PlayerUnknown s Battlegrounds August Update Detailed; Includes First-Person Servers Xbox One Controller Support And More

Recently there was a treasure hunt of sorts inside of Grand Theft Auto: Online , the end result of which was getting a golden double revolver as well as some cash. Turns out there is also a way of having that prize carry over into RDR2 , which is a cool little bo


In a lot of ways, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds feels like what we often see from "rags to riches" stories in movies, TV, books, and countless other mediums. Coming from a Korean studio with a name that's both unique and perplexingly bizarre, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (or known collectively as PUBG ) has gone from being a small, unheard-of entity to the breakout game of 2


Outside of the game's more randomized elements, as a shooter PUBG 's combat feels breakneck and challenging. Coming from the lineage of military sims like Arma , death in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds comes quickly as it only takes a few shots to take down most players (or potentially only one with a well-aimed headshot). This quick time-to-kill though comes down on both sides, as PUBG Loot guide employs several elements to keep the combat and gunplay as unpredictable as the environments. That aspect of the combat comes through bullet drop and the varied amount of weapon attachments and upgrades that can be tailored to specific players' preferences, whether they opt for being more efficient at long range or close range, and m

Added a function where a player can select more detailed criteria for the "Cheating" category in the in-game report


Part of that comes from the twists and turns that Battlegrounds implements to keep the action focused and the dynamics of each match constantly evolving. Aside from other players, one of the biggest threats that players will have to face throughout the entire match is an electric forcefield that constricts the playable areas of the map gradually, which works to both prevent camping or cheesing the game mechanics, and to push players into tighter fields of play and encourage confrontation. That also goes for the game's occasional airstrikes (the "red zones" on the map) that drop lethal bombs on unsuspecting players, and passing planes that can also drop supply care-packages that contain some of the game's best weapons and gear for players that get lucky. Better yet, the care packages also offer a chance for crafty players to use them as bait and pick off those that aren't paying attention to their surroundi


Originating from Greene's work on developing mods such as DayZ: Battle Royale (originating from ARMA 2 and its subsequent DayZ ), Battlegrounds ultimately became a sort of mix of the attributes that Greene wanted to take from survival games - the emphasis on player choice and preservation - while refining some of its weaker points. Specifically, Greene's focus on making large maps that would be difficult to pin down exact strategies from game-to-game play a large part of what Battlegrounds has turned out to be, while item randomization ensures that no match plays out exactly the same as it did bef

But for as many flaws as PUBG has, both subtle and incredibly noticeable, it's also the game I've just wanted to keep coming back to month after month after month. By breaking down the core mechanics of survival games into matches that are both intense and easy to hop back into, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has provided a multiplayer experience that plays out drastically different each time, and yet is just as exhilarating each time that I p
