I don't know, but it was cool to see everyone mowing down trees and working together on the ramp. I can't say I blame the guy for destroying it either. I found it pretty funny.

It's hard to get that kind of coordination from teammates much less a bunch of people in solo mode.

I did kill a teammate who was mad at me for not sharing something out of a loot box. He was following and shooting at me so I built a big ramp and bounce padded off and C-4'd the ramp before he could get to the pad.
But I don't think I'd be mean enough to drop that many.

I bet he wishes he recorded the replay.

A ton of gems in this educational commentary:



I foresee myself trying to use a lot more c4 in the future. Additionally, I foresee myself dying a lot more from c4 in the future.

Syphetpk also shows off a lot of his editing tricks. I suppose some of that has been taken away with the new opaque editing blocks.

When we run squads, we should have someone with c4 (our rusher). I think we make the mistake of everyone carrying their favorite items rather than carrying based on positions. We need to coordinate who will be aggressive and rush, who will be overwatch, etc.

Just a plethora of llamas

Finally got a chance to try the different ways to edit ramps without worrying about other players shooting at me. Now time to build shopping cart coasters with safety side rails

Would it be possible to build a rough Kyle Field starting with the soccer stadium?

Playground was so fun last night. Wish there was aim assist, but we resorted to sniper battles and made it fun that way. Should be adding in aim assist today hopefully.

Pro tip- build your ramp as a double wide up into the stratosphere and then put a bounce pad at the bottom. We built it by the motel and flew half way to anarchy. Stuck the landing too.

It is an amazing skill level. I'll watch his stream sometimes at lunch. It's always impressive when he "calls out" a play, "I'm going to do (blank), he is going to do (blank), and then I'm going to shotgun him in the face". A few seconds later, it plays out just as he predicted!?

In most gun fights, the only commentary going on in my head is "don't die, don't die!". I have come to terms with the fact that my skill level is being hindered by my TV. Hence, I might be forced to use the July 4th sales to get an upgrade on my big screen.

When I'm watching one of these videos and you see the other guy just throwing up random ramps and walls that don't connect I have to look closer and make sure it's not me. But hey, that's an improvement for me before I'd just use trees, rocks, or cars for cover.

Lots of moms are getting a $20 charge to their credit card tonight!? Fortunately for me and my mom, I have over 3k v-bucks in my account from StW. 2k for the skin, 1k for season 5. I'd be really interested to see want Epics balance sheet looks like after re-releasing this skin.

Haha, look at the people crying over the rerelease of this "rare" skin.

I finally bought v-bucks last week to get the Empire harvester tool and a non-default dance. May have to buy more to get this skin and finally shed the default skin

Or just buy the battle pass for season 5 in a week. Play through that and you will earn dances, skins, and enough v-bucks for the follow on season.

If you are an amazon prime subscriber, you can link your free twitch prime account and get 2 skins and dances that way.

Thanks, I do have a prime account so I will check that out. If they made an Untouchables skin to go with the drum gun, they would make a killing

Thanks for the heads up on linking Prime.

I need to complete the challenge of playing with 10 friends. Does that mean Xbox friends or Epic friends?

I wanted to see what all the kids were up too so I downloaded FNBR to my xb1 over the weekend. I cannot get a kill to save my life. I think I last logged into CSGO over a year ago (too many kids). Is there a mode where I can just kill people to familiarize myself with the weapons and tactics? I get one chance per game and it's mostly me strafing, shooting and getting killed

The playground mode is what you are looking for.

As stated above, go into the Playground mode. Use that to get a handle on building and familiarize yourself with the controls. Practice shooting the llamas (they show damage and explode when destroyed). Practice jumping/turning and shooting them as well. Change your sensitivity settings as needed until it feels comfortable. Then load a 50v50 or solo game and practice practice practice.

Edit to say that you should also add some of the people from page 1 and play with other Aggies in duos/squads after you get a hang for it. They can also help teach you strategy, etc. and it makes the game a lot more fun.

Add me and Snizz on the Xbox. We actually got a duos win yesterday. He's the only other Ag I see on regularly. It helps when you play with people instead of ranoms

Buying the Save the World piece helped me practice on maneuvering and shooting. It's $40 but you can also earn V bucks that pay for the battle pass and other skins/items on Battle Royale mode. Save the world also teaches you as you play missions.

I'm usually on Xbox throughout the week if anyone wants to add me. I've only had a few squad wins and yet to have more than 5 kills in a match but I have fun.

I'm completely get what you're saying...I installed it and have played a handful of games, but never got into it because I die so quickly and easily. This playground mode sounds promising to get a better handle on controls and the building aspect.

Edit- I don't see Playground as an option anywhere, only co-op pve (paywall) and 100 player pvp...I don't intend on spending money on this game given my experience so far.

This is funny, and really creative by Epic if they are behind this as expected.

Apparently llamas are spawning all over the place now. Let the hype escalate.

If I stumbled across one of those I'd have a hard time not loading it up and taking it home.
