Players will have a couple of new ways to get around in **PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ** after Patch 30, which introduces parkour and a new vehicle, the BRDM-2, to the game. As with most patches, it also comes with a suite of bug fixes and other twe
The game is certainly deserving, having left the gaming universe in awe following its release. Unfortunately, Fortnite took over and even that is now being overshadowed by Respawn and EA’s launching of Apex Legends , a BR based on the Titanfall series that amazingly garnered 10 million users in its first three da
The battle royale title, which actually gave the genre its jump start that lead to massive cultural phenomena like Fortnite and Apex Legends come to the fore, was voted in as 2018’s best Steam game by fans, who were prompted to name their favorites across eight awa
Unfortunately, things don’t seem to be getting any better in the land of PUBG , as Game Revolution reports the Joker skin will reportedly run players $20 while Harley Quinn is $25. That isn’t even for dead-on representations of those two characters as they appear in Suicide Squad , either – the skins are costume sets, so they merely alter the player’s model to look mostly like the character they’ve chosen. Needless to say, fans are disappointed by the high cost of the costume packs, which can be bought individually for equally unsettling prices. Fans who just want to purchase Joker’s makeup, for instance, will still need to shell out $5, while Harley Quinn’s bat is
In all of that time, I’ve never seen an update as influential to PUBG as the addition of Canted Sights. In case you have no idea what that means or you’re just looking to learn how to use them, here you
PUBG is getting up there in age for a battle royale title , especially given the speed with which the market for these games fluctuates. Revisiting some old magic isn’t a bad idea, but it does seem to ignore the much deeper problem of needing a fundamental design change to keep up with the games that PUBG inspired. Those titles have the benefit of fixing what PUBG did sub-optimally and innovating, and with so many iterations of that, now it’s **PUBG ** ‘s turn to see if it can turn back the clock and refresh the game enough to become a stalwart of battle royale streaming once m
Patch 25 is currently available on the PUBG story guide|https://pubgfrontierzone.com/ Test Server. It won’t be too long before you can experience the Canted Sight ( and the new Snow Bike ) in the live version of the game. Until then, consider sharing this article with your squad so they know what to do when it does officially rele
On top of the new scenery, terrain, and building styles, Erangel has been vitally reworked on the inside, too, a much more appealing prospect for veteran PUBG players. The developer has made fully-researched changes to loot, from drop rates to design, to make sure the map plays out in a more modern way. PUBG Corp is also tinkering with how the Blue Zone constricts players in an effort to better reflect what the company has described as ” emerging playstyles and tactics ,” though essentially that just refers to the game’s competitive meta. The changes will be made on a test server first, and PUBG streamers will predominately occupy those games, both to advertise the changes and get valuable feedback. The update to Erangel proper will arrive on both consoles and PC later this sum
Patch 30 adds a good amount of additional updates, most notably the Deagle (a version of the powerful Desert Eagle handgun found in many games) and a set of pre-written text messages called Radio Messages. Players can select these from a radial menu to quickly communicate with teammates when they can’t use voice c
PUBG has already struggled with monetization problems, frequently being accused of exploitative payment models that offer too little from a content-to-cost ratio. Most recently, PUBG came under fire for its event pass system , which required an inordinate amount of time from players to complete just to unlock the items they had paid for – the pass also cost $9.99 USD and was a time sensitive item. That, coupled with locked loot boxes on an already heavily criticized progression system, has seen the reputation of PUBG ‘s predatory microtransactions become even worse in recent mon
Overall, Patch 30 adds plenty of content to keep players interested. While it’s likely nothing that would sway new players to finally try the game out, it may be enough to bring back lapsed players who previously found the game’s relative lack of mobility annoying. It’s also interesting to see PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds _ presumably taking cues from newer Battle Royales , with the addition of Radio Messages that seem clearly inspired by _Apex Legends ’ widely praised pinging sys
PUBG has also been openly criticized about the decisions being made behind the scenes of the game, especially those regarding skins and other cosmetic items usually purchased through microtransactions. The infamous Suicide Squad collaboration from last year raised the ire of many a player for the frankly ridiculous cost of some simple cosmetic costumes, and the game’s marketplace on Steam has gone through several iterations of comedic inflation on sought-after items. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, of course, but PUBG also has been losing ground when it comes to pure play, with many believing Fortnite to be a more enjoyable experience while Apex Legends has more refined and skill-intensive mechanics. Where once there was a clear niche PUBG occupied, now the game’s identity has begun to wa
