PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds follow Fortnite’s approach recently, releasing a Premium Event Pass with the release of the game’s newest map, Sanhok. A lot of the community wasn’t very happy with how the event pass was set up, and the latest patch addresses several community issues and aims to make the event pass better for players. Here’s everything you need to know about PC 1.0 Update 16.
Event Pass: Sanhok
- Event Pass system’s progression mechanisms have been adjusted.
- Daily XP Limit 80 → 120
- Minimum play time required to count towards mission progress: 5 minutes → 2 minutes
- Minimum play time required to acquire XP: 5 minutes → 2.5 minutes
- Base play time XP payment is now granted in 2.5 minute intervals, instead of 5 minute intervals. Previously, 2 XP was granted every 5 minutes, now 1 XP is granted every 2.5 minutes.
- For Duo or Squad games, mission progress is updated when your team wins the game, or when your whole team is eliminated.
- ‘Reach top 3 without killing anyone in Solos’ mission requirements have been changed. The mission now requires reaching top 3 with 2 kills or less.
Crates
- Aviator Crate is now included in the Random Crates, and the overall chance of acquiring each crate has been changed as follows:
| Crate | Aviator | Equinox | Triumph | Raider | Fever | Militia | Biker | Desperado | Survivor | Wanderer |
| Ratio | 20% | 15% | 10% | 15% | 2.5% | 15% | 10% | 2.5% | 5% | 5% |
Sound
- The volume of footsteps has been slightly increased.
Performance
- Optimized memory encryption mechanism to decrease lag.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where walking on thatched roofs on houses in Sanhok did not produce footsteps.
- Fixed an issue where even under correct zeroing settings, the ADS aim point and actual bullet trajectory were slightly misaligned.
- This issue was most noticeable with the QBZ and crossbow
