PUBG is one of the few popular shooters that has a complex and somewhat realistic shooting system. It has intense and sometimes debilitating recoil and a variety of sites hidden in the map. This realism coupled with the high damage taken when shot can make combat engagement incredibly short and difficult to win. To succeed in PUBG a player must learn how to sh

Within the game, you'll notice what may be the worst texture pop-in you've seen on the PlayStation 4, severe frame rate drops and the clunkiest shooting and looting mechanics. To play as a shooter experience, PUBG is bad and so it shouldn't be played for that. What it does well however, and this part translates to every version of the game (even on mobile), is the feeling of survival and when playing with others, the team-based tact

This is where assault rifles establish superiority over the Sniper, while it is better at long range, it doesn't compare to the assault rifles util

What's also a letdown is PUBG's development focus that has seen a slow rollout of content and essential fixes, consistently poor optimization, and an aggressive focus on unwelcome microtransactions for cosmetics, and worse, loot boxes. When combined with a terrible reward rate of in-game currency, PUBG's gameplay loop is simply a turn

However, before too long alarm bells were ringing. The PlayStation Classic's full game list had plenty of would-be buyers rethinking their purchase, with some big name games missing from the roster. Meanwhile, the fact that the PlayStation Classic was using an open image source emulator suggested what many feared: Sony wasn't putting its all into the retro

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.
