The post reminds PUBG players that this is the first time a balance patch like this has been introduced and that it will be trialed on the test servers before going live. Weapon attachments will undergo similar changes, although the post doesn't reveal exactly how the armory will be affected. Elsewhere, the lauded level three helmets are being confined solely to supply drops. Effectively an extra life to players, the level three helmet was crucial in protecting your head from those sniper sh

The developers behind **PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ** detailed a new update and admitted to players that they have dropped the ball over the past year. In posts on both the Steam Community forum and subreddit for the game, PUBG ’s developers addressed a number of issues, including concerns regarding loot boxes and continued flow of randomized cosmetics being a priority for the stu

While a lot of the games listed are ones that Sony has been teasing for years (and still haven't released), the biggest news here is arguably Bloodborne 2 , which has become one of From Software's biggest titles outside of the core Dark Souls series. The game received overwhelming praise when it released in 2015, and fans have been wanting a sequel ever since. Plus, there's the long-rumored Devil May Cry 5 and SOCOM: Coalition , as well as a BioShock PSVR title on the

I am dreading my next game, because it’s PlayerUnknown’s Next Game . And there’s going to be eyes on it. No matter what I do, there’s going to be a lot of critics going, 'Well, it’s no PUBG.' And I’ve accepted that – I am not going to make a game that’s going to get like, three million concurrent users, and tens of millions of players every month. But I’m not aiming to make that. I want to make a game I want to play, and if other people want to play it, that’s fantastic – but ultimately, if they don’t, I’ll still have a game that I can play. So that’s my outlook: I’m probably going to get sh*t on, but that’s o

It's great to see that Greene has realistic views towards his next game. Trying to replicate the success of PUBG would be a near-impossible task, and every move he makes in the future will be under a microscope. There will always be angry fans and critics going forward, so his attitude of " I'm probably going to get sh*t on, but that's okay " is the right one to h

E3 2018 is almost here, and leaks are starting to trickle out in advance of the massive gaming expo. The rumor flames have now been stoked by an anonymous contributor on 4chan, and they’ve revealed what’s purportedly a photo of the internally distributed PlayStation E3 schedule, which lists a series of the highly-anticipated trailers and reveals that will be emerging from E3 2

PlayerUnknown may have only recently started thinking about his next game, but he also told fans not to expect it too soon since there's still plenty he wants to do with PUBG DLC . Not only does he plan to continuing improving the popular multiplayer shooter - PUBG 's developers admitted to failing players recently - but he plans on making sure it becomes an eSports staple. Greene talked about the importance of hiring former Riot Games chief marketing officer Jung Hyun Kwon, and hopes to replicate the success of League of Legends in the Korean market, which makes sense now that games like H1Z1 are attempting to push Battle Royales into the eSports ar

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds _ creator Brendan Greene aka PlayerUnknown never expected the Battle Royale shooter to become such a huge hit for his team at Bluehole, but with success comes pressure. PlayerUnknown recently spoke out bout the side-effects of creating such a popular game. Greene stated that he knows his follow-up project isn't going to become as much of a cultural milestone, and that it's " _probably going to get s*** o

Aside from those games, one of the biggest surprises on the list is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - one of the most popular Battle Royale games on PC, which released on Xbox One last fall and has amassed quite the player count on the console. Unfortunately, PUBG 's player count on PC has been dwindling, and with H1Z1 now out on PS4 in open beta , this would be the perfect opportunity for Bluehole to expand to the PS4 and establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with on consoles, especially with Fortnite continuing to dominate in the Battle Royale sp

However, the facts remain: Fortnite is here, free-to-play, and, unlike its Battle Royale inspiration, doesn’t include any " gambling " for skins. PUBG , on the other hand, features randomized crates earned through regular play, with premium crates unlockable by keys. Those keys need to be purchased with real money, which leaves players unwilling to buy them, which leaves the option of either keeping unopened crates inert in their inventory or selling them on the Steam marketplace. These mechanics foster an elaborate economy, generating a system which fuels continued income to the game. On the other hand, it also creates undue frustration for many of its players, all of whom have already spent money to purchase the game in the first place and feel put off by microtransacti
