Games like this shouldn't be released. you don't release a broken and unfinished game on consoles. Playing a shooter at 15-20FPS is disgusting.

Not surprised as the "beast" is no PC and this game clearly requires a hefty CPU. PUGB on console needs work and gamers shouldn't support devs who offer this level of optimization at launch, early access (not done) labels or otherwise.

Looks dreadful on the Xbox one, wasn't exactly a pretty game on PC but wow

Yeah this is pretty pathetic..... They gotta really improve this fast.

C'mon now this is some BS.

One site says the best way to play on the XBox One and now this site says it's crap.

drops down to 4 fps on the x version, WTF

the s version is practically unplayable at 18-24 fps

We further understand why Sony doesn't allow a preview program because of stuff like this.

That sucks

its a early access beta, stop grasping at straws. since when did we go braindead and not understand that beta means the game will have issues until its actually released. even on pc its being updated all the time

It was really messing up this morning when I tried it. I tried to play and was able to get into 2 games. One of which, I could not firgure out how to F***ing LOAD MY AMMO! I wish there was a tutorial honestly.

The game that I did play though....man was it fun. It's VERY intense mentally. Knowing there are 100 people per lobby. I can't wait to try it again when I get home.

The game I was in was pretty choppy, didn't run well at all and had problems. Textures didn't load properly, some not even showing up at all. The game had a jumpy connection too, people skipping around. It was smooth otherwise, but these issues were bad enough to hinder the experience.

Early Access!

Can we please all agree that these consoles and its upgraded versions are outdated pieces of shit. Really console games shine only if the game is linear or the open world game is open in short burst by completing certain missions. But when it comes to real open world games like PUBG, Ark Survival Evolved, etc. is clear that these consoles can't handle those type of games. Day Z on consoles will also be impossible to run on consoles. Forget Black Desert on consoles that game will melt consoles.

"Better than current PCs" they said lmao

So many conflicting reports, there’s another story stating the Xbox is the only place to play the game.

I will just have to try it myself, it looks so good.

That’s a huge blow

Sorry, but with HDR this looks better than the PC version.

Sounds like they should have waited longer with this one.

Been playing on the x all evening . Game runs fine after the initial plane drop off. Encountered vy few stutters. Hopefully gets better with time as there is a promising game there .

How the hell did this unfinished game get nominated for the Video Game Awards? And it ruins poorly on Xbox One X!

Work to be done and they have optimised it for the 8 core CPU or the Xbox machines.

It looks like huge fun and the potential to be a great console exclusive, maybe even a system seller.

It performed well for me last night but I’m on X. It’s early access so that’s to be expected

Didn't we just have an article that PUBG is best on X1X? Which is it?

This is why Sony doesn't do early access. It only brings negative news.

The game has been on Steam for 9 months and still is plagued with issues. Anyone thinking this will get fixed all of a sudden is out of their mind.

Too bad the x didn’t beef up the cpu more, but there’s only so much a jaguar chip can do.

Been saying this all the time. Its a good premise, but the game is shit. Fortnite BR is way better. (PUBG doesnt run well on pc either)

The other thread users were defending pubg Xbox one. Now this has come out they all quite? I personally don't think a game like this is suited to consoles you need to have a fast CPU which consoles won't have, even next gen the price to even out in a £100 CPU is too much.

For the time (even though I purchased the XB1 version) I probably mainly play this via my PC version... I hope the issues get ironed out asap. The framerate is the only major issue I have atm. Haven't hay any crashes, but I did experience a bug that put me through the map in the final circle and I got 5th because of it 😞

With how buggy games are these days,every release is early acess

From my experiance its not that bad at time bt it needs work , the new map runs way better

Xbox is good console to beta test on then comes to ps4 patched ready to play

12fps is a far cry from the previously promised 60fps.

Dumb article is dumb.
"..the game is a long way short of the standards expected from a polished console release"

But...it was never supposed to be a "polished console release". I havent played a single "Game Preview" game that was "polished" like an official release. Hell...the PC version isnt even running ideal...atleast thats what I've been hearing by a lot of PC players

The game is fun as all hell. Finally able to play it! Frame rate and ish isnt ideal...but its very playable.(On Xbox ONe X atleast)

Umm, after playing it on the X for 12 hours I strongly disagree. Are we trying to create false information passing around?

A few frame drops but fun overall.16th 3 kills first game.Good start.

lol...PUBG performs badly on most machines.

Messy.

Did you Xbox fans expect a finished game when the PC has been waiting since March for a finished product? 😂

Considering it sucks on pc ..i don't doubt it. Hell the X runs battlefield at 4k 60fps.....this game is just trash. Power of the devs....

A bit concerning, considering that this is probably Xbox's biggest game. I think we can put to rest that dream of ever running it at 60fps, perhaps they should start with getting it above 20.

So a game that isn't finished or optimized isn't performing very well right now? To think some people had the audacity to recommend PUBG, in its current form, as a GOTY contender...LOL

For one it's just come out and two doesn't it still have problems on pc that they havnt fixed, well that's the story from what I read and heard whether it true I don't know but you can't slate the console which is where this article seems to be heading.

I don't no many multiplayer games upon release that do not have problems in some way or another, it's common knowledge now to expect something to go wrong on release and the fact it's on early access means devs were expecting this and before final release will be sorted..

Well to be fair the PC version doesn't exactly run stellar either but man I hope MS can fix this before official release.

One more time: exclusives show off what a system can do. Not multies.

Before the "beast" came out I kept reading how easy it would be to port PC games to it but that doesnt seem to be the case as people believed . You figure they would try and get their biggest game working right before releasing , pretty sad . If this is timed exclusive as many believe they better get it fixed sooner than later.

Say it for what it is

We paid to be beta testers

What's all the hype about this game anyway? Looks bland as shit and runs like it too, even on PC.

Dat price for a BETA.. Nice.

With a jag cpu on a game like this there arent miracles. Another wait for it

Oh my...

Fortnite all the way 💙

Still fun

Almost always it is the CPU that limits. If we see those numbers (well still pre-release) we won't wanne know how bad it would run on base PS4 (even lower clocked CPU).
They really must optimize their CPU workloads.

yesterday there was an article about how it's the best version compared to the pc lol

Why are people surprised by this?, it runs badly on pc too.

"uncompromised 4k gaming" :)

Unreal engine isn't a good choice imo for open world. Suits Gears because of linear controlled gameplay with small maps.

Even fortnite, although runs much better then this still struggles on many systems that destroy BF4 etc ultra settings.4k.

This is the reason why Star Citizen is never coming to console.

You need a beast of a CPU to run it above 60 fps and we all know consoles are seriously lacking in that department.

It looks like crap no matter what you play it on. And it looks boring.

Well even the PC version you need good if not the most recent hardware to play it like its meant to.

its not performing badly for me. bit of framerate drops when loading the map and parachuting down. but once on the ground plays fine. i play on the X. And this is still game preview and technically a beta. give the game a chance.

Complain when it is still the same months after the official LAUNCH date

shame

This is fine;-)

Wow.... Whoever was saying that the Xbox One X is a GTX 1070 killer surely is hiding in a corner coz my GTX 1070 gives about 50-70 fps on average and this barely 30 fps.... What a joke hahahaha

why stick to the release date when you know the performance isn't that good... this is super noticeable 13/16 frames REALLY? And they were talking about the x is sooo powerful wtf you been doing during development. This is bad, i'm glad Xbox was released so they can fix this stuff for the playstation 4 pro launch. This is just pathetic excuse especially seeing the xbox one x struggling to perform this simply shouldn't be happening.

"performs badly on xbox one x" then goes on to show more than often stable 30fps framerate with dips to 22-24 when moving in vehicles all the while praising the textures and 4k resolution.

"PUBG is indeed enhanced for Xbox One X, and although we've only had time for a cursory comparison, the improvements are substantial. First of all, native rendering resolution jumps from 1080p up to full 4K. Secondly, texture detail gets a significant upgrade - it's still far off the standards set by most console titles, but it's clearly a massive upgrade compared to what's served up for base Xbox users. Additionally, foliage draw distance also gets a big, big boost on Microsoft's 4K console."

"It's very challenging to 'benchmark' a game as dynamic in nature as PUBG, even if you revisit the same area, doing the same things. With the title tracking gameplay from up to 99 other players, clearly there's a lot going on behind the scenes that could impact performance"

I'm sorry but just getting it running at 30fps half of the time with a map the size it is registering what 100 people are doing on said map is impressive.

Name one other game on the same scope?

But yeah "runs crap"

Hahaha bummer... was hoping this would give me a reason to boot up my Xbox once in a while. Guess not

no surprise, it's a mess on PC too

What a surprise

A xbox game in preview which means it's still in development doesn't run well and all the ps4 fanboys are here jumping on it.

Another typical N4G clickbait article designed to set the fanboys off

I'll reserve judgement until the game is complete and your playing version 1.0

Yikes. This looks awful. I know it's early access but this runs atrocious.

Seems like the developers need to put some more effort in. Most games that perform poorly on consoles are lacking good multi-threading -- a very PC-way of thinking, given that single core performance is so good on PC. This game would likely perform even worse on PS4, if the CPU is the bottleneck, which I would wager it is -- they need to step it up.

It’s not surprising at all.

Not only is this game poorly optimized on the PC, but would also run badly on the consoles due to the lack of CPU optimization.

This game is very CPU bound, therefore developers should have taken extra time especially with the console where it lacks a powerful CPU.

I’m not supporting games that have lack of optimization in any platform.

The game is still in the testing stages, right? This early-access garbage gives developers a pass they shouldn't get. PUBG has been very slow to get to a real release candidate.

Biggest game right now, really? Just yesterday they were telling me Xbox is the best version, better than any PC build.

The article next to this one literally says it is the best way to play PUBG? WTF?
