PUBG: New State March 2022 Patch Notes New Content New Weapon: MG3 The MG3 is an LMG that uses 7.62mm ammo and has a magazine capacity of 75 rounds. This gun will spawn in Care Packages on all Maps. It also has a chance of appearing in the Police Station Weapons Box in Chester, Troi. The MG3 has two rates of fire: 660RPM and 990RPM. The weapon's rate of fire is set at 990RPM by default. When set to 990RPM, the MG3 has the highest DPS in the game! New Gun Customizations Vector [C2] Drum Magazine Using this customization on the Vector attaches a high-capacity magazine capable of holding 45 rounds. However, this customization will significantly reduce the weapon's reload speed, so it will take more time to reload. Mini-14 [C2] Open Stock Slot This customization will open up the Stock Slot on the Mini-14, allowing for tactical stock attachments that strengthen stability and recoil control. However, this customization will slightly decrease the weapon's ADS speed, so it will take more time to ADS. Survivor Pass Vol. 5 Survivor Pass Vol. 5 introduces Cynthia Song of Project Justice. Complete all the Story Missions to unlock her costumes and character appearance! You can get the [Shadow Assassin] costume set by upgrading to the Premium Pass. Even better rewards are available through the Premium+ Pass! With the level rewards in this Premium Pass, you can earn back enough NC to purchase the next Premium Pass!

Lobby Theme Update A new Lobby theme has been added to celebrate Spring's arrival! Season 2 We're wrapping up Season 1 and kicking off Season 2 in this patch! When you enter the Lobby, you will receive a season summary as well as your rewards for Season 1. Tiers will also be reset for Season 2 depending on your final Season 1 Tiers. Tier rewards will be partially revamped this season, and new rewards will be available for Survivors who reach Conqueror Tier again this season. The Tier Points System has also been revamped for this season. Map / Mode Updates Maps Erangel Update 3 areas have been added or revamped to make overall improvements to the southwest region of Erangel's northern island! Avanpost, a new area, has been added to Erangel. The Ferry Pier has been updated. More containers and warehouses have been added, which will increase the amount of items that spawn in this area. The Dock has been updated. A factory has been added to the middle of the Quarry. The addition of this new building will increase the amount of items that spawn in this area and add new elements to the fight. Vehicle Balance Updates The overall spawn rates of vehicles have been slightly increased. The electric car, Electron, will now spawn in Erangel. The Waverider, a gasoline-fueled boat, will now spawn in Erangel. Motorbikes with sidecars and the Aquarail will no longer spawn. EV Batteries are now available for purchase in the Drone Store. Map Balance Updates Certain buildings with complex interior structures have been changed for easier farming and character movement. Window sizes have been increased to make parkouring easier. Buildings and internal structural layouts of construction sites have undergone small changes. BR: Extreme (Troi) The initial Playzone has been set to be more dynamic. Supply planes will not be deployed after Phase 4. Players will not longer be able to redeploy teammates using the Green Flare Gun after Phase 5. Modes General RDM and TDM statistics can now be viewed in the [Statistics] screen. Career Results for RDM and TDM have also been added to the [Career Results] screen. Round Deathmatch (Arena) The Care Packages in the middle of the Arena have been changed so that the items will spawn inside the package every round. The spawn area has been increased and spawn locations of players have been adjusted to fix the issue where players would be inhibited by their teammates' movements. Team Deathmatch (Station) New elimination events have been added! Fulfill certain requirements when eliminating your opponents to complete these events. Headshot: Eliminate an enemy with a shot to the head Strike: Eliminate an enemy with a frag grenade Kingslayer: Eliminate the player with the highest score on the enemy team Revenge: Eliminate the player who killed you during your next life/respawn Killing Spree: Eliminate 3 enemies without dying Balance Changes Weapons L85A3 Damage increased from 39 to 41 Slightly increased damage drop-off distance The L85A3 has great stability but is not a popular pick due to its low DPS. Now, this gun will be more effective in mid-ranged combat with the increased damage and range. SKS Slightly increased muzzle velocity Even though the SKS has high stability, its low muzzle velocity resulted in the SKS having a low pick rate compared to the SLR. Now with higher muzzle velocity, it should be easier to hit moving targets with this gun. Kar98k [C1] Customization - Enhanced Bolt Increased bolt-action speed by approximately 10% The Kar98k's customization now offers more advantages, with the bolt-action system now offering a marked improvement in speed. MP5K [C1] Customization - Laser Sight The customization's penalty, which increased the MP5K's horizontal recoil, has been slightly reduced. Mini-14 [C1] Customization - Polymer Receiver Damage increased by 4 Decreased recoil control The Mini-14's C1 customization has been reworked and now offers completely different stats. You can customize the Mini-14 with the C1 customization for increased firepower. However, if you prefer increased stability, go for the C2 customization! S686 [C1] Customization - Double Trigger This customization has been changed so that you can now switch between single-fire and burst-fire modes. Previously, burst-fire was the only firing mode available when customizing the S686 with the Double Trigger. Now, single-fire mode is also an option when the S686 is customized. Choke (SG) Decreased pellet spread slightly. Chokes will further decrease bullet spread, buffing shotguns that can use them overall. Vehicles Riding Shot Nerfs Due to the high accuracy of shots when firing from a vehicle, riding shots have been nerfed this patch. When firing a weapon from a vehicle, weapons will have: Increased bullet spread Reduced recoil control The updated values for these stats differ for each weapon. Volta Nerfs Due to the Volta's superior driving performance compared to other vehicles, this vehicle has been nerfed. Acceleration: The Volta's acceleration when using the boost has been decreased. Handling: The Volta's left/right handling angles have been decreased. Sound: The volume of the Volta's driving sound has been increased. Hitbox Adjustments (Volta, UAZ) The exterior areas of the car frames that covered the hitbox of passengers have been modified for both vehicles. Hitboxes of passengers riding a Volta or UAZ have been slightly increased. Vehicle Handling Buffs (Nova, Mesta) Although the Nova and Mesta can both travel at high speeds, their poor handling deterred many players from driving them. In this patch, some improvements were made to these vehicles to improve driving performance. Novas and Mestas have been updated so that turning will have reduced skid and increased recovery. The suspensions of the Nova and Mesta have been enhanced. Both vehicles will have better recovery after landing and turning, allowing them to quickly drive forwards. Vehicle Explosion Nerf When the vehicle you are in explodes, you will be knocked down instead of dying immediately. Trunk Items that are stored in the Trunk will now be highlighted and displayed when the Trunk button appears. A new Trunk button animation has been added. This animation will trigger when additional items are stored in the Trunk while the Trunk button is visible. Other Sound Each area of the body will result in a different sound effect when hit with bullets. A unique sound effect will play when an enemy is shot in the torso so that players can easily identify where their enemies were hit. Sound effects will differ depending on if and what type of body armor the enemy player is wearing. Parkour The volume and audible range of sound effects when parkouring have been increased. Combat Roll A sound effect has been added to combat rolls. Flare Guns Green/Red Flare Guns have been improved so that redeployed teammates and Care Packages are dropped closer to the location where the gun was fired.

Quality of Life Updates Control Improvements Specific Aim Assist Options Added You can now enable or disable aim assist for specific firing modes (Hip Fire, Shoulder, Scope Mode) when [Aim Assist] is enabled in [Settings > Controls]. The Aim Assist UI with the settings for the three firing modes was visible since the last update, but the settings were not implemented. This issue has been fixed in this patch. Touch Stabilization Added An option to enable Touch Stabilization has been added. Enabling this option will help compensate for hand tremors and shaking hands, but precise screen inputs and controls might be ignored. This option applies only to touch controls.
