“It is an overwhelming voice already! And people say there’s no reason to it but it provides audio cover, it really looks cool when you’re fighting in it. And really, you shouldn’t be dying to the red zone. If you’re dying to the red zone then, I’m sorry but you’re not a very good player. It’s like, you know there’s a hundred meter safe zone around the edge of it, if you’re in a building there’s a very little chance of you getting hit, it’s there for a specific reason, it looks really cool and it provides tension. If you’re trapped in a fight in the red zone, it’s exciting! People say that it has no reason, but it does. It’s there for a very specific reason which is providing audio cover and even when it’s a little bit in the distance it provides enough cover to run a little bit, so, there are reasons. But, that said, if there is an outpouring of hate towards it, we may consider
PUBG Mobile has drummed up some controversy for its use of bots for players’ first few games. This seems to have been a tactic to ease players into the mobile battle royale experience, but nevertheless, “winning” fake Chicken Dinners rubbed fans the wrong way. Now, that’s not to say bots, in general, are a bad idea. In fact, it’s easy to see how they could add to the PUBG experience on other platfo
It seems like a lot for one year, but with the amount of people still playing PUBG and the boom that is happening right now in the battle royale scene, PlayerUnknown and the team at Bluehole are in for some stiff competition and they’ll have to work hard if they want to keep up.
PUBG Mobile features a lot of smart gameplay tweaks compared to its counterparts that help it feel very natural on mobile devices. But while these changes seem to have been made with the mobile version in mind, they could also be used to improve the PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds experience on PC and Xbox One as w
The test servers will be home to a lot of tweaks to gameplay as well. Bullets don’t currently penetrate through limbs or vehicles, but this mechanic will be tested out soon. This in an attempt to add depth to the ballistic system and to make the game feel more realistic. He reassures players that they will be listening especially closely to player feedback on that one.
Some of the PUBG team recently took a trip to South East Asia in order to draw inspiration from its unique geography. One location in particular, the Phraya Nakhon cave near Bankok, Thailand, will be serving as the primary inspiration for the cave system being implemented into the map. As seen in the image above, the cave looks like a giant hole in the gro
The new and much smaller 4×4 km island map will be released on the test server in April. It is meant to give a shorter, more intense experience with the same number of players. An 8×8 km map is also on the way to the test servers.
2018 will bring new looks and sounds to Battlegrounds as well. They’ll be working on overhauling their animation systems, which will make things look smoother and more realistic. Some buildings, plant life and other environmental assets will be reworked, and customizable parachutes and weapon skins are also on the docket. In terms of sound, the focus will be on greater detail when it comes to vehicles and on-foot movement. Driving will sound more realistic with suspension and skidding sounds, as well as environmental differences like weather and road conditions that will change how the wheels sounds against the ground. While on foot, they want to make it so that your movement noises will sound different depending on what you’re carrying. They’re also planning to change the way guns sound depending on your POV and changing how your character’s breath sounds depending on whether you are running, aiming or holding your breath.
As people have been quick to note, the Ghillie suit is available to all PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds players for free. Many players also rush to find it in pockets of loot across the map because of its effectiveness and so the suggestion that the Ghillie suit is a useful cosmetic is not necessarily news. But this section of the lawsuit does raise a larger question about how cosmetic loot can affect gameplay even if it doesn’t provide any discernible buffs to attributes and st
The developer goes on to note that in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds , players must “visually detect” other players because of the lack of player indicators seen in other shooter games. PUBG Corp. is using this particular section of the lawsuit to assert that games like Rules of Survival have also ripped off the style of cosmetics offered by PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds . These cosmetic similarities, the developer appears to suggest, should be taken seriously because they actively impact the core, PUBG gameplay experience. It also argues that the visual design of these cosmetics is a “protectable” w
While the lawsuit is one to watch given that it could have significant implications regarding other PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds clones, this isn’t the only reason why people are talking about it. In an excerpt of the lawsuit, PUBG DLC Corp. also admits that the game’s cosmetics affect gameplay. The quote from the developer re
