PUBG Region-Locked China, But It Hasn't Brought Players Back

In 2012, a modder by the name of Dean Hall released a mod for ARMA 2 called "DayZ." Its extreme survival focus being the result of Hall’s desire to create an experience that would cause its players to seriously consider their surroundings and survival needs, rather than just blindly reacting. As it turned out, many gamers out there were hungry for this new kind of gaming experience, and DayZ released to massive praise and popularity. So like ARMA 2 before it, DayZ also attracted a healthy modding community, and it wasn’t long before some members of that community starting trying to adapt the game’s survival elements for pvp-focused experiences. It wasn’t until a year later though, in 2013, that PlayerUnknown would make his debut and deliver one of the most influential DayZ mods to date, "PlayerUnknown’s Battle Royale."

In response to the uncertain state of PUBG , fans of other multiplayer-focused titles have urged developers to region-lock Chinese players. Most notably, battle royale fans currently enjoying EA and Respawn Entertainment’s Apex Legends are adamant about curtailing the flow of hack


The world can seem impossibly big, but it really isn't; it's delicate and can be horribly damaged by mankind's interference . In fact, such a situation is playing out right now in the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. Large swaths of lush greenery are being burned down by corporations, and the government of Brazil is doing nothing to stop it, going so far as to blame environmental NGO groups for the fires, creating a completely nonsensical conspiracy theory . The Amazon rainforest does a tremendous amount of work in balancing out the planet's natural carbon footprint, but burning down countless miles of said jungle will only accelerate the rate of man-made climate change, to say nothing of the cultural disaster that comes from destroying a sizeable portion of any ecosystem and every living creature in

The crossbow is very hard to rank amongst other weapons due to it being very different and unique. It is only the truly silent weapon, and it also packs an ability to one-shot any level Helmet in the game. However, its dreadful range and abysmal fire rate make it very less viable in an actual game. It is a niche weapon that can be used in case of urgency or if players are trying to have

The Mk14 is a semi-auto sniper rifle weapon comparable to the game's current SKS, as another crate-only weapon however, the chances of getting it (and other care package items) is becoming increasingly rare. With the previous rifle add-on (the Groza), soon the game will have to cycle some of these weapons into the regular loot ta
