The lawsuit is filled with side-by-side screenshots taken from PUBG, Rules of Survival, and Knives Out, demonstrating the remarkable similarity between the original game and the two copycat titles. While the lawsuit lists some 25 “copyrightable” aspects of PUBG , which range from players being forced to run to increasingly small circular areas on the map to having a pre-game lobby which allows players to run around and fire weap

At least the new map’s potential looks cool and there’s talk of new vehicles (including an armored UAZ found in test files for an upcoming event) and weapons that we’ve seen so few of the last half-y

Ever since its inception, the development team behind PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has been trying to thwart cheating as much as possible, with one attempt being in the addition of reporting aspects to the game, including the somewhat recently incorporated 3D killcams and replay features . Furthermore, PUBG Corp. has, as Greene suggested to US Gamer, implemented “anti-cheating testing internally” with the company “working to build systems to really get a handle on the guys that don’t want to play fa

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds publisher Bluehole Studio’s announced recently (via VG247 ) the release of new, 4×4 map for the game dubbed “Savage”. This small new map is being made available early for testing purposes and will be changed as player feedback rolls in. The new map won’t be available via the server either; instead, PUBG will distribute keys to a limited number of play

The PUBG Corporation is seeking damages from NetEase over their violations, and also seek to shut down both Rules of Survival and Knives Out . This isn’t the first time that PUBG has had issues in China – just a few months ago, over one hundred PUBG cheat makers were arrested in the country by police working in concert with Tencent, the company responsible for PUBG’s mobile port and Chinese localizat

The map selector is about to become more essential than ever since PUBG’s third map, Codename: Savage , has already become playable on the new test client on Steam. We tried it out when it first released and while we enjoy the idea of a faster-paced option on a map that’s one-quarter the sized of the other two, the mid-game is still slow and the map looked incredibly ugly and unfinished. PUBG Corp rushed it out to get early feedback and to have something to show for themselves other than weapon skin loot bo

Taking all of this into consideration, it looks as if PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds will not be region locking China any time soon in an effort to discourage cheaters. So, hopefully the aforementioned efforts on behalf of PUBG Corp. and Tencent will manage to stymie the unethical practice in the long run, if not end it altoget

Considering the fact that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Steam sales have made it the third-highest grossing game on Valve’s digital distribution platform, it’s safe to say that the battle royale title is a bona fide success. Of course, many would still argue that the game suffers from a litany of issues, with one ever-present complaint from lots of fans being about how Chinese cheaters are making Pubg Updates matches unfair. This has led to plenty of calls for PUBG Corp. to “region lock China,” but its creator Brendan Greene disagrees that it’s a viable solution to the prob

What’s more is that Tencent – the company responsible for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ‘ Chinese localization and the mobile port – went so far as to work with the country’s police to catch cheat makers. This collaboration between Tencent and the Chinese authorities assisted police in uncovering 30 cases of alleged involvement in making PUBG cheats and led to the arrest 120 people in Chi

One common criticism lobbied at PUBG is its poor rewards system. Players are given some BP, PUBG ‘s in-game currency , at the end of every match, which is then spent on crates that often yield lackluster cosmetics. While PUBG Mobile still has lackluster rewards in many regards, one thing it does that other versions of the game may want to emulate is its use of daily log-in bonuses. Daily log-in bonuses encourage regular activity and stand as yet another way to reward players for the time they’re spending with the g

That’s not the only good news because according to a tweet by Skin-Tracker, data mining for the new update reveals that new weapon attachments are incoming. New 3x and 6x scopes will be coming, in addition to a Duckbill attachment for shotguns which will increase their horizontal spread. That said, since the developers themselves haven’t confirmed these new additions, this information should be taken with a pinch of salt for

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds can be tough, but its also incredibly tense and absorbing. That’s one of the reasons the game is the third bestselling title ever on Steam – and one of the top 10 bestselling games period. The success of PUBG doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon either, and after seasoned players exhausted the original map, a second titled Miramar was added recently to keep things fr
