With the full release of the game, the developers have cleaned up the menu system a bit and navigation is noticeably quicker.The third match was much better than the previous ones, as I managed to carefully drive around on a motorbike until fewer than 10 players remained.
The next time, I was slowly killed off for not staying within the rescinding play area boundaries. Such is life while playing PUBG, though you can improve your chances by reading through our collection of tips for dominating the battlegrounds. ![]() Player Unknown Battlegrounds Osx License It ToBrendan Greene, known by his call tag PlayerUnknown, created the Battle Royale concept as a mode for Arma 2 and 3, before going on to license it to Sony Online Entertainment for use in H1Z1. Afterwards, he became the Creative Director at Bluehole Studio, the developer of PUBG and fantasy RPG, Tera. Basically, the game had a following before it even existed on its own, which is one potential explanation for its success, though this is not at all to diminish its newfound popularity. PUBGs concurrent player base currently hovers around 3 million users, and the games closing in on almost 27 million downloads as I write this, according to SteamSpy, a prediction engine used to estimate such metrics for Steam games. These numbers are particularly impressive, considering that PUBG technically just launched on PC in December of 2017, after an extended, playable beta period. In addition to much-anticipated content updates, such as a match replay mode and a vaulting system, the developers have also sent out multiple stability patches for both platforms. For the PC, integrated graphics chips arent sufficient to run PUBG, but the requirements of at least a Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 or an AMD Radeon HD 7650 are reasonable. I had no trouble running the game smoothly on high settings at 1080p using an RX 580 and Ryzen 1700X combination, so any mid- to high-end GPU and CPU pair should be more than adequate. The Xbox One release supports the consoles HDR capabilities, as well as other enhancements in future releases. Most of the customization here is standard fare, but to make your character stand out, you need to unlock accessory packs with in-game Battle Points (BPs) that you earn from matches. However, make sure you are happy with your choices since you wont be able to edit your character again unless you part ways with 3,000 BPs. It takes a while to collect any significant amount of BPs, though you get more by making it further into a match and damaging the competition. For reference, I played about 10 matches before earning the 700 BPs needed to unlock the first accessory pack. However, PUBG doesnt settle into the genre norms. ![]() For example, you get to choose where to parachute down on the map, everyone starts without a weapon, and theres a deadly and giant shimmering blue dome that reduces the playable area every so often. Also, there are random bomb raids from above, a wide selection of land and water vehicles to commandeer, and a vast and detailed map free to scavenge. ![]() You can also choose between first-person and third-person camera views, which can affect how well you see other players in your periphery. According to the PUBG Wiki, additional game modes may include five-person team battles on a smaller scale map, and a War mode, a 30-minute free-for-all type match with respawns after early access concludes. I wish there were plans for massive 50-player team-based skirmishes or a capture the flag mode since I think PUBG has the technical capability, player base, and map size to pull either of those off well.
