Has anyone achieved the luxury of having a fair 1v1 on this map? I swear it's a third partying simulator. Every gunfight I'm in I'm either being the third party or getting third partied.

Sometimes I hate PUBG decision makers
submitted by /u/Prince_Kebaboni to r/PUBATTLEGROUNDS [link] [comments]
BRDM- Add fun thing to ranked, sweats complain about fun thing in ranked, nerf it on all modes instead of just removing it from ranked
C4- kill 90% of usage of the item, be shocked no one picks it up, reduce spawn rate
Seriously what is going on in PUBG HQ??

SEA server in Perth?
submitted by /u/teppi_777 to r/PUBATTLEGROUNDS [link] [comments]
What about instead of bringing back the OCE zone just add another SEA zoned server in Perth? This would make all of Australia and NZ very happy I believe. In my case it would shave off about 40 to 50ms from the connection to Singapore. Even for people in Singapore and nearby that server would be very good with pings around 50 to 60ms I think.
I think the move to abandon the OCE zone was correct but left most of us in AUS/NZ with pings above 100ms which negatively impacts the overall positive experience of having way more people in the lobbies.
Please Krafton, if anyone is reading here .. at least consider it between the coffes at the next meeting. Having a stable player base in AUS and NZ has to be worth something. 🙂
Thank you!
