PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , otherwise known as PUBG, released in 2017 to a hardcore audience hungry to see what the evolution of battle royale would be. Thanks to Twitch streamers, a strong connection with the community, and a little bit of experience, Bluehole's PUBG quickly exploded into the latest gaming phenomenon. Since it's release PUBG has had numerous updates that have fixed many common errors with the game and have slowly tried to correct all of the issues the community has. On top of doing this Bluehole has also ported the game to both Xbox One and mobile devices. Microsoft was quick to lock up exclusive rights in the console space, and the mobile version has seen tremendous success. Bluehole has also managed to release a desert themed map on PC that's soon to release on Xbox One. In addition to the desert map, they've also released a smaller map in the Public Test Server in hopes of providing a quicker and more action-packed experience to their tremendous player base. Though there have been numerous competitors that have entered the battle royale market, PUBG is still chugging along providing a more serious and hardcore fan-base with the experience they want. Whether PUBG lasts for the next 5 years, or it loses steam in 2018, it will always be the catalyst for the battle royale genre moving forward. There are plenty of rewards players gain from simply putting in the time to learn about all of the systems and hidden mechanics PUBG has to offer. Let's take a look at 25 things only PUBG super fans would know they could do in the g
While this vehicle can be unpredictable, motorcycles are still a fuel-efficient way to get around the maps. They are lightweight, and can even be used to ride through homes and buildings. If people are feeling lucky, they can even attempt to ride roof-to-roof (which takes a lot of patience and practice for those willing to put in the work). They are also easier to get off of if the vehicle is damaged in some
Noriega's lawsuit was certainly a bizarre one, particularly when he suggested that the game depicted him as „ the culprit of numerous fictional heinous crimes “ including murder. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the lawsuit was thrown out in October 2014, meaning that a potential freedom of speech legal minefield over the depiction of historical figures in games was avoided. That said, don't expect to see Noriega returning in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 's Blackout Mo
Snipers are literally everywhere. Similar to the problem I just mentioned above. People camp in this game. Even though if you do it and get caught, you’ll be called a camper and reported by literal 15-year-olds. Because people love to hide until they are in the top ten before they reveal themselves and then vulture all the best gear, it can be hard to take this game seriously when basically everyone has reverted to playing like t
Players can dive underwater and swim without being seen by other players. Swimming underwater is faster than swimming on the surface, and due to its programming, bullets don't travel through the water. Just remember to keep an eye on your lung meter next to your health bar. Once your lungs turn red you better be near the surface because drowning will make you lose health at an astounding rate. Dying by drowning is more embarrassing than that grenade pin fiasco we talked about earl
_ Fortnite _ has continued to see a meteoric ascent within the gaming world, having even had an impact on gaming industry awards and recognition. Its grasp has extended beyond the realm of gaming, making its mark on society and pop culture as a whole.

Thankfully, Before the Storm , although not perfect, manages to build upon the first game well, providing a rare prequel that manages to subtly enhance the original story t
Some people simply want to watch the world burn. Others just want to make sure other players or teams don't have easy getaway plans. During a PUBG match, a vehicle can make a huge difference in staying ahead of the circle and also making sure you're not eliminated by pure chance after the circle shrinks in the least fortunate way. Players really like to take out the tires of vehicles their not using in hopes of sabotaging other players. It's really easy to do but comes at the cost of ammunition and/or the sound of your gun depending on if it's suppressed. The best way to avoid alerting other players and also not wasting that precious ammo is to simply destroy the tires with your fists. Yes, I did, in fact, say fists. You can use your bare hands or even one of the various melee weapons to pop the tires on random vehicles. It defies all logic but the moment you walk up to a buggy and punch out its tires with your own knuckles is extremely satisfying. It seems that this feature was probably implemented in the game to give some type of balance between a person with a car and someone without a gun. Though this means that the driver has to be oblivious and either parked or driving incredibly s
