NOTE: This is not my main language, so dont hate me for gramatical mistakes

Q: I got one-shooted with shotgun and i had armour and helmet?
- Yes, shotgun can 1shot you in the head even with helmet, same applys with bodyarmour. ( It still happens after shotgun rework )

Q: I shoot so many times that guy, and he doesnt die, why?
- Crafted armour can absorve 1 body-shot, the laminated armour can absorve 2 body-shoots from rifles, be sure you have one equiped aswell to improve your chances. Helmet absorves one shoot aswell, so someone fully equiped, can take 6 shoots from a rifle without dying.

Q: How do i craft a armour?
- You need a militar backpack, a helmet and a duck tape. Shred the backpack and helmet, then go to the craft section, select armour, and press E once.

Q: Where i find sniper?

Hold E key and release it when it does the first spin ( after update there's a option for it )

Yes and no, cars spawm always at same places, but random, some games it will spawm there, others game it will not.

Q: I died to a guy and he lived with 0 hp?
- He used a trick called pre-med, he used a med kit before fighting you, so when he lived with 1/2 hp, he didnt die to bleed cuz the med kit was healing him.

Q: I died behind a car?
- Most of the time when someone ducks behind a car to heal or re-equip stuff, you can see his feet under the car, and you can shoot them.

Q: Why people land faster than me?
- People land faster than you cuz they have faster PC / connection, or both. aiming straight down helps.

Q: Is there fall damage in this game?
- In the first's seconds after you get out of your parachute you dont have fall damage, so you can jump off building top's without damage, after that you have fall damage.

Q: Ak or AR?
- Ak have faster shoot rate, so it's ideal for close ranges, AR have better recoil, so it's better at longer ranges. My advice, master one of them, and keep it.

- Nothing, at least for now. ( You only get prices in tournaments )

Q: Does guns affect my running speed?
- No, movespeed only is affected by sprint or water

Q: Does weight affect movement speed?
- No, movespeed only is affected by sprint or water

Q: Do itens spawm completly at random?
- Yes and no, random places, but not at random areas, meaning if you want to get med-kits, you should look at hospitals, and WC. They have the higher % of spawm.

Q: How much damage melee weapons do?
- Quite a lot actualy, if you dont find a gun, it can save a life. 20 to 30 per hit, depending on the melee weapon.

Q: My helmet is damaged? should i replace it?
- No, helmet can be damaged but it will still block 1 shot from rifles. The reason that it is damaged is cuz someone shoot you with a shotgun far away from you. Same can be applied to crafted armour.

Q: Can i predict the missiles from the plane?
- Just look up, and stay away from under the plane while it is crossing.

Q: Wheres the perfect spot to land on?
- While you dont realy know the map, and the most common car spots, you realy should aim for the middle of the map, so when the gas comes, you always are close at least to the edge of the circle. Tip: you can also parachute further if you strafe mid air. just like bunny hoping on others games.

Q: I see a item on the ground but i cant pick it up?
- Some are bugged, some you can pick it, but you will have to place urself to the correct angle to achieve it. Try phroning with first person, using T key, and try pick it.

Q: If i kill 20 and get placed 3, will it give more points than placing first with 1 kill?
- No, place always give more points than kills, kills are like tie brakers, so you should focus getting to the last alive, rather than kill alot.
