Dec 22, 2017The idea is fine, the execution is sub par with 18 hz tick servers at max. Fortnite runs a lot better and is completely free.
-
Dec 22, 2017Critics are fake, i can't believe this game have the same score of the witcher 3. Is plenty of bugs, not optimized and really frustrating. YES OFC this is NOT **** game but the same metascore of Divinity2 or the witcher 3? We are near to ridiculousness. My score is 1 Cause i want to low this critics cheats but the game deserve 5/6...
-
Dec 30, 2017Most bugged and unfinished game i have ever played. the netcode is so bad, the gameplay is terrible too. it is more a walking simulator than anthing else. and this game is so much overhyped by paid streamers to promote this very poor made game.
-
Dec 22, 2017Poor optimization. Unfinished product, bugs, poor performance with hi end PC, Playerunknown's Battlegrounds is a promise of something, but they take money for a promise, not fair. A lot of missing contents for the most disappointing game of the year.
-
Dec 21, 2017Why in hell someone can give this game a 10/10? Doest make any sense..
It i fun? Yeah! But bugged, badly optimized, and just have 2 **** maps.. How can you compare this with a game full game? This is a beta version of something that coud be geat, but is just still missing ALOT. -
Dec 20, 2017Unacceptable amount of bugs and lack of optimization for such a big title. While hardly being an original game, the only thing that could've brought and maintain this game at the top is the attention from the streamers.

Dec 22, 2017This is simply overhyped peace of ugly textures and buggy code that can't be called GAME.
-
Dec 21, 2017Buggy unoptimized mess. Fun with friends but gets annoying really fast when you can't pick up the gun from the ground or open doors. 30€ from this? No thanks, it feels ike a mod to some other game.
-
Dec 21, 2017This game is on the hype train cuz of streamers. It's more fun to watch than play cuz of their reactions. When you play you actually see how frustrating and lame it is.

Dec 20, 2017Devs cashed in before the word could get out...This game is trash do not waste your money on it. Supposedly out of early access yet still full of lag, desync, glitches, bugs, and oh man do they have a ton of cheaters, but don't worry they don't acknowledge the cheaters so they don't have to fix it. Hasn't made much progress from the Arma mod days if you take away the slight graphics upgrade.

Dec 21, 2017Overrated and over-hyped thrash. Cancer of gaming industry and gaming subculture. This game doesn't deserve it's accidental success.
-
Dec 20, 2017Problème de latence, crash, popping, framerate au fraise.
Le jeu en lui même est bien, mais malheureusement la version Xbox One est vraiment à la ramasse.
C'est vraiment une hone de sortir un jeu en cet état. -

Dec 21, 2017this game is no single play story.
There are no individual characters.
This game is similar to h1z1 .
It just happened to be a jackpotl. -
Dec 21, 2017okay so my review is based upon another mans review whom said that pubg was tactical gameplay. my foughts are that it is not a good game with little to no anything to do... i see no daily quests or even story quests to complete and only guys killing guys no girls haha xd

Jan 12, 2018i must say , clearly the most of website Reviewers are not gamers , its not really deserves a 8/9/10 score , this is a good shooting game and of course its really fun with friends , but the poor optimization and a big amount of bugs and server lags and a lot of cheaters, i mean what are they doing with all that money , i hope they do something about these problems.

Jun 17, 2018For a while I had a blast with PUBG, but after the first 5 hours it started to feel repetitive and kind of stale.
-
Apr 29, 2018So so many frigging cheaters :( I love the game but lack of safe-gaming ruins it a lot. It was pleasure to play, now its now
-
Jul 11, 2018During the release of this game was a great hype and everyone played it, but now that hype over - number of players falls and the game dying at a high pace. The main disadvantages of the game are ban trade and "awesome" optimization.
-

Oct 26, 2018This game plays like a jagged and buggy mess. It clearly isn't optimized and the progression system is loot box based and absolutely non-existant. I could see some people getting into this due to the innovative and addicting concept of Battle Royale. However, the stiffness and rigid gameplay is a no from me dog.
-
Sep 5, 2018FIX the game and we can talk about better score. Still wasted like 300 hours in it.

Jan 31, 2018Developers cashed out and are no where to be seen.. are you guys even working on the game anymore ? do not waste your money on it, they say out of early access ?? yet still full of lag, glitches and bugs.. makes for some funny YouTube videos but impossible to play - congrats .. cant wait for the next update that gets us.. absolutely no where.
-
Jun 27, 20202020: Heavy game with terrible optimization. The more you play, the more it increases your frustration.
Too bad because the concept is fun. Save your money -

Nov 18, 2018Pros: Great realistic graphics and lightning. Great sound - gun shots, foot steps, etc. Also sometimes it's quite fun to play.
Cons: Game is hardcore. Damage model is way too hard. It takes very little time to kill or to be killed. I think it's the main purpose why Fortnite became much more popular.
I think they should add kind of an arcade mode to make the game less harder to master. -
Jun 24, 2019Ben çok uygun yerdeyim 10 metreden adamı vuramıyorum hiç böyle oyun oynamasam diyecem ben hatalıyım arkadaş böyle saçma sapan oyun olmaz.Eksi puan veriyorum.Zıplayan adam yanında ölmüyor gercekte zıplasın bakalım böyle göt oyun hiç görmedim.
-
Nov 15, 2018While I love the idea, it's still missing many things like ballbanging or a proper use of netcode. Very annoying to be matched with people that their ping is 100+, makes it unplayable. While stability and general performance was improved a bit, it's still a long way to go through.
-
Nov 22, 2018Ha mejorado bastante desde su salida, pero aun así, se sigue haciendo repetitivo a veces.
Recomendado solo si juegas con amigos. -

Apr 8, 2019Absolute garbage, complete trash of a game
stupid designers that know nothing about shooters
ignorant publisher that only wants money and stupid enough to sue Epic Games over battle royale genre.
fking stupid game...trash -
Jun 7, 2019Bu oyun her ne kadar popüler olsa da yine de hiç güzel değil hiç iyi değil BOK GİBİ BOK

Apr 20, 2019actually full **** potato grapihcs, optimization 10 ac: unity from 10 ac: unity, bug on bug with bug this game DONT COST 20 DOLLARS EVERY GAME LOOKS BETTER EVERY BATTLE ROYALE LOOKS BETTER!!!
-
May 19, 2019The Game seems Good but its Full of Cheaters and no one can't play Aimbots wallhacks and more is the 80% of community is Kids with full of CHEATS. My 36years as Gamer says Do Not Buy this Game.
About 25€ goes to Thrush . -
Jun 4, 2019it's so bad game
you have to do nothing in this game ( just named a game)!! -

Dec 31, 2018Good game which has gotten a lot better over the last year. I have a 2011 PC with a 2016 mid range GPU and I dont see a single performance or server issue.
-
Jun 25, 2019Never encountered a game so Cheater-ridden as this. if you can´t make your game cheater-safe, don´t make a game at all. I hear they banned 7 Million cheaters until today. Forget that game.
-
Aug 12, 2019Задумка неплохая,но много багов очень!!! плохая оптимицазия, лагает даже на топовом компе!
-
Oct 30, 2019Отличный жоподрывательный шутер, тут есть все и крысы и читеры и подлагивания, но радость от топ1 затмевает все минусы)
-
Dec 19, 2020Overrated trash game which started cancerous dumb battle royale trend. It is just blatant ripoff H1Z1. Gameplay is very slow, boring, and infested with bugs and glitches which haven't been fixed to this date. Dead teammate is forced to just watch and wait other teammates to be killed, there is no respawn mechanics

Mar 30, 2020I hate the mobile version of the game, and I hate that it overshadowed PUBG steam, But overall PUBG is better than Fortnite, But None of em worth playing in 2020, Because COD WARZONE is free and based on a very advanced tech, Don't forget about Apex too
And even ROE is better than both PUBG and Fortnite, Meh. -
May 4, 2020Nice cheat, bro. no optimization, no content for such a price tag .It is fail
-
Jun 26, 2020About PUBG Lite.
A lot of bots, especially at night. In a game of 100 people, there can be 95 bots.
Terribly. -
Jul 22, 2020Everything is clear here, the game is the worst in its genre. It's just a crooked ****
-

May 29, 2022Lierally nothing is made properly, cheaters in every single match and each patch makes the "game" worse.
-
May 31, 2022They cant even spell their own name right let alone make a half functioning game! Literally worst thing I've ever played.
-
Jan 4, 2018Not worth buying. Had a huge budget and their published a game which is bugged and has bad server. The game also has a lot of frame crashes.
-
Jan 6, 2018Used to be very fun and exciting. Now the game freezes, lags, rubber-bands and has various other bugs you would expect from a beta version not a game that just rolled out from months of beta testing. The worst part is the cheating and hacking. There is so much of it that the game is no longer fun. Avoid this game. Will be uninstalling.
-
Jan 3, 2018PUBG has started on the right track of being a great game,with an okay new map,and extremely great QOL improvements, however it still has alot of fine tuning and gameplay improvements to make before I even consider it a good game.theres fun to be had in PUBG, however I only had said fun in squads with friends
4.5/10 -
Jan 1, 2018This game still needs work. Why is it at times i can empty a clip into some ones head they turn around and hit me once and kill me. Sometimes its hard to pick up guns and other things i have to keep walking back and forth over them to pick them up. Lot of glitches in scenery and game play. And its not my PC its way more than good enough to play this or any game.
-
Dec 26, 2017Game idea is prefect , game play is good , the problem is on servers and bugs rollback , i hope you work on it , we spend about 30$ to buy the game + buy a new pc to play in good condition , i also hope you optimize the game to play with more fps . Thanks

Dec 23, 2017The worst optimization.
I feel so useless playing this.
Is definitely better watch streams -
Dec 24, 2017Boring game. This game has nothing to do after death, it easily get bored. This genre will not last long.
-
Dec 31, 2017Lag, crash, no optimization, netcode like a sh*t. Does not deserve such hype.
-
Dec 23, 2017This game is a fun concept ruined by amateur and immature creators.
This most recent update has utterly broken the already tenuous netcode. It's so un-optimised it makes DayZ look polished.
To top it all off it's just not fun to play. Run around hoping the RNG gives you some good loot and then die 20 mins later to someone you had no chance of spotting then do it all again.
Do not buy. -

Jan 16, 2018I didn't understood the hype but I gave it a try anyway. Played it for a while and couldn't warp my head around it. It gets boring really fast and you just doing the same thing over and over again. There's no variety of things to do. It just feels like a mode, not a full game.

Jan 21, 2018This game was not that good. i found it to be just messy and just not fun. i think fortnite did a better job when it came to distinguishing itself and less buggy. I also found it was just not as good as people said
-
Jan 22, 2018this game had a shot at greatness 20 million hope for the best. chinese hackers, armys of no recoil bots. and the dev playing the race card for region lock.
play anything else -

Jan 30, 2019Hackers. Hard difficult. High specifications.
I given Battlegrounds to 4 out of 10.
(If your PC 's specifications high, you can enjoy this game.) -
Dec 25, 2017Playerunknown's Battlegrounds may not be the first Battle Royale game, but it clearly revolutionised the genre. But that may be so, PUBG, even in its version 1.0, is still a game with numerous technical disasters and obvious lack of design and creativity.
-

-
Dec 31, 2017Game is ruined by Chinese cheat creators collaborating with the developers to avoid cheat detection for a share in profits. 95% of games are filled with Chinese hackers no matter what server you play on.
-
Dec 24, 2017Fraudulent sale as is. Still poor optimization, laggy servers running on pentium 4, people forced to play poorly performed desert map 9/10 times, crashes, unable to get to lobby, rubber-banding, fps drops. It's still early alpha 0.1 version. Don't waste your time and money.
-
Dec 23, 2017Every game i lag like crazy. It stops for a minute and I crash. 0 point playing.
-
Dec 24, 2017Been suffering from bugs the whole year, while paying full 30$ price on early access.
-
Dec 25, 2017This game has much potential. The visuals and graphics are impressive and the gameplay is very entertaining. However, the ammount of bad optimisations and it is very buggy despite it being the "full version"
Overall i like the idea, but the devs need to work on it a little bit -
Oct 24, 2018A game that looks nice on the surface until you realise that in at least 50% of games you will just die to some hacker who a. knows where you are b. can hit you with every single bullet and c. has no recoil. The game runs fine and I have no issue with lag at all. It's just worthless because its not at all fair.

Apr 23, 2018Register at metacritic just for this comment:
2 things ruined this game completely:
1) cheaters, many, many, many cheaters
2) wery, wery, wery bad network code - you hit enemy 5 times??? - Hah, no, enemy already killed you 2 sec ago.

Apr 24, 2018The whole madness around PUBG is well-deserved. This is the best possible praise for this great battle-royale-genre shooter. What a pity there are so many bugs, mad vehicle physics and occasional cheaters, but it bothers you only for a while. When you frantically get into the hectic, slightly frightening struggle for life and death you’ll forget anything else.
