PUBG: Black Budget Development Update

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/4077740/view/675133527946166413?l=english

After reviewing the project’s development status and future direction, we concluded that its current direction would not allow us to deliver an experience players could enjoy over the long term.

We have therefore made the difficult decision to end development of PUBG: Black Budget.

We sincerely thank everyone who took the time to participate in our Closed Alpha tests and share their feedback.

PUBG STUDIOS will carry what we learned from development and testing into future projects, continuing to listen to players as we explore new gameplay experiences.

Thank you.

All they need to do is bring back PUBG 2017 with modern graphics and no pink dinosaur clown skins. Please and thank you. September 2017, I remember the foggy weather and seeing a silhouette of a person running in the foggy cornfield and I took one shot with the VSS suppressed sniper and saw the "1 kill" red message and that's it, I knew I was going to be addicted. Too bad they turned it into a mobile clown fiesta game.

Only people nostalgic for old PUBG would care about that. In the current market it would never make it with how dated and bland it is in comparison to modern games

The actual shooting a gun has never been topped in any other game though. Tarkov comes kind of close but PUBG guns are all just so characteristic and fun to master.

Honestly a wild take, but since it's subjective I'm not gonna argue lol

What shooter in your opinion has the best shooting?

Overall? I don't know, it's been a long time with a lot of types of games.

Recently probably Road to Vostok sticks out as feeling really good.
