PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Review -- Survival of the Fittest

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 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

Since it debuted on Early Access last March and finally launched last month, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has shown little signs of slowing down with regular new updates and content being added, with PC players getting a new update on the hori

In the hours that I've played PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , most of those fears have gone away from the start. That isn't to say Battlegrounds goes completely against the grain when it comes to most Early Access survival sims - there are bugs a-plenty and what's actually available in the game for players is a bit sparse at the moment (though frequent updates are regulating that). However, I find what PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds does best so far is capture what I like the most about survival games - that intoxicating stress of fighting for your life - while stripping away almost all of the mechanics that I often clash with in the ge

A great addition to GTA 5 was first person mode, turning the more action-oriented segments of the game into a first-person shooter. Personally, I can find third-person or over the shoulder gameplay a little harder to navigate when caught in a firefi

Adjusted squad team colors to make them more consistent between different colorblind options

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

Fans will remember The Stranger as the supernatural man from the side quest "I Know You." I say supernatural because he knows everything about you and picks out your character’s grave spot, albeit ambiguously. Also, he is totally immune to bull

According to the post from PUBG Corps, the new update will be applied today to the game's test server, and will move over to the live servers at a later time once the patch is stabilized and and tested Among Us Mobile event the playerb

I probably don’t need to tell you that the long-awaited release of Red Dead Redemption 2 is right around the corner. With the first game being a runaway hit (technically the second game, a lot of people forget there was a game called Red Dead Revolver first) it makes sense that people are abuzz with excitement to get back in the saddle. One of the problems with people being abuzz is that they start to want to get their hands on something way before the actual release date, so outside of beta play, all they have is talking about the subject. And with news coming out more every day from Rockstar about all the crazy things you will get up to out in the old west, Rockstar has also been somewhat tight-lipped about any significant details, which is something we should be used to from them by

Since its debut on Steam Early Access in March of this year, PUBG has eclipsed over 30 million players in a way that can only be described as a "phenomenon." However, given that the game has only just "released" now nine months after it launched through in Early Access, PUBG still very much feels like a game that's a work-in-progress, and that's likely going to be the case with it for months and, potentially, ye

Nuevo Paraiso, the explorable Mexican territory from the previous game, is a fan favorite. It’s slightly more violent, the characters are more morally ambiguous, and the gambling seemed to be more

We already know that dual wielding weapons is something Rocksteady perfected in previous titles, it’s one of the main reasons the Max Payne franchise was so enduring. So of course, fans were over the moon when they found out this mechanic was back for this seq

Sure, I've had plenty of my share of games that ended hilariously early, whether they were from my own poor choices or just getting dealt a bad hand as far as my starting location and what weapons were available to me. But more often than not, I've had just as many (or more) matches where I just happened to land in a zone of the map with a wealth of ammo and weapons to use to my benefit, or found myself in a path where I was able to keep up with the shrinking blue circle at a quicker pace than my enem

Unless you're a player like me that's dumped dozen of hours into the game, PUBG 's lack of clear explanation as to the mechanics and gameplay secrets might have newcomers going through a few painful first few hours trying to get the hang of it all. And as much as the game's few maps offer tons of strategy and replayability, some players might find themselves bored at going back to the same map over and over, unlike multiplayer games with a greater map vari
