\u2018We more accurately feel what you, the players want and need,\u2019 PlayerUnknown\u2019s Battlegrounds\u2019 executive producer said in an open letter to the community, \u2018Fix PUBG,\u2019 which began in August, set out to shore up PUBG\u2019s performance, matchmaking, balance and fair play.<\/b>
\n\u201cFix PUBG\u201d is over. PUBG has been fixed.
PUBG Corp. said on Friday that the three-month project to shore up PlayerUnknown\u2019s Battlegrounds\u2019 performance, matchmaking, balance and fair play has drawn to a close. Going forward, said Taeseok Jang, the game\u2019s executive producer, developers will focus on stability and gameplay quality \u2014 priorities that had been forsaken as the team pushed to get new content out, leading to the need to fix PUBG.
\u201cAt first, this is likely to slow down our build cadence\u201d Taeseok wrote, \u201cbut as these processes become more proficient, we hope to provide new content as fast as before, while maintaining our new stability and quality-first goal.
\u201cWe acknowledge that in this process, we have overlooked issues that matter to you and we have reflected a lot on our mistakes,\u201d Taeseok said.
It\u2019s not literally the end of fixing the game, of course, but Taeseok said PlayerUnknown\u2019s Battlegrounds is now on a firmer footing, or at least one that won\u2019t alienate players with shortcomings in basic expectations.
\u201cWe know there are many things to improve upon, but we do have a sense that we more accurately feel what you, the players want and need,\u201d he added.
Fix PUBG began in early August and it took its name from two-word fan feedback developers had been hearing a lot of in 2018. PUBG Corp. set to creating better matchmaking to avoid desync kills, improving jarring and sudden frame rate drops, putting the screws to cheating and cheaters, and improving the \u201ctick rate,\u201d which is a technical way to say making the game smoother and \u201cfeel right.\u201d
Taeseok explained in much greater detail how developers resolved these and other quality-of-life issues in the open letter posted to the game\u2019s Steam Community.
Fix PUBG wasn\u2019t just about getting existing systems and features squared away. It also saw the launch of a Training Mode, responding to long-running player request for some means of practicing their game other than in live play.
Along the way, PlayerUnknown\u2019s Battlegrounds left early access on Xbox One in early September, brought in a new ranked system for matchmaking, and, most recently, PUBG Corp. said the game would finally launch on PlayStation 4 on Dec. 7.
As to that, Taeseok said that \u201cThe direction of Xbox and PlayStation development will parallel with PC, continuing to focus on providing our console players a more refined game service to give the best experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
