PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has plenty of performance issues on Xbox
PUBG was always going to launch on Xbox One in a state behind where the PC version is right now, but it’s a little further back than we anticipated. Some more recent additions are in the game (vaulting, for instance, is intact), but there are also some features just outright missing from this iteration.
More pressing, right now, are the performance issues. Last week we were told that PUBG would hit 30fps on Xbox One, but it seems like it struggles to do that, at least at launch. There have been some pretty major texture pop-in problems, too. Digital Foundry has an excellent run-down of the game’s issues, both on Eurogamer and in the video below.
As they point out, the game looks “absolutely dreadful” in the opening lobby and during the plane drop at the start, and the game drops well below 20fps in several spots. As the match goes on, though, things improve – although the Xbox One X has a much more consistent frame-rate, the Xbox One version can hit 30fps too. It just “varies dramatically”, as they say.
As their write-up points out, there seems to be some input lag too, and all of this works together to make shoot-outs a bit tricky. From my own experience, the controller layout is also difficult to come to terms with, with buttons typically serving multiple functions depending on whether they are pressed or held.
As Digital Foundry points out though, the game isn’t exactly famed for its stability on PC, so this is, to some extended, to be expected.

It's great they brought this game to console but the graphic lag and just graphics as a whole are terrible.

I've played one game, map had no textures when parachuting so I had to guess my usual go to place on pc, inventory management is far too slow and it's going to take me a while to get used to the aiming down sights.
Still got 5 kills though, it will all improve over time.

ProJimmyRustler I would not chalk this up to "its a game preview". This game was known to run poorly on decent PCs and that seems to be the same case for Xbox.
They advertise this game to run at 30 fps, but just touching 30fps should not count or be advertised as 30fps. This game consistently runs at 20-25 fps on the Xbox one and One X respectively as seen in the video.
This game is on an unacceptable state for the Xbox One. The Xbox One X version would see major improvements if the resolution could be turned down at the users discretion.
I agree. I booted the game up twice and both times I crashed so I just said F it.

lbreadsticklFibrilMasproFibril To be expected I guess, its in game preview and just launched. I have to admit the game runs pretty good on my One X but noticed a lot of lag and game crashes with my friends on Xbox One's. Like Fortnite, they'll tune some things and it'll work out later on.
Same here and even on my X it's crashed a few times.
Oh snap really? I haven't had any issues on my One X at all.
Game hasn't crashed either on my X, but it's dreadful to play. I can only play one game a day before my head starts hurting, when I die spectating drains me a lot too. That shit will make your eyes hurt.
Sounds like you need Gunnars:)
