The largest city in the region, Los Leones features ample shopping, a skyline filled with new construction, and a glorious, golden-hued City Center. Players should secure high vantage points by exploring the numerous construction sites, and loot for gear in the cavernous, abandoned commercial buildi
The cosmetics in PUBG are some of the hottest garbage this side of the Mississippi. "Oh wow, I unlocked brown boots instead of black ones!" or "No way! Blue pants instead of grey ones!" The best items you can receive or goggles, or a yellow tracksuit, that's really it though. Fortnite has Thanos, unicorns, scarecrows, ninjas, football players -- truthfully some it's kind of cringey -- but a lot of it, is still much better than PUBG's items. We don't even know how PUBG has the gall to charge the prices they do for their whack item sets, they're the big losers for this
Crunch has been a contentious topic in gaming as more light is shed on unhealthy working conditions within the industry, and this casual reveal once again sparked discussion, with some wondering whether realistic horse testicles were really worth pushing developers far beyond safe boundaries from both a physical and mental health perspect
However, when it came to existing properties and the monolith that is Steam, Valve had a bit of a more difficult year. Curation on Steam had become an elephant in the room, and Valve's decision to wash its hands of any regulation didn't go over well, particularly when this was followed up by the news that the company would then indefinitely delay all adult-themed video games on the platf
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
Third-person is the standard version of both games, but PUBG Updates takes the gold here with their first-person mode, that quite honestly might be the best way to play. You see, with first-person there just isn't any cheese, you can't see corners that you wouldn't normally see or have blind corner batt
If you wish to try the R45 before PUBG's official launch, you can do so on the game's Test Server, which helps the developers stress test and fine-tune new features ahead of their release. When the next major Test Server update launches, sometime after December 7th, the new desert map and the R45 will be included, along with vaulting, other tweaks, and new vehicles. For further info and details, stay tuned to PUBG's official Twitter acco
It's not as big an issue that PUBG is currently lacking optimization, since it is in Early Access, but it's definitely something Bluehole Studios needs to tackle before releasing the finished game. Right now, even powerful gaming computers can struggle to offer consistently smooth gameplay. Frame rates dip frequently, and lowering settings in the graphics menu doesn't necessarily improve the frame rates by m
The method that Blizzard used to announce Diablo Immortal was certainly a big part of the problem. Blizzard waited until BlizzCon, a convention for the most dedicated of its fans, to unveil the title, while giving no mention of Diablo 4 in spite of conversations being held about the possibility of revealing the game. The offhand treatment of an angry player base intensified matters too, leaving lots of Diablo fans furious with Activision Blizz
Players and the map don't always interact in the most realistic or predictable way. Some rocky places in the PUBG map can quickly get a player stuck, unable to escape and forced to wait for an enemy or the blue circle to come around and finish them
While we take great joy in comparing these two battle royale titans, Fortnite really should be in a different league of it's own. PUBG is a traditional battle royale game, but Fortnite is not only battle royale, but Minecraft too. In the game you have to gather supplies and build to survive -- it's honestly quite bizarre when you really exam it. In the middle of a heated battle you could be mining for stone and build a four-story house. And don't think you'll get very far without utilizing these mechanics, as some of the best players have gotten that way by becoming master build
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
