How Bluehole Can Save PlayerUnknown s Battlegrounds

PUBG Mobile features a lot of smart gameplay tweaks compared to its counterparts that help it feel very natural on mobile devices. But while these changes seem to have been made with the mobile version in mind, they could also be used to improve the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds experience on PC and Xbox One as w


The use of item trading in CS:GO has always been something of a shady ground for Valve, and sometimes the grey areas of how it functions have been manipulated and taken advantage of by prominent CS:GO players and YouTubers. As such, it was only a matter of time before Valve acted on the matter, particularly given CS:GO 's place in the larger discussion around how deep loot box problems go in the industry, but the company may have wanted to act a little quicker, and perhaps in a way that didn't cause such a backlash from play


However, Dr DisRespect took a leave from Twitch in December. Beahm decided to take a hiatus from the platform after confessing to infidelity, stating that he needed to take time away from streaming to focus on his family. This January, he announced his return with a newly-branded 'Champions Club' and a streaming date set for February 5, 2

With the overwhelming nature by which PUBG captured the gaming industry’s attention, it was inevitable that several other developers would hop on the train and integrate battle-royale style modes into their own ongoing franchises. Easily the most popular of these recent spin-offs has been Fortnite: Battle Royale, a free-to-play version with a cartoon aesthetic and over forty million players since its launch last summer. As the current competitor with the biggest opportunity to take PUBG down a notch, Bluehole should embrace this healthy competition and look into what has kept Fortnite within reach of its own arena survival title. While we did address a few elements that the developer could look into in an article of ours from last year, Fortnite has more recently begun to introduce limited-time modes that spice up the formula, such as 50v50 team deathmatches . There’s no need for PUBG to directly steal any of Fortnite’s modes, but Epic Games’ willingness to creatively expand upon the core mechanics with interesting new twists is a potential-heavy notion that the team at PUBG Corp could stand to benefit from if they’re looking to entice players back to their smash hit.

At this point, very few people within the various communities of gaming need an explainer regarding the multiplayer phenomenon that is PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. Over the past eleven months, the survival title has broken numerous player and sales records , while consistently shocking and entertaining the internet with its onslaught of clips and GIFs that highlight the insanity of the hundred-player arena game. As developer Bluehole finally pushed PUBG Cheats out of early access at the end of last year, the most-played title for months on Steam has finally started to show some cracks in its armor, with Steam Charts reporting a loss of average players of over one hundred thousand over the past thirty days, marking the first decline in the title’s history. As alarming as that may seem, there’s no reason for panic quite yet; PUBG’s impressive numbers inevitably had to dip after such a lengthy run and the title is still the number one played game on Steam by over a million players. There is, however, reason to be concerned if that decay continues over the weeks and months to come, but there are some steps Bluehole and PUBG Corporation can take to avoid any major drops beyond the inevitable.


Dr DisRespect finally made his return to Twitch.tv today, and in the process managed to take the platform down. The streamer, whose real name is Guy Beahm, is one of the most popular around, and his caustic personality has gelled well with Twitch users. He's the (self-proclaimed) "face of Twitch" after all! The former video game developer has managed to pull in huge numbers with his PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds streams, leading to the doctor becoming one of the biggest Twitch celebrities and winner of two awards for it last y


Besides automatically looting and equipping upgrades, PUBG Mobile improves the looting process in another key way. Whenever a player is killed in PUBG , their body disappears and is replaced by a brown box that holds all their gear. Thanks to the game's color scheme, it can sometimes be very difficult to find these boxes, but PUBG Mobile makes it easier by marking them with glowing green lig


Today, PUBG Corp posted another update in the news section of the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Steam page. Titled "Inspirations of Codename: Savage - Volume II," the post describes the developer's plans for the game's Savage map going forward. They lead off the post by stating their plans to regularly update the map going forward; stating that "we have months of work left to do." Most importantly, this update both describes and shows what will become the Savage map's defining feature: an underground cave sys
