**PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** quickly changed the game industry substantially after releasing in early access in March 2017. It took all the learnings (and namesake) of Brendan "PlayerUnknown" Greene's previous works - where he crafted battle royale modes within ARMA 2's DayZ mod and consulted on Sony Online Entertainment's H1Z1 - and brought forth the large-scale and gritty battle royale experience together with Korean developer Bluehole, Inc. for which Greene serves as Creative Direc
P18C: The P18C is an autofire pistol that can chew up opponents at close to medium range. Perhaps, it's the most deadly pistol in PUBG . If players are having a difficult time finding a decent arsenal during a match, then this pistol is a good sidearm to start with and hold o
SCAR-L: Players who don't fancy "single-shots" with assault rifles will most likely cling onto the SCAR-L due to its impressive rate of rapid-fire. It's the most effective rifle when it comes to "mowing down" other players it can do hefty damage. It doesn't have the best range, but for close-quarter skirmishes, this is a prime assault rifle to h
We played PUBG's PS4 version throughout launch week where none of the game's modes could be played in first-person due to a lack of players (according to the in-game notification), and played it this week to see how it's evolved after becoming the most downloaded PS4 game in December. Currently only solo play is available in first-person so players can only play with friends or matchmake with others in third-person. Most games we play in any mode cannot fill the full 100 player cap and load times are s
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
Previous partnerships have included items from and music by international DJ Alan Walker; a team-up with basketball stars Giannis Antetokounmpo, www.pubgmcentral.xyz Ben Simmons, Andre Drummond, Isaiah Thomas and Lonzo Ball; unique items inspired by Mission: Impossible - Fallout, Godzilla: King of the Monsters as well as a deep Resident Evil 2 crossover. We will be revealing a few more exciting collaborations before the end of the year, so please stay tu
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
While PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is far from the first Battle Royale game to exist, its early access release on PC during the first quarter of 2017 unquestionably kick-started a resurgence of the genre. Ever since then, myriad developers have been keen to introduce a bunch of different takes on this type of survival and last-man-standing gameplay. For example, Activision and Treyarch brought Blackout to Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 , Red Dead Online introduced its own unique Battle Royale game mode called "Make It Count", and of course, Epic Games found massive success in turning Fortnite 's Battle Royale into a free-to-play phenomenon. Now, with PUBG 's arrival on PlayStation 4 having occurred nearly two years after its introduction to the masses, it begs the question of whether or not the game is actually a necessity for Battle Royale fans on PS4, or a perfunctory shooter that made its leap onto the Sony console far too l
PUBG has brought a whole new meaning to the word sterile. Even today the game looks like an earlier edition of Call of Duty that was stripped down to it's barest of bones. The only personality it has that comes to mind is the iconic level three helmet and the frying pan, but there's not much more than t
PUBG Mobile is a game of advanced hide and seek. Regardless if said player has no weapons or all the best loot in the game, it's important to know when to run and when to fight. For example, if the player is close enough to another player, try and take the shot if the weapon the players have can connect from that range and ONLY if they can connect from that range. Taking the shot and not having the built connect not only will waste ammunition, but it will also reveal the player's location, prepping them for a fight they weren't ready to win. Shotguns have poor range but can dish out high amounts of damage in a closer range. Assault rifles are better for medium-range combat and do decent damage and sniper rifles can do high damage from far ranges, but it's harder to land this hit.
