Played my first two games yesterday.

First, solo. Spent five minutes wandering around before I found anyone. Killed one, then got killed. Finished 29th.

Then I decided to try a squad match. One team mate launched from the bus, so I followed. Quickly caught up with him once we landed, and he immediately shot me dead.

Not really feeling much incentive to try it again.

That's a shame I think it's a fantastic game and amazing in a group.

Won my first full squad game last night:



And won (won is a very strong term here) my first solo this evening. Ignore the conversation with the missus if you can...

I've yet to experience any TKing, although I only play squad/duos with friends (so in squads that meant 2 randomers max)

SMG's getting increase in power is a good thing, I never ever pick them up because they are like shooting air at players.

Played this a bit last night and I think I'm starting to dislike it. The main problem right now is that the map is just too small. Played 5 games going to the remotest parts of the island and furthest away from bus as possible and still ended up being done in by 2-3 other duo's. We gave up after a while conceding that we couldn't find anywhere that was queit for more than 5minutes.

Also, SMG's are still awful.

Got two kills from sitting in the rafters of a barn with a blue SMG and murderising a duo who ran inside. It shredded them B)

You'd get same results with a shotgun, I think they are largely pointless tbh.

I do worse with shotguns in general - their lack of ammo is concerning. I find the non semi-auto shotgun especially useless

Won my 2nd ever solo this eve. I tried to build up to the top of a mountain, and was one set of materials short of making the summit. I jumped, just missed the landing and lost 98 health. Full shield and spare shields but no bandages so spent the rest of the game just trying to survive and find bandages. I found none but managed to get to the final 2 with some nice weapons, above some other guy and armed with a rocket launcher. Extremely lucky!

I won my first solo game on Monday night, and then my second last night - and in fact technically I won 2 games back-to-back B)

Great stuff!

Won my first Duos the other night which means I've won in all formats now. My PS4 isnt uploading to my YT anymore so can't share the end of that match :(

I'm up to 5 Chicken Royales now and a sh*t ton of top 10 places.

It's a great mode but the more I play the more I get impatient for PUBG.
