Fortnite Vs. PUBG - Which Game Is Better?

7. Loot Systems & Clarity Of Upgrades/Inventory

Onto one of the most integral mechanics in the game: Their loot systems. Both require dropping into massive maps with either nothing on you or a pickaxe, before scavenging all nearby areas to get armour and weapons.

In PUBG, this gets split into what feels like an overwhelming amount of categories, with many of them being ultimately pointless. You've got shoes, shirts, t-shirts and hats right next to tiered police riot masks, armour vests and work boots. The latter will contribute to an overall armour stat, but it's one you'll have to figure out the ramifications of by tracking your health drop the next time you're shot.

The same goes for weapons. Is a UMP better than an Uzi in a straight showdown? They're both sub-machine guns, but you'll have to do the research yourself. (Spoilers: UMP every time).

In Fortnite, all of this is streamlined. Weapons come in four "rarity" colours outside of grey (blue, green, purple and gold), with immediately noticeable differences in damage and attachments. PUBG asks that you figure out and use attachments separately - something that you'll feel the benefit of, but the entire process of navigating loot and your inventory in general is handled far better in Epic's game.

In Fortnite, your health and armour stats are bright green and blue, on screen and clear, with weapon icons shining a colour representative of damage that can be dealt. In PUBG, you're left with arbitrary numbers where you can assume the higher the better, but it's all left to trial and error.

Winner: Fortnite
