One user, a YouTuber known as Battle(non)sense, analyzes and tests the more technical aspects of popular video games like the netcode, then posting the results to their channel. With a glut of popular battle royale games currently available, the user took it upon themselves to test out the most popular ones including Ring of Elysium , Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 , Fortnite , Pubg missions|https://pubgfrontierzone.com/ , and Apex Legends . Battle(non)sense ultimately tested network delay for all of these games and went a step further by comparing a set list of netcode related features they of

PUBG has already struggled with monetization problems, frequently being accused of exploitative payment models that offer too little from a content-to-cost ratio. Most recently, PUBG came under fire for its event pass system , which required an inordinate amount of time from players to complete just to unlock the items they had paid for - the pass also cost $9.99 USD and was a time sensitive item. That, coupled with locked loot boxes on an already heavily criticized progression system, has seen the reputation of PUBG 's predatory microtransactions become even worse in recent mon

The Rajkot Special Operations Group (SOG) have been enforcing the law, but those breaking it are not hiding their crimes very well. Three youths were arrested near the police headquarters. SOG police inspector Rohit Raval stated, "This game is highly addictive and the accused were so engrossed in playing them that they could not even notice our team approaching them." He goes on to state that they had their mobile phones seized "for the purpose of the investigati

Even with these potential networking problems, fans continue to flock to the free to play shooter thanks in large part to its engaging gameplay, fun mechanics, and fresh take on the saturated genre. More content could be right around the corner as dataminers have found new details for upcoming characters like Octane as well as a Battle Pass for players to unlock even more content on a seasonal ba

PUBG has also been openly criticized about the decisions being made behind the scenes of the game, especially those regarding skins and other cosmetic items usually purchased through microtransactions. The infamous Suicide Squad collaboration from last year raised the ire of many a player for the frankly ridiculous cost of some simple cosmetic costumes, and the game's marketplace on Steam has gone through several iterations of comedic inflation on sought-after items. That's not necessarily a bad thing, of course, but PUBG also has been losing ground when it comes to pure play, with many believing Fortnite to be a more enjoyable experience while Apex Legends has more refined and skill-intensive mechanics. Where once there was a clear niche PUBG occupied, now the game's identity has begun to wa

While PUBG 's addition of the DCEU Joker & Harley Quinn skins is an obvious nod to competitor Fortnite 's Infinity War event earlier this summer, there are a few differences that make PUBG 's decision much more of an issue for fans. First, unlike Fortnite , which is free-to-play, PUBG costs $29.99, which means the Joker and Harley Quinn skins cost nearly as much as the full game. Second, Fortnite 's crossover event happened during the summer the movie launched, while PUBG 's partnership with Suicide Squad comes two years after the movie was in theat

Unfortunately, things don't seem to be getting any better in the land of PUBG , as Game Revolution reports the Joker skin will reportedly run players $20 while Harley Quinn is $25. That isn't even for dead-on representations of those two characters as they appear in Suicide Squad , either - the skins are costume sets, so they merely alter the player's model to look mostly like the character they've chosen. Needless to say, fans are disappointed by the high cost of the costume packs, which can be bought individually for equally unsettling prices. Fans who just want to purchase Joker's makeup, for instance, will still need to shell out $5, while Harley Quinn's bat is

Shockingly, the test did not go well for Apex Legends . The test was conducted on the PC version of each of these games at multiple times in the day between two players on the same server with a ping of about 25 milliseconds each. At the end of the day, Apex Legends featured the highest amount of network delay (highest, shortest, and average numbers) between the damage, gunfire, and movement categories. Black Ops 4 's Blackout followed next with slightly better numbers but overall much higher than what would be considered normal. Fortnite ultimately came back with the smallest network lag numbers with both Ring of Elysium and PUBG close beh

PlayerUnknown _ 's _ **BATTLEGROUNDS ** ' Erangel, the map that arguably kickstarted the battle royale craze, is finally getting a much-needed facelift and mechanical overhaul later this summer. PUBG is one of the most successful battle royale titles of all time, although the game has recently fallen on harder times with the subsequent successes of the now much more popular Fortnite and, to a lesser extent, Apex Legends ,
