PUBG Creator Responds To Battlefield Battle Royale Announcement

"Pretty sure some of the later missions give more XP. Gonna go check and update this comment once I’m sure (will probably take a while because it's 4am in Korea). If you couldn’t actually get to level 20 then that’d be dumb and we’d change

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds _ creator Brendan Greene aka PlayerUnknown never expected the Battle Royale shooter to become such a huge hit for his team at Bluehole, but with success comes pressure. PlayerUnknown recently spoke out bout the side-effects of creating such a popular game. Greene stated that he knows his follow-up project isn't going to become as much of a cultural milestone, and that it's " _probably going to get s*** o

In the same discussion of the similarities between the two titles, Chang Han Kim, had also implied possible legal action against Epic Games, especially following reference to Player Unknown's Battlegrounds in the marketing for Fortnite's battle-royal mode. Now it seems that the company decided to follow through on these warni

PlayerUnknown may have only recently started thinking about his next game, but he also told fans not to expect it too soon since there's still plenty he wants to do with PUBG . Not only does he plan to continuing improving the popular multiplayer shooter - PUBG 's developers admitted to failing players recently - but he plans on making sure it becomes an eSports staple. Greene talked about the importance of hiring former Riot Games chief marketing officer Jung Hyun Kwon, and hopes to replicate the success of League of Legends in the Korean market, which makes sense now that games like H1Z1 are attempting to push Battle Royales into the eSports ar

I am dreading my next game, because it’s PlayerUnknown’s Next Game . And there’s going to be eyes on it. No matter what I do, there’s going to be a lot of critics going, 'Well, it’s no PUBG Money guide.' And I’ve accepted that – I am not going to make a game that’s going to get like, three million concurrent users, and tens of millions of players every month. But I’m not aiming to make that. I want to make a game I want to play, and if other people want to play it, that’s fantastic – but ultimately, if they don’t, I’ll still have a game that I can play. So that’s my outlook: I’m probably going to get sh*t on, but that’s o

As to be expected, many fans of both PUBG and Battlefield responded to the tweet. In particular, many people made jokes about the ongoing lawsuit between PUBG and Fortnite Battle Royale , suggesting that Battlefield developer DICE is about to get sued

Here's how the math works out. For non-paying players, there are only so many sources of experience every day. They break down into daily experience earned just by playing, daily experience earned through completing challenges, weekly experience earned through challenges, and "Normal" challenges that persist for the entire ev

Taking all of this into account, it will be interesting to see if Bluehole Studio will be able to successfully implement a permanent Event Pass for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds thanks to the data and feedback it received during its initial limited-time launch. If it does get incorporated correctly down the line, the feature could give PUBG a better shot at expanding its current 400 million-plus player ba

Some posts on Reddit agree with him in saying PUBG had it coming. Others say the real problem is that Grzesiek’s punishment isn’t really punishment at all. After watching its player count plummet early this year and continue to dwindle, PUBG wouldn’t want to risk losing one of its star players. While PUBG faces backlash for the discrepancy between how it doles out punishments, Grzesiek doesn’t appear to be affected by the temporary ban. He has begun training for Rainbow Six Siege , a game whose popularity has grown in recent months while PUBG’s continues to shrink. Since he hasn’t met a shooter he can’t master, Grzesiek can switch his sights to another game, secure in the knowledge that he’ll continue creating great footage for his f

It's great to see that Greene has realistic views towards his next game. Trying to replicate the success of PUBG would be a near-impossible task, and every move he makes in the future will be under a microscope. There will always be angry fans and critics going forward, so his attitude of " I'm probably going to get sh*t on, but that's okay " is the right one to h

Not long after the Battlefield V battle royale announcement was made, Brendan "PlayerUnknown" Greene of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds fame, took to Twitter to respond. In all caps lock, the famed game developer sent the Battlefield Twitter account a public message, welcoming the "old friend" to the battle royale c

Although the so-called original battle royale game has managed to weather this particular storm (so far, at least) will it be able to outlast another attack from another major player? Only time will tell, but the tweet from PlayerUnknown makes it very clear: the PUBG development team will be watching the developments surrounding Battlefield V very, very clos
