Playerunknowns battlegrounds test server update#

The new update also makes changes to the sound, performance, spectate mode, and UI/UX, as well as fixes a few bugs. Also, on Erangel, there are now more trees and small hills along the river to provide additional cover, and on Miramar, some of the higher slopes have been lowered to make vehicle travel easier. Update 18 also adds a few more houses, trees, and roads to Erangel and Miramar. So if you shoot someone in the arm and the bullet passes through to hit someone behind them in the head, the first person takes damage like they've been shot in the body and the second person takes more damage from a perfect headshot. Bullets will now follow their flight path until they hit the ground, and travel with the same force and velocity regardless of how many bodies they pass through. The PTS applies bullet penetration effects to all firearms, making it impossible to shield a teammate with your body. When it's raining, it's more difficult to hear player's moving-even when they're running-and a downpour can completely mask the soft noise coming from a suppressed firearm.

Matches start out with clouds overhead, but can quickly transition into rain, fog, or both in the middle of the battle royale. The same is true for Sunset, which only lowers the sun's position to provide a slight glare when looking through a scope.

If things are sunny, they'll remain that way for the rest of the match. When dropping into Erangel or Miramar, you'll have to look to the sky to see what type of weather you're dealing with.
