If you focus on looting meds, you should be able to last until the top 10 most of the time, all well outside the playzone. That's a little extreme, unless you like looting by yourself all game, so the compromise strat I like to implement is to try to make it into the zone when the 4th circle appears. That's when the circle starts eating 1% chunks of your health every second, which is pretty rough to just med through.<br /><br />But your graph has piqued my interest about how ranking is calculated. All I know for sure is that overall ranking is calculated with the following formula:<br /><br /> win rating + (kill rating * 0.2)<br /><br />That's nice, but it raises more questions than it answers. For example:<br /><br /> How is Win Rating calculated?<br /><br /> How is Kill Rating calculated?<br /><br /> What position do I need to place to improve my Win Rating?<br /><br /> How many kills do I need to get to improve my Kill Rating?<br /><br />I guess what I'm looking for is a formula that I can plug my placement/kills into and know what my new ranking will be immediately, instead of waiting for my profile to update. Is that possible?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01055248336657636316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-45135056093237164972017-08-09T08:03:37.105+02:002017-08-09T08:03:37.105+02:00My guess at an optimal "avoid engaging until ...My guess at an optimal "avoid engaging until the end" strategy:<br /><br />1) See the path of the transport plane coming in.<br />2) Jump out of the plane 3/4 of the way down the path.<br />3) glide to a small set of houses away from "good" zones (avoiding likely landing spots like the School or Prison)<br /> a) perpendicular to the flight path<br /> b) as far away from the flight path as possible.<br /> c) Towards likely vehicle spawn points<br />4) look for vehicles as you come to a landing<br />5) loot the houses near where you land for equipment<br />6) Once you see where the first circle is, find a vehicle and drive it not too close to a hiding spot in the middle of the first circle (unless that was in the middle of the flight path, then aim for the part of the first circle that was farthest from the flight path).<br /><br />I think rocks along the coastal cliffs are okay hiding spots. The cliffs on the upper rim of the Mine and the Prison too. You can always lock yourself in the closet or bathroom of an already looted house.Xmashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10512911190985990931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-53781362199926989792017-08-08T22:19:30.862+02:002017-08-08T22:19:30.862+02:00Yes, and it's no longer 68, it was before the ...Yes, and it's no longer 68, it was before the extra fan.

So in the identical situation, you have a 50% shot. It's only a matter of time before you get the game where you are #2 and the other number 2 is essentially identical to you. You can't assume the sole survivor is some total bad ass.<br /><br />Wait. The computer itself is in a different room, and you have cables going through a hole in the wall? What, you watched "Iron Man 2" and thought "Wow! This is a great idea!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-27968534670165526812017-08-08T10:10:25.808+02:002017-08-08T10:10:25.808+02:00http://greedygoblin.blogspot.co.uk/2009/07/my-room...http://greedygoblin.blogspot.co.uk/2009/07/my-room.html<br /><br />Still the same setup?
