PUBG as e -sports: cs: go and dota 2 will have to be squeezed
It is common for a person to judge everything by himself. This is what I, like Homo, as it seems to me, is Sapiens and I’m going to do. I will prove that Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds has a gorgeous e -sports prospects, despite current problems. I will use the arguments purely empirical, popularly known as “I brush so”.
So, 2017 was the year of PUBG, despite the fact that the final release of the game took place a few days before 2018. The game spent most of the year in early access mode, and almost all this period was abundantly watered with waste waste, among the people known as … And, okay, they drove. The main thing is that they watered right. It was difficult to count with so many bugs on sprinkling rose petals.
Fortunately, I, as the author of the blog called “Lost in Time,” became late for Pabji and did not see the initial disgrace that they write about. But many have seen, and this did not prevent PUBG from updating the records on Steam and the number of sales, and by peak number of players.
Probably this is what intrigued me the most. The game beats records, but at the same time has an indecently low average assessment on the stiminum, and any thread with its mention instantly turns into a ru … (battle?), in which the haters feel quite confident. Although no. Even more than me as a man of greedy impressed the price of Playerunknown Set on Steam and similar sites. Those who did not regret about 40 bucks for the advanced version of the game during beta testing received this gear, the price of which at the end of the year took off to $ 1,000 and above. If you trust the sources worthy of trust, Seth entered the top ten most expensive skins in 2017. If among readers there is one of the insightful owners of this treasure, respect to you and sincere envy.
But closer to business. “What is the joke? »I thought and https://gamesnotongamstop.co.uk/review/bubbles-bet/ went to YouTube with the goal of a couple of minutes to make sure that I am not interested in all this, I do not like shooters and, in general, it’s time to sleep.
As a result, I lay down in two hours in two hours. Honestly, this happened to me for the first time. For two hours in a row you can’t play yourself, but to watch how others play … I did not expect like that. Understand me correctly, I respect e -sports and believe in it as in the most popular sport of the future, but I even have football – the love of childhood – I have almost never watched for several years, what can we say about video games. What is even more surprising, over the course of these two hours I was not just staring at the monitor and had a loud tea loudly, but worried, as during a good thriller, and even laughed, like a good comedy (all the good comedies were shot by Monti Pieton, as you know). Since then, I have been firmly convinced that the claims of PUBG developers to e -sports success have been justified entirely. Actually, now I am one of those who definitely will not regret a few hours of time to watch a large Pabji tournament with a prize fund of a couple of tens of millions of dollars.
However, much smaller tournaments have already been held and in many ways disappointed. Firstly, bugs of broadcasts were added to the bugs of the game. Secondly, it turned out that with a couple of thousands of bucks to the stake, players suddenly begin to behave much more carefully than in the game of interest, and an increased number of rifles on the map does not save the position. As a result, the audience is deprived of bright uterine and cheerful killings by a pan.
In general, I understand why PUBG as e -sports is still quite raw. Nevertheless, I have no doubt that over time he will take his. My arguments? First of all, of course, a precious personal opinion, which could be more important? I don’t play Lol or Dota 2, but without it it is simply impossible to watch them. Who will understand the devilry that occurs on the screen is purely to glave? I played CS, but I can’t watch it for a long time, because monotony quickly causes boredom. It is necessary to play a lot more hours with your own hands than I did, then to admire the skill of others for hours. And so I first looked at Pubg, without playing it, and instantly stick to the monitor.
In fact, we are talking not only about personal impressions, but also about the more general concept of the low threshold of entry. In the case of PUBG, you do not need preliminary preparation to understand what is happening on the screen, and become interested in the process. This is related by Pabji with traditional team sports, such as football or basketball. You can watch them, even if you have never played them and are not going to at all. And this makes the potential coverage of the PUBG audience much wider than Lol or Dota 2.
There is an even more objective argument in favor of the future e -sports success of Pabji. Last year, this game gave everyone not only on Steam, but also on Twitch. This means that not only me, but also millions of other rotozes are interested in watching a hundred hunger strikes find tons of weapons in abandoned houses and methodically die from bullets, pans, UAZs, bombing and power field.
The problem is that so far PUBG is responding to a request of millions with slurred muttering. But here I have a slaughter argument in favor of Pabji. Six months ago, the game of Battlgrad was a combination of pleasant with torment. Today, PUBG is not all smooth either, but now you can play it for hours and not get care. All because the developers listen to the community and are constantly working on the game. And they get. This suggests that it will turn out with e -sports, since Brendan Green set himself such a goal. To do this, you need to do a lot of technical work and rethink the rules of the game, but there is nothing impossible in that. The main thing is that, judging by the entertainment of the game and the numbers on Twitch, Pabji definitely has the potential to enter the e -sports elite and slightly squeeze the local regulars.
In general, that’s it. Sorry for the graphomania, thanks for the understanding, Game Over, was spent.
P. S. Too late remembered the current and future doubles of PUBG like Fortnite: Battle Royale, and to rewrite the text, clear, laziness. It is possible that one of the doubles will surpass Pabji on gameplay and popularity or it will simply be better sharpened for e-sports. In this case, the LOL and CS: GO will not be PUBG, but the other Royal Battle. But Pabji in any case will remain a pioneer who trodden his genre path to e -sports peaks.
