A bundle of latest stuff has arrived on Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds‘s check servers immediately. Heading up Update 21 (discover the full notes here) is Training Mode, a small apply map for as much as 20 gamers the place no person dies (even for those who kill them), and there’s loads of toys to check this newfound immortality on associates and strangers alike.
There’s a brand new assault rifle – the 7.62mm MK47 Mutant – and a brand new laser sight attachment to spice up accuracy in shut quarters fight. Plus, Alice’s beloved scooter has been dethroned as Plunkbat’s final weapon. Bow down, because the rising juggernaut that’s the Tukshai rolls on by means of.
The massive addition this replace is Training Mode. A small however densely packed map filled with parachuting targets to apply touchdown on, firing ranges, race-tracks, ramps to apply your driving abilities on and extra. Death holds no sway over this small and idyllic land of studying, so if somebody cheekily shoots you within the face, the bottom you’ll be able to hit is one well being. Training Mode is joined by means of matchmaking and helps 5-20 gamers, so anticipate antics, however nothing you can’t survive.
Less dramatic however nonetheless attention-grabbing are a brand new gun and attachment. The MK47 Mutant is a mid-range rifle with a 20-round journal, and no full-auto mode. You can fireplace single rounds or two-shot bursts, however no spraying allowed. It has an built-in inventory so there’s no changing that, however it in any other case is as upgradeable as some other AR. Laser sights are the opposite massive shooty addition. Slap one onto a weapon and it turns into much more correct when hip-firing and soft-aiming. I’m hoping for a pistols-only warzone occasion with laser sights for all for some high-agility play.
But completely most necessary this replace is the Tukshai. Exclusive to Sanhok (and thus making it the one good map within the game), it’s a 3-person car that may exchange UAZ, Dacia and Minibus spawns. It’s sluggish, it offers successfully zero safety and it seems humorous, which speaks to the huge confidence and prowess of anybody seen driving one round. There’s a particular place in heaven reserved for crews that roll collectively in one in every of these beauties.
There’s a large number of smaller updates on this patch too, together with a brand new beauty reward system, an enhanced map-marker system to make crew coordination simpler, a extra seen Bluezone wall-of-death and a few basic UI tweaks. But all of this pales compared to the may of the Tukshai. Respect it. Update 21 is stay on the Plunkbat check servers now. See the patch notes here.
