PUBG Gets More Loot Boxes Faster Than Map Selector
Dr DisRespect finally made his return to Twitch.tv today, and in the process managed to take the platform down. The streamer, whose real name is Guy Beahm, is one of the most popular around, and his caustic personality has gelled well with Twitch users. He's the (self-proclaimed) "face of Twitch" after all! The former video game developer has managed to pull in huge numbers with his PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds streams, leading to the doctor becoming one of the biggest Twitch celebrities and winner of two awards for it last y
The developer goes on to note that in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , players must "visually detect" other players because of the lack of player indicators seen in other shooter games. PUBG Corp. is using this particular section of the lawsuit to assert that games like Rules of Survival have also ripped off the style of cosmetics offered by PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds . These cosmetic similarities, the developer appears to suggest, should be taken seriously because they actively impact the core, PUBG gameplay experience. It also argues that the visual design of these cosmetics is a "protectable" w
As PUBG came closer to launch, many of the small updates, in addition to the expected refinements and tweaks, included new weapons or clothing items, with the former primarily being loot crate-exclusive guns that weren’t common enough to have a drastic impact on the core gameplay for most players. While these small additions were welcome, and would continue to be so over the months to come, Bluehole will have to set their sights higher if they want to keep old players returning and attract new players. Considering how large an impact the second map has made upon the playerbase, concrete details regarding a third or fourth map could spark intrigue among the community, as well as the assortment of new vehicles that could be found within it. Beyond the predictable, Bluehole and PUBG Corp. likely have a few surprises up their sleeves as PUBG Collectibles enters its second year and it will be interesting to see whether or not the developers can curb the current downward trend of one of 2017’s definitive titles.
As people have been quick to note, the Ghillie suit is available to all PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds players for free. Many players also rush to find it in pockets of loot across the map because of its effectiveness and so the suggestion that the Ghillie suit is a useful cosmetic is not necessarily news. But this section of the lawsuit does raise a larger question about how cosmetic loot can affect gameplay even if it doesn't provide any discernible buffs to attributes and st
Like many other early access titles, Bluehole did an admirable job of keeping fans informed on the short and long-term plans of PUBG. From weekly patches to minor overhauls and brand-new features, Bluehole embraced their ever-growing fanbase through teases on social media and trailers at E3 to showcase the imminent future of the best-seller. This continued until PUBG 1.0 launched in December, and ever since the developer and its community representatives have kept relatively quiet, leaving many fans in a period of confusion and growing disinterest in regards to the game’s future. While this likely isn’t the only reason for the game’s recent droppage, Bluehole should resume their initiative to keep fans informed on what lies on the horizon now that PUBG has officially released, including not only the rumored PS4 release, but the core game’s new features, weapons, maps, improvements and more. Fortunately, PUBG Corp community manager Sammie Kang addressed an upcoming roadmap for PUBG in early 2018 on Twitter, meaning this key step towards repairing the developer’s relation with its fans could be arriving in the near future.
At this point, very few people within the various communities of gaming need an explainer regarding the multiplayer phenomenon that is PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. Over the past eleven months, the survival title has broken numerous player and sales records , while consistently shocking and entertaining the internet with its onslaught of clips and GIFs that highlight the insanity of the hundred-player arena game. As developer Bluehole finally pushed PUBG out of early access at the end of last year, the most-played title for months on Steam has finally started to show some cracks in its armor, with Steam Charts reporting a loss of average players of over one hundred thousand over the past thirty days, marking the first decline in the title’s history. As alarming as that may seem, there’s no reason for panic quite yet; PUBG’s impressive numbers inevitably had to dip after such a lengthy run and the title is still the number one played game on Steam by over a million players. There is, however, reason to be concerned if that decay continues over the weeks and months to come, but there are some steps Bluehole and PUBG Corporation can take to avoid any major drops beyond the inevitable.
