If it wasn’t for Fortnite coming in and stealing the spotlight from PUBG , we’d be stuck with a poorly optimized, gambling-focused battle royale game. Thankfully, Fortnite is here, forcing PUBG Corp and publisher/original developer Bluehole to take some action (and ideas). Over the last two months PUBG has added weekly events which players have fallen in love with, so much so there’s a lot of demand to see some of these test modes become permanent. These events include shotgun-only modes to large team deathmatches and there’s more on the

A lot of the other tweaks that come in Patch 11 for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on Xbox One are intended to make the game play more efficiently, such as the improvements to the responsiveness of weapon slots and attachments. For instance, players are now able to quickly scroll through it using the LT/RT buttons. The rest of the changes are primarily focused on performance and optimization refinements, including updates to some textures. Interested parties can find the notes for Patch 11 in full at the end of the arti

Given the early access nature of the game at launch, the long period of slow updates as the primary focus shifted to gambling for loot boxes to sell on Steam for real money, it’s seemed for a few months now that PUBG collectibles Corp was playing the short-term game. The rushed nature of the mobile and Xbox One versions of the games signify the company’s obvious intention of letting the game spread as fast as possible before something else takes over, and Fortnite already did. And now they have an incomplete game with pissed off players who are moving over in dro

In a very long post which didn’t reveal much in terms of specifics, Greene unveiled the “PUBG 2018 Roadmap” which included hints of new modes, new vehicles, new weapons, and even emotes – something popular in Fortnite and other live-service games like Desti

As the company behind WeChat, Tencent bought the mobile rights to PUBG last year and had been rolling it out in China. However, the latest release marks the game’s iPhone release outside of China and the Android release outside of a tested version that recently launched in Can

“It is an overwhelming voice already! And people say there’s no reason to it but it provides audio cover, it really looks cool when you’re fighting in it. And really, you shouldn’t be dying to the red zone. If you’re dying to the red zone then, I’m sorry but you’re not a very good player. It’s like, you know there’s a hundred meter safe zone around the edge of it, if you’re in a building there’s a very little chance of you getting hit, it’s there for a specific reason, it looks really cool and it provides tension. If you’re trapped in a fight in the red zone, it’s exciting! People say that it has no reason, but it does. It’s there for a very specific reason which is providing audio cover and even when it’s a little bit in the distance it provides enough cover to run a little bit, so, there are reasons. But, that said, if there is an outpouring of hate towards it, we may consider

Since then however, a team of its devs went to Thailand for some inspiration and are taking player feedback, their own ideas, and things they see into consideration for evolving this new map. That’s the main benefit of getting Savage playable super early before it’s really built

It will be interesting to see how PUBG will develop in response to the Savage map. _PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds _ gameplay has always been a mixture of patience with bursts of frenzied combat, so a map that forces players into tighter areas and forces more combat could mark a gameplay shift in future upda

“You’ve heard us talk about open development a few times, but what does that really mean? For Codename: Savage it means we’re going to be building the map as you guys play it. We have months of work left to do; beyond refining the experience and making changes that impact balance, we also plan to add new vehicles, new weapons, and most exciting in our eyes are the new areas that we think will set this map apart from our first t

Savage is going to get an underground cave system, something out of a NatGeo feature or Godzilla movie, and the devs are building it based on the real-world location of Phraya Nakhon Cave which means one of the rooftop cave entrances will be so big that players can parachute straight into it from the beginning of a ma

Dubbed “Patch 11”, the latest update for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on Xbox One’s most noticable change comes in the form of a refinement to the inventory UI that adds new focal points so that players can navigate menus much more quickly and change their loadouts more efficiently. What’s more is that Patch 11 updates the button guide and tooltips in order to better direct players in PU

That’s not the only good news because according to a tweet by Skin-Tracker, data mining for the new update reveals that new weapon attachments are incoming. New 3x and 6x scopes will be coming, in addition to a Duckbill attachment for shotguns which will increase their horizontal spread. That said, since the developers themselves haven’t confirmed these new additions, this information should be taken with a pinch of salt for
