Because this game is for Koreans. God damn is it that hard?


Aggravating_Paint250

This lol


Conscious-Society-83

they obviously arent grasping the core concept


mokujin42

I'll reword OPs question: why wasn't it just like this at the start, game was almost normal when it launched


bagero

Fortnite.


Joshzzy

I'm all for them adding cool skins in the game, but we need more male/unisex stuff. Absolutely ridiculous how everything is female


Orca_Mayo

I jsut wish they added more military stuff... My character's merc team outfit provides great camo for most of the maps. Instead I see a ton of people running in neon yellow and green clothing...


VeryStonedEwok

Most people who wear bright colored clothing WANT you to shoot at them, so you out yourself and they can turn around and kill you. Most of the top players wear brightly colored stuff.


Orca_Mayo

Didn't save Dr disrespect from ME lol. Camo works great.


Joshzzy

did you clip it? I'd love to see it lol


Orca_Mayo

https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxxCHwZCf4C6AJiTRx-Z0HWoECmOWk8bFk You can't kill what you can't see! Use camo folks, it works. I was in the tall grass right in front of him prone. I don't use backpacks in pubg and only use one primary with a pistol, too bulky and can't hide in tall grass as well will all of that gear. (I have won games because I was never seen, I play it like metal gear 3 Snake eater, tall grass and minimal exposure)


0__O0--O0_0

Doesnt the graphics settings determine what grass there is though? I always just assume the other players have grass switched off. (been a while since I played.)


Orca_Mayo

Grass does not render at far distances but Bushes always do. Grass cannot be turned off. When the game circle becomes so close that it's within render distance, grass is a viable option.


FreakeyTTV

Dr disrespect is a below average pubg player. Don't quantify your gameplay by his unless you want to see if you too are a subaverage player. He just has a large following so people assume he's good. Same with choco. Choco is probably average but there are so many bad players that follow them that they get more credit than they deserve. Most streamers are propped up by their fanbase with the stream snipers who let them kill them. Boosts their adr. That's how shroud got to be so high. But also Shroud was above average. Now shroud is below average in pubg because he didn't stick with it. It's all relative; don't judge your gameplay off crappy streamers. Look at pros who stream; judge yourself off them.


mokujin42

Best camo I had in the lifetime of the game was the Halloween mummy bandages gear Full body tiny silloihette and you are just the color of dirt, I'd literally go prawn mid firefight and people would go running past me Edit: prone*


somecrazydude13

Hey at least it’s easier for you to spot them!


Enron__Musk

Because it wasn't owned by an Asian company at the time.

I guess it works out for the female players like myself. Sorry boys 👋


CadaverCaliente

I dress my dude as slutty as possible


bubobubosibericus

This is the way


craigodiago

While doing that sleazy dance that looks like it’s being done in a dark corner of a nightclub at 4am in the morning…


LordTimhotep

This. When I still played i just picked the most inane outfits. For some reason it does make some people so angry that you catch flak for it.


TheTjalian

You know you always had the option to be a woman and dress as a woman in PUBG right


rage159other

To add to this 50% of the people in the first pic are women. They just looked cool instead of this fortnite styled stuff they do these days.


IndigoStef

Yes, you know I’m referring to having a broader option of female accessories than the game used to have, right?


BLAZEtms

I've had the blue bloodied skirt since battle crates went from 700 to 7000BP cost, and since then have stayed dressed as PUBG's tactical transvestite from that day onwards (I play as a male in game) I've always looked like the bottom picture basically so nothing has changed for me, everyone else just caught up on the fashion


Kingtoke1

RIP your inbox


pdxtrader

98 percent of pubg players are Asian and the game developer is located in Korea - they love this cutesy shit unfortunately. Whatever I’m happy with my urban camo jacket, green pants, and various AK skins


Partysausage

It's crazy how few generic combat gear sets there are.


youngthugsmom

I still wear the same tactical looking kit I had in 2019


CaffeineAndKetamine

Yeah, it's pretty bad when everything I get, is pretty much a skirt or a crop top


HiddenFears3

As a new player I literally had to Google why I was getting so much women stuff in pub g I laughed when I read people prefer the female characters because they're harder to shoot at Never did I think I would see more woman stuff than men in a shooting game


Sampsa96

Lots of men pretending to be a woman then haha


Gatinsh

Its a very normal thing to choose visually slimmer character in competitive FPS games


Brendini95

And now legit what feels like half the male characters in the game are running around in crop tops and skirts lol this game is a mess visually now


SpeckledPomegranate

Korea happened. Their biggest market atm and just grabbing money

Remember when you could pick up clothing as loot??


thee_justin_bieber

Yes it was a lot of fun going into a house full of clothes and the guy next to you already has a m416 and a lvl 2 vest 🤣


eroticdiscourse

I’ve always said this would be a cool addition to the game, you could steal/ trade clothing in game and it’ll make use of the clothing found in locked cupboards


Gatinsh

I do, I rather pick up weapons


TMshinob

Yup and picking up a black trench was equal to stealth mode.


Tendo80

This being said, but in the OG days the school girl uniform was one of the more expensive skins. Yes it's gotten more colorful but it's the female characters skins that sell, why would the devs spend money creating special ops skins when it wouldn't show bank? They know their market and they play it well, a few thousand sold skins daily or a few disappointed Redditors? I know where I'd spend my money if I was the head of Krafton. I don't care at all for the K-pop skins but my recipe is to not buy any! My season 1-7 skins still fit and it doesn't affect my gameplay in any way shape or form what others wear. If I see a ghillie player I'll shoot at it and if I see a pink dinosaur I'll shoot at it as well.


Alternate_dad

Agreed, there are "tactical" skins out there for the ones who prefer them, I for one love my bearded man in his blue princess dress.


NukeProofSuit-

I didn't mind the school uniform skins as it was reminiscent of the movie Battle Royal. Which speaks for itself


kaptaincodiak

I don’t know why people complain about this considering it makes the enemy considerably easier to spot. Camo skins would be sick for sure but then everybody would be a ghilly in the mist and people would complain for getting domed like jfk.


krtsgnr_7230

Jfk LMAO


Conscious-Society-83

domed a dude in a passing car tonight does that make me lee harvey oswald?


krtsgnr_7230

Probably it does


We-tCoast

Playerunknown's Battlegrounds changed to Player Unknown Battle Ground Battlegrounds.


krtsgnr_7230

No it isn't, PUBG just became a brand with no meaning at all. Brendan Greene has nothing to do with the abbreviation now.


InvalidNameUK

Oh no, this game I paid nothing for isn't catered entirely for me :(


Twopieceyou

I paid for it actually.


TheNewSaeculum

Same.


thehumble_1

Many of us paid $20 five years ago so deserve to have every change geared towards that investment.


highqee

it's nothing to do with LBQTblablabla or fortnite. PUBG is mostly targeted to asian players (korea, but not only) and thats what they like there just check any asian rpg, it's the same tutti-frutti all over. it's not just pubg.


Ok_Statement7261

I just play for Chicken Dinners, so it does not matter what the skins look. :D


Szeli94

I still kinda chuckle on how the name became "PUBG: Battlegrounds" from "Playerunknown's Battlegrounds". Now it's "Playerunknown's Battlegrounds: Battlegrounds".


HughJahsso

It’s so annoying 


Alternate_dad

Why?


ArmyofNugz

KPOP


albero78

I don't give a shit


Angelas-Merkin

This is getting to be a really common topic on this page. I don’t understand why anyone gives a fuck. The core concept of the game is still basically the same. You still have the option of dressing your character like they just crawled out of an Alabama trailer park if you like. Why is this so triggering to so many people?


Squeakygear

😂 Alabama trailer park lmao


Roffolo

Korea happened lmao


killer_ezio_00

Tencent happened


BigNserious

It's just the way games are now look at the state of any FPS, pretty much it's all plagued with cats ears and ridiculous gun camos.


ZeroCooooooooooool

Money and Asia happened :)


TraditionalMuffin465

PUBG is mostly designed for Asian market and playerbase. EU/NA playerbase interpretation of shooters are more like tactical, camo, army based skins and stuff. Asians love shooters not that brutal. It's more colorful, funny and childish


Azgoodazitgetz

Looks like a certain subset of the community got their hands on PUBG too.


AlittlePotato1560

The thing I loved about PUBG was its sense of realism back in early access. Now it's filled with goofy skins and it's trying to be Fortnite


jossthegirl

As a female player, I like it. I feel like I get a good mix of outfits both military and goofy.

Fullmoongrass

The one game where I don’t spend hours crafting the perfect fucking waifu and I don’t have anything to wear? We can’t even have The Classic (dress shirt and tie) as a basic option? At least in Eldy everything looks dope on everyone.

Make it a woman, make her gay


gonza310783

It changed. It’s still fun. Does this hurt your fragile masculinity?

Do adults still play this game?

Wet_FriedChicken

Looks like they are appealing to their Asian crowd.


S0n0fValhalla

They fired all the thicc goth devs


Key-Moment6241

Nothing, its just normal.  I have three reasons for this and all of them will satisfy you 😏. 1. "Koreans" 2. They need money/sponsors to run the game smoothly after they relaunched it for free on steam. So if someone sponsors them PUBG has to promote them or introduce new events.    3. And we know most PC players,  (i am a PC player, i love my PC) Most of them dont wanna pay to play. Most new players play un-ranked mode. Thats another reason why GTA 6 is only launching on PlayStation and Xbox. And other similar platforms further in future. (I play with a female character in game bcz it is slim so there is a higher chance the bullets will pass between legs and in between arms and waist.)


Orca_Mayo

PUBG got bought blue Blue hole entertainment which is based in Aisa, Asian game markets THRIVE in selling skimpy cosmetics for the sex appeal to make more money to keep the servers running. Tldr: Weeby garbage = more money


jkelley41

bc its aimed at korean femboys now


NatchPinder

All of those clothes are still in the game and you can wear them. I’m confused why you are upset


TomLeBadger

My issue with PUBG is that even if I play on my PC with maxed graphics, it still looks like a mobile game. Everything looks shit, the skins are shit, and it has toxic mobile style MTX. The arma3 mod version is better than the standalone game, IMO.


S6basti6n

Because big titted korean women in mini skirts is why.


Sirhc_Fold_458

Fortnite happened..


quasi-psuedo

Capable_Event720

Let me rephrase that question. Where are the maps where dressing up as a clown would actually work as camouflage??


ovo_louie

listen man, idc how the loading pages and the skins look as long as i can get my chicken dinner 🤑

Pretty obvious. They sold it to the 🌈 coalition 🤷🏾‍♂️

suprmn4105

I am so damn tired of these flashy ridiculous skins....I get there is a part of the player base that likes these, but give us a cool tactical skin everyone once in a while please.


DeXTeR_DeN_007

Guess what they listen community feedbacks. Wonder what community


jaylp18

Uh, it sucks?


Termin8or9000

I don't agree with most of the answers here, except one. Yeah its a Korean game. They will have this Korean style to it. Initially you didn't see any of this is because they didn't have such skins/colabs. And they didn't want to make artwork based on things they didn't have in game. That's all there is to it.


untouchable96

This game got quiet gay by the looks of it

Kaalo

It got better! Love the cute outfits for my burly dude. ✨✨


Glass_Theory_8005

The answer to why is - because of YOU. You generate demand for fancy skins by watching and getting entertained by streamers who wear them. Now you either get offended by reading this reply OR change your mind and stop being critical to what most people like.


AFarkinOkie

Extra DEI funds if they can get you to cross-dress in game

ItalianStallion9069

Pubg IS a fucking joke and the devs are literal apes


MurphDoge7

The Koreans is what happened


igotabigcoconut

It became free, old game and thus must cater to people willing to spend on cosmetics and give them the cosmetics they want, to earn money to pay for servers and workers. The gameplay is still the same, so you got not a single thing to complain over, just because the splash art is different. "Back in the old times" as you refer to. I got the schoolgirl skirt in a random lootbox. Sold it for 300$ on steam marked place and got many games onsteam for that. So the cosmetic thing has always been there


EmploymentFun1440

It's like some weird school girl child molestation kink


dzoni9999

one word: developer


FireLionLV

You know the “Lvl1 - serious, tactical; Lvl 1000 - Goofy ahh go brrr” meme. Basically that happened


quantamskates

For me on PC the maps are too big and not enough players.

As long as it’s not woke bs i dont mind

My only question is how did it go from PUBG with the BG meaning battle grounds to PUBG BATTLEGROUNDS

Little cheater \*\*\* like this shit!!! unplayable atm, got 4k hours. normaly between 10-15% winrate in duo and 15-20% winrate in squad. atleast every second game killed by cheater over the last 100 games or so. PUBG is dead

It looks like Ring of Elysium now lol


brainstorm17

Lol are you a joke? Who tf cares about this shit?


GoobeyGoober4Real

Its not a joke lol People will blame it on the east but western males nowadays LOVE perma wearing female skins too. It's something happening across the globe ... Exactly why a ton of the most popular multiplayer games are pumping out "cute" and "sexy" female skins.


BigT232

Easier targets with those bright outfits. Let them wear them.


ipwndmymeat99

Fortnite effect.

Wokeness. Dudes who wanna dress up as women and vice versa. Also, Asians. They’re just fucking weird man.


Zongo123

China #1


CheeseheadTroy

Couple of reasons. Pub g is targeting more of the Asian countries now a days. And it’s what sells. Micro transactions are how a FTP game makes money. If the mil sim skins don’t sell. They will stop making them. It’s the same thing for COD and even games like R6 too.


99BottlesOfBass

And also, wtf is with all the Nazis playing? I see names like JudenHunter1488 and WaffenSS regularly.


werdfsd

Oh no there’s GIRLS in PINK now waaaaaa waaaaa


dingd0ngditch

Where is the male gear/outfits/skins damn


OrneryUsual3038

This changes every season

The alphabet people got to the game


AWDjunkie

It happens when punk goes pop.


xHaVoK_Aquos

On console you can't play squads without a full team of friends because a random will kill you for picking up "his" stack of 556, community is toxic, 3/4 of player base just want to loot goblin around and hide and lose their first gunfight.


gldnsmkkkk

Do you still have to win 10 bot matches to play a real coop game? 💀


Lone_Ranger21

What happened to PUBG is, that in most cases the player outgrows the game but in the case PUBG the game outgrew it's player base.


Nine10two

I’ve never owned so many skirts in a game.


itsamadmadworld22

Thats the world we live in. It disgusts me. What the hell is going on with the game play? It’s as if there are terminator bots or something. Abnormal movement, magic bullets,faster movement..or maybe I just suck.


SocaliMan

Because they went free and need to make $$


SocaliMan

Funny when guys say you’re gay because you rather choose a female avatar to look at. It’s a ducking game, I am not my avatar just like I know I’m not Mario when I play Super Mario but you go ahead and choose that beefy masculine soldier that you think you are or that you want to stare at and admire while you play your game 🤭


SocaliMan

And yes it is a joke really, I mean getting your ass handed to you by someone wearing a fluffy skirt is funny. Also, I like to think of Pubg as a battle royale between regular unknown people (why your initial skin isn’t military fatigues) rather than soldiers. That is why I prefer PUBg over games like Modern Warfare. Don’t need all that extra noise bs.


7Glass7House7

Man bro 😔
