Red Dead Redemption II has a pretty bleak and confusing opening. I had no idea it was going to start with your gang being stranded in the mountains, deep in cold snow, and on the brink of being wiped out. Aside from the atmosphere, it's also just kind of dull and drawn out. This tempered my excitement for the game and I kept telling myself "this is going to get good" just to keep myself going. It's not the worst opening 2-3 hours of a game, but it was a letdown, to say the le

Finally, the Steam Community post from PUBG Corps also detailed that the developer is working on is a region lock-esque system for improving network performance for players in-game. Specifically, the system would only connect players from that region to connect and play, and regions would be invisible to players residing in other regions (excluding players that team up from opposite regio

Developer PUBG Corps has released patch notes for the latest update of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on PC, with update #8 incorporating several notable changes, with the biggest being a brand new weapons skins system that allows players to customize their guns, and the introduction of two new Crates with new cosmetic it

While the wildly-popular Battle Royale game is now available on the go , PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is still seeing its original PC version getting significant new updates and additions, with the latest PC update dropping some new customization options for players to enjoy with weapon sk

In addition to the new skins system in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds that will provide players some flexibility in customizing their characters' appearance, the update also introduces some new options for earning cosmetic items through the Triumph and Raider crates. The Triumph crates can only be opened by purchasing a Weapon Cosmetic Key, while the Raider crates can be opened for free from players that earn them in-g

Yes, you can miss missions. Now that may make sense if your caravan moves to a new area, or if a character, the quest giver, passes away. Those seem obvious, but there was one that didn't seem so obvious. In chapter three, I had two yellow missions as well as a white mission that said Abigail wanted to talk to me. Well when I did one of the yellows, Abigail’s disappeared, which was weird because it seemingly had nothing to do with what I just did. That's just the one I caught. Did I miss more before t

Video game companies often try to market a companion app for their games. I don't know if they're just trying to cross promote something that will get phone users to generate traffic, or if the developers legitimately got behind this thing as a useful service. Red Dead Redemption II's is on the latter half. It's actually useful, which is something I ignored until my friend messaged me and told me to check it out. It's a great way to use the

In addition to the new map, the patch itself also covers a lot of other ground as far as new items, features, and updates. Specifically, the update includes a new weapon exclusive to the Sanhok map in the QBZ95, a new assault rifle that is meant to take the place of the SCA

Over on the game's Steam Community page, developer PUBG Corp has revealed the patch notes for the PC version's update #15, which will bring over the brand new Sanhok map, which was available in testing for several weeks, over to the live ser

Let’s say you do want a more up close and personal type of Ethical Gameplay though. Well PUBG has you covered on that as well. The game has all different kinds of events that take place periodically and mix things up a bit. The Tequila Sunrise mode, where the only weapons available are shotguns and melee weapons, completely alters how you play because you have to be within close range to do any damage. This usually results in chaotic firefights. War Mode sets three teams of ten players against each other at designated areas of the map and is similar to the standard team deathmatch. Metal Rain multiplies squads by two and features eight-player teams. The ever-rotating set of events always offer a refreshing change when you might not want to play the normal battle royale mode. While these modes do provide a nice change of pace, I always come back to what PUBG got so right the first time aro

PlayerUnkown's Battlegrounds isn’t the best-made game in the world, visually. It also doesn’t run particularly well -- a fact that developers made light of in their recent Inside Xbox Live at Gamescom showcase. We are eight months past the official release of Version 1.0, and the battle royale game is still riddled with bugs on PC; that's not even mentioning the Xbox One version, which is finally coming out of Early Access . In fact, PUBG Corporation, the developers behind the game, literally created a website entitled fix.pubg.com that outlines their roadmap for updates that will better optimize the performance of the title. There are a lot of unignorable issues that understandably drive players a
