Wow, this game literally had no real hype or momentum going for it until they released the free 'Battle Royale' update and now it's just exploded. I personally played it myself for about 5 matches and havent touched it since, I think its too slow paced for me.

And this is 100% hurting PUBG because they were going to be the first Battle Royale game on consoles and that has been taken away from them, and by atleast 2 months. It's cost them atleast my purchase because I was super hyped to buy the game as I can't run it on my PC but having played Fortnite and not really enjoyed it I am not going to spend £40 on PUBG, infact when Fortnite is free what the heck is the point in anyone paying for PUBG.
