The gritty realistic battle royale shooter Playerunknown's Battlegrounds _ is a brutal and difficult game to thrive in for a new player. Unlike its other battle royale contemporaries, _PUBG requires a more methodical and different assortment of player skills. To survive a round of PUBG, a player must make a minimum number of mistakes and be extremely careful in their approach and strat

Skorpion was added to the game last year, but it never really appealed to the player base. It’s essentially a pocket SMG, that one can carry around without using the primary weapon slot. However, the Skorpion does need a lot of attachments to be effective, and even then, it’s not something to brag about. It’s better to invest the attachments to the primary weapon as Skorpion barely holds against other weapons in the g

The single-shot rate of fire is the go-to fire rate when engaging in long to mid-range firefights. This allows a player to maintain accuracy and not succumb to the brutal recoil on most weapons. Using a single-shot and a mid to long-range scope can turn any assault rifle into a powerful sniper rifle. The use of single-shot can be the difference in a firefight when used effectively and accurat

While we take great joy in comparing these two battle royale titans, Fortnite really should be in a different league of it's own. PUBG is a traditional battle royale game, but Fortnite is not only battle royale, but Minecraft too. In the game you have to gather supplies and build to survive -- it's honestly quite bizarre when you really exam it. In the middle of a heated battle you could be mining for stone and build a four-story house. And don't think you'll get very far without utilizing these mechanics, as some of the best players have gotten that way by becoming master build

This is the part where many gamers rightfully bash PUBG into the the grave that it deserves to die in after introducing it's shady business practices. First, charge for a game that's an unfinished buggy mess that continued to be an unfinished buggy mess for years to come. Second, bring in a shady micro-transaction lottery system that rewards you with crappy cosmetic items for a bloated price. Third, copy the fair and successful battle pass formula that Fortnite has implemented since the start of the series. Boy are those PUBG devs shady, and while the Epic Game's higher ups are no less shady, they at least implemented fair business practices in their most profitable g

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 game because if you're not on your P's and AI digital ecosystem 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

Sure this is far from that "meat and potatoes" we were talking about when discussing these two titans, but Fortnite's price point, or lack of should we say, has always been a big caveat. To this day PUBG still retails for $29.99 dollars, and that remained its price point long before it was a finished game, when it was a buggy mess back in Beta. Fortnite on the other hand has been a complete package since day 1, and has always been free with a fair micro transaction system that has been adapted all over the gaming wo

Unlike shotguns, Assault rifles can function as decent to extremely powerful mid to long-range weapons. Solidifying it as a much better weapon to rely on, even if it doesn't excel at close-range as shotguns do. Similarly, Sniper rifles are only really useful for long to mid-range combat, using a sniper at close range is always a death sentence, unless your aim is spectacular. This is where assault rifles establish superiority over the Sniper, while it is better at long range, it doesn't compare to the assault rifles util

For players who can't get into Fortnite or Call of Duty: Black Ops 4's Blackout battle royale mode, PUBG is certainly worth checking out, but only for those who have a PlayStation 4 Pro. The game can barely run on the standard PS4 and it's not even worth trying there. It's important to note that there's less available in the PlayStation 4 version of the g

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
