While it doesn’t sound like a big deal, with the gameplay flying at such a fast pace, every second counts, and having the gun prepared will allow the player to be ready to fire without ever touching the menu to equip the attachm
For example, Death Totem has many uses. As mentioned it can be used to excellent effect when up against a single squad at close-range, and in general when in Death Protection you should be more ambitious and a bit more careless than usual – you will get a chunk of your health back on returning to the totem, after all, and as long as an enemy isn’t waiting at the totem for you to appear, you’ll be in a good posit
Then you have Bloodhound, the non-binary espionage expert. It’s a cool way to put a non-binary character in a AAA game, I feel, because whatever perceived “gendered” physical characteristics they might have are obscured by a gas mask and bulky clothing. Their appearance is calculated very deliberately to be genderless and ambiguous, which is a great artistic choice. Oh, and let’s talk for a second about Gibralter. Here’s this goofy and sweet beefcake who’s gay and doesn’t have some sort of sad backstory about it. He’s not cuckolded and sad like Soldier 76, whose story echoes literally every Hollywood movie ever written about gay men that’s not called Moonlight, or if he is, we don’t know about it. That’s rad as h
The Training Mode in both games is also slightly different. PUBG Mobile has Training Camp, while PUBG has Camp Jackal. Camp Jackal is significantly larger than Training Camp, meaning practicing long rang battles and driving cars will be much easier on PUBG . However, players can still use Training Camp to practice their mobile aim and driving ski
PUBG Mobile also lacks in the interior design aspect. There is little-to-no design inside houses, and a simple rug and shelf seems to be the only thing that decorates most interiors. Meanwhile, PUBG is much more detailed, with lots of additional decoration located around the walls and in the rooms. PUBG even adds extra small rooms like bathrooms or closet to fill empty space, whereas PUBG Mobile just leaves these spots o
And look – I’m not against sexy character designs. Actually, I usually like them! I’m a big fan of Senran Kagura and Dead Or Alive, and love the lengths fighting games go to make characters as horny as possible. But there’s a way to have something be sexy and make sense, which Overwatch just never does. Plus, the Overwatch designs pander to the dullest and straightest among us – not to mention the whitest. They uphold the hegemony of white, European beauty standards and apply them to characters of color, which just flat-out su
But it’s not just a social phenomenon. Video game branded clothing isn’t really that big in India, you’d only find it at select retailers or e-commerce sites. However, waves of knock-off PUBG branded apparel can be seen lining the street stores of fashion distri
season 12 Apex Legends’ Rampart is the Gun Queen of the games. She gets an innate LMG buff, and she carries her own massive weapon she affectionately calls “Sheila.” Pokémon has never dabbled much in the world of guns, so while Rampart can’t share her love of the smell of gunpowder in the morning, she could find a friend in Gurd
Well, I think I’ve given you a brief idea of the popularity (or infamy) of PUBG Mobile in the country. While politicians and representatives were up in arms about the game and its effects, there wasn’t really much done by the government about it until September 5, 2
PUBG had not only become India’s most popular game, but also became a reason for social gatherings. Instead of just hanging out and chatting at their usual spots, you’ll see kids and young adults specifically meeting to play PUBG Mobile. A cigarette or tea break from work usually included a round of the game. At a previous company, the entire design team would synchronize their breaks to dive into Erangel. The game even gave rise to a whole segment of streamers with millions of subscribers, something that was quite rare before PUBG took over the coun

To make it simpler, PUBG Mobile permeated into Indian pop-culture the same way Fornite did in the USA and other parts of the world. Before we understand why PUBG got so popular, there are a few things we need to understand about the country. India is a primarily mobile-based country with 97% of users running Android . The advent of budget smartphones like VIVO, OPPO, and MI has not only increased the accessibility to smartphones, but also widened the gap in Android’s fav
