Playerunknown's Battlegrounds: Advanced Players Tips & Tricks

As his consultancy role with Daybreak Game Company was coming to a close in 2015, Greene was approached by Chang-han Kim of Bluehole. Kim offered Greene the opportunity to develop a new battle royale-style game. After meeting with Kim at the studio’s South Korean headquarters, Greene was brought on as a creative director. Development for PUBG officially began in early 2016, with game seeing an early-access release in March 2017.

It not only masks your presence in or through a building but it can also serve as a powerful warning sign for incoming players. Shutting doors creates the facade that the room has yet to be looted. It can mask your presence in a building or simply waste an enemy player's time. It also provides a distinct auditory cue that an enemy player is inbound. Allowing for proper setup and the upper hand in combat engageme

First and most important is that it must be relevant to our global community. We listen to and work to understand what our gaming community likes and would find entertaining. We’re not signing up anything that comes our way, we’re being very selective about who we work with as viewed through the perspective of the game and our play

The first items a player should find are weapons. Guns, grenades, and melee weapons are what win or lose a game of PUBG. So understanding a basic loadout philosophy will insure at least minor success in common combat scenarios. It is important a player finds a close quarter weapon and a long-range to mid-range weapon. Close quarter weapons should be rapid fire and high damage items. No matter how good a player is during an intense firefight, having a weapon that fires a large number of rounds can seal an easy kill. Close range weapons should have the ability to fire off a large number of bullets and cover a close but far spread within a small amount of time. Weapons that fill this role are shotguns, SMGs or automatic assault rifles. Making sure you have an adequate long-range weapon is by far the most important facet of winning a game of PUBG . Unlike other battle royale shooters most of PUBG's battle encounters occur in a mid to long-range distance, so be sure to utilize the powerful single fire function on many assault rifles and the coveted sniper rifles in the g

There's fun to be had as asocial experience, and PUBG is certainly better than the sum of its many subpar parts, but the resources earned through the record-breaking success of PUBG have not translated into a game that holds up in the current climate of high-end shooters, and we can only hope that if major updates (or a sequel of sorts) are on the way, that PUBG's success supports a triple-A experience instead of a frustrating one that looks and feels dated. But given where we're at now, after nearly two years since its first release, and the fact that PUBG Corporation released the game in this state on PS4, there's little h

The utility behind this maneuver is extremely practical and can be an excellent feather in a player's cap. This technique can allow for quick vehicular dismounts from otherwise lethal situations or it can be an extremely potent diversion tactic. Either way, this is a maneuver that should be practiced and implemented into any aspiring player's reperto

In 2012, a modder by the name of Dean Hall released a mod for Final Fantasy XV Pocket Edition 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."

Previous partnerships have included items from and music by international DJ Alan Walker; a team-up with basketball stars Giannis Antetokounmpo, Ben Simmons, Andre Drummond, Isaiah Thomas and Lonzo Ball; unique items inspired by Mission: Impossible - Fallout, Godzilla: King of the Monsters as well as a deep Resident Evil 2 crossover. We will be revealing a few more exciting collaborations before the end of the year, so please stay tu

The Xbox version of the game, a half-baked port of a PC title which isn't well optimized as is on its lead platform, still runs poorly even on the powerful Xbox One X. Its fundamental gameplay mechanics are clunky and subpar compared to any other notable shooter, and it looks dated. Skip forward a year, and now PlayStation 4 players can experience the same disappointment and bugs. Little has changed, and shockingly, PUBG on PS4 is the worst version of the g
