Bot Opponents

As occurs with lots of games, we have actually seen the general skill level of our players grow considerably over the last three years. While PUBG veterans continue to develop their skills and enhance, we see more typically that lots of newer players are being gotten rid of early with no kills– and usually with no damage dealt. You have actually been informing us for a while that the widening skill space is creating a more and more tough environment for some of our players, and we’re now all set to discuss our strategy to help this.

Gameplay

Weapon & & Armor Balance

Attack Rifle:

With the intro of Ranked Mode, we wanted to get in some balance changes we have actually been preparing. The goal of this balance modification is to reinforce the attributes of each weapon type so that tactics modification depending on the guns you pick and to help make sure one specific weapon isn’t viewed as subdued.

The M416 has actually long been the most powerful AR and one of the best weapons in the game as an entire, so we have actually adjusted it and rubbed some of the other ARs to give players option options.

We have actually also adjusted shotguns, which were viewed as practically worthless unless at a severe close range.

• Increased reload times for M416, M16 A4, and SCAR-L.
  • We have actually adjusted the reload time of some of these mid-range weapons to make them less of a go-to for their efficiency in all scenarios. This modification should particularly impact close-quarters engagements, as you’ll have a longer window to rush opponents refilling an AR.
• M416
  • While fully equipped, the M416 was deadly even in far ranges with its exceptional stability.

Kill circulation rate over Distance/Phase

The power of precise and quick sprays was even capable of changing DMR positions in varieties over 30 m. We do not think one gun should continuously be the best option in all situations; however instead give players options depending on their requirements in the current circumstance. Obviously, we will see the data continuously for future changes.

• Reduced base damage by 1 (41 → 40)
• Reduced muzzle speed from 880 m/s to 780 m/s
• Changed damage curve ranges from 60 m– 450 m to 50 m– 350 m

Weapon damage per round per pick up

• M16 A4, MK47 Mutant.
  • These two weapons do not provide assistance full-auto firing mode, which already caused them to be chosen up less. Contribute to that stability issues or lower firing rates, and it’s simple to see why they weren’t being chosen up as typically. We have actually made some changes to give them more life on the Battlegrounds.
  • Reduced recoil when firing in fast succession in semi-auto and bursts mode.
  • Added tracers (shooter just).
• Beryl M762
  • Based on the analysis result on the weapon damage per round per pick up, it appeared Beryl M762 had somewhat less performance than anticipated compared to other assault rifles.
  • Increased muzzle speed from 680 m/s to 740 m/s.
  • Reduced recoil.

Shotguns:

• As the gunmetal in the game has actually supported, shotguns were rapidly left in the dust as they had little use in most late-game scenarios. With this update, we have adjusted the shotgun group so that they can be utilized more dependably throughout the match
• Body damage multiplier changes
  • Increased limb multiplier from 0.9 to 1.05
  • Increased head multiplier from 1.25 to 1.5.
• It increased hip-fire precision.
• It reduced the precision penalty throughout the motion.
• Reduced damage drop over distance for all shotguns.
• Saiga S12 K.
  • Extended and Ext. Quickdraw publications now hold ten rounds.
  • Suppressor adds minor pellet spread decrease (2/3 of choke bonus).
• S1897
  • Increased pump-action speed
• Sawed-off

Armor:

• Vests not just offered armor however also offered extra inventory space. It felt entirely wrong to right away lose that space when your jacket was destroyed in combat. When your coat was damaged, your survivability also considerably reduced. Leaving you very susceptible up until you found a new one With this modification, ‘destroyed’ vests will no longer vanish, and neither will your inventory space.
• In addition, vests will continue to offer 20% protection and minor goal punch decrease as soon as destroyed The base protection level of the destroyed vest is the exact same no matter the type of vest you’ re wearing This should mean more competitive engagements, even if the circumstance does not allow for the robbery of a new vest.

Gas Can Improvements

With the last Gas Can update, we made it so gas cans might take off when being shot. We include more options with this update, which should give players some more ingenious methods to set traps and take down opponents.

• You can equip the Gas Can in a melee weapon slot.
• Press “attack” to put Gas on the ground. It takes around 7 seconds to clear the can.
• Spilled fuel can be set on fire with gunshots, molotovs, and grenade surges. Fire deals the exact same damage as a Molotov; however, it burns longer (~20 seconds).
• Spilled fuel evaporates in about 3.5 minutes.
• You can also throw the Gas Can the exact same way as melee weapons (goal, then press attack), which causes it to launch some fuel upon landing, making it easier to take off and fire up.
• Gas Cans can not be chosen up or recycled after being thrown. However, they can still take off.

Changes to Gas Can surges:

• It offers less preliminary damage—Max 40 dmg, which scales down with distance from the surge.
• Now sets the neighboring area on fire like a Molotov, dealing damage over time.
