Beyond this, the devs also hinted at the eventual addition of new weapons and a Tuk Tuk vehicle. For those unaware, Tuk Tuks are three-wheeled vehicles common to Thailand. They're basically an auto-rickshaw, named for the sound their engines make and are commonly employed as taxis and delivery vehicles. Now that a major vehicle bug has been resolved across all the game's platforms, their eventual implementation will likely be a smooth
While the lawsuit is one to watch given that it could have significant implications regarding other PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds clones, this isn't the only reason why people are talking about it. In an excerpt of the lawsuit, PUBG Corp. also admits that the game's cosmetics affect gameplay. The quote from the developer re
The use of item trading in CS:GO has always been something of a shady ground for Valve, and sometimes the grey areas of how it functions have been manipulated and taken advantage of by prominent CS:GO players and YouTubers. As such, it was only a matter of time before Valve acted on the matter, particularly given CS:GO 's place in the larger discussion around how deep loot box problems go in the industry, but the company may have wanted to act a little quicker, and perhaps in a way that didn't cause such a backlash from play
Dr DisRespect's stream ended up hitting a pretty major figure, breaking the record for the highest number of concurrent viewers in Twitch history and earning major subscriber numbers and donations throughout. At its peak, Dr DisRespect managed to bring in 388,000 viewers, pipping the previous record of set by League of Legends streamer Tyler1 in his own return to the service following a ban from League developer Riot Games. Although there claims that Tyler1 hit over 400,000 viewers, Twitch has confirmed that Dr DisRespect is now the record holder . With that in mind, it's no wonder that Twitch was struggling a little under the l
Meanwhile, competitor Epic Games is touting more new modes, another new season of content and a mobile version of Fortnite which will support cross-play with PC and PS4 versions of the game. It's that rapid development, lack of loot box gambling, lack of hackers, and great communication with the community that's helping Fornite takeover PU
"Clothing does affect gameplay in terms of camouflage. Clothing can be used to assist the player to blend in with the environment, making the player less visually detectable. In particular, Battlegrounds includes a Ghillie suit, a full body suit covered with camouflaging material typically used by snipers. The Ghillie suit allows the player to become nearly visually invisible depending upon the terra
It's not the only time that Twitch has faced difficulties when demands are made by a high number of users. Last August, Twitch had some major outages , with the service stuck down for several hours with only intermittent access. As the site grows larger and larger, no doubt the service will aim to stop these issues from cropping up again, particularly when dates that are likely to put a major strain on the service can be easily identif
The developer goes on to note that in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , players must "visually detect" other players because of the lack of player indicators seen in other shooter games. PUBG Corp. is using this particular section of the lawsuit to assert that games like Rules of Survival have also ripped off the style of cosmetics offered by PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds . These cosmetic similarities, the developer appears to suggest, should be taken seriously because they actively impact the core, PUBG gameplay experience. It also argues that the visual design of these cosmetics is a "protectable" w
Nonetheless, this latest iteration of Counter-Strike has not been without its issues over the years, and one noticeable problem is the use of item trading. Trading in CS: GO is effectively a mini-economy in its own right, with some players cashing in on earned skins for big payoffs, while there are ongoing concerns over the use of skins as a virtual currency for online gambling. Eventually, Valve decided enough was enough and has implemented changes, with a recently-traded item now stuck in a seven day cool down before it can be moved on ag
Loot boxes! More loot boxes ! Locked loot boxes! Selling loot boxes! Cheating for loot boxes! This has been the story of **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** for a few months since developer PUBG Corp (a division of Bluehole) has slowed down on making their flagship game bet
This smaller map is apparently an effort by developers to make PUBG faster paced. The game's attempt at world domination stepped up a notch recently with the release of PUBG collectibles Mobile for iOS and Android. While the graphical quality and controls obviously took something of a hit, the game runs surprisingly well on mobile and drawn yet more players into PlayerUnknown's Battleground web. The game also proved to be a big hit on Xbox One despite numerous gameplay issues and player complai
