Dr Disrespect loses mind over “sickening” PUBG weapon balancing

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, which he says could be one of the worst features in video game history. 

The popular Twitch streamer, who has been constantly grinding out victories in Sanhok, Miramar, Vivendi, and Erangel for his patented PUBG four map challenge, couldn’t believe his eyes during his May 27 stream. 

The Doc had already put in the time to loot up and with only 24 players left in the match, his chances of claiming a Chicken Dinner looked very high – until he ran into a problem.

Dr Disrespect - TwitchDr Disrespect has been known to rage while playing PUBG in the past, but seemed to be enjoying the game until running into this potential issue.

“One time! And I’m down 70-80 percent” Dr Disrespect shouted, after being hit by what he claimed to be an SLR body shot from afar. “Once! This stupid ass… Get me out of this game. It’s so fucking stupid.”

His rage wasn’t finished there, as he added: “It makes me so mad to get hit by an SLR one time in a level 2 vest and I’m down 70 percent health. It makes no sense to me, none. None!”

The Doc claimed that issues like this, in terms of the damage system that he says was at fault, makes him want to exit the game immediately and he would clearly like to see adjustments made in the future. 

The Two-Time speculated that he might have been double tapped in the exchange, which didn’t seem to be the case. Nevertheless, he continued his tirade against the game for a few moments after his elimination, taking aim at another feature. 

“Plus, the audio sucks in this game so you can’t hear where they’re shooting from,” he said after calming down a little. “Plus, the player mechanics are some of the flimsiest mechanics I’ve played in any game, right? Horrible.”

The footage does appear to show that the Doc was eventually taken down with the Kar98k, but he claimed it was actually the SLR that did the initial damage. 

Whether or not this is an issue that PUBG would like to take a look at in the future remains to be seen, but it certainly put an end to his trademark violence, speed, and momentum on this occasion.
