Not long after its main competitor Fortnite came to iOS devices, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds released a mobile version as well. Available to both iOS and Android users and requiring no special invite codes at launch, PUBG Mobile seems to have taken off as one of the more popular battle royale mobile games on the market, and for good rea

Imagine yourself on the streets Los Leones, the largest city within the desert map of Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds . You’re rifling through the weathered, abandoned buildings, collecting precious loot in hopes of coming across the ever-elusive level three-helmet or 8x scope – when all of a sudden, explosions begin randomly crashing down around you. Before you can do anything, a final blow takes you out, promptly ending your quest for a chicken dinner. It’s then that you realize: you were in the red z

At any rate, for those hoping that the red zone is going away any time soon, you may just want to start heeding the on-screen warnings a little better…or, maybe, just avoid being anywhere near the red zone altoget

Today's 2018 roadmap for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is hopefully everything players have been hoping to hear for some time. Certain topics commonly discussed by the community may have been absent from the roadmap, like balance and crates, but those were likely beyond the scope of the roadmap. Also at issue is the lack of a more specific release schedule, perhaps betraying PUBG Corp.'s lack of dedication to these pl

As people have been quick to note, the Ghillie suit is available to all PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds players for free. Many players also rush to find it in pockets of loot across the map because of its effectiveness and so the suggestion that the Ghillie suit is a useful cosmetic is not necessarily news. But this section of the lawsuit does raise a larger question about how cosmetic loot can affect gameplay even if it doesn't provide any discernible buffs to attributes and st

Just several days ago, the Xbox One version of PUBG Corp. and Bluehole Studio's battle royale title PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds managed to surpass 5 million players on the Microsoft platform, proving that the game's popularity continues to grow on the console. Now, in order to keep PUBG running smoothly on the system, the development team behind the title has released a new patch for the Xbox One that brings about inventory layout changes, frame-rate optimization, and m

However, as PUBG Maps Corp's comments about the Ghillie suit note, certain cosmetics can be used to benefit players, by camouflaging them in certain areas of a map . PUBG Corp. may have only identified the Ghillie suit as a beneficial piece of loot, but what of the other cosmetic content that players can collect in paid-for cra

The **Counter-Strike: Global Offensive ** community has been rocked after a series of controversial events, including backlash to item trading changes and the use of a racial slur by a major commentator. The game is one of Valve's most popular titles, consistently high in the Steam concurrent user charts even though recent multiplayer shooter distractions have been found in the form of games such as PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and Fortni

This, however, has led to some major complaints from some members of the CS:GO community. As a matter of fact, a change.org petition has even started up, and in a very short amount of time has managed to accumulate 120,000 signatures from Counter-Strike players who want to see Valve revert back to the old way that trading worked in the shooter. " This update not only kills trading in a sense, but also will kill our beloved CS:GO if it remains effective, " states the petit

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

PUBG Mobile is far from perfect, but it definitely has some good ideas. Whether or not any of these well-received features and improvements in PUBG Mobile are adopted by the PC or Xbox One versions of the game remains to be seen, but with PUBG being an continuously evolving experience , it's certainly possi

Greene continued to state that although the red zone serves a purpose, the decision on whether or not to remove it from the game – as with all other in-game features – will ultimately come down to the collaborative efforts between the community and the development t

Unfortunately for Valve, this wasn't the only problem with CS:GO that reared its head recently. Counter-Strike eSports commentator Matthew 'Sadokist' Trivett used a racial slur during a livestream of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , before going on to suggest that CS:GO community member Don Haci commit suicide. Although Trivett eventually apologised for his actions via a Facebook post, he has nonetheless been suspended from Twitch and it remains to be seen if there will be further ramificati
