I do like the change to reviving when you were zoomed. But otherwise who cares?

That said, the last patch where the improved the reload time is still amazing to me every time. Before it'd stay on that black splash screen forever. Now it's like immediate load back to lobby.

Is it going to be forced 1st person? Or will you have the option for both?

There will be a mode for 1st person only. In the Arma BR's, it was called hardcore mode.

They'll be almost be caught up to the Arma BR's feature wise. All that is missing really is night time. It's pretty amazing how far this game has come along is just a few months.

FYI: Lots of reports of people not seeing others drop in their area, (Not seeing chutes) only to be blasted by a team the other team didn't even see drop. (Happens in Solo, Duo, Squad). FYI. Has been happening the last couple patches so if you think you are going insane, you aren't.

That makes a lot of sense now....

I have video proof of that shit after countless people on reddit said others were crazy and just not paying attention.

Ya, the stealth chutes are real.

"Hey, do you see any chutes?"
"No"
"Sweet, we have the spot to ourselves!"
*15 seconds later, someone pops out and murders you*

Anyone getting frequent network lag detected errors and it doesn't fix/resolve outside of just timing out/quitting to menu? I've had approx 4+ games today where it's happened and it's just frustrating. I've been on discord with someone and we don't lose connection or anything.

Yeah, that happens occasionally to me as well. I assume the servers are getting overwhelmed.

Weird thing is, it's during a game. so not sure how the server being overloaded is a thing, and the people im teamed with don't lose connection, they just see me running in a straight line, eventually run over by another group in a car or shot.
