Fortnite Vs. PUBG - Which Game Is Better?

5. Match Flow/Intensity

Speaking of perseverance, as a player/individual you can decide how much time you have to dedicate to a one-off match or afternoon of gaming. PUBG's bouts - providing you don't get taken out in the first few moments - tend to be half hour-long affairs, its maps scattering players far and wide, meaning encounters are rare, but deadly when they do happen.

You can routinely go 20 minutes with the overall player count hovering around the 70s, amping up the tension as thoughts of other players' loadouts getting better than yours increases - not to mention the encroaching sensation that there's always someone behind you, above or nearby. You're only as safe as your personal concoction of confidence and cover, and that's a compelling feeling to get lost in.

Fortnite is the opposite of this, with 60% of the playerbase falling within the first 5-10 minutes. Easily identifiable manmade structures on the map are often flocked to, and the firefights within are a great place to practice, though it means the match overall has a "middle third" that's, honestly, quite boring.

Whether down to hearing a car in the distance or a door swing open below your formerly safe space in the corner of a building's top floor, PUBG's militaristic sterility reinforces its intensity, and the map sizes mean firefights seldom wipe out meaningful numbers of players at once.

Winner: PUBG
