"Finally, the battle royale title will soon add a new Zombies mode, in which players can control the undead and attempt to overcome their human enemies. ..."

Fucking Zombies! Here's an idea that I wish would just die already. I'm so sick of zombie games.

My initial reaction as well, but then thought about how encountering 1 or 2 here or there (rare) in closets etc. would fit the context of the abandoned island, add a little to the early game, and make you carry a hand-to-hand weapon like a scythe or frying pan to deal with them silently. Their take on having players control the hoard, well, not sure there...

But its a mode, not an all time thing.

I agree footwear is more a noise-liability especially in houses - but - for early game, perhaps before you find a backpack and need to pick up that special item, consider this below, Hi-Tops add to carry capacity. You can always ditch them later and move more quietly when you find that Lvl 3 BP...

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Getting First-Person Servers in Monthly Update

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds players will be pleased to hear that dedicated first-person servers are finally making their way into the game later this month. The announcement came via tweet from the Creative Director earlier today [July 14]. A new FOV slider will be added, too.

The announcement states that the dedicated first-person servers would arrive as part of the next monthly update for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, which should be on its way soon. A follow-up tweet explains that the first-person servers will start as a limited release. “We will bring 1st person only to EU/NA SOLO & DUO games first, and once we have polished the system, we will expand to other regions.” The goal is to make sure that the first-person servers are stable before preparing them for a wide release.

You will never pass by a frying again... Seriously, watch the madness at 2:15

The sheer number of players made these stunts that much more delightful. We particularly enjoyed watching the fifty-man squad shoot at a frying pan tied to a guy’s butt. What’s more impressive was just how resilient the frying pan was to the bullet barrage. That’s some quality PUBG right there. ...

This video is worth watching. I think the only thing that has changed is the car don't all spawn facing East anymore.

^thanks Skydance, it's nice to know how the bandage's really work!

This is not to gloat. Only a celebration of my best match EVER! I don't think I'd ever killed more than 2 or 3 people in a single round before, and even then I usually get help/I'm finishing off somebody you guys put down...



(too bad you didn't come back later Bandy, I was " ON FIRE!!! "

[SYN_Bandy]

I did come back, maybe too late, or too early, to catch you...

Congratulations tho!
