An enthusiastic player appoints himself as the military leader in PUBG. The team is initially not very enthusiastic, but then they obey his every word.
When thinking of games with a large role-playing community, titles like Guild Wars 2, World of Warcraft, or Neverwinter Nights come to mind first. Very few would think of the “Battle Royale” game PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. However, that is precisely why such encounters are particularly funny when they happen.
During a match, the player StoneMountain64 was assigned to a group and immediately fell into his role as squad leader (which he gave himself). With military commands, he directed his teammates around, who were initially not very enthusiastic. The longer the match goes on, the more they get into the game.
After the team gets ambushed, StoneMountain64 flees, even though his teammates are down on the ground. Presumably, they would have died anyway due to the zone restriction. The whole video is quite funny and you can watch it here.
Ultimately, StoneMountain64 manages to win the round, after which he is praised by the entire team. A good leader must also sometimes leave subordinates behind to win the war – at least in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
Have you experienced such adventures in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds or even played “in character” seriously? Or do you find such behavior silly?
Interesting: The same YouTuber already made clear statements in The Division: This is what it sounds like when an agent takes his mission very seriously.
