PUBG owners sue Epic Games' Fortnite for copyright

pubg player unknown battlegrounds
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds rose to fame last year when it was released by PUBG corporation. The game was so popular that it surpassed Steam's most popular game, DotA. It managed to gain millions of players even in its early access stage which was full of bugs and crashes. Not long ago since then its arch-rival Fortnite came into spotlight.

Unlike PUBG, Fortnite is free to play which attracted even more players and its unique theme managed to possibly even steal players from PUBG. Due to this fact and the growing similarities between the two games, PUBG corp has filed a lawsuit against Fortnite to protect its copyright laws. According to The Korean Time reports, PUBG corp is alleging copyright infringement against Epic games to determine if Fortnite has copied PUBG.

 Although Fortnite has its own unique features, both games still share Unreal Engine 4 which was created and licensed by none other than Epic Games. Both games also have successfully transitioned from PC to mobile which has rallied up the mobile gamers to play their favourite of either game on the go!

Unity Get Post web requests - Technoob Technology

Web requests in unity are super easy to use. We gonna use the UnityWebRequest class as the WWW class is deprecated now. UnityWebRequest class can be used for both Get and Post methods. The 'UnityEngine.Networking' namespace is required to work with UnityWebRequests.  This tutorial is made with some simple UI elements. First Let's see how the GET method works. 01. UnityWebRequest.GET We use this method to receive data from the server as normal get requests. Using coroutines in web requests is mandatory as we have to wait until the download is complete before showing the results, and the coroutines make this much easier. A simple button calls the method and a text element will show the result. The script contains a reference to the text element and the string URL of your PHP file.  When the button is pressed the button executes the ButtonGetData method and that method simply starts the GetData coroutine. We use the using keyword as this data
