According to Kotaku , Grzesiek has been given a month long ban due to a clip where he and fellow streamer Wadu were joined by a hacker. In the circulating video, the hacker sends cars flying around them, creating barriers, later using one of the cars to carry the duo to the next playzone. Grzesiek scores a kill after being alerted to another player hiding in a nearby house. At one point, he states "I’m getting banned," not that the possibility appears to put a damper on his m
Of course, it isn't hard to see why PUBG Corp. and Bluehole are concerned about Fortnite . In the time since its battle-royal mode launched, the game has seen a surge in popularity among both content creators and casual games. The game has seen such success that not only has it beaten the record for most concurrent players previously held by PUBG but it is also now reported to make more money than it
It's also unclear how this ban will impact Shroud's upcoming appearance on PUBG's Squad Showdown on July 13, an event PUBG Corp is hosting with Twitch Prime in commemoration of Amazon's Prime Day (Twitch is owned by Amazon). Shroud was slated to play in the showdown alongside several other top Twitch streamers, but this temporary ban may put a halt to t
Update 12 also brings a range of new weapon attachments, each with its own pros and cons. Shotguns get the Duckbill, while assault rifles, SMGs, and DMRs get the Light Grip, Thumb Grip, and the Half G
E3 2018 is almost here, and leaks are starting to trickle out in advance of the massive gaming expo. The rumor flames have now been stoked by an anonymous contributor on 4chan, and they’ve revealed what’s purportedly a photo of the internally distributed PlayStation E3 schedule, which lists a series of the highly-anticipated trailers and reveals that will be emerging from E3 2
While recent E3 2018 leaks have proven to be real, it's always worth taking rumored information with a grain of salt. Regardless of whether or not this is Sony's schedule for their pre-E3 press conference, gamers won't have to wait long to find out as the PlayStation E3 briefing is in just one w
Aside from those games, one of the biggest surprises on the list is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - one of the most popular Battle Royale games on PC, which released on Xbox One last fall and has amassed quite the player count on the console. Unfortunately, PUBG 's player count on PC has been dwindling, and with H1Z1 now out on PS4 in open beta , this would be the perfect opportunity for Bluehole to expand to the PS4 and establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with on consoles, especially with Fortnite continuing to dominate in the Battle Royale sp
Some posts on Reddit agree with him in saying PUBG updates had it coming. Others say the real problem is that Grzesiek’s punishment isn’t really punishment at all. After watching its player count plummet early this year and continue to dwindle, PUBG wouldn’t want to risk losing one of its star players. While PUBG faces backlash for the discrepancy between how it doles out punishments, Grzesiek doesn’t appear to be affected by the temporary ban. He has begun training for Rainbow Six Siege , a game whose popularity has grown in recent months while PUBG’s continues to shrink. Since he hasn’t met a shooter he can’t master, Grzesiek can switch his sights to another game, secure in the knowledge that he’ll continue creating great footage for his f
The Los Angeles expo has reined supreme as one of the year’s largest, priciest, and most-watched events for its major gaming industry reveals and teases. Originally, E3 was understood primarily as an insider event for press and publishers in the gaming industry but, as of recently, the convention has opened its doors to the public, with special "Gamer Passes" made available to unaffiliated consumers excited for the demo stations, booths, special events, and more. But before all that happens, the industry's biggest publishers host press conferences and showcases in advance of E3 to unveil their upcoming lineup. Sony's PlayStation press conference is only June 11, but it seems their entire schedule has been leaked alre
Twitch streamer Michael "Shroud" Grzesiek has been temporarily banned after playing **PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ** with a hacker. The original stream is no longer available, but clips captured by fans continue to spread across social media. The video has reignited the ongoing debate among players about PUBG’s hacker problem. The community finds itself split on whether clips of top players working with hackers calls attention to flaws within the game or if the players are using their popularity to get away with cheat
PUBG 's Event Pass is, it seems, exactly the same as a standard Battle Pass. All PUBG players can complete daily, weekly, and event-exclusive challenges to level up their Event Pass. After earning certain levels, free DLC like clothing and weapon skins will unlock and a premium version of the Event Pass will unlock more faster. Players will have around four weeks to complete each Event Pass and can upgrade from the free version to the premium version at any time to unlock any DLC associated with their earned lev
