KRAFTON's latest battle royale PUBG New State introduced a futuristic and dystopian twist to the popular franchise; however, many players have been complaining about experiencing a slew of bugs, crashes and server connection issues in the game.
Indeed, the developers have attempted to ameliorate some of these issues with various updates, however, these incidentally came with their own unique set of problems.
