[PUBG] Patch 12 Offers New Weapons, New Attachments, Map Selection, and Much More

More than 4 months after the release of 1.0, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds continues to get constant updates every week, but this time it is the biggest update that PUBG Corp has provided so far. Not only does this patch provide tweaks on the gameplay, but also provides some new content to keep the gameplay fresh.

We are now officially on the platform Tiktok! Follow our Tiktok account at @gamebrott.com to find various information and our other interesting video content.

As an opening, the game will get a new weapon, namely the SLR – a DMR type weapon like the Mini 14 which uses 7.62mm ammo and can accommodate 10 bullets in each magazine (20 if extended). The SLR is said to be a more powerful version of the SKS but has a higher recoil rate.

Several new attachments have been added to the game, from scopes to new grips.

Duckbill: A new attachment for shotguns (S1897, S12K). It reduces the vertical pellet spread but increases horizontal bullet spread
Attachable to S1897, S12K
Light Grip: It reduces recoil recovery time but increases vertical and horizontal recoil
Attachable to ARs, SMGs, DMRs (UMP9, AUG, M416, SCAR-L, SKS)
Thumb Grip: Reduces vertical recoil but increases horizontal recoil. It also increases recoil recovery time
Attachable to: ARs, SMGs, DMRs (UMP9, AUG, M416, SCAR-L, SKS)
Half Grip: It reduces vertical and horizontal recoil and also reduces recoil recovery time
Attachable to: ARs, SMGs, DMRs (UMP9, Vector, AUG, M416, SCAR-L, SKS)
Scope 3x: This scope has fixed 3x magnification with an illuminated reticle. It’s discoverable as a common world-drop item
Scope 6x: This scope has variable 3x–6x magnification. It’s discoverable as a rare world-drop item

PUBG will also get a new vehicle for the Miramar map, the Mirado. This car will be the fastest car in the Miramar map, but it is not very suitable for off-roading.

Weapons have been rebalanced to keep players from always playing with AR and abandon all other types of weapons. AR weapons will take longer to reload and master the recoil while the opposite happens to SMGs.

But the most important thing about this patch is the presence of one feature that the community is really waiting for, map selection. Now you can choose what map you really want to play without playing with RNG elements that are forced by the game when you enter matchmaking.
