A new weather effect on one of PUBG’s<\/em> maps that was added in a recent update went under the radar, but players seem to really be loving it.<\/p>
A creepy fog effect has been added to Vikendi, as spotted by one Reddit user, who said it looked like “Vaseline smeared all over my screen.” I don’t know much about lubricants, but it seems as though most players in the replies are having a blast with the spooky, filter-like viewing experience. The discussion of the game’s dynamic weather feature was sparked in the Sept. 5 Reddit thread<\/a>, and players chimed in with mostly positive responses to how each game can feel completely different, with the game’s weather running the gamut.<\/p>
“I gotta say, the dynamic weather in PUBG<\/a><\/em> is one of the coolest features they\u2019ve added,” an enthusiastic player said<\/a>. “It\u2019s like suddenly, everyone\u2019s playing a completely different game. It\u2019s not just wide-open spaces anymore where snipers are picking people off from a mile away. Now, those long-range shots are tough to land, and it forces everyone to adapt, get closer, and think twice before exposing themselves. Plus, it\u2019s a real-world condition that would absolutely impact any kind of battle royale situation.”<\/p>
“I had an absolutely EPIC lightning storm on Taego last night, insane sound design and the flashes putting everything into stark contrast while fighting our way in was so cool!” another gamer replied<\/a>.<\/p>
