PUBG Update 24.2 Major Changes
The following are all of the changes made in the update made for balance purposes and from community requests.
PUBG Tactical Gear
- Why the PUBG Blue Chip Detector was removed
The BCD was abused to the point of no return after update 24.1, where it gained practically zero cooldown and a 50m total range. With this gone, players cannot spam the BCD and have a constant radar location of other enemies.
Gamemodes
- Training mode addition to the game
The training mode will allow players to see where they lack and work on their weaknesses more efficiently, like spay accuracy on target and the hit distribution.
PUBG New Reputation System
The introduction of the reputation system may change how teammates communicate with eachtother. This would encourage players to contribute more to the game as a team in order to get reputation points for the rewards.
BP Rewards
The BP points people get from matches has increased by a lot, which means that in order to get more BP than before, players will have to play fewer matches.
PUBG New Match-Making System And Changes
The new match-making system should further close the gap between the skill level of all the players in the match, and with the new way rank calculation works, it is more likely that players in squads will either stick around until the end even after dying while communicating and helping, afking til the end, or abusing comms. The latter is not too likely since getting muted for abusive communication now carries a heavy penalty for reputation points.
