PUBG Developer Admits Failing Players; Defends Loot Boxes

Some posts on Reddit agree with him in saying PUBG had it coming. Others say the real problem is that Grzesiek’s punishment isn’t really punishment at all. After watching its player count plummet early this year and continue to dwindle, PUBG wouldn’t want to risk losing one of its star players. While PUBG faces backlash for the discrepancy between how it doles out punishments, Grzesiek doesn’t appear to be affected by the temporary ban. He has begun training for Rainbow Six Siege , a game whose popularity has grown in recent months while PUBG’s continues to shrink. Since he hasn’t met a shooter he can’t master, Grzesiek can switch his sights to another game, secure in the knowledge that he’ll continue creating great footage for his f


Taking all of this into account, it will be interesting to see if Bluehole Studio will be able to successfully implement a permanent Event Pass for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds thanks to the data and feedback it received during its initial limited-time launch. If it does get incorporated correctly down the line, the feature could give PUBG a better shot at expanding its current 400 million-plus player ba


The former esports star has one of the biggest Twitch channels on the site, with over 3 million followers tuning in to watch the skilled shooter rack up kills in PUBG , Fortnite , and other games in the battle royale genre. He is so popular that, in the last month, Grzesiek and fellow Twitch star DrDisRespect partnered up with PUBG to have weapon skins created in their honor, with sales conveniently wrapping a week ago. Grzesiek’s success shows no signs of slowing, even while PUBG finds its numbers drop by over half due to Fortnite’s growing populari


The developers behind **PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ** detailed a new update and admitted to players that they have dropped the ball over the past year. In posts on both the Steam Community forum and subreddit for the game, PUBG ’s developers addressed a number of issues, including concerns regarding loot boxes and continued flow of randomized cosmetics being a priority for the stu


While a lot of the games listed are ones that Sony has been teasing for years (and still haven't released), the biggest news here is arguably Bloodborne 2 , which has become one of From Software's biggest titles outside of the core Dark Souls series. The game received overwhelming praise when it released in 2015, and fans have been wanting a sequel ever since. Plus, there's the long-rumored Devil May Cry 5 and SOCOM: Coalition , as well as a BioShock PSVR title on the


The Los Angeles expo has reined supreme as one of the year’s largest, priciest, and most-watched events for its major gaming industry reveals and teases. Originally, E3 was understood primarily as an insider event for press and publishers in the gaming industry but, as of recently, the convention has opened its doors to the public, with special "Gamer Passes" made available to unaffiliated consumers excited for the demo stations, booths, special events, and more. But before all that happens, the industry's biggest publishers host press conferences and showcases in advance of E3 to unveil their upcoming lineup. Sony's PlayStation press conference is only June 11, but it seems their entire schedule has been leaked alre


It's also unclear how this ban will impact Shroud's upcoming appearance on PUBG's Squad Showdown on July 13, an event PUBG patch Notes Corp is hosting with Twitch Prime in commemoration of Amazon's Prime Day (Twitch is owned by Amazon). Shroud was slated to play in the showdown alongside several other top Twitch streamers, but this temporary ban may put a halt to t


A 4chan user leaked the internal memo, which reveals all the teasers, trailers, and demos Sony PlayStation will be showcasing. The majority of the titles listed on the document are of properties well-known to gamers, such as Death Stranding , The Last of Us Part II , Marvel's Spider-Man , and Ghosts of Tsushima , but there's plenty more for players to get excited about. Other games being shown are the Final Fantasy VII Remake , Resident Evil 2 Remake , MediEvil , Spyro: Reignited Trilogy , Kingdom Hearts 3 , and PlayStation Party . But, what really stands out in this line up are Bloodborne 2 , SOCOM: Coalition , PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , BioShock Resurgence (PSVR), and Devil May Cry


Now that the Sanhok Event Pass is available in-game, players are able to measure exactly how much they need to accomplish in order to progress in the Pass. All challenges, as well as other sources of experience, are available to see and draw conclusions from. And the results are quite disappointing, especially for those who don't want to spend the $9.99 Event Pass price up fr


The video and subsequent response from PUBG has left fans split over whether their frustration should be directed at the brevity of the ban or the underlying problem the game has with cheaters. Hackers frequently appear in matches, messing with actual players in order to advertise their work. The game’s anti-cheat system, BattlEye, announced back in February that they had banned over 1 million players, yet the problem persists. Towards the end of the clip, Grzesiek appeared to address the issue. "It really goes to show that PUBG, full offense to you guys, don’t give a s*** because that guy should have been banned immediately." He doesn't appear to notice the ir
