There’s fun to be had as a social experience, and PUBG is certainly better than the sum of its many subpar parts, but the resources earned through the record-breaking success of PUBG have not translated into a game that holds up in the current climate of high-end shooters, and we can only hope that if major updates (or a sequel of sorts) are on the way, that PUBG’s success supports a triple-A experience instead of a frustrating one that looks and feels dated. But given where we’re at now, after nearly two years since its first release, and the fact that PUBG Corporation released the game in this state on PS4, there’s little h
Of course, the core elements of the battle royale genre were well established long before its release, but PUBG pulled the essential experience together and delivered it to a much bigger audience. The fact that it’s still the go-to solution for a more grounded, realistic battle royale experience today is a strong testament to its wo

Ranging from meager pistols to powerhouse rifles, there is a weapon for every scenario and playstyle. With a big roster of weapons comes the question as to which weapon players should priorit
The Culling has a troubled history, to put it mildly. It preceded even PUBG , hitting the market in early 2016 and launching to significant praise. However, it would squander all of this initial goodwill over the course of barely a single year, halting development on the freshly released title in favor of a new game, The Culling 2 . Fans were less than enthu
There isn’t much to say about AWM except it has by far the highest damage in the game. A single headshot from AWM is capable enough to knock out a player with level 3 Helmet. The gun is incredible in every possible way and is air-drop exclusive, rightfully so. AWM deals maximum damage up to the range of 150 meters after which, its damage starts to fall till the range of 679 met
There isn’t one particular weapon that rules the game, and a lot depends on the player’s playstyle. However, it becomes very apparent, very fast, that there are high tier and low tier weapons in PUBG , and even though every weapon is competent in wiping out enemies, some produce better results than others. Here is a list of the best weapons in the game as well as duds that should be avoi
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.

M416 is the only non-air-drop 5.56 weapon that is still in the high tier. Even though it has been nerfed multiple times in the past, the gun still is a solid option that is fit for every situation.

Beginning October 1st and running into early 2020, players of the mobile Game Adaptations version of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds will have a chance to traverse the battlefield as familiar heroes from The Walking Dead , or a certain iconic villain.

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
Even if we compare the OG maps from these two games it’s a bit of a toss up as to which is the winner. Sure Fortnite has Tilted Towers, but PUBG has School; and in case you don’t play the latter, School is a place where half of the lobby’s players drop resulting in a massacre that leaves only one or two survivors who are barely clinging to life. But that’s just the OG maps, PUBG now has four unique maps, all of which are just as good as the original in their own rights. Fortnite is finally making an alteration to it’s original map, so there’s not much competition h
