3 Best Changes in PUBG Update 7.3
By Jun Kok
PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS Update 7.3 will be released to Test Servers June 10. Update 7.3 will be released to Live Servers a week later on June 17.
PUBG Update 7.3 includes changes to vehicles, an updated train system on Vikendi and a new throwable weapon. Like with other updates, new skins and items that will be available in the game store.
3 Best Changes in PUBG Update 7.3
Here are the three best changes in PUBG Update 7.3:
1. Changes to Vehicles
PUBG Corp made changes to vehicles to address player dissatisfaction. Adding to realism, when vehicles run out of HP, their engine will shut down and set on fire.
Instead of blowing up immediately, there is now a five second delay before the final explosion. This gives the player time to exit and move away from the vehicle.
Another change is the damage multiplier that has been added to most vehicles. This changes the durability of the vehicle, making them harder to explode. Depending on where they are shot, the vehicle may take 50 to 100 percent of damage.
2. C4 - A New Throwable Weapon
PUBG Corp introduced C4, a new throwable weapon with Update 7.3, will be a new explosive added to the game. It will only have a short throwing range and damage radius of 25 meters.
Although, it will be deadly enough within 15 meters to kill others. Once activated, players will have 16 seconds before it is detonated and cannot be deactivated or activated early.
Players will even be damaged behind walls or cover if they are within the radius. A wonderful weapon for populated fights and battles in buildings.
3. Parachute Follow Feature Reintroduced
Because of technical issues in Update 6.2, the parachute follow feature was removed from the game shortly after its release. With PUBG Update 7.3, players will now be able to use this feature again.
This feature will allow teammates to drop in very close locations. The follow feature will allow for better team work at the start of the game instead of accidentally dropping elsewhere. Jumping off the plane and parachuting is a skill to learn and this function will be helpful for beginners.
