PUBG Will Adopt Some Fortnite Design Choices In 2018 To Keep Competitive

The developer goes on to note that in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , players must "visually detect" other players because of the lack of player indicators seen in other shooter games. PUBG Corp. is using this particular section of the lawsuit to assert that games like Rules of Survival have also ripped off the style of cosmetics offered by PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds . These cosmetic similarities, the developer appears to suggest, should be taken seriously because they actively impact the core, PUBG gameplay experience. It also argues that the visual design of these cosmetics is a "protectable" w


However, as PUBG 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


Since PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds does sell loot crates - with some players also willing to pay excessive amounts of money for in-game cosmetics - some will also wonder whether PUBG deserves to be included in the pay-to-win deb


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


This smaller map is apparently an effort by developers to make PUBG faster paced. The game's attempt at world domination stepped up a notch recently with the release of PUBG Mobile for iOS and Android. While the graphical quality and controls obviously took something of a hit, the game runs surprisingly well on mobile and drawn yet more players into PlayerUnknown's Battleground web. The game also proved to be a big hit on Xbox One despite numerous gameplay issues and player complai


That's not the only good news because according to a tweet by Skin-Tracker, data mining for the new update reveals that new weapon attachments are incoming. New 3x and 6x scopes will be coming, in addition to a Duckbill attachment for shotguns which will increase their horizontal spread. That said, since the developers themselves haven't confirmed these new additions, this information should be taken with a pinch of salt for


News comes from the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds development blog , where the studio was hoping to clear the air and create a prioritization list for the community. The most notable change in the works is a brand new island map that is set to be only 4x4km -- likely the biggest play towards the Fortnite audience. This new map will be available on PUBG 's experimental test server starting next mo


Last week, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds developer PUBG Corp. launched a potentially industry-shaking lawsuit against NetEase , the creator of several battle royale mobile clones. The company accused NetEase, the Chinese publisher behind battle royale games such as Rules of Survival and Knives Out , of violating copyright and trademarks it holds PlayerUnknown's Battlegroun


The latest and greatest gaming feud, Bluehole Studios' PUBG and Epic Games' Fortnite , is taking on a new level of competition. The PUBG development team laid out their plans for 2018 and it looks like they are trying to copy some of the more successful elements of what Fortnite brings to the increasingly-competitive battle roy


"Clothing does affect gameplay in terms of camouflage. Clothing can be used to assist the player to blend in with the environment, making the player less visually detectable. In particular, Battlegrounds includes a Ghillie suit, a full body suit covered with camouflaging material typically used by snipers. The Ghillie suit allows the player to become nearly visually invisible depending upon the terra


Today, PUBG Corp posted another update in the news section of the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Steam page. Titled "Inspirations of Codename: Savage - Volume II," the post describes the developer's plans for the game's Savage map going forward. They lead off the post by stating their plans to regularly update the map going forward; stating that "we have months of work left to do." Most importantly, this update both describes and shows what will become the Savage map's defining feature: an underground cave sys


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds publisher Bluehole Studio's announced recently (via VG247 ) the release of new, 4x4 map for the game dubbed "Savage". This small new map is being made available early for testing purposes and will be changed as player feedback rolls in. The new map won't be available via the server either; instead, Pubg Beginner Guide will distribute keys to a limited number of play
