Anyway, I’m getting riled up here lol. Back to the story. The Madison folks were doing great work, so they began to take on more and more worldbuilding work. Miramar came about as result of collaboration between the new, PUBG Madison team and the Korean team at HQ in Se
The first thing to understand is that if you’re just starting up a team, you’ve got to lean on asset store work because that’s the only way you can spin up a game fast, and for a reasonable price, to quickly find the fun. Hiring an art team of 40 people to “try a game” and “see if it’s fun” is simply not a smart way to work—this is what the asset store is for! It’s a great resource for teams that want to work sm
PUBG is a flurry of activity at the moment with the various updates and weapon balances , however, is it a case of too little too late? Fortnite has been a literal powerhouse of late, meaning that even some of the most hardened PUBG players have jumped ship for the more colorful delights of Fornite . And there’s only more competition on the way with E3 2018 around the corner sure to debut multiple new battle royale experiences. Whether or not **PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ** can be the goose that laid the golden crate remains to be seen, but one’s thing for sure, there’s gold in them thar hi
Rigney went on to assure fans that the most recent map, the Sanhok jungle map, was made with even less pre-made assets, and that the upcoming winter map , will have an even higher ratio of original cont
Because we’re steadily investing more and more in building our internal art teams (along with lots of other teams), Miramar used fewer external assets than Erangel, and Sanhok used fewer still. Our fourth map, the one coming out this winter, uses fewer still, but if we’re smart it’ll almost certainly still involve some mix of assets from different sources. This is a good th
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds may not have created the battle royale genre, but it certainly popularized it. Since its explosion in popularity in 2017, a number of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ” clones” have popped up, including some mobile games that are blatant copies of PUBG , as well as games that offer enough fresh ideas to become something entirely different, such as Fortnite . Developer PUBG Corp. has attempted to sue Fortnite and other games for their similarities to its game, a decision that has been criticized since PUBG itself has been accused of being an “asset fl
Either way, players can’t interact with the chests (yet), meaning the latest addition is nothing more than a golden easter egg right now. It is likely that the chests will eventually open to reveal something big, but on the other hand, Bluehole could simply be trolling gamers as a nod to Fortnite ‘s treasure chests. It may be a way to bury the hatchet between the two studios, but it would undoubtedly leave players miffed that the chests turn out to be a Pulp Fiction -style McGuf
For those who have been out of the loop with the latest on PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds , the Event Pass was originally meant to be a way for players to track progress made in-game – in a similar vein to Fortnite ‘s Battle Pass – and earn exclusive loot outside of the standard crate system. While it’s unfortunate that the feature is not working the way Bluehole Studio intended, at least the developer is offering additional XP for players’ troubles. Those interested can find the company’s details for PUBG ‘s bonus XP event be
In the same discussion of the similarities between the two titles, Chang Han Kim, had also implied possible legal action against Epic Games, especially following reference to Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds in the marketing for Fortnite’s battle-royal mode. Now it seems that the company decided to follow through on these warni
“But our name was used to officially promote their game without our knowledge. There was no discussion. It was just a bit surprising and disappointing to see our business partner using our name officially to promote the game mode that is pretty similar to us and there was misunderstanding in the community that we’re officially involved in the proje
These sorts of issues are pretty much always more complicated than the Reddit meme version of the story (“hehe XD asset flip”) so keep that in mind whenever you see someone telling oversimplified ta
“Why should one of my artists spend two weeks on a generic sculpt if they could instead spend that two weeks adding real value for players elsewhere? How many times should a telephone booth be modeled? How many times do we gotta sculpt a cash regist
It’s important to remember now that regardless of how successful PUBG online Guide Corp. and Bluehole are, new battle-royal titles are appearing at a faster and faster rate. The main example of this is coming later this year with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 , which is set to feature a battle-royal mode called Blackout and is sure to also cut into other games player bases. The point is that there is no stopping the tide and most fans just want all these games to live together in harmony. Is that too much to
