As Battle(non)sense points out, the networking side of the game seems to have been less of a focus than the moment to moment gameplay and fresh take on the genre as a whole .

For example, there was a viral Facebook post that claimed a man left his pregnant wife due to PUBG addiction , and there was also a reported incident where a Chinese child was killed jumping off a building in an attempt to mimic PUBG . There are less specific incidents in India itself, or at least very few that have been publicized, but regardless, 16 people have now been arrested for playing the g The Canted Sight is being added to the game in the upcoming patch 25, which is currently playable on the PUBG Test Server on PC. It's a weapon attachment that's being added to the loot pool and Pubgfrontierzone.com allows players to quickly switch between any sight of their choosing and a canted red dot si Even with these potential networking problems, fans continue to flock to the free to play shooter thanks in large part to its engaging gameplay, fun mechanics, and fresh take on the saturated genre. More content could be right around the corner as dataminers have found new details for upcoming characters like Octane as well as a Battle Pass for players to unlock even more content on a seasonal ba While the future remains unknown (sorry) for Greene, it's an exciting move from a creative mind that was clearly ready for a change. PUBG might not be faring well lately, but Greene managed to turn a relatively small project into a worldwide phenomenon, and whatever he turns his attention to next will surely be measured under intense scrutiny and anticipation as a result. As the battle royale genre begins to grow a little stale for some, perhaps PlayerUnknown will be the one to innovate gaming's trajectory once m "The past five years of my life has been all about battle royale...today, I'm excited to announce that my new day-to-day focus will be heading up a new division of PUBG Corp.: PUBG Special Projects.

It's not guaranteed to make you better at quickscoping, but it may help you out in a pinch if your enemy is too close for comf In terms of networking features, Apex Legends also came back pretty barebones. As of right now, the game doesn't have Network Warning Icons, it does not favor the shooter limitation for players with more than 200ms ping, and it's missing many standard networking settings like an FPS limiter and a Network Graph or Overlay. Packet Splitting is also set as server to client and sends 5 packets per update, the highest of all the games listed in this test. The more times the packet is split, the higher the chance that the player sees lag or odd behavior. Now, it's worth pointing out that each of the other games in this test also suffered from their own issues, but Apex Legends had negative results in nearly every category tes PUBG on all platforms is in need of "fixing," as PUBG Corp. admitted through a public and transparent "Fix PUBG " campaign . While PUBG was a trailblazer for the battle royale genre, the fact that Fortnite and Blackout run significantly better, especially on consoles as popular as the PS4, doesn't bode well for the longevity of PUBG .
