This game rocks, BTW. Playing it right now, totally addicted. Got 1st place in a solo battle last week, such a rush!

 

My buddy has been playing it all the time. He got first place with 1 kill... How is that fun?

 

Because Winner Winner Chicken Dinner.

 

Well.... I take back my comments about my buddy and him getting 1st place with only one kill.

I've been playing a bit the past few nights and it's definitely fun! Completely opposite of what I'm use to (Battlefield series) in regards to it's more strategy/teamwork.

The vector is so broken right now lol. Fully modded up it's pretty much an I-win button

 

Yeah I noticed that last night... Got killed by it a few times. :/

Also had some lag around 10-11pm EST.

 

The servers aren't great quite yet, but doing much better than say two weeks ago. Hopefully able to play on my laptop at work now

 

Yeah definitely improving. Latest patch is now online (been for a few hours).

What are the laptop specs?

 

Was gonna say that, haven't installed it but I want twitch all the time. Servers need some maintenance!

 

Fuuuuuck I got 2nd place last night in solos. Down to me and another guy, couldn't spot him, then he started spamming frag grenades and got me with a perfect 'nade. Ugh! I had such a great setup to. Got top ten 5 times in a row, 3/5/7/6/2

 

What's everyone's computer specs, settings, and FPS running this game? On the fence of purchasing. I'm still playing H1Z1 lol

 

Here is my specs. It's nothing fancy.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RMmLqk

I run everything on max except for foliage and shadows (per other people's reviews/videos). I only have a 60hz monitor and I'm over that with my FPS.

 

Yeah no matter your computer specs,this is pretty applicable. It's actually not THIS bad, but I still see most people hiding with foliage at lowest setting

 

I've added my info to the 1st post. Let me know your Steam username and I can add you to the 1st post.
