PUBG revealed a super awesome Update – Balance guns, add new Scopes, weapons and vehicles

As you all know, PUBG is preparing to balance the AR assault rifle genre with the goal of eliminating the need to choose only one gun model in the entire match. This is aimed at the goal that no gun in the game is useless and no weapon is better overall. Now, details about this gun balance update have arrived, along with the reveal of new weapons, accessories and vehicles in PUBG.
​

Here is the Full List of new content and modifications of PUBG’s upcoming super awesome Update 1.0 #12:

• The stock of the gun will return to normal faster after moving.​

Types of grenades​

• Increases explosive damage and adds effects and movements when damaged by Frag Grenade.​

• Previously, Frag Grenade’s damage depended quite a lot on the reflected damage (when the grenade fell), rather than the actual explosion effect. Adjusted the damage to only be applied when hit with explosive effects.​

• Removed the delay when firing the first salvo when the character is not in running mode.​

• Reloading certain weapons (M24, Kar98k, S1897, S686, etc.) will not limit movement speed when aiming.​

• The splash of the scope when hitting a bullet will depend on the amount of damage received. This means that the more damage taken, the greater the splash.​

Equipment and accessories​

• Hat 3 will only be available in the Airdrop.​

​

Mirado​

​

New accessories​

• Duckbill – Accessories for Shotgun (S1897, S12K). Helps to reduce horizontal dispersion of bullets but increase vertical dispersion.​
