Paladins: Battlegrounds Developer Pushes Back On PUBG Comparisons

Finally, the patch for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds also adds analog stick acceleration when jumping out of the plane and while parachuting. For many, the experience had previously felt painful to experience due to issues with the Xbox One version's performance , and the fact that using the sticks didn't offer any way to speed up and get to the ground faster than the competition. For a complete list of the patch's contents, check out the rundown toward the end of the arti


This particular decision was reached after PUBG Corp ran an extensive and comprehensive data review of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to find "new pattern" of cheating occurring with the game on PC. As seen in a Steam Community post regarding the matter, PUBG Corp isn't taking the issue lightly, as it has stated that those who have been found taking part in exploiting the game will be "permanently banned in a single wa


Tencent didn't reveal which mobile platforms it's bringing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to, though one has to imagine that both Android and iOS devices will be represented. Tencent also didn't reveal how PUBG would be altered for it to work on a mobile platform, but fans should expect more details on that front in the coming months. While Tencent was light on details when it comes to its PUBG mobile port, it did confirm that this version of the game would be released in China fi


As it so happens, this isn't the first instance of players getting some kind of comeuppance after cheating in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , as Tencent–that is, the company responsible for the game’s Chinese localization and the mobile port–recently helped police arrest 120 cheat makers in China . Interestingly enough, some Chinese cheaters caught in the crackdown had already done jail time in the past, which makes one wonder if PUBG Corp's huge ban of 100,000 players will actually assist in deterring further exploitation in the fut


On top of the mobile game and the landmark PC release, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is also scheduled to make its console debut sooner rather than later. As announced at E3 earlier this year, PUBG is releasing in early access as an Xbox One console exclusive on December 12th. Out of all the versions of the game, it will be interesting to see which one becomes the most popular when it's all said and d


Also, if it had been called "Paladins: Battle Royale" as originally intended, would we be having this same conversation, but with Fortnite: Battle Royale as the "victim?" Regardless, Chisam believes that "Battleground" should refer to a style of game, and that it shouldn't be trademar


It's been a controversy-filled 2017 for PewDiePie and it remains to be seen how the popular YouTuber moves on from all the backlash. Given the widespread influence he still wields , perhaps this will cause PewDiePie to rethink how he creates new content from now


If the mobile port of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is high quality, it's likely that the game will also make its way stateside and to other regions. After all, PUBG is one of the most popular video games currently available, shattering concurrent player records on Steam and selling over 20 million copies at last count. Considering its popularity, it would make sense for developer PUBG DLC Corporation (a subsidiary of Bluehole) to bring it to as many platforms as possi


Paladins: Battlegrounds will be available later this year, but if you want to play the original game to get used to the heroes you will play as, Paladins: Champions of the Realm is available on PC, PS4, and Xbox

Paladins: Battlegrounds was announced yesterday and was met with immediate criticism from fans and critics alike. Many feel that, since the game will play so similarly to PUBG , High Rez should at least stay away from the "battlegrounds" moniker. In response to these claims, High Rez Studio's president Stew Chisam was interviewed yesterday, wherein he pushed back on all of them and claimed that the two games are "unrelat


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , the Internet's biggest and most popular battle royale style game, has become so well known that it is hard for new games to come on the scene. While it is no surprise that developers are trying to claim their own share of this genre's profitability, it has now become incredibly difficult for them to do so without being accused of copying PUBG . The latest iteration of the battle royale formula comes in the form of High Rez Studio's Paladins: Battlegrounds , and it is already being accused of steal


A few days ago, it was announced that large Chinese video game publisher Tencent would be bringing the wildly popular PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to China in an official capacity. Today the company announced that not only is it releasing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds in the region, it is also creating a mobile version of the g


However, if the mobile port of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is a flop, then it may stay exclusive to China. We have no idea what kind of changes Tencent will have to implement to make PUBG play well on a mobile platform, and it could potentially compromise the spirit of the game. Similar concerns have been raised about other modifications Tencent is making to PUBG , including alterations to promote "socialist core values" in order for it to release in Ch
