a single first aid kit.

Shit's wack

Thank you for sharing the feedback. I'm seeing other players say the same, will make sure it's seen!

As others claimed, the tactical pack will take some getting used to. Foes seem really OP. The spotter scope that marks enemies massively takes away from the realism. If spotting enemies in Warzone was a good thing, people wouldnt have abandoned that game.

FOR GODS SAKES WHY DID THEY REMOVE THE OPTION TO PULL PARACHUTE EARLY?

Hey Final, spotter scope will receive balance changes soon. The parachute pull issue is unintentional. The devs are working on a hotfix.

Holy shit fix the f**king parachute issue instead of forcing people to pull at like 5 to 300 m.

Hey, the devs are working on a fix. The issue will be patched asap.

Any news yet?

No, unfortunately I don't have one yet, still working on getting one!

Steps to reproduce:
- Drop from the airplane
- Try to deploy the parachute as soon as possible (which doesn't work until you get quite close to the ground)

The dev team is working on a fix. The issue will be patched asap.

Hey guys, please send us any clips of this issue if you can! Make sure the server info is visible under the minimap as well. Thanks

Make sure you don't have any game files disabled / deleted or modified. Following all the steps of the "COMPLETE A CLEAN INSTALLATION" in the guide below should get rid of all the game files and download fresh ones. https://support.pubg.com/hc/en-us/articles/900002196723-GENERAL-CRASHING-AND-PERFORMANCE-GUIDE

Hey, this sounds like a bug. If you could send us a few clips of this occurring with the match id / server info visible under the minimap, that would be great! Thanks!

Hey all, appreciate the ongoing feedback on this. The devs are working on introducing balance changes to the spotter scope. We'll have more info on that to share soon.

Hey all, please send us video clips of the issue with the server / match id details visible (found below the minimap).

Hey op, have a look at the guide below and do some basic PC troubleshooting, making sure your system and drivers are up to date.

Also try running the game without any other apps besides it like overlays, hardware monitoring apps, discord, obs that kind of stuff that people usually have open. Also check if you can notice a usage spike in task manager when the issue occurs and see what it is.

Ultimately, I'd love to gather a few video clips of this issue so I can report it to the team to look into. Thanks! https://support.pubg.com/hc/en-us/articles/900002196723-GENERAL-CRAS...

Items can drop in between containers like that yeah. Dropping any item would cause it to fall between the containters, not only the tac pac, provided you are in the perfect spot for it.

My guess would be because it is the largest compound/town in the mid-west area on the map.

Every other place around it is smaller, but also quite accessible as it's in the center of 6+ smaller compounds that are relatively close to it.

The user-based anti-cheat system is a failure in it's current state. Auto-banning accounts with thousands of hours and years playing the game based on "report" volume from new/inexperienced players is moronic.

Thanks pewpew, we are sharing all the feedback with the AC team. They are looking into ways to improve the system.
