Small bugs in the Sanhok patches fixed by hotfix. Some optimizations and performance improvements for the new card were not uploaded correctly. This was fixed on July 9th. Another problem that has been fixed in the meantime ensured that the ping-based match assignment did not work properly and that North America was set as the default server for all players.

Anyone who stumbled upon the bug that prevented team members from being resuscitated can be pleased, a fix for this will be applied before patch 17.1.

PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS Update 17.1

Gameplay

Improved off-road driving performance of the pickup truck.
The iron sight default zeroing for all SMGs is now 100m.
The crossbow's zeroing will always be 25m even with a scope attached.

Bug fixes

Fixed an issue with the wrong 4x scope (ACOG) reticle was used on the SLR. A cross type reticle is now used, instead of the chevron.
Fixed an issue preventing you from being able to aim right away after switching over from the driver's seat.

A NOTE FROM THE TEAM

Our goal is to always work to give you a better battle royale experience. To do that, we know that we have to ship more performance improvements and additional bug fixes. We agree with the criticisms of the game that many of you have made recently, including comments that our efforts need to be more effective and that the game still needs more improvement. We greatly appreciate this feedback and we know that all of it comes from a place of support and love for PUBG.

Right now we're developing new plans to resolve various problems facing PUBG, prioritizing server performance, client-side performance, anti-cheat, and bugs. While we'll continue shipping new content and preparing for PGI over the next few weeks, we intend to have more concrete info to share about these plans shortly after PGI is over. Our dev team is doing their best to make sure that our plans are well-laid out so we can announce meaningful and detailed changes.

We love PUBG as much as you do, and we'll continue doing everything possible to improve the game.

Thanks for playing,
Your friends at PUBG Corp.
