As with all games, this downward trend in player count likely has a considerable amount to do with the game’s age. Few titles can boast the continued popularity of software like CS:GO or Team Fortress 2 , and, according to Steam Charts , this update did virtually nothing to draw players back to the game. While its status as a willing victim of player mal-intent couldn’t have helped, it’s likely that PUBG is succumbing to simple entr

For players who can't get into Fortnite or Call of Duty: Black Ops 4's Blackout battle royale mode, PUBG is certainly worth checking out, but only for those who have a PlayStation 4 Pro. The game can barely run on the standard PS4 and it's not even worth trying there. It's important to note that there's less available in the PlayStation 4 version of the g

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

Unfortunately, that thrill is marred by bad interface designs that make looting and managing inventory painful and dangerous, given that you can be shot while navigating tabs and manually moving things around while trying to loot or mod a weapon. The devs did minimal work in translating the game to console controllers, and didn't take any of the learnings from other games that do this bet

Yet, as player numbers dropped and competition became more prominent, Bluehole finally caved to audience demands and removed the ability to search for games by region. While it was a well-received—albeit incredibly late—gesture, it did relatively little to stem the torrent of cheaters plaguing Western servers. Players can easily use a VPN service to artificially switch regions, and there are similar workarounds for the ping lock restriction. Things may be a little better than they once were, but aim-botting, unkillable cheaters sporting triple-digit ping figures are still fairly common in most ar

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

It is a big mistake as other players are already looking in that area. The best way is to travel to a small cabin or house near the edge of the potential blue zone marker. A lot of such homes are one way and do not allow players to jump other players who are hiding. Continually keeping the corner will always give you the edge. No p

To be perfectly clear, Nuclear Winter is a great thing in the context of Fallout 76 . It manages to breathe a little bit of life into a title that most gamers had given up for dead after its perfectly disastrous launch, and it's fun in its own, incredibly strange, signature Bethesda brand of utter lun

As if buying clothes in real life wasn't enough, PUBG has a whole market full of outfits and clothing items to wear. A lot of these are fancy outfits , flashy, beautiful, and utterly useless for the multiplay

But which ones are actually worth your time? With such a remarkably lengthy catalog of battle royale titles looking to cash in on the fad, the sheer number of options can be just a little overwhelming. Just dive into the list below to see the top five battle royale games that are definitely worth checking out (if you haven't already), alongside five that should be avoided at all co

Blizzard's Hearthstone sounds like it should be the least controversial title on the company's roster but this year, thanks to some politics, it is knee-deep in an ongoing controversy that has seen bans galore handed

Radical Heights is offline as of the writing of this article, so that should go a long way towards to explaining why it rates as the absolute worst. This '80s nostalgia-themed spin saw some initial promise when it released into early access on Steam, with gamers charmed by its neon-retro aesthetic and gimmicky game show presentat

Fans from around the world have long asked Bluehole to block Chinese players from accessing other regions, and Eastern metaverse Gaming titan Tencent even introduced a host of region-exclusive servers for PUBG Mobile in the hopes that it would incentivize players based in China to stay within their digital territ

The other ban which angered players was that of Jaret Burkett, who most players know as the person behind Map 76. He was one of a group of players banned after combing through the data files, trying to find and report issues in an effort to get them fixed faster. He maintains he was trying to help but Bethesda doesn't see it that
