PUBG Exploit Allows Players To Avoid Blue Circle Damage
When it comes to PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, there has been an issue with cheaters. This has prompted the developer to take action against a mountain of players, but they are unable to catch everyone. In regards to the latest PUBG exploit to be discovered, some have managed to find a way to avoid damage caused by the dreaded blue circle of death.
For those not in the know, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds features a terrifying circle that closes in on remaining players. When up close and personal, the circle is more like a giant wall of electricity that will harm everything in its path until said players have been eliminated. However, with the latest PUBG exploit, players are finding a way around the vicious circle. At least, that is what some Redditors have been reporting lately. One user by the name of “hanchengsh” posted an image with a comment that reads “If you believe you are the last one alive but don‘t see anyone nearby, and died to circle and got second place, look at this guy.” Check it out below:
What can be gathered by the information in the image above is that one particular player is really good at playing the role of pacifist. With a handful of wins under their belt that consisted of inflicting no damage to others, it’s safe to say that something nefarious is afoot. Other Reddit users were quick to jump in on the commenting action, stating that they have also encountered players like this.
Essentially, the glitch or hack allows those exploiting it to remain stationary while the rest of the participants fight to the death. Of course, when the last person thinks they’ve killed their only foe, but the match doesn’t end, the circle will officially close, ending their run and handing victory to the unfaithful exploiter hanging out somewhere on the map. It’s unknown how exactly players are triggering this PUBG exploit, but now that it is gaining traction in the community, we’re sure a resolution is surely to be in the works soon.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is currently available for PC, and it remains in early access on Xbox One. Keep it tuned to Don’t Feed the Gamers as this story develops, and for other gaming news going on right now, check out the following:
