Why are DoA fapbait threads made every day?

Because it's a story driven single player experience.

No. It's bad, and wrong. There should be a new, stronger word for PUBG like badwrong, or badong. Yes! PUBG is badong. From this moment, I will stand for the opposite of PUBG, gnodab.

It's number one (first) on Twitch.tv
And you can play as a girl and play dress up with her (with guns).

What even is this game? I just see it anywhere but have no fucking clue what it is, where it came from, or why it succeeded.

what is it

Its a decent core game surrounded by a different mode than most of its playerbase is used to. Run n gun respawn games get old fast, and is pretty much the same every game. There is some variance when you have to loot weapons and the safe zone spawns randomly, on a pretty big map

When is the new map supposed to come out?

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is a multiplayer online battle royale video game developed and published by Bluehole. The game is based on previous mods that were developed by Brendan "PlayerUnknown" Greene for other games using the 2000 film Battle Royale for inspiration, and expanded into a standalone game under Greene's creative direction. In the game, up to one hundred players parachute onto an island and scavenge for weapons and equipment to kill others while avoiding getting killed themselves. The available safe area of the game's world decreases in size over a match, directing surviving players into tighter areas and forcing encounters. The last player or team standing wins the round.
The game was released for Microsoft Windows on Steam's early access program in March 2017, selling over ten million copies within six months, which made it one of the most played games on the platform. Bluehole plans console releases following the full release of the Windows version, with an Xbox One version with publishing support by Microsoft Studios by the end of 2017.

I thought it was just shit streamerbait but I actually think it's a very good game.
Sure, it has major flaws but if the devs keep updating it regularly, it'll turn even better
Right now the things that need to be addressed
>vehicle physics
>optimization ( runs like ass on weaker PC's )
>vaulting
>the parachuting feels incredibly bugged
>needs more guns
>it's frustrating that the last few rings of the zone will fuck you up instantly if you're unlucky, give players like 1 minute more time on each one

The vehicle physics aren't terrible if we're just talking about driving, it's the collision physics that are totally fucked.

The optimization is absolutely shit too, definitely. My laptop isn't great, but I can only get CLOSE to 60 fps on the lowest settings, where I could run a lot of other modern games on medium settings with no major hiccups.

3rd person should also NOT be the standard mode of play. It's pretty bullshit that people can hide behind trees/walls and still be able to track your movements. It rewards campers in the worst ways.

Unlike Dota 2, PUBG isn't kept afloat by nostalgia
