PUBG PC

The next PUBG PC update is going to become available on live servers very soon, the developer confirmed today.

PUBG PC update #30, which will introduce a new vehicle as well as more items that can be purchased with BP, a new weapon, new gameplay tweaks and more, will go live as soon as the 7 hours scheduled maintenance ends.

In case you missed them, here are the full PUBG PC update #30 notes.

New Vehicle: BRDM-2 

“Players feeling froggy for a fight will now have the chance to call down an armor plated amphibious assault BRDM-2 by using the Flare Gun!”

  • BRDM-2 can only be called in as a special Care Package using the Flare Gun on all maps and it replaces the armored UAZ.
  • Over waterways or terrain, this amphibious vehicle increases your options to navigate firefights and the Battlegrounds themselves.
  • Characteristics
    • BRDM-2’s total HP is 2500 and its health is twice as much as UAZ, while its gigantic, sturdy wheels cannot be damaged.
    • Powerful bulletproof vehicle that can reduce incoming damage such as ammunition based assaults as well as grenades and red zone damage.
    • BRDM-2 is an amphibious vehicle that can continue to ground travel on water, but players can’t shoot while on board.
    • It has a capacity of up to four players on board, and Its top water speed is 22km/h and top speed on the road is 102km/h when boosted.

New Weapon: Deagle

“Bang Bang Pow? That’s the sound of two shots from a Deagle breaking a level 3 helmet.”

  • The Deagle is a handgun that deals the strongest pistol damage with great muzzle velocity and will be spawned on all maps.
  • Deagle can deal 62 damage per shot and take both red-dot and holographic sights, various magazines and a laser sight that improves hip fire accuracy.
  • With greater than average pistol damage and muzzle velocity comes harder to control recoil.
  • Deagle has a single firemode type that uses .45 ACP ammo and the standard magazine fits 7 rounds. (It can be extended to 10 with an extended magazine)

Gameplay

Ledge Grab

“Find new ways to fight, jump, grab, get up, and go with our new Ledge Grab feature!”

Features

  • Ledge grab allows you to take new paths by climbing up the edge of roofs, fences, and obstacles up to 2.5 meters high, and jump from building to building or container to container.
  • Now that players can move to places they weren’t able to reach before, we look forward to seeing gameplay with new strategies climbing to places your opponent won’t be able to anticipate.

How to use

  • You can activate ledge grab by either jumping or vaulting (space bar) and then continue to press the space bar or by pressing the space bar at the right timing in midair, heading towards the target location.
  • You can cancel the ledge grab while it is activated and fall to the ground by following the same method of cancelling the vaulting/climbing.

A message from the Dev. team on ledge grab 

This is the first iteration of ledge grab, you cannot yet hang on the railings or slide down railings. However, ledge grab will be updated twice in total including this update, the dev team will keep working to enable those features just mentioned from the other update in the future.

We anticipate a similar adoption period for ledge grab as we had with the initial introduction of vaulting. We will work to isolate any improvements or modifications that need to be made during the early stages of the feature’s launch.

Please try out the new ledge grab and kindly give us your feedback so that we can further improve and polish the feature, which is the utmost priority to the Dev. team.

We will continue to make our best efforts to quickly ensure the feature is as stable and useful as possible. We very much appreciate your interest and feedback.

Improved Gas Can

“We like the cans. The cans that go boom!”

Features

  • Added strategic elements to the Gas Can, an item that used to be seen to have few advantages to loot.
  • As soon as Gas Can explodes, it will deal damage to all players in a radius around it’s location.
  • When the Gas Can is blown up, it deals damage in a radius around it, dealing more damage to those close by
  • Keep in mind that you can hurt both yourself and your teammates if you stand to close to the explosion, so be careful!

How to use 

  • Drop a Gas Can on the ground and damage it with bullets or throwables, which will cause it to explode and deal damage to those close by.
  • Each Gas Can will now display individually in the inventory when players have more than one Gas Can to reduce confusion, as dropping multiple Gas Cans will not multiply the damage.
    • Example:

Radio Message

“You can’t talk over a chicken dinner if you don’t communicate in a match. Radio Messages will keep you coordinated with every teammate, no matter the region or mic situation. “

Playing with players from different regions in random Duo or Squad matches or players with no access to voice chat have made it difficult to establish team-based strategy through close communication between team members. To help solve this problem, we are introducing text-based Radio Messages that will help you communicate with your team more quickly and easily for successful strategic gameplay.

  • Hold the mouse wheel or F3 to open the Radio Message Wheel UI.
    • There are 8 types of messages provided–selected messages will be displayed on the left screen and immediately shown to your teammates.
    • Ping and Enemy Spotted, in particular, can be used in various circumstances. You can use them more quickly with separate key bindings.
      • Ping: Click the mouse wheel or press F3
      • Enemy Spotted: Double click the mouse wheel or double press F3
    • Pings has various interactions.
      • Select Ping near a certain item, and you can share the name and location of the pinged item with your teammates.
      • You can also use Ping on Care Packages or death crates to share their location.
      • Ping the direction you want to move toward to share the direction with your teammates.
      • All these features above automatically place a marker on the map and will be useful to utilize together with the Tactical Map Marker.
    • Enemy Spotted allows you to quickly share the location of an enemy you’ve spotted.
      • Use Enemy Spotted at the enemy’s location to mark it on the map and share it with your teammates.
      • Messages vary by distance:
        • Near Range: less than 50M
        • Medium Range: less than 200M
        • Long Range: 200M or more
        • Example: ENEMY SPOTTED! Long Range 300′
      • Ping and Enemy Spotted send messages to teammates within 500M.
    • Need Ammo works dynamically, with the message reflecting the ammo type of the weapon you are holding.
      • Example: If you select Need Ammo while holding an M416, the message sent to your teammates will be “I NEED 5.56mm.”
  • You can mute Radio Messages from teammates individually in the Team Management menu.
  • Kill distance has been added to center-screen kill messages.
  • The distance between you and the enemy you killed will be displayed alongside the standard kill message in the middle of the screen.
    • Kill distance will only be shown you kill enemies from over 100 m away.
      • This will appear only when you kill the enemy by yourself.
    • DBNO kill messages remain the same and won’t show kill distance.
