Is there even a 3rd person shooter in existence that handles shooting as well as a 1st person shooter like CoD or something similar?

All 3rd person shooters feel clunky, even with FPS mechanics in them.

Because it is the best grand battle game by a mile. There isn't even a real competation for second place.

Fights naturally get more interesting when they are larger scale. The most interesting battle IRL is ww2 because it was so massive. That's the same principle by which grand battle games capture people's attention way more than any other type of vs shooter.

/v/ just hates it because they are contrarian and their explanations for it's success or ignorant, knee-jerk reactions. For example people say it's popular because it's on youtube, all games are on youtube and the developers keep pushing their own games, but that never occured to the /v/tard his mind just remembered the game exists on youtube and he came up with his knee-jerk reaction.

Now watch this post get a reply that nit-picks the game or tries to compare it to some unrelated genre.

>>385590957
/v/ hates it because it is generic. It doesn't do anything that other games haven't done before. There is no personality or flavour to it.

The type of person that visits /v/ is someone who has a wide breadth of video game experience. PUBG is just another "been there, done that" military shooter game. When you've played so many games and something as white bread, milquetoast as this comes around you're bound to be unimpressed.

>>385591206
Then why isn't Planetside more popular if it's all about scale?

>>385591138
Ok retard. The question was not why you personally do not like PUBG, it was why the game is a run away success.

The people that prefer small scale vs shooters over large ones are in the minority. And if you look at the sales of PUBG vs quake and it's many clones this is self-evident.

What you are saying is the equivlent of "No people do not like large scale battles because my favorite battle isn't world war 2 it's this tiny little encounter that was very small scale. See it's 'literally not true' because I disagree!"

Fuck off dumbass, this has nothing to do with personal opinion. PUBG's popularity has very little to do with its scale. PUBG is popular because it's an easy game to play with friends and streamers shill it nonstop. We aren't even talking about real life either, so yes, although WW2 is the most interesting battle irl, scale is one of the least important factors in making a shooter good.

You do realize there are very few grand battle games in existence. It's the opposite of generic retard, it's a rare thing. And as I said the other grand battle games were so undeveloped they might as well not exist.

Sounds to me like what you are whining about is that it's a shooter and you are telling me you hate shooters. Of course you personally do not like retard, you don't like the genre! /v/'s consensus is driven entirely by contrarianism.

Not true. It's a shallow attempt at video game design riding on the current wave of popular trendy games that appear on little johnnys favorite twitch stream. PUBG is a poorly unoptimized early access game already littered with microtransactions and upcoming DLC before it properly gets a full release date. Like with minecraft and its twentymillion clones, DayZ was a harbringer of this disaster we call a video game. With less gameplay than that of ARMA the only saving grace to behold of this game is it's multiplayer component in which online lag and unoptimization come together to make a truly god awful experience for anyone looking for deep gameplay interactions. Not only this but third person over the shoulder military man shooter games are a cesspool of filth from the past. This game truly shows that marketing is everything.

Different anon. You're correct that it's rare to find actual battle royale games. The problem is how it's executed and this is from looking at gameplay.

The reason why anon said that it's generic is probably the style of the game, not the core mechanics. It looks similar to Day Z and other open-world survival games visually and some of the mechanics are similar e.g looting. Honestly, it looks more like a mod of ARMA which is what it's based off.

If PUBG had more polish and spice to it such as different maps, weapons, and a different aesthetic, /v/ might give it a chance.

>>385592392
>>385592519
also it's hilarious that he argued it's bad because it's 'generic' right after he was told /v/ only hates things because they are contrarian.

Hating something that is generic or common is the very defination of being contrarian. Which proves the point.

We've had 2 different confessions that they only hate it because it's the contrarian thing to do. To say "I hate generic things" is to say you are a hipster. Generic means common, and a hipster is a person who hates common things.

There are plenty of members of /v/ playing it, given that /v/ is not a secret club but average players. However it would violate the contrarian culture to admit to it having played and enjoyed it, as a result the number of hate-posters is going to be larger.

What people say about a game online actually has very little to do with what they think. You learn that when you study a bit of marketing. People will lie about what they enjoy or want for the most petty of reasons. It's all monkey signals.

Is that "Gamers"? If so that show is fucking trash.

I don't think there's a single pubg thread yet that hasn't devolved into "Why is it so popular it's shit/why aren't you playing it?" It's literally H1Z1 except not hot garbage. It's not amazing to the point where it warrants constant discussion either.

I'm inclined to believe the only people who make pubg threads on on 4chan want to make people hate the game.

>>385593193
>performs like shit
that's valid

If, before it got big, the game were to shut down suddenly from being unpopular. I'm sure it would go down in /v/'s memory as a beloved classic lost due to FUCKING NORMIES.

A couple of new weapons were added somewhat recently, and I can only assume more will in the near future. Though they said it will be removed from Early Access at the end of 2017 so who knows.

It confuses me that big publishers like EA haven't cashed in on the battle royale craze yet. They just need some actually competent developers to make a game that doesn't handle like Big Rigs, give it some polish and people will buy the shit out of it.

>/v/ said so so it's true

Has it ever occured to you that maybe people play it because it's extremely casual and non punishing (you can play the game with your brain turned off for an hour every week, disconnect without penalty, no scoreboard, losing has no effect, winning makes no difference), multiplayer, designed to be played with friends, cheap, survival and with a simplistic yet addictive concept? These are elements that appeal to a very wide audience.

Your logic is that it's popular because streamers play it. Maybe, JUST MAYBE, streamers play it because it's popular and not the other way around? Of course someone who makes a living by playing video games will play the popular one. 5 fucking million people bought the game and 200k are playing it constantly, and I can assure you than only a fraction of a very tiny amount of those people care or watch streams. Not to mention, even if a fantasy world where every single person got into the game because of streamers, they wouldn't continue to play the game if it was that bad and they didn't like it, would they? What's the next thing, Zelda is only popular because it was made to appeal to toddlers? Soulsborne are popular ONLY because of the prepare to die meme, youtube montages, speedrunners and streamers? Or does it work only with games you decided you have to hate on for some reason?

We've been riding the meme train for so fucking long people are unironically believing this shilling nonsense. I didn't even buy the damn game but this is becoming pathetic.

Its about as "early access" as minecraft was before it was released. it's just called early access because they have new items and mechanics to add, but the core gameplay is there so it's honestly closer to a released game that has free DLC.

>>385600064
And just because something is popular doesn't mean its bad. That's the appeal to neckbeard fallacy, common on the internet.

I think it's good, its a tactical squad based game that is fairly hardcore (even though 3rd person is a bit of a meme) with a challenging yet rewarding shooting mechanic all based within a fairly unique (it being the first stand alone game of its type, H1Z1 doesn't count as that's just a joke).

Most people have wanted to experience the battle royale feeling of being pitted against others in combat area where you have to fight to survive, its just happens that PUBG has been the fist one to do that in a decent standalone format that is accessible to new players and doesn't have 30 minute wait times or require installings 8+ mods.

And I never said that it did mean that it's bad. You're the one claiming that millions of users can't possibly be wrong about the quality of the game, not me.

And by the way battle royale games existed way before h1z1. GunZ, TFC etc.

I don't know. A big issue with third person, in my opinion, is it allows you to peek around corners without exposing any part. Also driving in third person is super cheesy in my opinion, since when you are in a vehicle your vision is naturally restricted and you can completely circumvent that.

That was not my assertion, my assertion was that blaming popularity on bandwagoning off streamers is straight up wrong and people play games because they enjoy playing it regardless of its quality (and because quality is subjective why should we say otherwise).
Such as assertion would be impossible to argue because every year a new COD is released with massive sales.
>GunZ
I really fail to see how a sword/anime style freeware game from korea is at all relatable to a proper battle royale scenario.

>>385590440
Battle Royale games are the new assfaggots

>>385601504
>hardcore typically denotes harder mechanics which would mean better players are likely to win more often,
Then I guess OSU is the most hardcore game in the world.

>>385601504
>quality is subjective

Not entirely. For example if mario ducked when you pressed up and jumped when you pressed down, this is objectively poor quality.

>GunZ

Because swords and anime don't define battle royale. The price tag doesn't define battle royale. The developer's location doesn't define battle royale either. You moron.

A battle royale - to me - implies a lot of players competing in a free for all until there's one man standing.

GunZ had this. TFC had this. Lots of games had this. h1z1 is by no means the first. Not by a long shit.

>>385601668
desu that's partly a good thing. It's shit, but it's a step in the right direction: add respawns, and you literally have the arena shooter genre.

At least, you do away with global gear progression and experienced players being "better" than others just because they have better gear, and instead they're "better" because they played the game more.

>>385601898
I know that, but once in a while normies like something that's actually good.

>>385601836
That's still not as good as the better player being better because they are just a better player.

>>385590440
>100 randos get thrown on an island and fuck around on it trying to kill one another to be the last person alive
simplifying it even further
>throw bunch of people into an open battlefield and have them duke it out
I feel like this game operates on a similar energy to games like agar.io or diep.io. They're extremely easy to get into and their combination of a highly volatile nature and open environment applied to a high player count battle royale tickles something primal in people. Even if I'm kinda stretching it to draw that comparison, maybe you'll get the idea. There's no other reason so many people would actually chug out $30 for this game.

>>385601790
hmm, I don't know enough about OSU mechanics to comment on that.
But you might be right, if OSU is extremely hard to master and understand the many mechanics then I would say it is pretty hardcore.
Hardcore is about how forgiving the game is to players in a nutshell.
>>385601830
I was basing my view of what is should be off the movie Battle Royale, your description is more of just an arena battle.

>>385602135
>your description is more of just an arena battle

Oh so it's another genre with an ambiguous name that has no bearing on its content (like MOBA.) Got it.

>>385601898
>he means its normieshit

Doom has been THE normieshit for a good couple of years and it's still a great game.
Quake has also enjoyed a time when everyone from your little brother to that "cute" girl at work had played it.

>>385602135
>Hardcore is about how forgiving the game is to players in a nutshell.
And less makes a game more chance based because it means consistency is less important.

>>385602308
How much are they paying you? Just curious.

>>385598660
>All of 4chan is one person and it's me

>>385602248
We have a fundamental disagreement on what a Battle royale is as a genre.
>>385602337
Less hardcore makes the game more chance based because the game gives them padding to make up for their lack of skill/knowledge? If that's what you are trying to say then I agree, I couldn't really understand your comment very well desu

>>385602502
If people die in one hit it means you only need to get lucky once to get a kill.

I hate that I bought into the DayZ desaster. It left such a bitter feeling inside of me, I still don't want to give other similar games a try.

Also I'm honestly mad that PUBG has such a retarded name.

>>385602801
Hmm, maybe in a game like COD.
But you could argue that if people die in one hit then map knowledge, tactics,player positioning, prefiring and accuracy is more important in the long run.
This is why CS:GO is a far more competitive/hardcore game than any other shooter.

It's another shallow zombie crafting game with shallow combat that's popular and will be forgotten in weeks.

The only people who play it are idiots who got tricked into buying the game due to the game being shilled by streamers.

Free to play or not, there are way too many already, and no one is taking PUBG's spot anytime soon.

The dude is a solid reference (Arma2/3 mods etc), updates constantly his game and listen to the community, literally every single big streamer is on it; and the biggest rival talking about numbers is H1Z1, a game with 2 weapons worth using, in early-access since more than 1 year now.

>>385607308
But you chose to play like that, it's not the game's fault.
>get top 10 or win after spending 20-30 minutes doing nothing
There are no scoreboards, you don't win anything in particular by finishing first, and absolutely nothing happens when you die or disconnect. It was not designed to be competitive and skill based. So why on earth would you play in a way that you don't find fun and complain later?

Why not drop where most people drop, get a weapon/armor/helmet/bag in the first 2 houses and start hunting people? Don't know about you, but I'd rather finish 60th while having killed 10 guys with sick actions and lots of intense moments than finish first but with just one kill while camping in a corner the whole game.
Of course it's gonna be shit when you do everything you can to make it as shit as possible.

>>385608494
>There are no scoreboards

>>385607939

>>385608768
Yes, this is the problem. And the game has been very boring the past few weeks because vast majority of players are playing this way.

>>385591809
Probably, the anime is full of errors. The first episode had four people playing not-Counter Strike, and the scoreboards showed players A and B on team 1 and C and D on team 2, when the characters were talking about how A was being too rough on B because A was killing B all the time and B was new to the game.

>>385608841
People are being fucking brainwashed by streamers to think that this mediocre garbage is good. I can agree on that.

But PUBG is still a garbage game with many issues that aren't going to be solved because money has been made ignoring said problems.

>>385608986
Indeed, but 350k people are playing it as we speak and I'm part of them because I still find it fun and no games gives me the same feeling as having a chicken dinner in PUBG; even winning multiple H1Z1 games it just felt like winning some arcade game filled with retards.

I don't understand how a game that looks this bad and performs like shit is allowed to cost 40$

Not enforcable in any court, unfortunately it will never get that far but we'll be beat over the head with it anyway.

As the rule being a rule: fine, ban whatever.
However, I disagree with the rule in principle.

If you want to create a player divide between streamer/non-streamer, fine but I'm out and refunding when it's out of EA.

The selective enforcement is nuts though. i've reported streamers I was watching that would team up in Solo. Not a damn thing happened and that's a much graver offence than stream sniping. But I do it a day later since nothing happened? Ding dong temp bannu.

>>385608686
How is anyone forcefed? There are countless games like that, nobody said you have to buy them all. What's wrong with having choice? It's a genre that's popular, what can I say. Fighting games are popular for exemple, and there are fighting games for everyone.

And you call cancer everything you don't like, I think MGS is cancer, and yet there are people enjoying it.

>>385610595
Do you have any actual argument other than "goy" and muh skins? How is your answer related in any way to mine? Why would a skin be added to my shirt collection? I don't play the game, I didn't buy the game, and I've never bought skins in my life. What now?

There is a manga and it's legit one of the best I've ever read

http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Battle-Royale/Chapter-001?id=287359

>>385590307

main reason for this is developers mostly use 1st person as a crutch of sorts

it allows them to generally simplify controls, encourages slower less varied movement (with a few notable exceptions) and prevents a need for more complex animations and mechanics

3rd person perspective obviously has way more potential in these areas but the bottom line is most devs actually just can't pull that off so they go for a more generic 1st person style instead

some good examples Max Payne, Lost Planet 1&2, MGSV, Vanquish etc...

>>385590440

The Battle Royale genre in video games has been brewing for a while now
with games like H1Z1 and The Culling

PUBG was just the final breakthrough for the genre
its not really perfect by a long shot its just better than all those other games

The real question is why is Battle Royale popular as a genre

>>385612536

i think people are bored of how battlefield games are now, where you spawn into gunfire half the time and die randomly. people want some downtime between fights.
