PUBG 1.0 Update:
As many of you know, the full version of PUBG recently went live on Xbox. Some of you may have gotten to try out the new features, but others have not. So, I'm going to give those people a little bit of a layout of the new features.
First and foremost, let's discuss the new map, Sanhok. This map is alot smaller than the traditional PUBG map, being a 4x4 map. This creates a way more intense game by not only forcing you to drop where there will always be someone else, but also by increasing the loot spawn where you're going to find at least one good weapon in every compound. The blue wall also has been changed to suit the smaller map by reducing the time between moving circles, and by making the wall move slower. So if you decide to land on the coast, and the safe zone is on the complete opposite side, you will have time to loot your compound and outrun the wall.
Next I want to talk about the new weapons added. The QBZ, and the QBU are both 5.56 weapons that are currently only on Sanhok. The QBZ is an AR that can completely demolish anyone in your path as long as you have the appropriate attachments. You definitely have to go for a quickdraw mag over an extended mag with this gun since it has a slower reload, a half grip will work perfectly to control the recoil, and of course a compensator to be a little mean to your enemies. The QBU is a DMR that replaces the Mini14 on Sanhok. Best used with a compensator, extended mag, your choice of sight, and by going prone to use the built in tripod that only thing gun has. If used this way the QBU is a very powerful weapon that should be feared. If used standing, the recoil might make you miss a key shot or two, so choose your shot wisely.
Finally this brings us to the new vehicle. It's a smaller truck, that has amazing handing and seems to be the only reliable vehicle on Sanhok right now. You can have this truck going it's max speed, and still control of it on any terrain.
There you have it everyone! Hope all of you enjoyed it, and I'll see you next time!
