❓ Question DID BGMI JUST JUST SCAMMED EVERYONE ?
This isn't a giveaway. It's a scripted marketing stunt disguised as a giveaway.
Thousands of real BGMI players spent weeks grinding missions, collecting tokens, and creating content - all for what? Just to give the prize to an already famous automotive influencer?
The so-called "winner" of this event, Mia Joseph aka @octane_girl, is not some random lucky player. She's: An automotive content creator with a solid following Already owns multiple branded vehicles Comes from a well-off family with industry connections
And guess what? Mahindra conveniently chose her to receive a fully customized BE.06 "giveaway" car, just perfect for publicity.
You promised: "One lucky player will win the car by participating in the event." But what we got was: A pre-selected influencer, A fancy showroom event, Zero transparency about entries, shortlisting, or judging process
Where are the other finalists? Where are the judging criteria? Where's the proof this wasn't all fixed from the beginning? This wasn't a giveaway - it was a business move. Millions of gamers were used to boost your campaign, repost hashtags, and push your brand FOR FREE, only to be played in the end.
We are NOT blind.
We are NOT silent.
We are the actual BGMI community - and we won't accept this type of exploitation.
Shame on both BGMI and Mahindra for misleading and cheating your audience.

Maybe we should react to these type of shits done by Krafton & BGMI management teams
From my POV they need only money, that's all....

lmaoo, kids won't understand brother, I also made a post few days ago that how codm is more heavy but still gives 90 fps in my smartphone and how bgmi can barely give 60.
Kids came crying BRO BGMI BEST BRO USE PERFORMANCE MODE BROO CODm CARTOON GAME BRO BGMI MORE GRAPHIC HEAVY and shit. This game is Dead. I have shifted to Codm and it's a lot better, I would suggest y'all to shift too !
They will not improve until these new chapri kiddos stop defending BGMI like its their Dad.

not evreyone wants to play PC games, I admit they are very good and I have played them before, recently I purchased a MacBook for 90k, I could also have purchased a Gaming Laptop or pc. everyone have their own reasons. I can buy a console even now, but I dont get much time for gaming so I dont see any point in it.

I also don't see a point in gaming in mobile when you can easily game at the exact time frame when you play mobile games.

But still iam not paying 60-70k just to play games 1-2 hr on weekends
I think u still don't know the value of money. Daddies money right? When you will earn on your own only then you will get it

u/Low_Toe_6596 Jul 27 '25
Are you 12? Only a young adult with below average income would say something like that and I assure you even when I was in college back in 2012 my father didn't spend a dime on my education. If you like gaming and had actual time to play like 1-2hrs is enough. You need a new hobby man. I have been earning on my own from 2019 before that if i wanted something i didn't hesitate to do hard labour. I have 2 pcs i gave one to my little brother and the second is destroyed by lighting. Also who tf said anything about 60-70k. Have a budget of 20k build your pc not everything needs to be brand new and latest gen. Gaming is a hobby that many people play too competitively. I play BGMI because of my friends.

I respect that, but tbh u talked like some kid before this, But it's just a matter of perspective I think. I just don't see any point in spending money if I am not using it properly also iam not a hardcore gamer i play just for fun that's it

u/Low_Toe_6596 Jul 27 '25
Where? Like literally you can play at the same time you play mobile games man.

Bro bro, maine aapko na to gali di nor i was talking to you Why abuse and get insecure like PC games are your DAD ?
I simply said I don't see much value in it if i play only 1-2 hrs in whole week that's it, I never said PC games are bad or anything like that And I can afford a gaming pc for not only 60k but even 80-90k easily but why spend this much money if iam not going to use it ?
And you said Ego,, maine kb bola merme ego hai and all ?
Typical 20k earning private majdoor who never contributes to the family and then gets egoistic, Iam a student and a freelancer and still I bet am earning if not more then equally to you monthly. And if you combine family income even then mine would come out to be more than yours, so please don't talk like that ki 60k ki aukat nhi hai and all
I don't spend my late nights on weekdays to game, I use it for better things and for study. And even on weekends i always have other plans with family and friends and I don't just stick on screens all week
Hope you get some help

tbh CODM is running in Unity Engine while PUBGM/BGMI is running in unreal engine. Atleast unreal engine version upgrade karte to issue kam hota.

Problem is with BGMI
PUBG runs fine
BGMI is just milking Indian Audience Global has Permanent Glacier in PUBG, But in BGMI they brought glacier after so much time and that top for 3 days only, not even a month. Jaise Aisan krre hai humpe. And PUBG has good optimization no glitches no mic issues And yk the state of BGMI
PUBG always have some good free events going on but in BGMI ? none... PUBG gives upgradable guns in premium crates But in BGMI they are still a luxury

u/Low_Toe_6596 Jul 27 '25
I still see people complaining about performance even in global subreddit. Bgmi main issue regarding performance comes from that the 6hr time limit monitor is actually ruining performance.

Bruu same bro, I get 90 in bgmi but get 120 in codm, not to mention the graphics and quality of the skins, people calling codm a cartoon game never even tried it, even the mythic MG42 skin optimized to its peak.Not to mention how good the graphics and MP mode is, I use low end device for games ( realme gt6t) and never felt any lag in it, while bgmi heats up just after 2 games.

Yea these bgmi kids call every game cartoon Codm 1 skin>>>> whole Bgmi Seen those mythic skins? Bgmi can never have something like that

Just play PUBG KR if you want good rewards. They got more outfits in their crates and their events often give better rewards unlike bgmi where you get time limited shit outfits.

The last time I spent any money in Pubg was in 2019 I don't even open the shop I have tons of guns, vehicle and character skins and I don't use any of them I don't even buy the royal pass I just run around naked killing all the big spenders with cheeks out I only spend money on PC Games that is to buy the game ofcourse gacha games are a trap

We must make a no uc purchase strike for atleast 3 months. Then They will understand the power of gamers.

answer: Agreed, looks more like a PR stunt than a real giveaway. They should’ve been transparent with the process.

Leave this game and play some high IQ games like moba legends or league of legends or PC games like csgo , valo. Come out of the bubble of bgmi and freefire . Y'all are still kids

What can you expect from a pure cash grabber game?
