PUBG Update 1.80 Patch Notes

NEW WEAPON: P90

In this update, we are adding the fan-favorite P90 SMG to Care Packages. The P90 is our first Care Package SMG since the original Tommy Gun, and as such, we made sure it is a worthy addition. It comes loaded with its own unique 5.7mm High Powered ammo, which is capable of longer-range combat, unlike our other SMGs. It also comes with a Cheek Pad, Handguard, Laser, and Silencer pre-attached and non-detachable.

It also features dual optics that allow for fast switching between close-range and medium-range combat. Use the Holographic Sight for nearby foes and Flip on the Flipsight for added magnification when they make a run for it.
It comes paired with 250 rounds of 5.7mm ammo in the Care Package.

A single magazine holds up to 50 rounds which you (and your foes) can see deplete live as you’re firing due to the magazine’s translucent design. With the translucent magazine keeping you aware of the high Rate of Fire and the Laser helping you keep track of your targets, the P90 is a solid addition to your loadout.

• Spawns on all maps
• Equipped with all attachments right out of the crate
  • Silencer
  • Laser
  • 50 round magazine
  • Non-detachable small low profile sight with some magnification
• Ammo type
  • 5.7mm
• Damage: 35
• Maximum Effective Range: Up to 300m
• Rate of Fire: 1,000 RPM

Since then it has been carrying a lot of loads based on its solid basics and excellent durability. It is the only vehicle on PUBG available with the Trunk System, a new feature to be introduced below. Porter is a truck capable of carrying large loads and up to four passengers at the same time.

SOCIAL

JOIN TEAM

We have updated the Join Team feature where PUBG Friends can now join teams without invitations! The difference between this and the Team Invite feature is that this doesn’t require “accept” from the team. This significantly reduces the waiting time as players will not need to wait for the team leader and team members for match-making. 

• Join Team feature can be turned on/off from the Settings.

CPP STATUS CHECK

• If both players have Cross Platform Play enabled, joining across platforms is available.
  • Same rules apply as Team Invites.
  • Only applies for when joining with other platforms.

CUSTOM MATCH PRESETS

When creating a Custom Match, players had to reconfigure the settings every time they created a match. Now, we have added a Custom Match Preset feature that gives players the freedom to create, name, and save settings that can be loaded as presets any time when creating a new match.

• A maximum of 10 custom match presets can be saved.

WORLD

• BLACKPINK collaboration elements have been removed.
• Improved bots are spawned on Karakin.

WORLD LOADING SPEED IMPROVEMENTS

We have improved the loading speeds of maps. We will continue to monitor the situation. 

• Reduced the match waiting time by 30 seconds in the following maps.
  • Sanhok
  • Vikendi
  • Karakin 

REMODEL UPDATE

• The design of the magazine and buttstock on the M416 has been updated.
• The look of the C4 has been updated.

LYNX AMR UPDATE

Since the release of the Lynx AMR, low ammo capacity combined with the inability of players to access additional ammunition has limited the overall usefulness of the weapon. To make the Lynx AMR widely used in the battlegrounds, we have increased the ammo capacity.

• Increased ammo capacity from 5 to 10.

ESPORTS

Esports tab is added. Below updates are applied.

• Removed TEAMS
  • Added PUBGESPORTS.COM’s teams and players information.
