A couple of years after its last release, Respawn Entertainment surprised the game industry by simultaneously announcing and launching a free to play battle royale title called Apex Legends . While many other attempts were made and ultimately failed to capture the success of PUBG and Fortnite , Apex Legends continues to grow at a rapid pace having just crossed 50 million players in about a months time . Even though its popularity remains high and content updates continue to arrive at a consistent rate, Apex Legends does suffer from a few issues that negatively sets it apart from its closest riv
Shockingly, the test did not go well for Apex Legends . The test was conducted on the PC version of each of these games at multiple times in the day between two players on the same server with a ping of about 25 milliseconds each. At the end of the day, Apex Legends featured the highest amount of network delay (highest, shortest, and average numbers) between the damage, gunfire, and movement categories. Black Ops 4 's Blackout followed next with slightly better numbers but overall much higher than what would be considered normal. Fortnite ultimately came back with the smallest network lag numbers with both Ring of Elysium and PUBG close beh
In terms of networking features, Apex Legends also came back pretty barebones. As of right now, the game doesn't have Network Warning Icons, it does not favor the shooter limitation for players with more than 200ms ping, and it's missing many standard networking settings like an FPS limiter and a Network Graph or Overlay. Packet Splitting is also set as server to client and sends 5 packets per update, the highest of all the games listed in this test. The more times the packet is split, the higher the chance that the player sees lag or odd behavior. Now, it's worth pointing out that each of the other games in this test also suffered from their own issues, but Apex Legends had negative results in nearly every category tes
Moreover, it's worth mentioning that the 9 banned games are all battle royale games like Fortnite , so it's unclear if the country is just attempting to crack down on the genre as a whole. Without further ado, the full list of games selected for corrective action or withdrawal from the marketplace foll
At the moment, it's uncertain if the Chinese regulators have begun enforcing this ban because Fortnite and PUBG are still playable. Until then, however, all players can enjoy all that season 7 of Fortnite has to offer, including the latest OP weapon, the Infinity Bl
The ban is enforced under section 188 of the Indian Penal Code and is categorized as an "obstruction, annoyance, or injury." Under this law, gamers can be arrested for playing PUBG Mobile and may face up to one month in pri
Recently, the Chinese government created an Online Gaming Ethics Review Committee to ensure video games do not contain "ethically questionable content." Of the 20 games reviewed by this new committee, 11 developers were instructed to take "corrective action." 9 games have been selected, including Fortnite , to be banned in its entirety. While the banned games may be a surprise to some, it's worth mentioning that China has even censored Winnie the Pooh in Kingdom Hearts
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
Greene's announcement appeared earlier today on his Twitter account , where the creator of PUBG 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 weight of Greene's experience with harassment clearly continues to stay with him, he also acknowledges how it has helped him grow both as a person and as a leader. Health has become a priority for Greene, who after working 14-hour game development days on PUBG now insists on taking weekends off and ensuring he makes the most of his vacation t
PUBG Mobile has faced heavy criticism in the Indian media and is being linked to violence, murder, aggression, looting, cyberbullying, and addiction. Parents, mental health professionals, and even an 11-year-old child were among those calling for the ban, which was put in place in Rajkot on March 6th by Police Commissioner Manoj Agra
