PlayerUnknown s Battlegrounds PS4 Review: Ugly And Unfinished

From WarhammerWorkshop


One of Vikendi's most popular areas before the map was pulled from PUBG rotation , the Abbey returns in a slightly altered and much less accessible format here. Previously larger and located in the southern middle of the map, now the Abbey has been moved to the top of Mount Kreznic. Despite its remote location, however, players should seriously consider the Abbey as a great place to either drop in on or swing by on the way to the circle, even if getting there from ground level takes a little longer than it used


There's always a rush in PUBG while landing somewhere, either near enemies or entirely isolated, and scrambling to find a weapon and ammunition for the potential immediate skirmish. When forced to move a great distance to reach the safe zone as the map shrinks, you'll never know if someone in the distance has spotted you until it's potentially too late. And if you're waiting or moving slowly and hear footsteps, there's a unique thrill that PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds offers better than other battle royale experien


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


Engaging in a close-range battle is much easier to grasp. Simply put, adopting a spray and pray attitude can grant players some easy kills due to the full-auto and burst features on most assault rifles. Even without a proper sight attached to the gun players can fire from the hip and effectively take out a pesky enemy in no time. However, doing so can be a waste of precious ammunition and a death sentence for late-game fights. So good advice would be to always have a close to mid-range sight on your weapon to utilize in case an enemy manages to sneak up on you. And try your best to use positional advantage and aiming down your sight to take out the enemy more effectively. This will save players from using up all their ammo and provide a better loadout for late-game fig


There are few places more exciting for the circle to close on than the Cosmodrome. Not only does it look like a scene straight out of the end of one of the old James Bond 007 movies, but there is one of the largest structures ever to dot PUBG's landscape located at the Cosmodrome (an old missile silo, pictured above) which has the potential to see multiple teams on multiple levels firing up and down at each other in may


Season 7 of **PlayerUnknown's BATTLEGROUNDS ** has begun, and in addition to returning players to the snow covered landscape of Vikendi the game also introduces players to a (theoretically) new weapon in the form of the Mosin-Nagant sniper rifle . While some of the changes made to Vikendi's map are drastic, such as the activation of the rail system which allows players a brand-new way to travel across the landscape and the removal of areas like Tovar and Movatra, others are smaller but just as important, such as the fact that there is much, much less snow for players to leave footprints


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


Dinoland is more about style than substance, and while players who have an affinity for SMGs and educationally-backed shootouts will enjoy it, those looking to start the game off a little better prepared should think about going elsewhere. However, Dinoland does provide a great location to start off in, as it's not only adjacent to multiple main roads but also Vikendi's new rail system, ensuring lots of options for on-foot and vehicle movement after the inevitable post-landing shoot


There are generally two different fire rates in PUBG , there is the option of single-shot or rapid-fire. Most assault rifles and submachine guns have the option of single or rapid-fire, but each fire rate has its own utility and purp


Known as **PUBG ** for short, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is a massive PvP competitive shooter that can be played solo, with a friend, or with a squad of four, in first-person and third-person. The goal is to jump from a plane and land somewhere on one of the game's maps, gather weapons and gear, and survive until the end as the playable map area continuously shrinks. It's the go-to formula that every major shooter brand is looking into and its mainstream success started with pubg patch notes - of which Fortnite admittedly copied and made even more popu
