    it's okay. bit overpriced and unoptimized but this wasn't meant for mainstream

    Alright, so I've bought this game for 18$ (regional prices and all that), and by selling every lootcrate i get for three months, i got the whole price for the game back on my steam account. So I guess it is fun enough to keep me grinding for ingame coins to get lootcrates, and sometimes you die because of lag.

    Has alot of potential, but it is badly executed, nearly broken i'd say
    Horrible optimization!!!!!
    Update: I feel it runs a lot better at this day
    While it is still flawed, it is an absolute blast at its core.

    I like the way that Polygon described the game: "Perfectly Imperfect". PUBG may not be the first Battle Royale style game, and the idea was obviously taken from the film, but it is the game that revolutionized and popularized the genre, much like DOTA and LoL for the MOBA genre.

PUBG may not be the first Battle Royale style game, and the idea was obviously taken from the film, but it is the game that revolutionized and popularized the genre, much like DOTA and LoL for the MOBA genre.

    The premise is simple enough, and the maps are large enough that even though you're literally doing the same thing every game, there's plenty of variety. I think how much fun you have in this game depends on how you want to play it. Hot jumps can sometimes be fun, but I've enjoyed being tactical and playing the long game, crawling through the grass, trying to be stealthy. There's a lot of different play styles you can use, and you're forced to switch that up depending on where the circle takes you.

    The game has come a long way since it's early access release this past March. But a 1.0 release does not mean it's a completed product, which is why I'm taking off points. There are plenty of bugs, server issues, rubberbanding, etc that will keep this game from getting a perfect score. I hope those will be ironed out over time as we would hope for any game. But, in the mean time, I'm going to keep having a blast playing a game that has vastly improved since its launch.

    Playing with friends whether it's duos or teams adds a whole other layer to the game that has kept me entertained plenty a night. What it comes down to, for me, is if I'm having fun. I was having fun in March. I'm still having fun now.    … Expand

    I advise one to take the influx of negative user reviews with a grain of salt (or possibly an entire dump-truck full of salt, since these reviewers seem to be loaded with it), as this appears to be another case of a very vocal and dissatisfied minority (a la the user reviews for The Last Jedi).

While this game certainly has its fair share of issues, it is literally impossible for this game to be as bad as some users are claiming it to be while enjoying the popularity that it does. Otherwise, why would it be so popular? (As I write this review, the game currently has nearly one million players online.) This game delivers a unique gameplay experience that will never truly be copied, only emulated (e.g. H1Z1, and the new PvP multiplayer in Fortnite). It successfully captures an old concept, the Battle Royale, and translates it into a digestible and rewarding videogame formula. However all of its notoriety and potential for fun does not excuse the fact that this game is laden with bugs and poor optimization. These issues can mostly be traced to the game's origin as a mod for ARMA 3. If you are willing to overlook some laziness on the part of the developers, then you will often be rewarded with an addicting, engaging and memorable gameplay experience. Frustration with the aforementioned issues is understandable and should be anticipated. Your gameplay experience will certainly be mixed (some matches are just going to be crap), but the issues are not always game-ruining.… Expand

    PUBG is a great game with few big cons.
    If you want to play comfortably you need really good computer with good GPU.
    optimization sucks. Seriously even good PC might fall below 60 fps. Also is not much content in game, so if you don't like basic game there is nothing else to do. Another con i see is randomness.

    When this game does something right, it excels at it. The gameplay is some of the most fun I've had in a long time. The one thing this game lacks at is reward system. Repetive loot boxes are not good enough for me to keep playing.

    It's still in early access for the XBONE, which is the platform I play on. While the adrenaline rush of the final circle and the pulse-pounding engagements you can get into either alone or with a squad are rewarding... there is much left to be desired. Frame-rate drops in shoot-outs can lead to your bullets equating to NERF darts while your enemy blows you away like Pacino's Tony Montana.It's still in early access for the XBONE, which is the platform I play on.

Frame-rate drops in shoot-outs can lead to your bullets equating to NERF darts while your enemy blows you away like Pacino's Tony Montana. Vehicles can hit small, invisible impediments that doom you and your entire crew if you're not careful... which you can't be, because the spots you'll run into are INVISIBLE. The gun selection is pretty solid; everyweapon has it's use, although melee tools hardly see any action unless you choose to drop into a hot zone, which I personally avoid. The network and "rubber-banding" lag are much better due to weekly patches, but it can still plague you at the most inopertune times, and the time it takes for structures, weapons and gear to load in after a drop can mean the difference between life and death.

    It's an addicting and rewarding game when you don't lag... but you will; that's the issue.    … Expand

    Woods update behind Mansion location on Erangel was awesome! Sanok is beautiful and fast paced! Miramar is a nice change of scenery.

    Guns 'look' genuine!

    ANTI-CHEAT seems to be working great!

    --------------------------------

    CONS:
    Ruggered, rough, frustrating, unoptimized that feeling of hope slowly diminishing after major and annoyingly obvious issues are still present each week. Another sad case of devs seem more concerned about quick $ than creating a true masterpeice that would naturally generate $$$ for along time. Get your A into G bluehole.

    Should not of left BETA. The PRE-CHRISTMAS cash grab for xbox was unsavoury, distasteful and disgusting!

    Not a whole lot of uniqueness around the map seemingly most of it is copy & paste especially Erangel so much unused and repetative buildings/spaces/environments.

    Not alot of arsenal/attachment options/diversity for wepons and especially armor.

    SKINS: Utilizes a gambling type system that feeds on losers, incredibly inappreciable chance of getting the unique skins while shoving colossal amounts of the same s**t into your inventory.

    --------------------

    HOPES:

    Would L0VE a HARDCORE FP mode, No UI, no player kill confirm/count/killfeed, increased bullet damage, stamina and magazine management.

    Pretty please make VSS spawn with either a PSO-1 scope (sniping) or a OKP-7 (CQB combat)

    Hopes night matches will not be broken. Attachable flashlights/laser designator to guns? Night vision in crates? (night vision goggles give off a green glow faintly seen by other players paying attention so they wouldnt be OP)

    Hopes campaign/story and zombie modes being refreshing and different.

    --------------------

    Game is definitely worth buying almost endless fun/frustration.

Bu açıdan da 2 tür oyuncuya da hitap ediyor. Son yıllarda çıkmış en iyi oyunlardan bir tanesi olduğunu düşünüyorum.

    Not a bad game by any means, but the loot distribution is horrible and relies on luck when you first start a match. It has clunky controls that you'd see in a game like Arma 2 or DayZ that puts even seasoned gamers like myself through a loop.

    The whole madness around PUBG is well-deserved. This is the best possible praise for this great battle-royale-genre shooter. What a pity there are so many bugs, mad vehicle physics and occasional cheaters, but it bothers you only for a while. When you frantically get into the hectic, slightly frightening struggle for life and death you’ll forget anything else.
