Who-the-fuck's Battlegrounds hits 3mil sales

They're fads, no use to get mad about as in 6 months a new one will be put in its place

Anon, our hobby has been ruined for over 10 years now.

Yes, no need at all to worry that every company has started going for the nu-Blizzard tactics

>>379440090
theres worse popular games out there. at the very least it provides a game style thats different from most others

>>379440090
Can't wait for Blizzard to release their copy of pubg with sexualized girls and see how /v/ eats that shit up completely

>>379440090
have you played the game?

It's pretty fun for anyone who has any experience playing arma or other shooters because everyone is terrible.

>>379440338
>H1Z1 has been out for 2+ years and its just going to die any second now
The literal only way H1Z1 and PUBG die is if a big publisher gets one of their well known studios like DICE to make one for consoles and PC.

The fault of every single one of these games is poor optimization, shit servers, bugs, and just poor polish.

>>379440090

There's that buzzword again. this is another "game" with no story, no atmosphere, no characters, no soul.
It will be replaced by yet another open world survival crafting free for all garbage within a year and everybody will forget this eever existed.
Twitch-bait is the fast food of video games. They don't bring a memorable experience, they just shove this waste down your throat until the next thing comes, and when your favorite developers see just how easy and low effort this market is to abuse, we are fucked

FF7 could be the most popular case of this happening to video games, where developers realized that you could get away with so much shit to the point other developers just copy-paste the mindless jrpg formula for easy money.
I'd rather THIS type of games to be the next thing instead of mobas though, Have you ever been into a moba, overwatch or whatever FoM is that includes sexualized girls? People in there almost never talk about game mechanics (if they even exist), at least this game you could discuss strategies without it being ruined by waifu fags

game: noun; a form of play or sport, especially a competitive one played according to rules and decided by skill, strength, or luck.

It's much easier for the masses to agree on fun gameplay than on compelling story, immersive atmosphere, likeable characters, etc.

No matter what, any game that's purely gameplay will be the most popular if that gameplay is good. See: every single game at the top 10 from steam.

>>379441616
Things would be much easier if your just killed yourself.

>>379440090
I think the game is shit, but who cares. Videogames are meant for fun. As long as people are having fun, then they're fulfilling their purpose.

>>379442651
Just to add to that, everyone agrees that sex is good, but specific fetishes are always comparative minority.
Just look at the most viewed porn videos on any site, it's the generic heterosexual vanilla shit with perhaps anal thrown in. No context, no fetishes other than the most obvious.

It's a battle royale game. You and other people have to kill each other and the last person to survive wins. That's pretty much the concept.
You don't like it, I understand that. You also have to understand that people are going to ignore your cries.

I like it.

No ones criticisms of the game ever addres the actual gameplay. If you find it boring, or think the mechanics are way off somehow, ok so be it. Atmosphere and presentation and performance could also be improved no denying it, but there truly is an element of "it's popular so I hate it" going on here

>>379441616

>no story, no atmosphere, no characters, no soul.

putting story and characters in games is what attracted the progressive sjw rats to gaming in the first place.

The less there is of that stuff the better imo.
I'd say that games should only have backstories and nothing else. Devs should build a world and atmosphere and let the players do what they want.

someone make a BR game that doesn't include long-range sniping bullshit

I actually like PUBG.
It actually feels responsive unlike ShitZ and H1Z1. I mean, you can actually use melee weapons in this game. It does need some polishing and more content though. The optimization is fucking trash, it sometimes is unplayable because of FPS drops.

>>379440090
As much as I hate to admit it, for 30 dollars, it's a solid purchase that'll give you a good amount of fun for a decent amount of time.

>>379444426
>It does need some polishing and more content though.
spoiler: it won't ever get it. another game will release that will be slightly better and everyone will flock to it, thus you will eventually follow. it's shovelware. it's okay to enjoy the game but don't expect anything longterm from it.

>>379444574

PUBG is fun as fuck.

>b-b-buh i dont have any friends to play with

Shoulda not been such a faggot in high school, Anon.

How exactly is fun not a buzzword? It's basically saying you can't find a real reason why the game is good. Being amused by something is not an indicator that is is has quality

>Well-made game that perfectly fulfills a specific niche gets popular
Wow, such a terrible thing.

its pretty much the laziest thing i've ever played, half expected player characters to just start T posing around because they couldn't be arsed to do the animations

Are there any games like this that are single player and not STALKER? I like the looting and scavenging aspect of these kinds of games but hate the 40 minutes of waiting while a circle closes.

So, whats the difference between this game and H1Z1 or Dayz?

Heck, at least rust has building.

>>379446543
you know they just reset the leaderboards, right? Either way
>bragging about that
top KEK

As someone who bought it, played for an hour and a half, and refunded, it's an alright game.
It's easily the most polished of these early access meme games, and in fact, the animations are better than some AAA games (looking at you Wildlands).
I'll keep an eye on it, maybe I'll get it again when it drops to $20 or lower.

It's a fun game, but only if you have friends

Every idiot on my steam friendlist is playing this. I'm sick of seeing/hearing about this game because it's the most shallow and boring experience out there. The whole nature of battle royale favors dull playstyles, and the combat system is possibly the least skill intensive out there. I can't wait until it gets replaced by the next flavor of the month meme game.
