As expected, the skill gap that was created by VP is slowly forcing other teams to adapt and close it, undoubtedly this PGS was the highest in team performances out of all PGS's in 2026, I really enjoyed it. Quick 3rd part meta activated 😭

(Since there is no post about it yet)

As we all know, the recent drama of PUBG has already pushed this game into the cliff corner, with the view decreased over 50% based on the esports chart and the shutdown of one of the strongest regions of PUBG esports. Since I'm Vietnamese and I'm on Vietnamese social media often, I'm holding information from Vietnamese streamers who have connected with PUBG Esport staff and the AL manager, only circulated in Vietnamese social media. This information might tickle a part of people, and I'll soon upload it at the time around PGC. This video won't just include some basic information that we already watched too much on YouTube with those AI voice, but the more additional information that you guys will also interested, let's wait for it.

Hola soy medio nuevo, he estado jugando normales y son super divertidas pero a la hora de jugar arcade team deadmatch todo el mundo pega tiros perfectos, y granadas perfectas tanto que se me hace rarisimo. Yo vengo de jugar muchos juegos tipo arcade de deadmatch y siempre en su mayoria los jugadores matan pero tienen debilidades, en este juego se siente que todos saben donde estan los enemigos y disparan antes de salir, he reportado cuentas que se me hacen sospechos y diariamente me avisan que las cuentas que reporte fueron baneadas, todos los dias me llegan esos mensajes. Es raro en los modos de juego normales no se sienten asi, si se llega a ver muchas personas que son buenas y malas, no todos perfectos.

One trio. One chance. One Erangel.

No AI used! Everything you see is handmade and captured during a real, unscripted match.

Press ready. Coming soon!

Hey everyone, I'm hoping someone here has dealt with something similar because I'm honestly running out of ideas.

My PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS stopped launching after a power cut that happened during a 12-hour internet outage. There was an electrical fire involving a pole on my ISP's network, and my PC lost power unexpectedly. Ever since then, the game has been acting strangely.

When I click Play on Steam, it switches to Running for a second or two, but no game window appears. After that, it just goes back to Play like nothing happened.

The weirdest part is that this doesn't seem to be a straightforward PUBG issue.

Here's what's happening:

• Steam keeps throwing errors like "Corrupt Update Files" and "Missing Downloaded Files," particularly with Steamworks Common Redistributables. It gets stuck downloading or validating the same files over and over.
• If I start downloading PUBG from scratch, Steam sometimes jumps straight to around 30% installed while the actual download is still at 1%.
• Verifying the game files temporarily fixes everything. PUBG launches normally, but only once. As soon as I close the game and try to open it again, the same problem returns.
• The Zakynthos anti-cheat and BattlEye keep requesting administrator permission when I launch the game, but the issue never seems to get resolved.
• The NVIDIA App also crashes during initialization, even after reinstalling Windows and installing the drivers again.

What I've already tried:

1. Checking the hardware

I've checked the PC components and installed a new RAM stick. I also checked the SSD's health, and it reports 100%. So far, I haven't found any obvious hardware faults.

2. Reinstalling Windows

I performed a completely fresh Windows installation. I also removed the old MBR boot partitions from my secondary HDD so the system could use a clean EFI/UEFI boot setup on the primary SSD.

3. Reinstalling drivers and system components

I manually installed DirectX and the NVIDIA desktop drivers, including a clean driver installation. I also tried enabling .NET Framework 3.5 through DISM using /LimitAccess, because the normal Windows Features installer kept getting stuck on "Searching for required files."

4. Clearing PUBG files and checking permissions

I deleted the local TslGame configuration files under AppData and removed the leftover Wellbia anti-cheat directories. I also experimented with setting appmanifest_228980.acf to read-only and changing its StateFlags value to 4.

5. Trying different network settings

I've switched Steam's download region between Bangladesh, India, and Singapore. I've also flushed the DNS cache, reset Winsock, and tested a VPN to see whether my ISP or network connection was somehow involved.

6. Testing launch options and Windows security settings

I've tried -dx11 and -windowed -noborder in Steam's launch options. I also temporarily disabled Memory Integrity/Core Isolation to check whether Windows security was interfering with the game or its anti-cheat.

7. Investigating the anti-cheat service

I checked the Windows Registry underervices, but I couldn't find the zksvc subkey associated with Zakynthos. I'm wondering whether the service is failing to register or install correctly.

At this point, I've reinstalled Windows, checked the hardware, reinstalled the drivers, and repeatedly verified the game files. Yet PUBG still launches for barely a second before closing.

The fact that verifying the files lets me play exactly once is what confuses me most. The NVIDIA App failing on the same fresh Windows installation makes me wonder whether there's a wider driver, permissions, storage, or system-level problem rather than just a corrupted PUBG installation.

Has anyone experienced anything similar after a sudden power loss? Could the power cut have damaged something on the motherboard or storage controller, or am I looking in the wrong direction?

I'd appreciate any suggestions, especially if you've dealt with the same launch loop or the Zakynthos service failing to initialize. I'm happy to run more diagnostics if needed.

It was pretty obvious that every game was a targeted attempt to take out Virtus.pro.

I believe this is because it benefits their region if VP doesn’t do well?

Still, wouldn’t that be considered “teaming” if players prioritize their region over actually trying to win?

Krafton is a big fat joke

VP's buddy system is out of this world, the majority of games if one player is knocked, the trade is immediate, their calls are without hesitation, the circle reading, the third partying, everything is all a matter of QUICK clear, decision making, without EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT, making it easy to bounce back from bad games, I don't blame them for being so freaking confident, they believe and trust in each other.

I created this website to make PUBG Esports easier to follow and more fun to enjoy!
Feel free to try it out, and if you run into any issues or have ideas for new features, I’d love to hear your feedback! :)

During the company representative's livestream yesterday, Himass's management company, Anyone's Legend, stated that they are preparing a major lawsuit against Krafton over Himass's ban . To restore Himass's honor, justice will be served

In addition, many major PUBG teams in Vietnam have announced the disbandment of their PUBG rosters in protest against Krafton.

"어제 진행된 회사 대표의 라이브 방송에서, Himass의 소속사인 Anyone's Legend는 Himass의 밴 조치와 관련하여 크래프톤(Krafton)을 상대로 대규모 소송을 준비하고 있다고 밝혔습니다. Himass의 명예를 회복하기 위해 정의는 실현될 것입니다.

또한, 베트남의 여러 주요 PUBG 팀들은 크래프톤에 항의하는 의미로 소속 PUBG 로스터의 해체를 발표했습니다."

I love the idea of the Pubg Global Series. I stay up late and get up early to watch this live but seriously the organisers make it so hard I give up. Where is a clear and easily accessible schedule? Where is a feedback system? Do they not care about the barriers, suggested improvements, nothing from their consumers? Get someone who knows how to promote online competitive games please. I beg you.
