This may be the question that comes to the minds of many gamers who do not feel interested in tasting this South Korean developer concoction game, regardless of its unstoppable popularity. Simply put, PUBG is a competitive multiplayer game that makes "Battle-Royale" the main genre. For those of you who are unfamiliar, Battle-Royale itself is a popular Japanese classic movie in 2000 ago, adapted from a novel output of 1999. He tells the story of a group of young people placed on a remote island by the government with one main goal - asking they fight to death with each other. Each of them gets a random supply box of weapons. And as time went by, the "battle" area was also scaled down to make sure the teenagers met each other and killed each other. Battle-Royale into a classic series that seems to be no stranger to many gamers who grew up in the 2000s.
Of course, this is not the Battle-Royale that Bluehole Studio automatically adapts to. What they are offering here is a new multiplayer competitive game series that carries a similar concept in gameplay, which believes it or not is something that has been adapted in the past, but never worked. PUBG loads 100 people battles simultaneously in a large area, all of which come without any provision. Each of them must strengthen and arm themselves with whatever they find in the existing arena, from a frying pan to a melee weapon, a body armor to withstand a small amount of bullets, to heavy caliber firearms. Sometimes, you can also find water or land vehicles for extra mobility. Next? Like the movie version that became the basis of inspiration, this game ended straightforward. You "just" need to endure to the end, and be the only survivor in the middle of this fierce battle. There is not much opportunity to hide in one place, because the area where you can move will also continue to be reduced as time goes by. What you find is a huge arena that will continue to force you to confront one another.
Straightforward, nothing else offered by PUBG in addition to this one sensation. The complexity factor will of course increase according to the mode you choose. In addition to playing in Solo, you can also play in Duo format (2 people) and also Squad (4 people), either randomly or by inviting friends from your Friend List. Playing in a cooperative format like this is more difficult, not only because your opponents will now move in a certain strategy format, but also the fact that you now have to think more about your own safety. Do you have to share resources? Do you have to move together right now? Do you need to surround other teams in sight using certain tactics? In fact, the smallest thing like where you jumped at the beginning was already need its own coordination. Playing this mode along with friends you already know rather than random will indeed make the ending experience more exciting and intense.
After several months of Early Access, the move to version 1.0 does offer maps and new features. One of the essential features of the essential is the ability to jump over the existing hurdles through simple action, having previously been done manually. On paper, it may sound insignificant, but when fighting in the arena, you will be able to sense how important this new feature is. For starters? With this function, you can now jump over building windows and enter the room for strategic reasons or just for a surprise. This opens up so many alternative options that make the "camper" in the house for example, can no longer stay silent and sit guard the entrance / exit only. More consistent and faster shifts also allow for more effective movement.
So here's the PUBG, a competitive multiplayer game, which can be played solo or in groups, where you have to fight to survive as long as possible in the arena. Randomness is still something that plays an important role here because you can end up lucky to get a series of weapons and essential equipment when you fall for the first time, or end up unlucky and find nothing, making you a prey waiting to be pounced. But the pure gameplay assignment PUBG offers is one of its main strengths.
