Although the so-called original battle royale game has managed to weather this particular storm (so far, at least) will it be able to outlast another attack from another major player? Only time will tell, but the tweet from PlayerUnknown makes it very clear: https://Pubgstation.com the PUBG development team will be watching the developments surrounding Battlefield V very, very clos

According to a recent post on PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' official Steam page, Bluehole Studio made sure to acknowledge its failings during the Event Pass' availability by referring to all of the problems it encountered, and promised that “these issues will all be taken into consideration during future content planning.” The developer went on to thank players for their patience while working out the issues with the new system, and went on to announce the bonus XP event, saying, “But thanking you for your feedback and promising to improve in the future doesn’t help you finish your current pass, so we’ve decided to run an event to help players scrape out a few more levels before the Event Pass ends on 7/

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

Not long after the Battlefield V battle royale announcement was made, Brendan “PlayerUnknown” Greene of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds fame, took to Twitter to respond. In all caps lock, the famed game developer sent the Battlefield Twitter account a public message, welcoming the “old friend” to the battle royale c

(Image: https://www.istockphoto.com/photos/class=)They say that all's fair in love and war, so PUBG is here to remind its players just that. According to PUBG Corp. on Steam , a new update is coming to PUBG that will tweak some of the game's biggest draws and weaknesses. According to the post, the main aim is to level the playing field when it comes to the battle royale's weap

The event pass was put in place after developers decided against DLC content, saying they didn't want to divide gamers into the “haves” and the “have-nots.” Ultimately, PUBG is still asking players to part with their hard-earned cash and has done nothing to address its sluggish and punishing progression system. Adding to this the unfair odds of the loot boxes (which they're also charging for to unlock) and PUBG will need to do more than introduce a new map to win over its crit

I am dreading my next game, because it’s PlayerUnknown’s Next Game . And there’s going to be eyes on it. No matter what I do, there’s going to be a lot of critics going, 'Well, it’s no PUBG.' And I’ve accepted that – I am not going to make a game that’s going to get like, three million concurrent users, and tens of millions of players every month. But I’m not aiming to make that. I want to make a game I want to play, and if other people want to play it, that’s fantastic – but ultimately, if they don’t, I’ll still have a game that I can play. So that’s my outlook: I’m probably going to get sh*t on, but that’s o

The Korea Times reported PUBG filed an injunction with the Seoul Central District Court against Epic Games Korea for alleged copyright infringement on Friday. Details are currently scarce on the PUBG - Fortnite lawsuit, but past statements from Bluehole allude to the alleged copyright violation. ” We have also noticed that Epic Games references PUBG in the promotion of Fortnite to their community and in communications with the press, “ wrote Chang Han Kim back in September of 2017. ” This was never discussed with us and we don't feel that it's righ

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 PUBG Corp. to make money thanks to a Fortnite -inspired event p

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

It's quite likely that these promotional tactics are one of the issues that Bluehole has against Fortnite as several other battle royale games in the vein of PlayerUnknown's Battleground have been released without any legal ramifications. Considering how ownership over a genre is such a murky idea, and the fact that PUBG , while innovating and popularizing the battle royale sub-genre, is not the first game with such a survival mode, it's likely that the lawsuit will be settled over the small details. Bluehole has also complained about user interface similarities and that their weapons were cop
