Responding to the fan backlash, Greene said in his announcement, "While our intention was and still is to add the full feature to the game when we move into actual release, we do need to test it prior to launch and at Early Access so that it is stable and ready to be fully introduced to our community." He also stressed that the microtransactions were "purely optional," so players who aren't interested in spending more money on the game don't have
At the moment, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' FPP mode is only available to be played solo on Xbox One, with group servers likely to be added at some point in the future. As of now, FPP servers for the console version of PUBG will be deployed in North America, Europe, and Ocea
What most fans seem to agree on, though, is that they would like both games to coexist peacefully. They may include battle royale gameplay, but that doesn't mean that there can only be one victor once this dispute is sett
Without a doubt, the popularity of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds continues to grow, as the title recently managed to reach over 3 million players on Xbox One just about a week ago. Of course, with such a huge pool of gamers flocking to the title, there are bound to be some rotten apples in the bunch, and the development team at PUBG Corp has confirmed just that by revealing its intentions to ban over 100,000 cheaters on the title's PC vers
The Battlegrounds team is "concerned that Fortnite may be replicating the experience for which PUBG is known for," with Kim warning that the Bluehole team is "contemplating further action." At this point, it's unclear exactly what that this "further action" might look like, but if Bluehole does decide to file a lawsuit, then it could put the future of Fortnite 's soon-to-be free to play game mode at r
Epic Games has yet to respond to Bluehole's harshly worded statement, but fans of both games are already weighing in. Some argue that Epic should have seen this coming, as the developer directly names Battlegrounds as an inspiration, and that Bluehole was always going to take issue with it. But others say that Bluehole is in the wrong, arguing that the concept of battle royale modes are nothing new. Grand Theft Auto Online has a battle royale mode for example, while PlayerUnknown himself, Brendan Greene, actually consulted on H1Z1 's battle royale mode before Battlegrounds was relea
Without a doubt, one of the most popular features to be incorporated into the PC version of Bluehole Studio's PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was the addition of a first-person mode , as it brought about a new layer of immersion into the game. Now, fans on Xbox One will be able to take part in the title's First Person Perspective (FPP) mode thanks to a brand new patch from the develo
This particular decision was reached after PUBG Corp ran an extensive and comprehensive data review of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to find "new pattern" of cheating occurring with the game on PC. As seen in a Steam Community post regarding the matter, PUBG Corp isn't taking the issue lightly, as it has stated that those who have been found taking part in exploiting the game will be "permanently banned in a single wa
When Epic Games announced that Fortnite would be getting a Battle Royale game mode , the comparisons to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds were instantaneous. With both games now offering 100 player, PvP gameplay, many wondered how Battlegrounds would be able to fend off this new challe
As one might expect, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' latest patch on Xbox One not only incorporates the long-awaited First Person Perspective mode, but it also improves client and server performance, while also bringing fixes to crashes. Naturally, these are incredibly important refinements to be made, but the FPP mode will be the main draw for many fans of PU
It seems that the comparisons have not gone unnoticed by the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' ( PUBG ) team either, as today, developer Bluehole sent out a press release criticizing Epic Games over its Fortnite update. Bluehole vice president Chang Han Kim says, "After listening to the growing feedback from our community and reviewing the gameplay for ourselves, we are concerned that Fortnite may be replicating the experience for which PUBG is known." Kim also reveals that Bluehole has had "an ongoing relationship with Epic Games throughout PUBG ’s development as they are the creators of [Unreal Engine 4], the engine we licensed for the ga
