Playerunknown's Battleground ** _s** _ is a deeply complex and realistic take on the battle royale genre. Providing realistic shooting mechanics on top of a vast assortment of techniques that challenge a player's technical skill. PUBG is as rewarding as it can be brutal, the ability to continually expand the skill gap between a new player and a master is rooted AI in gaming both game knowledge and pract

There isn’t much to say about AWM except it has by far the highest damage in the game. A single headshot from AWM is capable enough to knock out a player with level 3 Helmet. The gun is incredible in every possible way and is air-drop exclusive, rightfully so. AWM deals maximum damage up to the range of 150 meters after which, its damage starts to fall till the range of 679 met

Another SMG making the list, Micro Uzi has been the star of the competitive show in recent times. When it comes to close-combat, Micro Uzi can decimate every other assault rifle in the game. The only downside of the gun is the lack of range and that players need to connect their bullets for better damage as Micro Uzi’s spray is very quick and rapid. The gun is easily available throughout a game, making it a very popular choice amongst high elo play

Now onto the new crates themselves. Here is a look (up top and below) at some of the items available in the 2 free-to-open crates. There's an additional one only available during Gamescom that requires the purchase of a $2.50 key to o

All this did was leave the gaming community telling Monolith, " I told you so ." It's a criticism that had been laid at the game at launch and every day since, and so having it sold back to players without an apology didn't do much to salvage Shadow of War . As such, its legacy remains tied to a publisher that delved too greedily and too d

Chumacera is the husk of Miramar's once thriving textile industry. Long abandoned factories overlook a main road lined with residential and commercial buildings. Verticality in both the buildings and terrain make this town an exciting location to loot- high risk, high opportun

Kicking off with a surprising entry, Vector has become a complete beast after the SMG buffs. Its overall customizability and the ease of access makes it a top tier gun. Players can easily find Vector in the early stages of the game, and when fully equipped, it can beat out anything in close range. However, the gun does struggle without an Extended Mag as its mag size is very low. It’s also not appropriate for long-range fights where it can easily be beaten out by other g

When the PlayStation Classic finally arrived, the critic reviews were underwhelming . A reliance on the PAL versions of the game left NTSC users dealing with what seemed to be sluggish ports, while the absence of titles like Crash Bandicoot was made all the more apparent at launch. Hardly a fitting celebration for such a great cons

I'm at our new @PUBATTLEGROUNDS office in Madison today. The team is working on our desert map. Here's a WIP preview of this new location... pic.twitter.com/ReLbsvwv9A — PLAYERUNKNOWN (@PLAYERUNKNOWN) July 3,

EA needed to have a good year after the savage mauling it received at the hands of fans in 2017. Games such as Star Wars: Battlefront II had been at the front of the video game loot boxes debate, which saw publishers such as EA come under fire for bad business models and potentially even using mechanics akin to gambling in their games. In the end, EA promised to do better with its future releases, and as such would come under a lot of scrut

M416 is the only non-air-drop 5.56 weapon that is still in the high tier. Even though it has been nerfed multiple times in the past, the gun still is a solid option that is fit for every situation. It’s way more versatile than any other assault rifle in the same class, and overall, it has been an old faithful for most 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
