On that last point, PUBG is by no means the "best" game from this year. On a technical level, it's still riddled with bugs and in dire need of fine-tuned optimization on PC (and on Xbox One as well, given the reports of its significant technical performance issues). Likewise, its progression and micro-transactions systems are a step back compared to the more satisfying sense of earning loot and rewards from investing time into it as games like Overwatch prov [pullquote]The noise surrounding Batt...

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, microtransactions the core of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is one that, I think, ...

Part of that comes from the twists and turns that Battlegrounds implements to keep the action focused and the dynamics of each match constantly evolving. Aside from other players, one of the biggest threats that players will have to face throughout the entire match is an electric forcefield that constricts the playable areas of the map gradually, which works to both prevent camping or cheesing the game mechanics, and to push players into tighter fields of play and encourage confrontation. That a...

These strategies will no doubt continue to develop as time goes on and new maps are introduced. Currently, PUBG has only two maps: the Eastern European-styled Erangel map (which is the game's original map) and the newly-released Miramar map that pits players inside of a mountainous desert valley. While by comparison to most other shooters this might be paltry, the size and depth of what the maps offer provides thousands of different ways to obtain vict Bluehole and PLAYERUNKNOWN (Brendan Greene)...

You know who isn’t known for being tight-lipped? The rest of the human race, especially when they have nothing significant to add to the conversation. Yes, when we actually know nothing about something we desperately want to discuss, we tend to pluck absolute nonsense straight out of the air. That is how rumors get started. While rumors about video games can be incredibly useful, as they can help developers see what fans actually want to see in the game, other times it is just one sad weirdo try...
