Title: PUBG adding paid event pass

Quote
"If you haven’t paid for the pass, you can temporarily unlock many of the items (and earn one special item permanently). However, you can also permanently unlock a ton of exclusive reward items by paying to unlock the pass and completing certain missions to 'level up' your pass.

"If you’re hesitant about buying the Pass, but want to play the missions, you’re free to do that. And your mission progress is always tracked, so you can buy the Event Pass late in the event and still get all the rewards you’ve earned."

10 bucks.

These greedy cunts have no fucking respect. Battle Pass in Fortnite costs money because it's a f2p game.

rocket league has been out for a few years, has pretty frequent tournaments, and actually works though. pubg is still a buggy peice of shit and every event they've attempted has been a joke

Except they already have lootboxes, paid-DLC cars, and numerous other means of fleecing people for money. Psyonix doesn't need YET ANOTHER means of getting more money from folks.

PUBG is just as bad, if not worse. But let's not condone this shitty practice of "battle passes" or whatever the fuck they want to call "season passes of temporary cosmetic" bullshit.

I'm still dining on PUBG's spaghetti code, dumpster diving while you pooh-pooh but that's the French in you.

My little cousin is actually buying this crap.

And Black Ops 4 too - the 100 dollar edition.

I kinda want to punch his dumbass in the fucking face.

 I was actually thinking that I have been getting a lot better and the optimization on this new map is more fluid than on the other maps. I no longer get drops below 70..

Yeah the cheaters etc suck but honestly I havent been killed by many cheaters I could actually identify.

Im hyped to see where this game goes. I hope they tone the cosmetic and event pass shit wayyy down, and focus more on the actual optimization on the other big maps.

Mobile version is still head and shoulders better than the PC version. Which is royally sad.

Better how? Then again, the mobile version doesn't have Sanhok which is probably the best map they've released thus far.

Sure the mobile version might be bug free, but you still forced to play on your phone.

Sure the mobile version might be bug free,

And has/had more features at launch than PUBG proper does/did.

I could not care about "sure, but you have to play on your phone. Ew touch controls." I give a shit about the product and the product's mobile offering is 20x better than it's PC offering. Again: Royally sad. PUBG/Bluehole has had 1,000,000+ sales and they're too focused on fleecing for skins instead of optimizations before new maps/new skins/etc.

You're not wrong but personally I still rather play on PC.
