An amazing game to play with your friends and a refreshing type of PvP, both solo and squad. If you're feeling frustrated about getting dominated by your opponents even though your aim is great and you have experience from other games, know that in PUBG it's not about running into the fray and expecting your foes running into you doing the same. The game is about using tactics and environment to your advantage, positioning and rotating in a smart way. Solo game strat differs much from squad strat as well, and you'll oftentimes find solo players who play immersed and very safe make it to end game and win the chicken dinner with only one kill, while the player who goes for the hot drop location quickly draws attention and has to fight multiple enemies very soon because of how loud and reckless they are.

My pointers for new players:
- read up on attachment builds and don't neglect picking up the stuff for building the weapon set properly
- go to training mode and learn how to control recoil with the weapons and attachments you find suit you
- there is no "best weapon" and some players will favor an underdog they'll utilize better than the most popular weapon
- single shot midrange weapons like SKS or SLR utilize different grips than SMGs used for spraying and you might want to test your aim on some walls, with different attachments, to learn the difference
- never stay still peeking out from windows, that's how they snipe you easily
- the zone isn't always your enemy, take some painkillers and a soda to minimalize its negative effects during the first two phases and move through it if you need to

But more importatly, stay calm and don't get angered by players you lose to. Spectate them to learn how to play better from them, instead. It's a video game and it's meant to bring you fun, not frustration.
