New vehicle:ATV

The fan-requested mountain bike is here in the PUBG PC 15.1 update! Unlike other vehicles, the ATV will be a collectable item that spawns in various locations around the map in its folded state. Since the bike makes hardly any noise, this will be the coolest method of getting around the map. What is more interesting is that the bike cannot be destroyed, including your HP when riding. Added sprint and jump function to add realistic cycling function.

Weapon-balancing update

P90

P90 is an SMG recently introduced in the PC version of Player's Unknown Battlegrounds. PUBG PC 15.1 update brought several weapon changes

  • Increased horizontal and vertical recoil
  • Increased ADS deflection during full auto burst
  • Care package ammo lowered from 250 -> 200 bullets

Shotgun

Even after dealing heavy damage, players avoid using shotguns in PUBG. In order to force players to use shotguns, the developers made the following changes to the weapon:

  • Increased damage drop range to improve effective range by several meters per shotgun
  • Increased hit probability at close range
  • Increased sawing damage by 1
  • Reduced spread of sawn pellets

LMG

Light Machine Guns such as the new MG3 are not considered by players as they continue to choose Assault Rifles. So here are the following weapon changes:

  • Reduced recoil when firing while crouched and standing
  • Increased bodily damage multiplier from 1.0 to 1.05
  • Increased M249 damage by 1
  • Increased MG3 damage by 2
  • MG3 horizontal recoil decreased

SMG

Submachine guns are the most collected weapons after the assault rifle, these weapons work effectively for those who are unable to control the recoil. However, players swap it as soon as they find an AR.

  • Increased headshot damage multiplier from 1.8 to 2.1
  • Increased PP-19 Bizon weapon accuracy during ADS full auto fire
  • Decreased UMP45 damage at longer range
  • Decreased accuracy of UMP45 weapon when fully auto firing ADS

Charger Balance

Magazine attachment capacity has been adjusted so players are forced to think strategically and attach their preferred magazine. For example, if players choose M416:

  • Default magazine:30 rounds
  • QuickDraw magazine:30 rounds and 60% faster reloading
  • Extended magazine:42 rounds
  • Extended QuickDraw magazine:40 rounds and 15% faster reloading
