Why such an horrible game is popular?

why such an horrible game is popular?

Because it's more fun and original than any game since minecraft.

Why the fuck do you hate it anyway?

It shows a good, well executed idea from a who tier studio outsells generic AAA rehashes with massive marketing budgets. Don't know about you but I've got fed up of the deathmatch style shooter, and so has everyone else due to how well pubg has sold.

Because it's awesome

>well executed
TOPKEK

If any Sup Forumsedditors here had any friends then they would know the true enjoyment this game gives.

>Because it's more fun and original than any game since minecraft.
Look at this dude
>Why the fuck do you hate it anyway?
oohohoh ohH NO NO NO
>It shows a good, well executed ide from a who tier studio outsells generic AAA rehashes with massive marketing budgets.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

My sides are scraping the peak of Everest

>Because it's more fun and original than any game since minecraft.

original?lol battle arena exist since 2 years kid
fun?what is so fun about 100 players in a map shooting and hiding with no skill and enteirtainment at all?

minecraft it's a well executed idea and a great game that ruin with the time not this shit

>Why the fuck do you hate it anyway?

because it's shit and only kid and streamers play it

>It shows a good, well executed idea from a who tier studio outsells generic AAA rehashes with massive marketing budgets. Don't know about you but I've got fed up of the deathmatch style shooter, and so has everyone else due to how well pubg has sold.

you're baiting here

>take fun formula that has been super popular
>don't fuck it up quite as bad as the other attempts so far

Not hard. People really, really like the genre. It's not a great game but it's literally the only option in the genre because everything else is just incredibly terrible.

Just dropped in to say that you type like a 12 year old.

>Only kids and streamers play it
>2 million players

hmm

>an horrible

...

>WAAAAH MOMMYYYYY

>MAKE THE BAD MAN GO AWAY

Power of the concept.
It's concept is so good that the fact the game is only half-working doesn't even matter. You'd know what I'm talking about if you played it.
And yes, the concept isn't completely original, but pubg is the first promising game with this concept.
Pubg is literally the COD4 of our times, only from a much smaller dev and much less unpolished.

>literally the only option in the genre
ever heard of Fortnite

no matter how hard Sup Forums shills this game it won't become good

It's only inflated because the Chinese cockroaches took a liking to it. People love to spout numbers but don't realize these games are only popular because of the Asian markets.

Same with DOTA2: Russians live and breathe that game. And neither are good games.

>original
Kill yourself, kiddo. No, seriously.

samefag

Man, FUCK PUBG right! Haha! Garbage game!!!!! Popular shit? Hehehea FUCK THAT. TRASH. Overwatch? Lmao, never even PLAYED it (seriously this is my own opinion too) i don't pla BAD game like them!!!!

Also remember skyrim? SHIT GAME FUCK NO BAD. I have good tastes. Anything other people like is bad honestly. Hahah fuckin PUBG dude. Why do normalfags (you can tell i am part of Sup Forums because i say normalfag instead of normie (fuck redditors)) always like such bad games? League of Legends too, waht a horrible popular game.

Anyway, PUBG is awful. I am going to go play Quake 3 (best FPS ever made, this is my own opinion, played it since it released bro) because I have independent tastes of my own in video games.

Because it's fun

steam community market
twitch streamers

0/10 pretty autistic my man

While that is true, his points are valid.

Can't even get into a game. Good game

Why do people prefer this over H1Z1?

Its different. Other shooters are small scale, and on the case of Battlefield that has been too streamlined for consoles. Variance in gameplay since you start each match with nothing, can land in new spots all the time, circle RNG changes the flow of the game and leads to unexpected encounters.

Its just a sped up DayZ/Survival game with an end goal. BR is one of the bigger reasons survival started dying, the whole end goal of survival is looting up and doing PVP.

>Sup Forums doesn't like a game that is 30 USD, doesn't go on sale and there's no way to pirate

Really gets the ol noodle a stroodlin.

Is this typical from PUBG players or are you just special?

>implying there aren't 2 million kids in the world
Regardless of who plays a game, popularity does not mean a game is good.

first we need to know the origin of your terrible taste, my dude

ironic autist going through the 5 stages of grief after having seen someone post "the game is trash" while having no way to combat that statement other than going in full ironic cringe mode

Anyone here actually play it?
It's really fun and intense with friends. Guns feel good and sound nice and controls aren't bad either.
Only real problem I have with the game are the graphics and optimization. Why do you hate it?

There's no preparation required. Shooting people is popular and you can literally just jump right into the game.

This thread is actually very reflective of real life. The "normies" are all having fun playing a popular game and the misfits and contrarians on Sup Forums are sitting in a corner by themselves convincing themselves they're superior because they hate the popular game and it's shit.

H1Z1's big fault was releasing big features only after PUBG hit early access. Spectator launched with PUBG, and PUBG duos/squads has a revive function. If you played H1Z1 anywhere in 2015 or 2016 with friends, it was an awful experience. Can't spectate after death, someone dying due to RNG loot can't be saved by reviving if you come in time.

H1Z1 took WAY too long to add new weapons, considering it came out in 2015. Z2 was a big change for the game, and alot of people did not like it. H1Z1 revolved entirely around car meta, jumping out at high speed or re-positioning since cars were tanks.

This. The guy could tell no one gave a shit about zombies in DayZ, they just wanted to kill the shit out of each other. So he cut the forest running simulator between fights from 4 hours to 4 minutes and let people have at it.

I hope English isn't your first language because I can't understand you

DayZ Standalone had way less zombies than mod, that is why no one cared about DayZ zombies. There was no penalty to being loud or running around in the middle of the street, at most you aggro 2 zombies.

I think people would revisit DayZ SA if they added a BR mode, because the map and guns are god tier in that game. Just remove the stamina system and weapon swaying, just like Arma 3 BR

>remove chinks which are 50% of the playerbase
>remaining players: 1.5 million player peak daily, 750k avg daily
>that's 2 times more than what dota has WITH chinks included
>"hurr durr its only there because of chinks"
That's how you detect an imbecile.

are you shitting on pubg because you think you're going to convince anyone who plays it to stop or because you want to jerk it with the other "superior taste" neckbeards

>Chinks like it
>Chinks also have the highest IQ of any ethnicity
Maybe Sup Forums is just too stupid to enjoy it

China is actually 60% of the playerbase, and 99% of the cheaters are from China.

When are the steam refunds going live?

Got refunds on killing Floor 2 and Ark yet steam are using automated bots for me and my friends at the moment, chargeback perhaps?

Meme answer: Because normies have horrible taste that's why.

Actual answer: The concept in itself isn't original PUBG is the only game that started out with the sole intention of being a battle royal game. It isn't a half baked mod of a pre existing game, it isn't a side project of a game that was meant to be something else entirely. It is dedicated to being the battle royal game and isn't a dumpster fire like the culling. Also being thrown on an island with 100 people only for one to win is exciting to most people. Sure the game has it's flaws like the map being a little bit big and some bugs here and there but these days it's always the more experimental stuff that gets people's attention. While most of us have already played a mod and this is nothing new for us for most this is their first taste into the battle royal genre.

>why such an horrible game is popular?
are you Japanese?

It just amazes me how such small things can be so significant to game's success. I mean, average normie player probably doesn't even know about "jumping out of cars" mechanic how can it be so important for people that they decide to switch games? Must be something else, something less obvious.

It's 1 million actually. Even less if we deflate regions like Korea which shouldn't even exist on the same server as NA/EU. That's not two times the amount of 850,000 peak DOTA2 players. Maybe go back to school.

But that's beside the point. The Chinese dwarf the amount of players present in any other region. And Blueshill runs with that by posting buy counts in the tens of millions, when the lion's share of those sales are from cockroaches on the other side of the globe who don't mind playing shitty games.

Average normie H1Z1 players absolutely knew about not taking damage when jumping out of cars. Alot of small mechanics like that just build up an annoying playstyle that becomes THE playstyle. If you didn't have a car in H1Z1 you were fucked, only the Revolver did good damage to cars so they were tanks, so top 10-20 was a ton of cars driving around hoping to jump out and get a quick kill and hop in and go.

>shilling this hard for a retarded, casual, buggy mod of ArmA 3
And I thought only ARKiddies were dominant in the board.

>graph clearly says 50% players, 44% owners
>but its 60%
Are you brain damaged?

>Mass replying

Go fuck yourself

>850k peak
>steam stats clearly say 650k
>lets also exclude this this and this region even tho dota has the very same regions included
This degenerate just goes all in, doesn't he?

Playerunknown said yesterday it was 60%.

...

Chinese Dota 2 doesn't use Steam, while PUBG is only available on Steam. For now, Tencent has the rights for PUBG in China now. In a few months all the Chinese will be purged and on their own servers. They would have to use VPN to play with Steam users

DrDisrespect, a millionaire, being blackmailed into coming out about infidelity and completely breaking down in front of thousands of Gen Z members, shaking and crying and forever ruining his manufactured persona is the most fun I've had with video game related media this year. It even eclipsed DSP paying an escort to pose as his girlfriend, then being threatened by her pimp and shitting himself (literally) on stream, it's that good. I watched that 2 minute clip of him tearing up, twitching and pulling his mustaches at least 50 times.

And we would have 1.5kk players peak and 600-750k average, which will be top1 on Steam, even with every single chink purged.

Your point?

No, just a few days ago the Chinese got blocked out of steam due to technical difficulties. Pubg dropped down to 2nd place with a notable gap inbetween it and 1st

>twitchwhore tells he cheated on his wife like anyone gives a fuck
>autistic manchild has fun watching that multiple times
Sometimes I think about what can be more pathetic than spending your life on anime cartoons imageboard and then I stumble upon such posts.

Yes, Karma is a wonderful thing.

Same concept as DayZ but with developers actually present.

It basically stole DayZ's playerbase and expanded from there.

Most things that are horrible become popular. One example being FR3D.

Ah, as expected from the PUBG strain of neo-Sup Forums: avid followers of e-celeb cancer.

>more in "things that never happened"

I like sociological insight piss poor reality tv shows offer.

>Chinese internet unable to connect for a month
>isolated incident where only Chinese players couldn't access the Steam servers
Read better retard

because sonybros and nintenbros can't play it.

I still love Doc it's fine that he cheated on his wife and lit that orphanage on fire I still love you Doc

> an escort to pose as his girlfriend, then being threatened by her pimp and shitting himself (literally) on stream
source on the DSP video?

And the number of players weren't affected? In fact kept going up?

>Since Minecraft

Gr8 achievement there m8

>chinks couldn't connect to steam
>chinks are 50% of pubg playerbase
>stats not changing without chinks
Hurr da durr I am retarded please fuck my face.

...

Retards like yourself give him replies, evidently.

It was a twitch clip that got deleted from livestreamfail, basically he goes to the bathroom, leaves mic on and you can hear him sharting in his pants and swearing en route.

Also, boogie smeared shit on his shirt and licked it last night.

oh no I gave him a reply how awful

>havent had any fun since 1998

>abysmal performance all around
>bugs out the ass
>they just slap a final release on it and call it a day
How can anyone defend this? Nothing substantial has changed since EA.

People tried it because it was well promoted, but then they stayed because that game had new emotions for them because most peoples don't usually play hardcore shooters, and after battlefield, call of duties, cs and siege pubg is really something new (but is still a shit game)

You cant that anymore.

...

because what you like isn't what the majority of gamers like

Because its fucking good, you contrarian cunt

So Killing Floor 2 and Ark got fucked over by the refund process and PUBG gets a free pass? Provide sauce on this please

More likely is Steam won't offer the refunds as they would lose Millions in a matter of days, but I would like more info of this 'change'

>Game sells a lot
>Therefore it's good
Guess Justin Bieber and Twilight are the pinnacles of music and literature, respectively.

>justin bieber - pinnacle of something
thats regaeton... but wait! dont kill self yet

Do you want to live in a world where Minecraft is the number one game or PUBG? Lucky that we got to experience both of these timelines amiright?

Is it still an un-optimized dumpster fire?
If it ain't and 1.0 fixed thing I might give it another go.

PUBG is just another proof that Gen Z prefers LARPing rather than gameplay. It all started with Minecraft, then piss poor Arma "gameplay", basically all you need is a big digital field, eceleb shills and microphone. I foresee ValveBlizz shitting out a game like this by mid 2018.

ikr, it's like a disease spread by twitchers and their braindead fanbase.

I can see the appeal of mc, but how a lazy assetflip like PUBG gets this popular is beyond me.

If this was only on PS4 Sup Forums would be praising it.

>Chinese Dota 2 doesn't use Steam
Hmmm

>i-i-it's just another flavor of the month

kek

Because its casual.
Its like Dayz which is tons of fun but in PUBG death has no consequence.
If you die you simply load up the next game and got all your stuff again after 5 minutes whereas in DayZ you can lose hours, if not days of work in an instant, I never pissed myself as hard as in some moments I had in DayZ.

it's not, only chinese and other third worlders are playing it
