The next Monthly Update will also introduce the game's first new paid cosmetic items through a "crate and key system," which Greene took time in the community forum to address. Due to some of the negative reaction towards implementing the system, Greene expressed that the introduction and testing of the new paid cosmetics will "serve as the foundation of a healthy economy after launch," and will aim to "benefit all players - both who are willing to pay and who are not willing to pay for vanity items." However, Greene also addressed that "our messaging wasn't clear" in terms of implementing the new system, Drone Tablet Guide and added that the team will "try to communicate better moving forwa
I was one of those people for quite some time. Over the course of various preview events, conventions, and on my own time I've dabbled with a few different Early Access titles or survival games to varying success. Recent titles of the past few years, like Rust , We Happy Few , or ARK: Survival Evolved , grabbed my attention for a short amount of time thanks to their unique premises or ideas, but ultimately I ended up losing interest from some of the usual quirks of the survival sim genre. Given their love of crafting systems - which I often find unintuitive and confusing - and the need to monitor a series of Hunger/Thirst meters with death usually inches away, I've bounced off most of those titles fairly quickly. Survival sims can sometimes be intimidating to newcomers, and as a result that's sometimes made me reluctant to try t
Earning a chicken dinner victory in PUBG can come just as effectively from players that are aggressive and go after other players the moment they see them as they can from players that are deliberate and careful. A big part of that comes from using the environment to your advantage -- snipers that find manage to find a great hill or mountain can easily use that to their advantage to pick off players from a distance without ever knowing where they are. Likewise, setting up an ambush in a crowded city can also work to your advantage by keeping players guessing as to your location. Heck, avoiding combat altogether can sometimes be the best solution, as you sneak by while a passing enemy gets into a confrontation with another pla
PUBG clearly has more work to be done after its nine months of Early Access, but I'm more than looking forward to seeing the experience get bigger and better over time. Despite its initial hangups (and the issues that still plague it outside of Early Access), there's an incredibly strong foundation to PUBG 's gameplay that's clearly going to evolve in new and exciting ways. The version of PUBG that I'm reviewing now is very much going to look different a year from now, and honestly, that might just be the most exciting part of where this massively popular game heads n

The Early Access Month 2 Update brings a new vehicle, a new weapon, client performance optimization and much more. The update is scheduled to go live on May 25 5PM KST/1AM PDT/8AM UTC and is expected to take approx. 1 hour to compl
According to the post from PUBG Corps, the new update will be applied today to the game's test server, and will move over to the live servers at a later time once the patch is stabilized and and tested among the playerb
Rockstar has been pretty adamant that RDR2 will not be following in the footsteps of GTA 5 and will not have multiple protagonists. That being said, Rockstar has been known to be full of lies in the past to throw off audien
Well, after the massive success of Redemption it is safe to say that Rockstar has the time and resources for a much smoother development of RDR2 , which should me it would be much easier to port the code to
Over on the Steam community forum for the title, developer Brendan Greene (aka "PlayerUnknown") outlined what players can expect from the next Monthly Update for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, which includes a hefty number of updates for the game. Specifically, these include a new car horn feature when driving vehicles, the addition of first-person only servers for the game in Solo and Duo game types for North America and Europe, support for the Xbox One controller, new weapons and character customization options, and much m
Whatever nagging issues and growing pains that PUBG still has from its Early Access launch, there's still tons to enjoy from the multiplayer-only experience, thanks in large part to its addictive and intense gameplay. PUBG seems to have skyrocketed at the right place and time (especially given its perfect concept for streaming), and while the overall game has some significant work ahead to improve the experience, the core of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is one that, I think, will be the foundation of a new generation of games to c

Starting with nothing, players must fight to locate weapons and supplies in a battle to be the lone survivor.
