PlayerUnknown s Battlegrounds PS4 Review
Fortnite and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, better known as PUBG, are the two biggest battle royales to date. As of March 2019, the most recent data, Fortnite has a registered player count of 250 million users, blowing PUBG Patch Notes on PC's player count of 500,000 users out of the wa
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
When PUBG was breaking records left and right and boasting player counts that gave Valve’s Dota 2 a run for its money, Bluehole seemed content to rest on their laurels and sporadically introduce updates while refusing to respond to player criticisms. The battle royale boom of early-to-mid 2018 saw them making money hand-over-fist, and a major reason for that was due to their popularity in the Chinese gaming space. As a result, the developer wasn’t all that keen on doing anything to harm an extremely profitable economy despite the fact that it came at the behest of Western play
We didn't even get this as much as we wanted in the last entry, but Fortnite is fast. Good luck trying to get your dad into the game because if you're not on your P's and Q's you're going to get pwned by some 8-year-old wearing a snap-back sideways within minutes of dropping off the battle bus. PUBG however, is more in line with the game play of a classic shooter. It's slow, almost empty at times and getting kills in it usually requires a much more patient, methodical approach. Sure the best players can run-n-gun like it's nobodies business, but if you play the game slow you have a good chance of making it
The vehicles in PUBG are as essential to the game as players running through the fields swinging frying pans and getting sniped by Shroud. Let's see what we have here -- Minivans full of squads slamming into buildings and going up in flames, motorcyclists flipping through the skies only to get their best friend killed as they run into a tree -- ah, the list goes on. It's all so much good fun, and while Fortnite does have some great vehicles as of today, they're mostly meant for playing around with. They just aren't the craziness that can be found with the vehicles in P
Mini 14: The Mini 14 is widely considered one of the best sniper rifles in the game. This is mainly because it has a rather high rate-of-fire which makes it both an effective sniper rifle (with a good scope) and a close-range assault rifle. It doesn't give the best damage, but well-placed shots can take out opponents fairly eas
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds offers the chance to explore and scrap through the three gigantic maps of Miramar, Erangel, and Sanhok–with Vikendi having just recently entered the Public Test Server to boot. One's tasked with scrounging for consumables, armor, and weapons to survive matches populated with up to 100 players, as a storm circle slowly encroaches and forces those still alive to duke it out in tense, ever-closer firefights. This can be done as a Solo endeavor, or in Duos and 4-person Squads, but the goal essentially remains the same no matter the size of the team, and that is to be the only survivor(s) at the end of the ma
Fortnite on the other hand reeks of personality, so much so that they were even able to thread a story through all of it's themes. Despite not having reality breaking graphics, it's still just such a fun game to look at and play, and that's a testament to the st
The players can jump out of the plane anytime at the beginning of every game. However, this can also be used to the advantage, especially if playing Solo . Most of the players jump together and pick a specific location. On the contrary, if a site is not decided beforehand, players can wait and see how people are jumping
PUBG may be having a rough time keeping up with its leading competitors, but it still sticks out as one of the first games to successfully stand alone on the merit of its battle royale format. A great deal of the genre's popularity and success can be traced back to
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds may be one of the most dominant multiplayer releases of the past few years, but its shortcomings have come to eclipse the title’s once-sterling reputation. While the community circa March 2017 was optimistic and largely agreed that the game had quite a lot of potential, things seem on the verge of unraveling just two years later. When news came in late September last year that developer Bluehole would be axing the option to switch regions and gating certain players’ access to servers depending on ping, PUBG fans rejoiced. However, nearly six months have gone by since these features were implemented in Update 22, and the game’s multiplayer functionalities are still in a state of ch
