PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS update for 17 May 2018

Gameplay

• Both the Lightweight Grip and Half Grip can now be attached to the Vector.

• Some minor weapon balance adjustments:

  • First shot from the M16A4 now has less recoil.

  • Decreased the spread of shotgun pellets.

  • Shotgun chokes and duckbills are now less effective at decreasing spread (so the effective spread for a shotgun with a choke or duckbill will be similar to before)

UI/UX

• CUSTOMIZATION > GEAR tab has been added. Go here to equip parachute skins.
  

• Tooltips for weapon attachments have been edited to make them more intuitive.

Localization

• Added support for Ukrainian. Thank you to all the Ukrainian players who participated in the translation process!

• Game lobby now supports multiple languages.

  • Multiple languages will be applied to various lobby components such as lobby menus (Play, Customization, Store, etc.), the options menu, and crates

  • 19 different languages are supported

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where certain buildings in Miramar were shown with default textures

• Fixed some walls in Miramar that could be partially passed through

• Removed the white mark that appeared alongside the aircraft icon on the minimap

• Scope reticle settings should no longer reset when weapons are dropped and picked up again

• We’ve improved the holographic sight’s reticle. It’s now the same size as a character silhouette seen from 100m away

• Certain animations on the buggy and minibus have been fixed

• Fixed an issue that sometimes caused characters to sit at odd angles if entering into vehicles from a prone position on a sloped surface

• Fixed an issue causing red dot and holo sight reticles to get smaller and blurry when swapping weapons

• “Damage-received” sounds should no longer play after winning a game

New Crate - Aviator

• A new crate (Aviator Crate) with new outfits has been added. Find it in the STORE menu

  • Aviator Crate requires an Aviator Key to be opened

• Added new parachute skin

  • The "Bengal Tiger" parachute skin can be purchased separately as an individual item for $4.99(price will vary slightly in some regions, based on global exchange rates). It can be purchased only once per account.
    • Bengal Tiger is unable to trade in Steam market
  • It is purchasable in STORE > ITEMS menu

• Remember that the Target Practice Pan skin will no longer be available after the planned 5/17 update!
