PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds’ glitches and unpolished graphics were as much a part of the experience as its fresh twists on survival mode when it launched on Steam in May 2017. Widespread technical issues are generally thought to be enough to prevent a game from attracting a large audience, but as any Bethesda RPG can prove, that is not always the case.
Millions were happy to forgive the battle royale genre’s breakthrough hit, many of them even embracing its unpredictable goofiness. You’d struggle to count all the livestreams and YouTube videos of players laughing as car collisions fling their vehicles into the sky, where they dance frantically like two metal whirligigs towards the horizon.
Will Black Ops 4 be any good? We dunno, but we do have a list of the best FPS games on PC.
One year and an official release later, a lot of PUBG’s jank is still entwined with the experience, if slightly lessened by numerous bug fixes. The same can be said for battle royale’s other behemoth, Fortnite, which has its own share of technical issues born out of Epic Games pivoting their focus towards the emerging genre late into the game’s development.
These technical faults haven’t been much of a hang up, though, as both games continue to bring in millions of pounds each month. In fact, that lack of polish seems to have become a staple of the genre now. It was even used as a selling point for Boss Key’s last-ditch attempt to save itself, Radical Heights, which was promoted as being in "X-TREME Early Access.”
