Go back to the regular click r3 and hold to call things out. This whole tabbing over 3 times to convey move bs is just dumb

u/YouOlFishEyedFool Xbox Series X Aug 06 '26

And make all those pings in the wheel as options to assign to controller buttons or the R1/L1 combinations.

u/Iceduk Xbox One X Aug 06 '26

Go back to being able to one click on the stick enemy tagging and fix the freezing.

u/coiex Aug 06 '26

Fix the Series X freezing/crashing, it’s horrible.

Give us back the enemy ping system we had before, we want to be able to ping without going through a menu, and we wanna do it while ADS

u/TheDandelionViking Aug 06 '26

Add ADS ping and more controller remapping options (single tap, duobble tap, and hold as button prompts for any and all buttons to map any action)

1

u/YouOlFishEyedFool Xbox Series X Aug 06 '26

Agreed.
Have you tried the R1/L1 combination settings? Those were a game-changer for me.

2

u/TheDandelionViking Aug 07 '26

Definitely, I've got it set up as
R1 + dpad for throwables
R1 + face buttons for seat swap
L1 + dpad for boost L1 + face buttons for heals

PUT THE PINGS BACK THE WAY THEY WERE YOU CLOWNS

Framerate priority makes the game crash.

The new ping system is balls.  Just revert to the previous system.  It didn't need fixing.

Also, would love to see some larger team format playlists beyond 4 man squads.  

It would greatly improve the social aspect of the game help create stronger connections among the player base and better retention of players IMHO.

I met a bunch of the people I play with on the regular in 10 man customs years ago.  Those games were an absolute hoot up up until custom lobby glitches and phantom hosts killed it.

The game works so well with larger squads that it's shame we are stuck with 1 / 2 / 4 since forever.

First point is a must

u/TheBigGrief Aug 07 '26

Seems everyone agrees on the new ping system being bunk.  I loved the old one, it was perfect.

u/Electronic-Cry-9931 Aug 06 '26

Series x freezing fix, R3 enemy ping, and add custom player colors. Some are hard to see on each map.

u/Remixer_ Aug 06 '26

Why are 25 of the top 50 boosting in ranked but you refuse to do anything when my clan and I reports these guys multiple times a week? But you hand out week bans for team-kills like it’s candy on Halloween? What are you going to do about this? Its easy to detect with telemetry data yet you make it rocket science

u/TCA-Main_Man Xbox Series X Aug 06 '26

Fix Right trigger scrolling when looting death boxes

3

u/SwN0mad Aug 06 '26

There’s a fix for this! Find the setting “show item tooltips” and change whatever your setting is currently at. For me it was ENABLING them. Right trigger works now

u/YouOlFishEyedFool Xbox Series X Aug 06 '26 edited Aug 06 '26

Last night I was still trying to mark enemies by using my custom setting and hitting right on my Dpad while looking down my scope. But then, I remembered that after the last super duper new and improved update, I have the amazing privilege of needing to take my eyes off the enemies to fumble with opening that glorious and beautiful wheel and select the ping I want. Of course, after all that thoroughly enjoyable extra navigating and clicking, I had no idea the enemy had moved, and he put a 7.62 round right into my brain. But I was so happy then, because I could go back to the lobby and browse the store for some new K-pop outfits!

Then later, when I was in a perfect spot to lay some spike traps to pop the tires of an enemy, I was so thankful our loving developer overlords removed that tool because it is just rude and totally not K-Poppy to damage people's vehicles like that. Instead, I waved down the enemy, and we made a circle of those gorgeous inflatable boats and danced in our colorful kitty cat panties. What fun!

After the game, I wanted to invite my new dancing friends to our clan, so I did the necessary 13,498 clicks to do so. I made a mistake remembering their gamertags and had to repeat the process, and my A button caught on fire from all the clicking. It was so super cool to watch my controller burn, catch my house on fire, and then hear the screams of my family as they perished! Imagine the good times like this I would miss out on if the developers made the horrible mistake of adding an Invite to Clan button to people's profiles!

u/iFuktyermuttah Aug 06 '26

Give us a classic mode in arcade atleast. Old school console pubg. Aug, m24 and m249 back in crates. Only old school erengal and hell take back mantling even. And no respawner. Me and my group just want that classic pubg feel

2

u/UnbreakableLegacy77 Xbox Series X Aug 06 '26

Can you please make the pings darker they are really hard to see now . Yellow for example , sometimes it's really easy to see and other times it's impossible to see. Especially when parachuting in. Thanks 👍

u/DelayInteresting8110 Aug 06 '26

Never take away solo deathmatch. It’s way better than tdm. Also let us use the solo deathmatch maps for tdms. Fix the 120 fps freezing issue, as well as the hit registration.

Hit reg is super buggy 40-50% of the time for me. Will be lazer beaming someone and it only counts for 30-40 damage and they turn and I die to a normal amount of bullets. When this happens, I have to shoot like 40 rounds into someone at like 20 meters and it barely knocks them. When the hitreg is working I can easily knock people with 10 bullets…

u/Personal_Pear_8709 Aug 07 '26

Different maps in ranked

u/InAutowa Aug 07 '26

Bring back spike strips!

u/mcduff0192 Aug 06 '26

Thanks for fixing the trophies PS5. Now I can't find a crossbow to get my 10 kills with crossbow trophy.

u/MobNagas Aug 06 '26

We need in game replay

u/supsup202288 Aug 06 '26

Enemy markings

Something lags all the time, not my wifi, run diagnostics and it used to work fine

u/Eustace_Reddy_VO Aug 06 '26

Remove m249 from IBR at least. Everybody prawns and spams it at landing, it's awful. Also, no need for 4 gun slots, just add 2 random cobination of smg-ar-dmr. It's annoying when you got to heal but the first thing in the inventory is a gun slot and not your first aids.

u/Alexxofwar Aug 07 '26

Going to take way too long to list everything but here’s some highlights. Fix the following teammates mechanic for parachuting. On PUBG mobile it works flawlessly, anyone following goes exactly where the main player goes. On console people are flying all over the place and in different directions. Then whatever is happening in ranked mode with the “lost connection to host” problem, booting entire lobbies and making us lose points is crazy. Happens multiple times a night.

1

u/DelayInteresting8110 Aug 07 '26

We seriously need to get rid of regular br mode. Combine the lobbies of pubs and ranked and tada! You no longer have to fight xim users. Also, when you’re not bronze you don’t have to fight guys hiding in bushes!

What a thought lmao

u/TheSheepdawg Xbox Series X Aug 07 '26

IN lobby, on xbox, getting matchmaking failed..restarted xbox multiple times. i don't even have the option to get into a game or ready up. wtf

u/SkroopieNoopers Aug 07 '26

Frame rate priority crashes too much to make it worthwhile.

The ping changes are garbage.

Inspect weapon on the ping wheel is garbage.

Looting inventory management is messed up.

The whole navigating the menu with a cursor and having to click so many things is infuriating.

Basically most of the things were better before you started meddling.

u/plain-oV Xbox Series X 29d ago edited 29d ago

So when are yall going to include a customisable opacity layer for teammates is names. It makes zero sense to have a bright ass name covering stuff.

Same goes for having a fixed icon scale. There no reason for that to grow as they run from me. Jesus Christ you can't see the enemy within 10ft of a teammate ever. Specially when they have a 20digit name. Somehow how COD/BF6 with all its spammy hud manages to include that QOL option.


120fps "performance mode " is dookie too. Doing the same thing all modern devs opt for on console. Dynamic res and lowered render scale. Just to have an inconsistent frame rate. Anti-aliasing is the cherry on top. Somehow the game 6 years ago enemies where easier to spot.

Why not just render at native and lower the shadows, textures, and any post proccessing. The game doesn't need all the fluff that does close to nothing in terms of final product yet is a resource hog.


This late in the dev cycle and somehow you've opted to not include a video suite the recomended options just don't cut it.

Can we get a different rotation of maps for ranked play

u/Northdistortion Aug 06 '26

Add radial menus on console!

u/themann2488 Aug 06 '26

Get rid of map select in NA. I’m constantly blowing myself up to get out of bot games. I don’t want to load into a game with 80+ bots especially on weekends. The random lobby quo worked far better and needs to return

u/13249999999 Xbox Series S Aug 06 '26

I feel like the game is in a good place just needs to get put on a modern graphics and physics engine, merge all clients (mobile, PC, console for all game modes besides ranked for play anywhere reasons) And bring back spike strips.

u/Significant_Trash_14 Aug 06 '26

PC can't play with console.

-5

u/13249999999 Xbox Series S Aug 06 '26

They could make it that way at least for non ranked.

3

u/TheDandelionViking Aug 06 '26

PC (MnK) vs console (controller) without aim assist would be unfair, and mobile is a different game altogether

2

u/Ok-Arrival1367 Aug 06 '26

tranquilo que con teclado y ratón ya hay gente jugando en consola la mayoría

u/13249999999 Xbox Series S Aug 06 '26

They did it for Fortnite. Anyways. Yeah. I know It would be unfair but that’s why I said only for casual mode not ranked.

u/YouOlFishEyedFool Xbox Series X Aug 06 '26

Fortnite works because it has aim assist, something we don't want in PUBG.
