PUBG Update Overhauls Throwables, Incorporates Balance Changes, More
Bluehole Studios has released update #14 to the PC version of PUBG an the main focus of the patch is to overhaul throwables such as frag grenades, stun grenades, and Molotovs.
Here is a break down:
- Frag grenades: In a recent update we removed the frag grenade’s knockback effect, greatly reducing its potential impact. To restore the trusty frag’s killing power we’re buffing its effective range and its damage.
- Stun grenades: Stun grenades have never been the most popular pickups, and recent changes to frag grenade audio effects have made them feel a bit redundant. To make stun grenades more rewarding, they’ll now affect stunned players’ vision, hearing, and their ability to shoot accurately. We’re also bumping up the stun grenade’s effective radius and introducing new animations so it’s possible to tell when your grenades have stunned opponents.
- Molotovs: These have traditionally been among the least popular items in the game. To make molotovs more useful, we’re increasing their area of effect, introducing new properties that allow fire to spread along walls and wooden surfaces in houses, and imposing new debuffs on players who catch on fire.
Here is a video outlining the changes brought in by the latest update:
Vide game marketing firm ÜberStrategist has officially acquired Raleigh, North Carolina based marketing services provider VirTasktic, which was initially founded in 2011 by CEO Carolyn Crummey.
The company will be absorbed into ÜberStrategist and expand its business operations. Crummey has been named as the chief marketing officer. Additionally, Kimberly Massi, who previously served as VirTasktic’s director of client services, has been appointed to director of operations and Jessica Timms was also promoted to director of public relations services.
“VirTasktic is a passionate and highly creative expert in content and email marketing, services that many of our clients have expressed an interest in,” UberStrategist founder and president Mario R. Kroll said.
“Acquiring their staff and client roster not only bolsters our revenue but adds a tremendous depth of knowledge and operational excellence to our newly combined team.”
It will be interesting to see how the new iteration unfolds, and how the marketing will evolve, especially with video game SEO becoming a more viable component of game marketing strategies moving forward.
