damn, when was the last time a game got this big? Minecraft?
My normie friends started to play this shit on their ps4 normiemachines this last week too.
is the game even good?
It's not . It's another fun with friends type of game that rides the wave of battle royale while also being f2p.
only when you play with drake
>PS4 normiemachines
youre only SEETHING because it got ported to mobile before the switch
pve is fun
>tfw fortnite is a massive success and almost minecraft 2.0 but the youtube scene will never live up to minecrafts :(
OBSESSED
I seriously thought that the creators of PUBG are pathetic when they tried to sue Fortnite for copying their idea. Like what are they affraid of, that this noname game will ever be a serious competition?
Then this shit completely took over the world, it's like 4 times more popular than PUBG and pretty much steals 75% of it's playerbase.
I guess I shouldn't seek carrier as an investor.
The building can get retarded late game, if you're out of explosives you're pretty much fucked
PUBGs playercount has been mostly unaffected by the whole thing.
They don't share playerbases, fortnite is mainly made up of ps4/xbox/low end pc whereas pubg is high end pc (until they optimise it) for xbox
If Fortnite wouldn't be a thing as a F2P alternative a lot more people would be interested in buying PUBG that's for sure.
It seemed to be getting really big for a moment but it turned out to be quite seasonal like Pokémon go. It's not in the top 4 right now. Sea of Thieves is the next big thing to entertain normies for a month.
The guy who made PUBG is a fucking idiot.
If he did F2P and ported his shit game to consoles then he would have made 500% more profits
>inb4 B-BUT MTX DON'T WORK!!!!
Delusional.
Where is fortnite mobile on android. Fucking PubG mobile is a joke.
PUBG is more than f2p, the game actually pays for itself after about 6 months depending on how much you play and how much you got it for
Sea of Theives just launched. It'll be relevant for a few days until people just go back to whatever they were playing. Xbox boys just hyping it up since they have nothing else exciting going on on their platform.
imo it's way more to do with optimisation/no ps4 port than being f2p.
I think the reason sales are dying down on pc is because almost everyone who enjoys shooters and has a pc capable of running it has bought it, and on xbox it's still the best selling game every week.
Unless it's a genre where everything is f2p e.g. mobas, going f2p is the same as admitting your games shit compared to the alternatives
i've got news for you dude.
pubg mobile is populated by bots to make idiots like you think you're really good at the game. sorry to break it to you but you're shit.
I think i threw up
Only games with art styles similar to Fortnite (aka cartoony) should be on mobile.
It just looks ugly as sin and like a game from the late 90's when a realistic art styled game gets ported to mobile
I know about the bots, but the game itself is shit. Never played PUBG on pc and wanted to give it a try. DayZ tier.
god, 2010 youtube was comfy af
hahahahahaha
holy fuck.
PUBG is a clusterfuck atm, they did nothing for months when it released besides work towards loot boxes and then complaints about this map is getting boring they roll out another one and don't even bother optimizing shit.
They then decide to make a mobile port that looks ugly due to it's art style and make it easier thus less rewarding when you win due to adding bots and the fact that there are very few active players on the mobile version
>posts screenshot bragging about how good he is
>gets btfo
>i-i knew about the bots! t-the game is shit!
please
no it wasn't, it was literally the same cancerous shit except Ray William Johnson was still relevant
>sitting on the bus
lol
the pubg guy and butthole studios deserve every loss they take. they became completely complacent not even a year in, and got eclipsed over night. it couldn't have happened to worse people.
can someone explain this meme of wearing your mcdonalds uniform on the bus? i worked at mcdicks for 2 years as a teenager, and just put my uniform on at work.
It's just neets making fun of wagecucks
The only thing about this that makes me happy is the absolutely unimaginable butthurt of PlayerUnknown.
its free right? i want to try it
It's one of the most frustrating games I've ever played. Winning strategy is to spend all game being sneaky and not really confronting anyone. I can get consistent top10 by being bored all game.
No it wasn't you retard
How was he bragging?
Besides the Youtube attention whore shit, there's something really nice and heartwarming about this enormous shared experience. I remember being a young teenager during the absolute Pokemon insanity of the late 90s, where even the fucking Pope got involved. A decade and change later as an adult I'm seeing all the kids, nephews, cousins just getting together to talk shop about Minecraft, play it on their laptops, or splitscreening Call of Duty, and now they're doing this.
Also the fact that they turned an overbaked designed-by-committee-checklist zombie survival lootbox crafting game into a chasing flavor-of-the-month multiplayer fad into the biggest multiplayer game of the day will always be funny.
literally looks like one of those chink bootlegs that always have names like "World Shoot Z: Survive Battle" that look like they came out of a generator
I guess that's why 99% of the playerbase is chinks lmao
Fortnite is fun but it's overrated and oversaturated.
Anyone saying it isn't fun is just a contrarian because it's popular.
