That said, everyone has a preference between the two. Even though they are both fun games that players can sink countless hours into, there are subtle differences between the two that make them stand out from each other. So, it’s about time that we take a look at them and let you decide which is the definitive Battle Royale g
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds offers the chance to explore and scrap through the three gigantic maps of Miramar, Erangel, and Sanhok–with Vikendi having just recently entered the Public Test Server to boot. One's tasked with scrounging for consumables, armor, and weapons to survive matches populated with up to 100 players, as a storm circle slowly encroaches and forces those still alive to duke it out in tense, ever-closer firefights. This can be done as a Solo endeavor, or in Duos and 4-person Squads, but the goal essentially remains the same no matter the size of the team, and that is to be the only survivor(s) at the end of the ma
Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds or more popularly know as PUBG boasts a huge arsenal of weapons to choose from. Ranging from meager pistols to powerhouse rifles, there is a weapon for every scenario and playstyle. With a big roster of weapons comes the question as to which weapon players should priorit
Both PUBG and Fortnite get updates. But with Fortnite , the updates are plenty. The game constantly gets new game modes and content, like a 20 vs 20 mode that makes five teams of 20 players each go up against each ot
M416 is the only non-air-drop 5.56 weapon that is still in the high tier. Even though it has been nerfed multiple times in the past, the gun still is a solid option that is fit for every situation. It’s way more versatile than any other assault rifle in the same class, and overall, it has been an old faithful for most play
The vehicles in PUBG maps are as essential to the game as players running through the fields swinging frying pans and getting sniped by Shroud. Let's see what we have here -- Minivans full of squads slamming into buildings and going up in flames, motorcyclists flipping through the skies only to get their best friend killed as they run into a tree -- ah, the list goes on. It's all so much good fun, and while Fortnite does have some great vehicles as of today, they're mostly meant for playing around with. They just aren't the craziness that can be found with the vehicles in P
Apart from the very early stages of the game, either of the P18C/P92 is not worth picking up. Everything from the very inconsistent recoil to low damage output makes both of these a bad weapon. They are hardly utilized and rightfully so. Almost every weapon in the game can perform better than these handguns, and there isn’t much going in favor of either of P18C and P92. However, they can be an effective aid in the initial stages of a game when most players are without proper weap
The vehicles in PUBG also have minor boosts that allow them to go faster, which makes them handy if a player is trying to escape from a hostile area. Overall, PUBG’s vehicle are more than just fun to drive; they are realistic and help
Being able to effectively switch between these two styles of play will make for an excellent PUBG player and truly separate a player from a novice one. Being able to utilize the most common weapon in the game will surely provide some exciting and satisfying wins over players who are unable to use its true potent
Fortnite has a smaller map, which should make it more intense. However, that honor goes to PUBG , whose maps are nearly twice as large as Fortnite’s. As a result, matches in PUBG last longer than the ones in Fortnite . But that doesn’t mean they are boring. PUBG gives players tools to hide, so it’s not uncommon for a player to traverse slowly only to get taken out by a sniper or try to get across the map faster by driving an attention-drawing J
Sure, the core gameplay serves up a decent portion of enjoyability for those who simply want to dive in and do battle against others, as patience and persistence with figuring out the mechanics of PUBG on PS4 typically results in a more satisfying time each go-round. That said, the decisions behind specific control scheme choices for the DualShock 4 seem odd, and periodically makes for a needlessly steep learning curve. This is particularly evident in scenarios such as a tap of the Square button picking up and equipping items in the field, but needing to be held down in order to reload. Furthermore, holding L2 causes one to aim in third-person, while tapping that trigger will give players a first-person iron sights view, which is incredibly difficult to adapt to, much less master. Therefore, it's highly recommended to give Training Mode a try first before playing an actual ma
While PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is far from the first Battle Royale game to exist, its early access release on PC during the first quarter of 2017 unquestionably kick-started a resurgence of the genre. Ever since then, myriad developers have been keen to introduce a bunch of different takes on this type of survival and last-man-standing gameplay. For example, Activision and Treyarch brought Blackout to Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 , Red Dead Online introduced its own unique Battle Royale game mode called "Make It Count", and of course, Epic Games found massive success in turning Fortnite 's Battle Royale into a free-to-play phenomenon. Now, with PUBG 's arrival on PlayStation 4 having occurred nearly two years after its introduction to the masses, it begs the question of whether or not the game is actually a necessity for Battle Royale fans on PS4, or a perfunctory shooter that made its leap onto the Sony console far too l
