I can’t count the number of times my friends and I found a car to reach the shrinking playable area of the map, only to have one idiot flip the car on the way there. Lesson One: Friends are the best/worst people to play with, depending on how much of a troll they are. My previous few experiences with PUBG has taught me a few lessons. Of course, you’re more than welcomed to just wander around in the open but, that puts your fate in the hands of the 99 other players. In a first-person shooter setting, PUBG encourages players to camp because that is the safest way for you to stay alive. The entire objective of PUBG is about survivability. In-game currency is earned every end of the round and the amount depends on how long you survived, the number of players you killed and the amount of damage you managed to inflict. This has no advantage to your gameplay all it does is make you look either cool or stupid, depending on how you want to dress yourself. Much like many other online multiplayer games, PUBG comes with its own in-game currency that can be used to purchase cosmetic items for player customisation. The bad part: it increases your chances of encountering other players or getting shot to death while running to it in an open area. The good thing about loot drops is the items you will get from them as you can’t find them anywhere else in the game. Loot drops will also appear every now and then during the duration of the game with red smoke billowing from it. This also increases your chances of encountering other players in the game. Every few minutes, the playable area of the map will shrink, which means you must get yourself into the zone or die a slow and annoying death outsize the zone. With the number of weapons scattered around the map (which varies each round), I can’t help but wonder if the island is located somewhere in America with its ultra-lax gun laws (too soon?)Īs the entire map is playable and explored, this gives off a false sense of security. Set in a dystopian island where all 100 players will parachute down from to scavenge the land for weapons, armour and supplies, the objective of PUBG is simple: kill or be killed. You can either play it solo or in a team of four, which could or could not work out in your favour. A survival game without any horror but a lot of stress and pressure added, PUBG consists of a 100-player limit battle arena where you and 99 other players are fighting to be the last man standing.
PUBG is much like your typical multiplayer online battle arena game, but with an added twist. PUBG also surpassed other popular Valve titles like Dota 2 and CS:GO so you know it’s good.Īfter hearing about all the hype PUBG has gained and through various friends and streamers, I decided to give PUBG a go, even against my better judgment (I hate games that are over-hyped.) In a Nutshell Never has a game captured the world with such intensity than PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG.) Although still part of Steam’s Early Access program, PUBG has already gained a healthy following, hitting over one million players at its peak.
