Fans from around the world have long asked Bluehole to block Chinese players from accessing other regions, and Eastern gaming titan Tencent even introduced a host of region-exclusive servers for PUBG Mobile in the hopes that it would incentivize players based in China to stay within their digital territ

AKM: The AKM is one of the stronger assault rifles to use in PUBG . With one or two headshots, opponents (with lower-tier armor) will go down like a sack of potatoes. It also has a rather healthy range when shot in "small bursts." With a good scope, this rifle should be looked at as a solid alternative for sniping. Going hog-wild while spraying enemies with rapid-fire are best used secondar

One of Vikendi's most popular areas before the map was pulled from PUBG rotation , the Abbey returns in a slightly altered and much less accessible format here. Previously larger and located in the southern middle of the map, now the Abbey has been moved to the top of Mount Kreznic. Despite its remote location, however, players should seriously consider the Abbey as a great place to either drop in on or swing by on the way to the circle, even if getting there from ground level takes a little longer than it used

Gaining a sense of how vehicles work and how to properly use medical items is another essential lesson to learn. Vehicles will be a major player in winning or surviving a game of PUBG and becoming intimate with each vehicle can lay the foundation for a successful career. Without learning how to use medical items a player as no chance to even survive an online round. Learn the properties of each item and their respective mechanics and you will be one step closer to PUBG mast

R45 was a pretty popular handgun back when it was released, but after the arrival of Desert Eagle, it has completely been forgotten. Its kill power pales whenever compared to Desert Eagle or classic R1895, and its magazine size or handling is nothing to brag about either. It’s hardly used nowadays and isn’t viable at all, especially in a competitive mode. R45 best fits as a makeshift weapon before a player find any primary weap

The smaller of the two hot springs (Vetrnica) also offers a fair amount of cover on the way into Cantra, especially if players stay under the bridges, so those who prefer stealthier approaches should consider dropping on the outskirts and loading up on Mosin-Nagant ammo near the water, then edging along the side of the cliff wall towards town in order to maintain the element of surprise. Being located on the coast is also a point in Cantra's favor, as those are one of the few times PUBG allows players to disregard enemies coming from one entire direct

Even if we compare the OG maps from these two games it's a bit of a toss up as to which is the winner. Sure Fortnite has Tilted Towers, but PUBG has School; and in case you don't play the latter, School is a place where half of the lobby's players drop resulting in a massacre that leaves only one or two survivors who are barely clinging to life. But that's just the OG maps, PUBG now has four unique maps, all of which are just as good as the original in their own rights. Fortnite is finally making an alteration to it's original map, so there's not much competition h

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds may be one of the most dominant multiplayer releases of the past few years, but its shortcomings have come to eclipse the title’s once-sterling reputation. While the community circa March 2017 was optimistic and largely agreed that the game had quite a lot of potential, things seem on the verge of unraveling just two years later. When news came in late September last year that developer Bluehole would be axing the option to switch regions and gating certain players’ access to servers depending on ping, PUBG fans rejoiced. However, nearly six months have gone by since these features were implemented in Update 22, and the game’s multiplayer functionalities are still in a state of ch

For a new player to survive the intense online matches of PUBG a reevaluation of their strategy and skills are required. To truly succeed in the realistically brutal world of PUBG, a player must re-imagine what it means to play a battle royale shooter. This guide will provide some tips to accomplish this goal to develop a solid survivor inside the realm of a PUBG online ma

If you don’t finish the target in the first two rounds or if the enemy is 10 meters away, then Sawed-off becomes a liability. It has the highest potential damage out of any other handgun, but it also has the lowest effective ra

We didn't even get this as much as we wanted in the last entry, but Fortnite is fast. Good luck trying to get your dad into the Krafton Game IP because if you're not on your P's and Q's you're going to get pwned by some 8-year-old wearing a snap-back sideways within minutes of dropping off the battle bus. PUBG however, is more in line with the game play of a classic shooter. It's slow, almost empty at times and getting kills in it usually requires a much more patient, methodical approach. Sure the best players can run-n-gun like it's nobodies business, but if you play the game slow you have a good chance of making it
