Apr 23, 2018Register at metacritic just for this comment:
2 things ruined this game completely:
1) cheaters, many, many, many cheaters
2) wery, wery, wery bad network code - you hit enemy 5 times??? - Hah, no, enemy already killed you 2 sec ago. -
Dec 23, 2017General Idea of this game is extremely fresh and great. This will be a new Genre of Games, but PUBG will not be on the forfront of this Genre. The developers cant handle this game.
1.0 Release and still a lot of Bugs, Crashes and Server Problems.
EU Servers even went out for 6 hours, its a mess. -
Dec 30, 2017This terrible trash Day-Z-wanna-be game is toxic to the game community and should be banned.
-
Dec 26, 2017Game idea is prefect , game play is good , the problem is on servers and bugs rollback , i hope you work on it , we spend about 30$ to buy the game + buy a new pc to play in good condition , i also hope you optimize the game to play with more fps . Thanks

Feb 2, 2018This game has way too much lag and server issues. It is updated often but I can't get past the fact that it's only popular because a bunch of streamers caught on to it. It's more of a fad game that will fade away and not be remembered. I ended up refunding this game after a few hours of playing.
-
Dec 22, 2017¿Esto es un videojuego? Más bien parece una demo técnica de 2006. Aburridísimo y carente de cualquier aspecto positivo imaginable. La mecánica de juego es tediosa. Un desastre sobrevalorado.
-
Dec 23, 2017the game came out because it did not want to drown in the **** EA, the problems with the game and the servers remained, it would be time to leave the Hype train,which launched the corrupt streamers, and Brendan Green to leave the sinking ship, as did Dean Hall with Dayz

Jan 8, 2018Don't believe the hype. It's a janky, messy game and I wish I'd bought it directly through Steam so I could refund it (which is what you should do if you want to try it).
-
Jan 1, 2018This game is OK. It feels and plays like a beta version. All of the assets appear to be from the unity store. The game is very poorly optimized and needs a decent bit of hardware to run well consistently.
Much of the game play is avoiding other players which can be fun... if you ever run into any, the maps are WAY too large for how many people are on the map. -

Apr 14, 2018Most overrated game of history.
Bugghy as hell, super poorly optimized and that game is most about luck (~80%) then skill.
Idiocrazy is the only logical reason I find for its gigantic success. -

Nov 18, 2018Pros: Great realistic graphics and lightning. Great sound - gun shots, foot steps, etc. Also sometimes it's quite fun to play.
Cons: Game is hardcore. Damage model is way too hard. It takes very little time to kill or to be killed. I think it's the main purpose why Fortnite became much more popular.
I think they should add kind of an arcade mode to make the game less harder to master. -
Apr 29, 2018This game is not good its still buggy and is very boring the game is literaly the bane of boring open world games and its very hard to find others and theres the stupid barrier and its a waste of money just play any other multiplayer games
-
Feb 23, 2018как можно расхваливать игру в которой столько читаков?
-
Jan 9, 2018Playerunkown's Battlegrounds is a bad quality mess. I just hate this game because it is very boring and stupid. There is no need for a sqill in shooters,everything is randomize. It have a bad graphic,bad control,bad gameplay. Everything in this game is bad.
-
Mar 23, 2018I love this game. Every game is different and there is nothing wrong with it. But the servers are not the best tho. That is Why I give pubg a 9/10!

Feb 16, 2018Good idea, possibly the worst execution. Wish a competent studio made this game.

Mar 28, 2018Best game ever! Way more realistic than **** Guns actually take skill to shoot.
-
Apr 8, 20181 - Manage the hackers or BLOCK CHINA REGION!
2 - STOP putting more and more useless crap in the game, and making new (bad) maps before you fix IMPORTANT stuff!
3- PLEASE! -
Jul 11, 2018It used to be a good game but not now. It's now full of micro transactions, servers are bad and I myself feel the lack of MMR. Also with 1070, sometimes the frame rate drops to 50. I do not recommend you to buy this game now. Maybe they fix it later.

Nov 15, 2018While I love the idea, it's still missing many things like ballbanging or a proper use of netcode. Very annoying to be matched with people that their ping is 100+, makes it unplayable. While stability and general performance was improved a bit, it's still a long way to go through.
-
Nov 22, 2018Ha mejorado bastante desde su salida, pero aun así, se sigue haciendo repetitivo a veces.
Recomendado solo si juegas con amigos. -

Mar 16, 20190 out of 10! There is no optimization, there are a lot of cheaters, but playing is pretty boring. Absolutely not deserved popularity and the worst waste of money.

Dec 22, 2017Have you ever wanted to play a game that has all the problems of an early access game with it no longer being an early access game?
LOOK NO FURTHER THAN THIS! -
Dec 23, 2017This game separate two types of gamers. A type of rich gamers, they have a high performance PC. And the rest of the gamers, who has a normal - low performance PC. In some game, that's what make difference between the winner and the losers.
-
Apr 16, 2018There's a steep learning curve if you are new but the game is easy to understand and play. First person mode works well and the guns feel and sound good but the hackers and grass despawning through scope need to be dealt with.

Dec 22, 2017This game is straight up salty garbage.
People are going nuts over the fact its 'come out of early access' but really it hasn't. It still runs like early access, it still looks like early access and it still crashes like early access.
Avoid this **** -
Dec 23, 2017This game attracts the same people that play Call of Duty so see PUBG as an Island that keeps those players out of our good games and keeps them out of our vision. I'm grateful for that. As for the game; the score should tell you everything you need to know; it's a giant pile of crap making horrible Western devs rich.

Jan 3, 2018on paper this game is good... the reality is if you want to die from an heart attack because you were looting a building and opened a bathroom door to then find a guy camping in the bath and shotgun you and scare the **** out of you then this is the game for you and also walking simulator 2017
-
Mar 26, 2018This is my favorite FPS of all time. It hits on all points - Good game play, good graphics, realistic weapons and vehicles. Don't listen to the haters, this game is amazing.
-
Dec 23, 2017it's okay. bit overpriced and unoptimized but this wasn't meant for mainstream
-
Mar 13, 2018Although undeniably fun an unique (for now) PUBG is crippled by poor optimization and under-development. A brilliant idea that will ultimately be usurped by larger, more experienced studios

Jan 5, 2018This game has of course some problems, that doesn't mean that it's nto fun...i play on pc and have 6 hours, i know its not mutch but its enough to have an idea of this awesome game.

Jan 16, 2018It's quite a good game. However, operational unreliability is destroying all of its merits.
This game will eventually fail because of cheater. -
Jan 21, 2018Game would be great if it didn't have so many server issues. Constant rubber-band, especially early into matches, frame-rate drop on the new maps. It just ruins the experience of what could otherwise have been a great game.
-
Jan 23, 2018Waste of time and money. Non stop lagging servers and it's full of cheating people taking advantage of third party software like zero recoil macros.
Great idea worked out completely below average. Even an indy developer would be ashamed of such a poorly developed product. -
Feb 5, 2018Why does Metacritic hide the real comments by people who actually play the game?
When you click Games>PC you only see what the critics say. You have to hunt down the truth on this website.

Feb 25, 2018The game definitely needs work but it's addictive af. Great game! Dropping at the school or Pecado
-
Feb 27, 2018Really nice game to spend your time, but there is few problems(cheaters bugs and few sound problems, that really affect the game-play)
-
Mar 16, 2018It is beta..... 50% of all time this game don`t work. Too bad and lazy programmist work with code for this game. Looks liek all this bugs will be never resolved. I recommend to investor just fired all this stupid team. Idea is no bad, but team who made this game is fuc#ing sh|t
-
Mar 18, 2018There are a lot of reasons why this game shouldn't have a 10. But honestly I like this game a lot despite the problems it has. Nothing is perfect. I have tons of fun while playing and have made some gaming buddies along the way.

Jan 26, 2018The concept is great.
The atmosphere is amazing.
The gun play is good enough.
The bugs are rampant.
There are hackers.
The server tick rate is abysmal.
Players get an advantage by playing on the lowest settings, no grass to hide in...
In the end i still enjoyed myself, but if you're like me, pick this up on sale and only if you have friends to play with. -
Feb 26, 2018Could be sublime, but riddled with bugs and infested with cheats like no other online shooter I have ever known.

Jul 4, 2018A literal pile of sh*t. Do not recommend. A shame to the gaming industry that just wants to milk the money out of you. The devs don't give a sh*t about the community. Really hope this game dies soon.

May 3, 2018No playable at this momment. WTF? Dudes with milions of dollars doesn't know how to optimize the game?
-
Jun 3, 2018Has 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. -

May 6, 2018I think that this is truly a unique game and I would recommend that if you are a fan of this type of genre then I think you should give this game a try.
-
Apr 27, 2018Sorry, but the gunplay is bad, the graphics is a joke and there is absolutely no reason or mativation to Play this Thing.
It looks like a game from 15 years ago, and while I am not fixated on graphics, this is just too terrible to be played in 2018.
And the gunplay is very wobbly and outdated. -
Jan 10, 2018This game has a split personality, it swings wildly from being nothing but irritating and frustrating to being the most exciting game you have ever played.. My advice, play it with someone either in squads or in a duo with voice communication.. it it much better then going in solo..

Sep 25, 2018Basically a worse version of Fortnite, there's no reason you buy it to be sincerely honest.
It has everything you hate about Fortnite (Including the fanbase) and more. If you buy it, you are a pigeon. -
Feb 6, 2018Sehr kompetetiv, jedoch von Bugs übersäht und in den teilweise riesigen Patches werden Sachen eingeführt die niemand braucht. Die Grafik ist toll sowie auch der generelle Druck der auf einem Spieler lastet da man nie weiß ob man sicher ist.
-
Jan 16, 2018A fun game definitely, but covered in gross micro-transactions and dung beetles for bugs.
-
Feb 28, 2018A perfectly viable time-waster. A fun game to play with friends, provided that the long loading times, loads of bugs and glitches, and the toxic community don't deter you.
-
Feb 13, 2018Как и любую другую он-лайн игру, портят читеры. Здесь они полным ходом набирают обороты. Игра хорошая, графика, все мне нравится. Только анти чит работает отвратительно! Уже в наглую на ютуб видео с читами выкладывают.
-
Feb 18, 2018I didn't mind it. But I have to make this long because I cant submit this until it's long.

Apr 24, 2018The 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.
