The issues started with PUBG 's launch, with Greene describing how the game's server tech was built for a million concurrent users, only to have 3.2 million. "We had to do so much to catch up," Greene described, noting that, "We were a team of 30, 35 people." PUBG's developers were overwhelmed and doing their best. But despite the game's Early Access status, some players were demanding impossible changes and improvements and blamed the development team for not meeting their expectati
The Rajkot Special Operations Group (SOG) have been enforcing the law, but those breaking it are not hiding their crimes very well. Three youths were arrested near the police headquarters. SOG police inspector Rohit Raval stated, "This game is highly addictive and the accused were so engrossed in playing them that they could not even notice our team approaching them." He goes on to state that they had their mobile phones seized "for the purpose of the investigati
"The past five years of my life has been all about battle royale...today, I'm excited to announce that my new day-to-day focus will be heading up a new division of PUBG Corp.: PUBG Special Projects. While I'll remain as consulting creative director on PUBG , development will be led by Taeseok Jang and the fantastic team I have had the honor of working with over the past three yea
Greene isn't speaking just about himself either; he wants to instill this same philosophy into his new studio, the PUBG Special Projects team. He aims to get his team to a place where they work "four days a week and have a day to do whatever they want." Happiness is his priority for his development team, but even he acknowledges that they're all going to have to work hard to get to that po
PUBG is getting up there in age for a battle royale title , especially given the speed with which the market for these games fluctuates. Revisiting some old magic isn't a bad idea, but it does seem to ignore the much deeper problem of needing a fundamental design change to keep up with the games that PUBG inspired. Those titles have the benefit of fixing what PUBG did sub-optimally and innovating, and with so many iterations of that, now it's **PUBG ** 's turn to see if it can turn back the clock and refresh the game enough to become a stalwart of battle royale streaming once m
Greene's announcement appeared earlier today on his Twitter account , where the creator of PUBG crafting guide|https://pubgfrontierzone.com/ reflected on the last half-decade of his career. While Greene is clearly appreciative of the title that made him an industry star, he also sounded relieved to finally be heading in a different direction with his creative process, stat
While the future remains unknown (sorry) for Greene, it's an exciting move from a creative mind that was clearly ready for a change. PUBG might not be faring well lately, but Greene managed to turn a relatively small project into a worldwide phenomenon, and whatever he turns his attention to next will surely be measured under intense scrutiny and anticipation as a result. As the battle royale genre begins to grow a little stale for some, perhaps PlayerUnknown will be the one to innovate gaming's trajectory once m
"The notification falls in two parts. One is the person who is playing the game is liable for notification violation. At the same time, people who are aware that they are playing PUBG and still not communicating this to the authorities are also liable for an equal amount of violati
Meanwhile, Greene's new projects sound equally exciting: he's been clear that the Special Division isn't " doing this for profit " just yet, and that there's more exploration at play to begin with. The division will also be given several years to work out what it's aim is, without need for deadlines or profit margins to start. Whatever Greene decides to pursue, he'll be able to do it without restrict
In a statement made to The Indian Express , Agrawal explains that the offense is bailable, but will go to court. He said, "In the procedure, they will be shown as immediately bailed out by police. The case will go to the courts and there will be a trial for not following the notification issu
PUBG has also been openly criticized about the decisions being made behind the scenes of the game, especially those regarding skins and other cosmetic items usually purchased through microtransactions. The infamous Suicide Squad collaboration from last year raised the ire of many a player for the frankly ridiculous cost of some simple cosmetic costumes, and the game's marketplace on Steam has gone through several iterations of comedic inflation on sought-after items. That's not necessarily a bad thing, of course, but PUBG also has been losing ground when it comes to pure play, with many believing Fortnite to be a more enjoyable experience while Apex Legends has more refined and skill-intensive mechanics. Where once there was a clear niche PUBG occupied, now the game's identity has begun to wa
