Playerunknown s Battlegrounds: A Beginner s Guide To Survival

This is the part where many gamers rightfully bash PUBG into the the grave that it deserves to die in after introducing it's shady business practices. First, charge for a game that's an unfinished buggy mess that continued to be an unfinished buggy mess for years to come. Second, bring in a shady micro-transaction lottery system that rewards you with crappy cosmetic items for a bloated price. Third, copy the fair and successful battle pass formula that Fortnite has implemented since the start of the series. Boy are those PUBG devs shady, and while the Epic Game's higher ups are no less shady, they at least implemented fair business practices in their most profitable g


When it comes to the technical aspects of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on PS4, those looking for an experience rich in graphical and sonic fidelity will walk away sorely disappointed. It must be noted, though, that unlike the way in which the title released through Xbox Game Preview about a year ago, PUBG on PS4 is at the very least stable, despite the sporadic environment bugs and avatar errors that can generate weird, but brief glitches. Plus, it manages to run at a decent frame rate for the most part, save for some isolated instances of stuttering and slowdown when certain areas are highly populated with players at the beginning of a ma


Not to mention, controlling the third-person camera tends to be a nuisance. This is chiefly true when players enter into a small, cramped building, as the perspective often cannot find a happy medium between being too close and too far away. One rarely gets a good handle on their surroundings in tight locations, leaving them open to unforeseen atta


Addressing all of these issues in Early Access will help round out the game and ensure everything works when the game gets its final release and reaches PS4 and Xbox One, where it will have to address new issues related to cross-pl


It's just you, a straightforward perspective and absolutely no cheese at all. It makes sound much more important too, as now with your reduced perspective you have to rely on all of your senses. Another caveat is you pay a lot more attention to the detail and the graphics of the g


Utilizing these tips when engaging in a round of Playerunknown's Battlegrounds can allow for both success and survival. As new players become more comfortable survival will become second nature and mastery will be within re


Fortnite and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, better known as PUBG, are the two biggest battle royales to date. As of March 2019, the most recent data, Fortnite has a registered player count of 250 million users, blowing PUBG on PC's player count of 500,000 users out of the wa


What's missing is the ability to keep the camera on the left side when a player isn't aiming. Since tightening your aim in the game slows your character's movement, the lack of a shoulder swap forces players to choose between better visibility and better movem


While kill cams throughout PUBG would likely thrill players, they wouldn't work well in group matches, where dead players could then tell teammates where a hidden enemy killed them from. Still, for the final kill of the game, a kill cam would be a great way to show the player who died and the player who won how the last moments unfolded. Bluehole Studios appears to be working on a match playback feature but it's not clear if it will also work as a kill cam right when the match finis


Settings like Foliage and View Distance also lack clear information about how the different levels affect what's seen in the game. Players should be clearly told if these settings will reduce quality of whats seen or if they reduce the draw distance of obje


The training mode is an excellent beginning to developing knowledge of the mechanics of the game. It is not, however, the only thing a new player must do to learn how to survive. The next step in survival is to learn basic PUBG strat


All of this is not to say that PUBG on PS4 isn't fun, as it's definitely a serviceable experience for Battle Royale aficionados who want a more strategic and deliberately paced alternative to competitors like Fortnite and Black Ops 4 's Blackout . Unfortunately, though, there are still a host of problems that PUBG Corp. needs to address so as to justify the PlayStation 4 port's $30 price


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' œcrate and key system isn't supposed to come until the game launches in full but of course, money talks so it's coming NOW. According to Greene and the devs, it's for testing but they're selling items already for real cash so take that for what you will. The goal is to provide a "healthy economy" after launch to keep monetizing the player base for future updates and content additions (like the two in-development maps). All the items are cosmetic only and should not affect gameplay. Still, microtransactions during early access are tough to swallow, especially for a game that's selling so well right now. The other concern is that because the in-game cosmetics count as Steam inventory items, players can sell for real-world cash which can lead to skin gambling/market issues like CS:Hitman GO Mobile had to deal with recen
