Either way, players can't interact with the chests (yet), meaning the latest addition is nothing more than a golden easter egg right now. It is likely that the chests will eventually open to reveal something big, but on the other hand, Bluehole could simply be trolling gamers as a nod to Fortnite 's treasure chests. It may be a way to bury the hatchet between the two studios, but it would undoubtedly leave players miffed that the chests turn out to be a Pulp Fiction -style McGuf
UPDATE: It looks like there's already enough XP in the free missions to get to level 20, but our lead gameplay designer says he wants to make some changes next week to give players a little more wiggle room (to make it slightly easier to get to level 20). Updates will come next week. In the meantime, just do those missio
Taking all of this into account, it will be interesting to see if Bluehole Studio will be able to successfully implement a permanent Event Pass for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds thanks to the data and feedback it received during its initial limited-time launch. If it does get incorporated correctly down the line, the feature could give PUBG a better shot at expanding its current 400 million-plus player ba
The post reminds PUBG players that this is the first time a balance patch like this has been introduced and that it will be trialed on the test servers before going live. Weapon attachments will undergo similar changes, although the post doesn't reveal exactly how the armory will be affected. Elsewhere, the lauded level three helmets are being confined solely to supply drops. Effectively an extra life to players, the level three helmet was crucial in protecting your head from those sniper sh
PUBG is a flurry of activity at the moment with the various updates and weapon balances , however, is it a case of too little too late? Fortnite has been a literal powerhouse of late, meaning that even some of the most hardened PUBG players have jumped ship for the more colorful delights of Fornite . And there's only more competition on the way with E3 2018 around the corner sure to debut multiple new battle royale experiences. Whether or not PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds can be the goose that laid the golden crate remains to be seen, but one's thing for sure, there's gold in them thar hi
All told, that's 7600 XP in total across 30 days, exactly enough for 19 level-ups -- from 1 to 20, each costing 400 XP. The funny thing is, it looks like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds isn't running the Sanhok Event Pass for 30 days. It's running it for 29. The countdown launched citing 24 hours and 28 days remaining, which suggests that it may entirely impossible to reach level
Rigney went on to assure fans that the most recent map, the Sanhok jungle map, was made with even less pre-made assets, and that the upcoming winter map , will have an even higher ratio of original cont
PUBG Corp also recently provided some insight about its plans for the game's Savage map, saying "we have months of work left to do," but describing the map's defining feature: an underground cave system. Unfortunately, players will have to wait a little bit longer to see this map in action, as it won't be hitting the game in this upd
For those who have been out of the loop with the latest on PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , the Event Pass was originally meant to be a way for players to track progress made in-game – in a similar vein to Fortnite 's Battle Pass – and earn exclusive loot outside of the standard crate system. While it's unfortunate that the feature is not working the way Bluehole Studio intended, at least the developer is offering additional XP for players' troubles. Those interested can find the company's details for PUBG Skins 's bonus XP event be
"Pretty sure some of the later missions give more XP. Gonna go check and update this comment once I’m sure (will probably take a while because it's 4am in Korea). If you couldn’t actually get to level 20 then that’d be dumb and we’d change
Now that the Sanhok Event Pass is available in-game, players are able to measure exactly how much they need to accomplish in order to progress in the Pass. All challenges, as well as other sources of experience, are available to see and draw conclusions from. And the results are quite disappointing, especially for those who don't want to spend the $9.99 Event Pass price up fr
Here's how the math works out. For non-paying players, there are only so many sources of experience every day. They break down into daily experience earned just by playing, daily experience earned through completing challenges, weekly experience earned through challenges, and "Normal" challenges that persist for the entire ev
Sanhok started out life as a shrunken 4x4 map codenamed "Savage." Scaling back from the usual 8x8 size of original map Erangel and the desert-based Miramar, players have been enjoying the confined spaces and challenge of a smaller and more fast-paced locale. Although Sanhok isn't live yet in the main game, PUBG has been slowly opening up more of its secrets with each PC test period. As well as adding more detail and buildings with each update, fans have noticed more important changes - just like the golden chests. Whatever these chests are will continue being a secret for now, but everyone is praying that it is something more interesting than just another loot box debacle . PUBG is one of the major games still doing random pay-for loot boxes and it's one of the reasons Fortnite is going to continue killing
