The developers have also added a Training Grounds mode to PUBG Mobile . The Training Grounds mode is only available for solo players, allowing them to practice with weapons and items on their own before jumping into a match with oth
According to our research, only a few specific types of weapons (ARs) are used in most situations. We believe the choice about which gun to use should be based on personal preference and its effectiveness in any given situation, rather than simply "which gun is strongest." Our goal is to make it so no one gun will feel objectively better than the oth
Dubbed a progression-based system with unlockables, a second Steam announcement revealed that PUBG 's event pass will also launch on June 22. There will be daily, weekly, and Sanhok-based missions to lure players to PUBG . While it sounds like a great idea, there are some major drawbacks. PUBG 's pass must be bought with real-world money ($9.99) and will only last for four weeks instead of the whole season. The event pass will have free and premium options, but those who choose the free options will only be able to temporarily unlock new it
EA opened its E3 2018 press conference with a bang, finally confirming that Battlefield V will have a battle royale mode . Details about the multiplayer game mode have yet to be fully revealed, but it was enough to get fans excited. It was also enough for one very famous battle royale developer to take not
After months of waiting, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is finally releasing the full version of its Sanhok map on June 22. Coming exclusively to the PC version of the game, PUBG 's third map will be 1/4 the size of the other two, which makes it conveniently close to the dimensions of Fortnite . As well as a new locale to explore, players are also being lumbered with more controversial ways for Pubgstation.com PUBG Corp. to make money thanks to a Fortnite -inspired event p
In addition to some new modes, Update 0.4.0 brings a variety of gameplay adjustments to PUBG Mobile , including combat optimization, vehicle improvements, voice chat optimization, and UI improvements. There have also been changes to the in-game s
There are a few key factors that have contributed to the loss of all those players. A big one is that PUBG 's key competitor, Fortnite , is a free-to-play game. Therefore, if more casual gamers are trying to get into the Battle Royale scene with friends, it's a much easier to start playing Fortnite than it is to play PUBG , and it helps that Fortnite is practically on every major platform out there. Players have also lost trust in Bluehole over loot box concerns, as they sell keys to unlock the loot boxes for real money (which can then be sold on the Steam market afterwards). Add to the fact that quality improvements have been slow in development, whereas Fortnite gets special events and sizable overhauls practically every w
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
Although PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is still trailing Fortnite in terms of players, Brendan 'PlayerUnknown' Greene is still pushing forward with Sanhok and hopes to keep cashing in on the seemingly never-ending battle royale hype. Players are now subject to gambling-style loot boxes, real-money purchases for things like parachutes or on the Xbox One version, certain cosmetics, real-money purchases for season pass, all on top of the retail price for the game which still doesn't run too smoothly. That su
With Sanhok's smaller scale, matches are expected to be quicker and a dynamic weather system promises to cause trouble as PUBG whittles its 100 players down to one lucky winner. Sanhok has already been live on the test servers through four testing periods, but the time has come for its general release as developers promise yet more changes to what the test gamers have already s
One of the new features hitting the mobile version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is Arcade, which is a 28-player mode that can be played solo or with friends. Each match randomly selects one of six possible variations, adding a bit of a twist on the gameplay. For example, one variation limits the weapon selection to a specific type, while another grants players access to all weapons and items. The six variations are Shotguns, Sniper Rifles, All Weapons, Melee, Pistols, and Item Hea
At this point, it's too soon to say whether the game will completely eclipse PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds . After all, Battlefield V has a multiplayer mode and a single-player mode, which are things that may take away the focus from its battle royale mode. It also means that the development team will be unable to completely focus on the battle royale game mode, something that may work in the PUBG team's fa
