PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is Still an Experience Like No Other

Prequels, especially ones that center on how villains rise to power and turn from good to bad, Star Wars cough, can be dicey. So again, that had me concerned. Then their first few trailers were story focused, which was kind of mind-boggling to me. What even is this game? A true gameplay trailer didn’t even release until a few months away from this launch and even then I was a bit baffled. So now that it’s out, what do I think? To be blunt, I love it. That said there are some confusing things I wish I knew before I started so here are some helpful best tips and just some odd observations for newcomers. Hope this he

Red Dead Redemption II was both my most anticipated game of 2018 and also the one I was most wary of. I was a huge fan of the first game, which came out all the way back in 2010. It was the series I dreamed of Rockstar revisiting once again, but was always let down time and time again. Sometimes when we get our dreams and wishes granted, they end up being disappointing. There was a lot that could have gone wrong with this sequel and the first few showings didn’t have me exactly thrilled. The biggest reveal was that it was a prequel and not about a new group of people. That is to say, we were going to find out what John Marston’s life was like in the height of the Van der Linde gang. Yet we weren’t going to play John, but someone completely new that was never mentioned in the first g

During this X018 presentation, Dragon Ball representatives Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Goku, Golden Freiza, and Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Vegeta were all unveiled as new fighters in Jump Force . While their base versions are also in the game, these overpowered forms of these popular characters will also be available for those looking for a power t

Previously, grenade damage was greatly dependant on fall damage (from the grenade’s knockback effect) rather than explosion. We’ve removed the grenade’s knockback effect for player characters, and have adjusted it so that only explosion damage is applied when you’re struck by a gren

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is available now on PC, Xbox One, iOS, and Android. For a closer look at the upcoming changes and additions coming from Update 15 on PC, you can read the full patch notes below, along with several new images and a few vid

This is why the two games are not a great comparison. On one side, Epic’s battle royale experience is all about close range combat and constructing forts. Whereas PUBG Corporation’s rendition revolves around patience, strategy, and close to medium range combat. Your opinion of each game will most likely align with your playstyle. Most people love to run and gun. That is a big reason why Call of Duty sells so incredibly well every year and that is probably why Fortnite exploded. Well, besides it also being f

This means that for example, when aiming down the sight, you won’t gain the full accuracy improvements from ADS until your sights are aligned.

The winning player or team will now be given approximately 8 seconds to celebrate their victory before the match ends and results are displa

Crackdown 3 is also receiving a 5v5 multiplayer mode called Wrecking Zone that takes advantage of Microsoft’s Azure technology for mass destruction across two maps at launch. After a tumultuous development process, it’s great to finally see the game so close to finally shipping. The original Crackdown will also soon be available via Xbox Backwards Compatibility, so series fans should be satisfied over the next few mon

Fortnite can feel the complete opposite. Don’t get me wrong; the game is fantastic. I see why it has exploded into what it is today. It still never connected with me though. While you will find yourself in a lot more battles in Epic’s rendition of battle royale, I always felt that it was missing some suspense. No matter where you are at in Fortnite , you have cover. Well, unless you do not have any building materials, but that is not to often since you can gather materials from almost every object. Running from town to town usually is not an issue because if an enemy spots you and starts firing, just pop up a few walls and boom, cover! In fact, you can pull an entire fortress out of your pocket at a moment’s notice, provided you have the equipment. If I see another player off in the distance, a distance close enough that I can do some damage, I won’t bother because the opponent can erect a tower at the snap of a fin

We saw a bit of them in action on the game’s Paris stage as well, and they look as crazy as you’d think. Jump Force launches on February 15, though Bandai Namco Entertainment and Spike Chunsoft are still promising more character reveals leading up until lau

Over on the game’s Steam Community page, PUBG Corps revealed the patch notes for the upcoming Update #12 for the game’s PC version, which promises a hefty number of balance changes and more. The patch itself will be available later today after scheduled server maintenance at 7pm PT, while a new ranked season for the game will also be commencing to
