I’m strongly in the PUBG camp. Can’t wait until it’s out on PS4.

Fortnight is free, pubg asks you to pay to help beta test.

So fortnight is better

Pubg has a cool team death match event running this weekend that is way more accessible than the battle Royale mode.
I hope they keep it because I can't spend thirty minutes looting and then die in the second shootout.

Haven't tried fortnite but I had about given up playing pubg due to the time commitment.

I have no interest in either, but of the people I know who play them it seems like a generational thing.

All the kids (under 18) I know play Fortnight on console and all the bitter "PC masterz raze!" men (all over 30) play PUBG.

I played pubg a little last week. I agree it feels like a lot of time spent waiting, on the plane, getting to the ground and running around finding gear.

I like it better in team play. If you get someone decent on your team who lives it's fun.

A lot of PUBG's timing issues should be improved when they release the new blue zone time schedule.  It looks like they are going to try quicker times between circle moves in the mid game to keep things moving and slower moving circles towards the end to diminish the effect of circle luck in the end game.

Should be nice.

Just started playing PUBG mobile this week. Enjoying it so far.

It’s either feast or famine when I play though. Out in the first 3 minutes or make it to the end. There is no in between.

That still doesn't address the very steep learning curve and lack of effective ability to jump in and just practice like BF4 on locker/metro.  The school is what it is but it's really a weapon scramble more than anything else.

It's a cool game but there are some really annoying aspects to it.

I only voted for Fortnite because I see it trending on social media and I have played it once with my nephew. What is PUBG? The past video game I was into was GoldenEye 007 on N64.

Speaking of which, just purchased a copy of Perfect Dark on N64 for my kids to enjoy.

PUBG is the more realistic one. Can’t build structures with it and you can drive vehicles.

Pubg is just a death match. You start out with nothing and run around finding guns and body armor. You can drive cars and boats. The play area gets smaller over time and you slowly die if you get caught outside the play zone.

And glitchy.

I was not able to pick up ammo or bandages/energy last night at all. The only way to get a gun with ammo was pick up a new one.

Also, if I dropped a gun then picked it back up, the ammo disappeared.

Just from a fit and finish standpoint and how the games run, Fortnite if you must play on console, PUBG but only on PC.

Battle royale isn't my jam, so I don't play either.  I've tried PUBG on XBox, it's a glitchy piece of shit borderline unplayable hot mess, and I've only played one or two games of Fortnite on PC, just ain't for me.

I like Fo4tnite better when they do the 50v50 or the squads of 20 events.

Easier to actually survive for more than 5 seconds against the twitch kiddies.

If they would make the big squad or 50v50 permanent on either that will be my preferred platform.

PUBG hardly has any learning curve. Couple of games and you have the concept down. It's really simple compared to most other games.

Play Pubg mobile along the IPad and like to it. Only time it’s glitchy is with the 8x scope movement.

Kids play Fortnite, too cartoony for me.

parachute gliding down with missing people
the trike machine that's fucking possessed
random rocks/bumps in the road or fields
falling through the map into the underworld

etc.

I prefer fortnite since it's less buggy and hackers are rampant on PUBG.

I can only get headshotted by a pistol while parachuting so many times before I get bored.

Or flip my motorcycle 20 feet into the air by hitting a small rock.

Or falling through the floor for no reason.
