Era, what is your favorite battle royale game?

[Deleted member 45130]

Pubg is still the best for me. Nothing can match its intensity.

I also loved Blackout but something about it just feels off. Maybe it's the 20hz tick rate.

Yeah not sure Hunt counts as a Battle Royale but if it does it's my top choice for sure. People are counting Twisted Metal and Tetris 99 so I guess Hunt is way more of a Battle Royale game than both of those.

Everyone gets dropped into the same server and all gradually going to the same area of the map? I suppose it goes in the grey area of BR. Either way, it's an excellent game. Glad to see more and more people enjoying it.

Another vote for Apex Legends, even with its issues is a fantastic game.

Yeah grey area. I almost don't want to call it a Battle Royale because I feel it does not do the game justice. When people think Battle Royale they think tons of people playing deathmatch on a ever shrinking map. That's not what Hunt is at all.
But either way, amazing game that will probably be my GOTY.

Apex, best gunplay out of all the BRs

 

[dogbox]

Apex was the only one that got me real good for a while. What a great game!

...I should check out Apex again.

 

[Kyrios]

Tetris 99 is literally the only battle royale type game that I can get into, and I tried all the popular BR games. Just think that it's not my genre.

 

[wideface]

Apex, but I no longer play it.

 

[Cream Stout]

While I really like Apex, I think my myfavorite might be Realm Royale

Fortnite was the game changer that got me hooked on console BRs. And it's still the one that takes the most skill out of all the ones I've played. It'd be my number one if it wasn't for the fact that Apex just handles and feels great to play. Controls are more responsive. It's fast paced. Introduced the respawn mechanic.

However, crunch issues aside, epics update / support for Fortnite destroys apex.

It's a toss up between the two. Apex has better gameplay but Fort is constantly changing and has cooler cosmetics / Easter eggs for fans. Cool fan service like the kaiju battle.

 

[Falchion]

Apex is a ton of fun and is my go to when I need to sctach the BR itch.

 

[IIFloodyII]

Fortnite, but fell off the genre.
Apex would be my number 2, just way too barebones to beat Fortnite for me and why I've barely played since week 3.

Apex is the new standard.

- Heroes with unique skills
- Amazing gunplay
- Amazing movement
- Diverse map
- Diverse type of weapons
- The team jumps together controlled by the leader
- You can easily communicate the target's location, traps or even itens with a simple click
- Amazing deathbox system, where even if you die you still have a chance to come back
- Ranked matches!

The last new BR I tried was Battlefield's, and it felt like playing a 15 yo game when compared to Apex and it's innovations.

 

[ZSJ]

I don't play CSGO anymore so I forgot about it. Hence, other.

Because it's a completely forgettable botch by Valve. It's not your fault brother.

Also, Apex can't be the standard when there's no duos/solo. Forced randoms is a good part of why the game has cratered.

 

[Matrix XII]

PUBG for me. Still play it occasionally and watch it on Twitch.

 

[AndrewDean84]

Fortnite. Crossplay being the main reason.

 

[calder]

Blackout is the only one I've played that has been fun enough to keep me going for months. A huge part of that is undoubtedly the fact it is a COD game, which meant my brothers and their friends were exposed to it and as a result I have a group of 8 or so people I know personally who like to play together.

For me, I need a BR to give me casual gaming conveniences like hit markers and gadgets and shit. I tried to play PUBG so many times but getting killed by people I never even see got old, as did shooting at guys in the distance and never knowing if I was even hitting them or not.

Fortinite Seasson 1 and 2

Apex by far

But their greed pisses me off

 

[Zafir]

Apex, but I can't say I'm massively happy about their monetisation methods.

 

[Burrman]

No game ever gave me the same tension as PUBG. Love me some Apex tho

 

[joesiv]

Tetris 99. Because it's Tetris.

Apex by landslide.

No love for Super Animal Royale?

 

[Corthier]

I like PUBG, Apex, and Blackout for different reasons so it's hard to chose one since I rotate around them a lot. Though I must say that I've really enjoyed ground war in Blackout; it's casual and great for mindless fun while still having some way to respawn so long as a squadmate is alive. Apex's ping system made me semi-enjoy squad play with randoms but I have a lot more fun when I can head out on my own primarily because I don't feel pressure of letting my team down.
