The PUBG Corporation is seeking damages from NetEase over their violations, and also seek to shut down both Rules of Survival and Knives Out . This isn’t the first time that Pubg Loot guide has had issues in China – just a few months ago, over one hundred PUBG cheat makers were arrested in the country by police working in concert with Tencent, the company responsible for PUBG’s mobile port and Chinese localizat
Not all content will be entirely new; much of what’s planned for 2018 will be reworked content currently in the game, some of which has been long-requested by the PUBG player base. Of special interest are reworked parachuting and unarmed melee combat systems, both of which have been heavily criticized. Even larger is an overhaul of the entire Third Person and First Person mode animation system to increase smoothness and reactiveness, including new animations for switching car seats or entering a vehi
While Fortnite may seem to also be guilty of copying some of these aspects, that game also has notable differences, and the PUBG Corporation has been careful to distance themselves from past criticism on occasion. This lawsuit appears to be accusing NetEase of copyright infringement on the basis that the wealth of similarities falls under the “in combination with other elements” aspect of their description of the game; “a copyrightable audio-visual work, individually and/or in combination with other elements of Battlegrounds,” thus attacking the game for too closely resembling PUBG as a whole rather than in any one or two particular ar
Nonetheless, this latest iteration of Counter-Strike has not been without its issues over the years, and one noticeable problem is the use of item trading. Trading in CS: GO is effectively a mini-economy in its own right, with some players cashing in on earned skins for big payoffs, while there are ongoing concerns over the use of skins as a virtual currency for online gambling. Eventually, Valve decided enough was enough and has implemented changes, with a recently-traded item now stuck in a seven day cool down before it can be moved on ag
Rules of Survival and Knives Out are both 100-player battle royale games, featuring battles set on an island that players arrive to by parachuting from a plane. The battles, unsurprisingly, feature almost every staple of PUBG , from shrinking “safe zones,” to the collection of weapons and vehicles scattered across the
At any rate, for those hoping that the red zone is going away any time soon, you may just want to start heeding the on-screen warnings a little better…or, maybe, just avoid being anywhere near the red zone altoget
Earlier this week, the developer finally gave players on the game’s test servers the ability to choose their own maps . PUBG Corp plans to implement this change in the main game soon, and it’s not the only addition the game’s maps will be seeing this y
The battle royale formula was not entirely the brainchild of the PUBG Corporation – PUBG itself certainly derived content from pre-existing games – but since its success, there has been a trend of other developers copying the PUBG model. The PUBG Corporation has been openly critical of titles like Fortnite in the past for seeming to be copying their formula, but the company has never fought so strongly against another title as they are now with this lawsuit against NetE
Content is king, so it should be no surprise that planned additions to the game were the most prominent part of the PUBG roadmap. First up is a brand new 4×4 kilometer map, a quarter of the size of Erangel and Miramar, designed for faster, action-packed rounds. This small map will come to a new Experimental Test Server in April, but a second, standard-sized 8×8 map is also in development for a 2018 release, but is not yet ready to be sh
Today’s 2018 roadmap for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is hopefully everything players have been hoping to hear for some time. Certain topics commonly discussed by the community may have been absent from the roadmap, like balance and crates, but those were likely beyond the scope of the roadmap. Also at issue is the lack of a more specific release schedule, perhaps betraying PUBG Corp.’s lack of dedication to these pl
There’s no doubt that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is one of the most well-known games on the market today, as its introduction to the masses rejuvenated an interest in the battle royale genre as a whole, which gave rise to other famous competitors such as Epic Games’ Fortnite Battle Royale . With so many folks still vying for yet another Chicken Dinner in PUBG , it’s great to see that the developers remain dedicated in making the game run as smoothly as possible with updates like Patch
For competitive PUBG players, the team is already working on improving the current MMR ranking system and matchmaking. No forward-facing changes appear to be planned, like a reworked leaderboard system or publically-shared MMR, but maintaining a competitive environment is clearly still in PUBG Corps.’ periph
