Battleground's Survivor: Battle Royale vs PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)
Battleground's Survivor: Battle Royale
Battleground's Survivor: Battle Royale is an early access, MMO battle royale game where survival means you have to eliminate every other player on the island using any way you can. Players will start the game by leaping off a plane into the battleground where the race to secure valuable weapons, ammo, armor and other resources commences. The game map is pretty big at first, but it'll gradually shrink as time goes on in the game, forcing the remaining survivors together and ensuring a final shoot-out to determine the victor royale!However, since the game's still a work-in-progress, there are plenty to be desired. The controls are rather wonky and well, in terms of variety (maps mainly), the game has not much to offer. Not to mention, as opposed to playing against actual human players, you'll mostly be fighting against bots that seem to have aimlock in this game. To survive the hail of bullets will require some skill, that's for sure.
Although Battleground's Survivor: Battle Royale isn't exactly the best battle royale game on the mobile platform that you can play, the game itself is a pretty nice start. By playing the game and giving the dev/s feedback, you may help the game turn into a battle royale that you couldn't resist.
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is a battle royale game that features a vast open world island filled with plenty of resources to scavenge. Being a battle royale game, everyone will start off on an equal playing field. Through clever scavenging and picking the correct fights will you end up with the last few survivors to battle it out for the winning spot as the map will gradually shrink, pushing survivors closer and closer together.In some way, Player Unknown's Battlegrounds reminds me of Hunger Games, albeit a much more brutal Hunger Games that you can actually play in, and I'd actually like that.
However, the game is still pretty poorly optimized long after its release as an early access game, and well, the game has drawn plenty of flak since the devs have started banning anybody who killed a streamer who cries foul due to this thing called "Stream sniping", giving rise to a pretty bad and toxic atmosphere where streamers are players whom you literally can't kill in fear of being banned for no reason other than getting the upper hand on a streamer. Worst thing is the game's not exactly a free-to-play, so if you do get banned, that's literally money down the drain.
So, even if the game is as epic a battle royale game as it is, you should keep these downsides in mind going in. Gameplay-wise, the game is amazing, but you will need to be wary of its increasingly toxic community (both players and the team managing the PR side of the game).
Its developer, BlueHole, has recently (as of March 2018) released the mobile versions of the game, PUBG Mobile. The mobile version of PUBG is available on both Android and iOS.
