First, though, he mentioned updates. The team is committing to more frequent updates, with big content delivery coming every two months, and smaller updates coming more frequently. The big ones will make changes to systems or drop content, where smaller updates will focus on bugs. Aesthetics will be updated now and again as well. Bluehole will also launch an Experimental Test Server to help get feedback from players on future content.
While it may be the case that the PUBG Corporation objects to other developers profiting from games based heavily on their formula, it may also be the case that the PUBG Corporation has decided to act only now that they have released PUBG on mobile devices , and so are now competing directly with NetEase in the same market. Often, copycat titles go relatively unnoticed because they are released on mobile platforms only, where they do not compete directly with the original game on PC or conso
This smaller map is apparently an effort by developers to make PUBG faster paced. The game’s attempt at world domination stepped up a notch recently with the release of PUBG Mobile for iOS and Android. While the graphical quality and controls obviously took something of a hit, the game runs surprisingly well on mobile and drawn yet more players into PlayerUnknown’s Battleground web. The game also proved to be a big hit on Xbox One despite numerous gameplay issues and player complai
The lawsuit does cite a number of specific instances, however, including a particular “rural aqueduct” that appears in both titles, the use of a frying pan as a weapon, certain armour or weapon parts cited as “near-exact copies,” and the repeated use of the phrase “winner winner chicken dinner,” which was used in marketing material for NetEase’s two games. NetEase was involved in a legal case alleging copyright infringement last year , but ironically, in that case they were the ones filing the suit alongside Blizzard, against a Chinese clone of Overwatch. NetEase actually oversees the Chinese localization of the Blizzard ti
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds can be tough, but its also incredibly tense and absorbing. That’s one of the reasons the game is the third bestselling title ever on Steam – and one of the top 10 bestselling games period. The success of PUBG doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon either, and after seasoned players exhausted the original map, a second titled Miramar was added recently to keep things fr
The test servers will be home to a lot of tweaks to gameplay as well. Bullets don’t currently penetrate through limbs or vehicles, but this mechanic will be tested out soon. This in an attempt to add depth to the ballistic system and to make the game feel more realistic. He reassures players that they will be listening especially closely to player feedback on that one.
At least the new map’s potential looks cool and there’s talk of new vehicles (including an armored UAZ found in test files for an upcoming event) and weapons that we’ve seen so few of the last half-y
Despite encountering a multitude of difficulties, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has managed to continually change and grow in the months since it exploded onto the gaming scene early last year. Just last weekend the game’s developers implemented a new War mode that pitted three squads of ten players against each other. This new mode only lasted for the weekend, but PUBG Corp appears to have several other additions in the works that will help keep the game’s community energi
It seems like a lot for one year, but with the amount of people still playing PUBG and the boom that is happening right now in the battle royale scene, PlayerUnknown and the team at Bluehole are in for some stiff competition and they’ll have to work hard if they want to keep up.
In the latest blog post from PlayerUnknown himself, the road-map the company is looking at for the upcoming year has been detailed . The goals include everything from game modes and maps, to weapons, vehicles and emotes.
The PUBG Corporation’s lawsuit reveals that the company first acted against NetEase on January 24th, when PUBG Vehicles Corp filed a complaint with Apple over the clone titles being available on the App Store. Although it is unknown whether PUBG Corporation asked for the games to be delisted, Apple forwarded the complaint to NetEase, who responded by denying that their titles infringed on the PUBG Corporation’s rights. Evidently, the PUBG Corporation now feels confident enough that they do to take NetEase to court over the matter. This is not the first time NetEase has been involved with a clone title; the company announced FortCraft , a game which looks suspiciously similar to Fortnite , although no legal action has yet been taken against them for that ti
Today, PUBG Corp posted another update in the news section of the PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Steam page. Titled “Inspirations of Codename: Savage – Volume II,” the post describes the developer’s plans for the game’s Savage map going forward. They lead off the post by stating their plans to regularly update the map going forward; stating that “we have months of work left to do.” Most importantly, this update both describes and shows what will become the Savage map’s defining feature: an underground cave sys
