>PUBG beats a new record in concurrent player count yet again

Why are you scared? Why do you even pay attention to that game? What impact does it possibly have on your life regardless of how big it gets

This evidence still supports fotm theory.

Typical flavor of the year. I'll enjoy watching it crash and burn.

Give me ONE, I repeat ONE game released this year which has retained it's playerbase as much as PUBG.

You LITERALLY cannot. All the normie games like for honour and all the v games like persona (or the LITERAL fotm tier ones like gravity rush/nioh)

v well and truly btfo.

Is this that game where the dev went into a long rant about how somebody jokingly told him he was gonna get a round house to the face and that triggered his PTSD about some college fight he was involved in?

>pubg

literally who?

>>384917713
Neither of them but it's easily the most popular game released this year. On youtube/twitch/playercount/sales or just how much people talk about it in real life. /v/ never talks about it though

>>384917912

Sounds super popular. I always know to give a "game" a dodge when the only descriptive quality it has is its popularity

>early access multiplayer open world survival etc etc

>>384918195
It is fun, I#m surprised if you haven't heard of it.

A lot of the reason /v/ hates it is because not on consoles/requires a VERY good pc to run/requires skill.

>>384918368

Yeah, I'm sure nobody's interested in it because it's so good.

Oh, it's that game that's been done a thousand times before and they all sucked. People will get bored of it eventually. This kind of game isn't made to be fun.

>>384918484
IRL everyones interested in it.

A lot of people on v can't play it due to pc exclusive/requires a very good pc to run and hence shitpost about it

PC is a fucking meme platform. Every month there is a new meme game for meme streamers to stream for their simple-minded subscribers who have their meme emotes on standby whenever something WOAH happens.

>>384918368
>A lot of the reason /v/ hates it is because not on consoles/requires a VERY good pc to run/requires skill.
It's coming to consoles. Very good PC? No, not really experience varies and it's not based on the power of your PC. It's an optimization issue. As for skill, it only requires you to aim, nothing else to it. Are you implying nobody on /v/ likes FPS games?

>>384916029
Why stop people enjoying a video game?

>>384918681

Yeah so many people are always coming up to me and saying "dude you hear of pub-guh?" It never clicked until now. All that time I spend playing PC games with my friends I never realized none of us had good enough PCs to have heard of pub-guh. Truly a game for the elite.

How the fuck did they blatantly copy H1Z1 and get away with it?

Why arent people playing H1Z1 instead?

>>384918774
It's coming to the xbox soon, but everyone on v owns the ps4 which isn't getting it for ages.

It does require a very good pc, mine can run games like witcher fine but struggles with this. It is down to optimisation.

About skill the amount of "le run for 15 minutes and get shot without warning" does show v as being full of shitters

>>384918681
It requires a powerful PC only because the optimization is so fucking shit and has memory leak issues.

Also
>v
Fuck off back to Plebbit, kid.

>>384918940
It's one of the hardest to run games due to shit optimisation.

If you look at the steam most played it'sby far the most popular non f2p/not very easy to run game.

Check your friends list and it will be one of the most palyed

>>384918727
i really hope you are a switch or wiiu player. otherwise what you have is fifa/cod machine for the majority of the playerbase

The idea just doesn't sound that appealing to me. Trying to be the last one alive seems like it would be a huge time sink. Part of the reason I stopped playing dota is because the matches were so long and stressful.

>>384918941
because streamers started playing this game. Its the same reason gay dad porn hit the top of steam sellers, people don't care about quality as much as they care about playing what the popular streamers are playing.

This game has a lot of the same bugs h1z1 has, the same bugs dayz had, the same bugs dayz mod had. I don't know how much longer the open world survival shit is going to last, but I was hoping one game would streamline the formula enough that it wont run like shit and be glitchy as fuck

>>384918941
Because H1Z1 is utter garbage. Just survive is ultra casual shitty DayZ, and KOTK is the worst Battle Royale game out there. Both the ARMA 3 mod and PUBG are far superior.

>>384919395

"Counter strike" and "warband" are a funny way of pronouncing "pub-guh." I dunno dude this is looking like one of those meme games. I think I'm going to wait for Grimoire to come out, and then maybe I'll check and see if people are still talking about this "pub-guh" or whatever it is.

>>384919558
haaah i remember when that game was supposed to be f2p and the ticket fiasco

pubg is fun but its a pile of shit

Literally only worth playing if you have a group to constantly play with

I have it but I find it kinda boring

You're usually just walking to the circle and looting shit, not actually killing people

Then when it gets to the last 30 or so people left it's just about who can camp the best or who doesn't need to move cause circle rng

>>384919435
It's actually pretty quick, you could get it and play 5/6 games within two hours before refunding

>>384919530
if i was a streamer i'd be taking backdoor deals and play games publishers pay for me to quietly shill. just like those youtube "reviewers".

>>384920615
that's how this game got popular in the first place

>>384920615
no one gets paid by the game owners to regularly stream a given game. total fiction.

>>384919962
Lol no. Solo games are intense as fuck and you don't have to deal with reviving.

>>384916029
Thank you Media Manager working for slightly above minimum wage, you're my only ally. If you didn't come here and post things I honestly wouldn't know what to spend my disposable income on.

>>384917249
Would you call it the Overwatch of 2017?

>>384917480
For honor is valid but single player games obviously won't retain their playerbase in the same way as multiplayer ones.

>>384919773
And when they said they were going to increase the mapsize to be bigger than Chernarus, and add more guns. KOTK got popular and any development for survive died off, and KOTK was doing well so why put in the effort. Only recently they decided to update because PUBG is utterly smashing them.

Yes they deserve to die and I hope they burn in Hell.

>>384923965
is that game still affiliated with sony in some way? i think they were planning a ps4 port

>>384920898
Totally, just like AT&T is only throttling internet for "testing" and not because it's planning on having huge speed caps on websites to encourage its home brand.

>>384917480
>>384918681
who the fucks says ''v''

>>384924118
Yeah, the dev was originally Sony Online Entertainment before it became Daybreak. I'm sure tbey wanted a PS4 version for some retarded reason, like DayZ. Go for the easy money and gimp your game drastically to fit on shitty PS4 hardware so it's shit on PC, followed by an even shittier port to the PS4.

The only good part of this game is the lobby when everyone is yapping about like a retard or playing music.
