Here is a fundamental tip, do not hoard items in your backpack. What it means is do not spam the pick button on everything and anything in sight. Doing so will mostly result in accessing the inventory more times than aver

Over the past few months in particular, the word banned has become common in Gaming censorship headlines. While many bans are related to content creators, game companies and even governments have also jumped on the banning bandwa

Assault rifles sort of fill this weird limbo within PUBG. They aren't exactly good for long-range fights like sniper rifles are, but they also aren't better than other weapons for close-range combat. So what do we make of these weapons? If they aren't designed for long or close-range combat what is their purpose? And the answer is that they aren't meant to fill both and some middle gro

The players can jump out of the plane anytime at the beginning of every game. However, this can also be used to the advantage, especially if playing Solo . Most of the players jump together and pick a specific location. On the contrary, if a site is not decided beforehand, players can wait and see how people are jumping

Competition in video games has been a part of the system since the very beginning. We've come a long way from the 2D world of pong with bare minimum depth to real-time 3D battles happening in front of our screens. And if there is one game that has impacted the multiplayer in this generation, it is PUBG . The game is released on almost all major platforms by now and has become a cult classic alre

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

The reaction was so swift and extreme even Jeff Kaplan spoke out against it and Reddit started a movement to #BoycottBlizzard . Amid the chaos, it was also discovered that Hearthstone forum users speaking out have been slapped with 1000 year bans . O

Unlike shotguns, Assault rifles can function as decent to extremely powerful mid to long-range weapons. Solidifying it as a much better weapon to rely on, even if it doesn't excel at close-range as shotguns do. Similarly, Sniper rifles are only really useful for long to mid-range combat, using a sniper at close range is always a death sentence, unless your aim is spectacular. This is where assault rifles establish superiority over the Sniper, while it is better at long range, it doesn't compare to the assault rifles util

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

Unfortunately, that thrill is marred by bad interface designs that make looting and managing inventory painful and dangerous, given that you can be shot while navigating tabs and manually moving things around while trying to loot or mod a weapon. The devs did minimal work in translating the game to console controllers, and didn't take any of the learnings from other games that do this bet

Yet, as player numbers dropped and competition became more prominent, Bluehole finally caved to audience demands and removed the ability to search for games by region. While it was a well-received—albeit incredibly late—gesture, it did relatively little to stem the torrent of cheaters plaguing Western servers. Players can easily use a VPN service to artificially switch regions, and there are similar workarounds for the ping lock restriction. Things may be a little better than they once were, but aim-botting, unkillable cheaters sporting triple-digit ping figures are still fairly common in most ar

The Xbox version of the game, a half-baked port of a PC title which isn't well optimized as is on its lead platform, still runs poorly even on the powerful Xbox One X. Its fundamental gameplay mechanics are clunky and subpar compared to any other notable shooter, and it looks dated. Skip forward a year, and now PlayStation 4 players can experience the same disappointment and bugs. Little has changed, and shockingly, PUBG on PS4 is the worst version of the g
