Shockingly, the test did not go here well for Apex Legends . The test was conducted on the PC version of each of these games at multiple times in the day between two players on the same server with a ping of about 25 milliseconds each. At the end of the day, Apex Legends featured the highest amount of network delay (highest, shortest, and average numbers) between the damage, gunfire, and movement categories. Black Ops 4 's Blackout followed next with slightly better numbers but overall much higher than what would be considered normal. Fortnite ultimately came back with the smallest network lag numbers with both Ring of Elysium and PUBG close beh

Nothing about the Special Projects division is really known at this point beyond the philosophy that's at play behind its creation. Greene has indicated that the division is meant to explore future possibilities within gaming that don't really exist currently, stating that the division would focus on creating new technologies and gameplay. Greene has also suggested that he already has a number of ideas for what these focuses should be, and that the creation of the division is to take one of the progenitor's of the battle royale genre's ideas and to make them reality. With PUBG 's popularity waning, now seems like a good time for Greene to step back and try something new outside of that sph

"The notification falls in two parts. One is the person who is playing the game is liable for notification violation. At the same time, people who are aware that they are playing PUBG and still not communicating this to the authorities are also liable for an equal amount of violati

It can be used on Sniper Rifles like the M24 or AWM to switch from the long-range 8x scope to a much more up-close-and-personal red dot sight. It's not guaranteed to make you better at quickscoping, but it may help you out in a pinch if your enemy is too close for comf

Greene would later add that he's also " done the killing thing ," which seems to indicate that the creator is also exploring games with a much less violent focus than the title that he made his name off of. If Greene is done with battle royale, he's certainly left a lasting impression on the genre already. PUBG was one of the first titles in the genre to illustrate just how much potential it had, and even if it has since fallen out of favor because of the success of Fortnite and Apex Legends , the latter two games owe their current popularity to the groundwork PUBG laid before t

In an interview conducted with GamesIndustry.biz , Greene was asked about his current position within the company and what his stance was moving forward with games like PUBG and the battle royale genre as a whole. Greene indicated that he believed the team behind PUBG is more than prepared to thrive in his absence, which gave him the chance to announce the Special Projects division. When prompted about the state of battle royale in general, though, and his position on it, Greene gave a response that may shock fans of his w

Brendan "PlayerUnknown" Greene, the creator behind PUBG _ , has officially left the battle royale genre behind in pursuit of a new direction and the potential of other, less-explored genres. The creative mind behind _PUBG recently left his position at the game's studio in favor of heading a new internal division called PUBG Corp's Special Projects divis

Perhaps a long-overdue revamp of the game's original map will help entice players back, even if it's for nostalgia's sake. A new version of PUBG 's first map, Erangel, has been in the works since March of this year, and developer PUBG Corp released a video earlier today showcasing the progress that's been made. It's less noticeable than its counterparts because PUBG has always had a more realistic presentation, but there are some clear graphical updates that make the map much more visually appealing, even if it does suffer from the traditional browns, greens, and greys aesthetic that many apocalypse-inspired shooters embr

PUBG is getting up there in age for a battle royale title , especially given the speed with which the market for these games fluctuates. Revisiting some old magic isn't a bad idea, but it does seem to ignore the much deeper problem of needing a fundamental design change to keep up with the games that PUBG inspired. Those titles have the benefit of fixing what PUBG did sub-optimally and innovating, and with so many iterations of that, now it's **PUBG ** 's turn to see if it can turn back the clock and refresh the game enough to become a stalwart of battle royale streaming once m

While PUBG 's addition of the DCEU Joker & Harley Quinn skins is an obvious nod to competitor Fortnite 's Infinity War event earlier this summer, there are a few differences that make PUBG 's decision much more of an issue for fans. First, unlike Fortnite , which is free-to-play, PUBG costs $29.99, which means the Joker and Harley Quinn skins cost nearly as much as the full game. Second, Fortnite 's crossover event happened during the summer the movie launched, while PUBG 's partnership with Suicide Squad comes two years after the movie was in theat
