PUBG Region-Locked China But It Hasn t Brought Players Back

From WarhammerWorkshop


PUBG has brought a whole new meaning to the word sterile. Even today the game looks like an earlier edition of Call of Duty that was stripped down to it's barest of bones. The only personality it has that comes to mind is the iconic level three helmet and the frying pan, but there's not much more than t


M16A4: This assault rifle has a really good range and it can easily blow chunks off your opponent when carefully aimed. It also has the best recoil of all the assault rifles and it's easy to handle. If out of options, there's a good chance to survive an entire match with just this assault rifle on the player's side. Especially when it's dressed up with a nice scope and other compone


If you don’t finish the target in the first two rounds or if the enemy is 10 meters away, then Sawed-off becomes a liability. It has the highest potential damage out of any other handgun, but it also has the lowest effective ra


PUBG is not the first battle royale in the existence of this overblown, saturated genre. But it was without a doubt one of the first to popularize it and shape it into what it is today. Many of the devs for PUBG even worked on the H1Z1 Survival Mode, the game mode that quite literally made the blueprint for modern battle royale. __ So in many rights it's hard not to see that Fortnite rode the coattails of PUBG Cheats, adding a handful of different elements to perfect the game. Still, I've put way more hours into PUBG, but when it comes to the better overall game... you'll just have to decide that for yours


Another SMG making the list, Micro Uzi has been the star of the competitive show in recent times. When it comes to close-combat, Micro Uzi can decimate every other assault rifle in the game. The only downside of the gun is the lack of range and that players need to connect their bullets for better damage as Micro Uzi’s spray is very quick and rapid. The gun is easily available throughout a game, making it a very popular choice amongst high elo play


Fortnite on the other hand reeks of personality, so much so that they were even able to thread a story through all of it's themes. Despite not having reality breaking graphics, it's still just such a fun game to look at and play, and that's a testament to the st


A Chinese redditor recently posted an attempt at explaining the culture surrounding gaming in their home country, and they seem to suggest that, for many of their peers, the ends justify the means when it comes to online gaming. While most Western gamers are apt to feel that a victory is meaningless if they cheated their way to the top, a significant number of gamers in China don’t share those same qua


Among all of this, there are also new and updated weapons to try out. Looking into the best of the heap could certainly be beneficial but, everyone knows that finding effective weapons during a 'Battle Royle' game is kind of like "spinning the wheel of fortune". Even though everyone has their preferences, there's no doubt that certain firearms hold a clear advantage over others. This can also be related to the fact that there are ways to customize firearms and other g


But player counts don't mean everything, and if we're still talking numbers, than PUBG mobile's player count of 400 million truly takes the cake. Statistics finally aside, it's time to tackle the meat and potatoes of these two games and decide which one is a truly battle royale k


M416: Even though not the most ideal with range, the M416 is a solid assault rifle to have on player's backs. It provides enough damage to chip away your opponent's health bar at a brisk pace. The recoil isn't too bad and it's easy to handle. It holds a good amount of ammo in its magazine and it can be a standard choice for any given situat


Most publishers, however, won’t be willing to act on these suggestions. As previously mentioned, the Chinese market is often very lucrative, and region-locking won’t do away with the fundamental issue of cheating. A quarantine of all Chinese players will do nothing but frustrate both standard players and hackers alike in that area, and, should the region’s interest in the game fade because of an artificial blockade, Electronic Arts could stand to lose quite a bit of inco

This initial charm wore thin quick on the obviously unfinished product, with the player base tanking by a hurtful 80% within two weeks. Developer Boss Key Productions would shutter a mere month later, setting the game adrift. Another studio has claimed the rights to the title, but for now, Radical Heights is totally d


Third-person is the standard version of both games, but PUBG takes the gold here with their first-person mode, that quite honestly might be the best way to play. You see, with first-person there just isn't any cheese, you can't see corners that you wouldn't normally see or have blind corner batt


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
