Trash, shit, filth, garbage, worthless. These are some words that describe this game.
It's unoptimized as fuck and it's basically centered around RNG hoping you get the good loot, then you just camp and snipe.

China is so strong it can make an unfinished mediocre arena shooter the most successful game on Steam within a few months.

Pray they don't start playing MMO porn games on Steam, that's all I'm going to say.

Right now, Fortnite is the most watched game in the world, averaging 139,000 viewers on Twitch every week. As Kotaku's Cecilia D'Anastasio points out, that's double the traffic of PUBG, which had unseated League of Legends just months before.

This puts PUBG in a unique position. Brendan Greene penned a blog post outlining the 2018 roadmap. Most notably that includes a smaller map and a goofy emote system—two tricks pulled directly from the Fortnite playbook. How the tables have turned!

The rest of 2018 is shaping up to be a bloodbath. Already, we've seen the baton passed from H1Z1, to PUBG, to Fortnite—all of which happened within the last year. With new games in the genre on the horizon like The Darwin Project, and rumors swirling about some truly bananas experiments, like a Red Dead Redemption 2 Battle Royale mode, it sure feels like this particular cycle is far from over. One thing we know for sure though: There's only one chicken dinner.

Apparently PUBG is no longer the hottest shit around.

For all the shitposting about PUBG itt, Fortnite makes PUBG look like Counter Strike. It is pure twitch-bait decline.

I'm kinda glad games like this are doing well, it's a neat genre. I've always liked 'full-loot' pvp games and these types cut out the bullshit prerequisite 200 hour grind that rpgs of that type required.

I'd rank the MP FPS genre something like this:

Quake>CS>>PUBG/Fortnite>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>COD>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Overwatch (SHIT GAME FOR CUCKS MADE BY CUCKS)

Please, besides simply being a BAD game, OW is a device for pushing SJW agenda. So it’s like.. Doubly bad. I don’t play that trash but if I did get banned it’d probably be for being a white male or something.

PUBG genre has issues but at least it’s a good idea. I don’t like how much downtime those games have but if they fixed that I’d probably play.

pubg is just counter-strike with added tedium of searching for weapons and without good maps......

counter-strike does everything better and it did it 20 years ago........pubg is just popular because mobile crowd of today doesn't know anything better

PUBG is quite fun with a squad of a few irl mates trolling around.
I play this some nights with a 4 man squad on discord, and yea, its fun. I like the gunplay and I like the exploration parts.

It is what it is.
