PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds’ second monthly update now live

4.6
Following its announcement earlier this week, Bluehole has released its second monthly update for the early access version of battle royale shooter PlayUnknown’s Battlegrounds.

As previously detailed, the update introduces a new motorbike that can do mid-air stunts and a brand new weapon called the VSS, a suppressed sniper rifle with a permanent 4X scope that takes 9mm ammo.

The update also makes several improvements to overall performance by improving CPU usage for world level streaming, improving the rendering performance of grass, fences, weapons, and attachments, and by improving character animation performance.

Geekwad The VSS is an extremely well balanced rifle, with good damage and easy to find ammo. The reason it's balanced is because of the perma 4x scope, if you could put a 8x on this puppy and find a good 9 mil cache you're pretty much set for the game. Loving the update so far, and if anyone is considering to buy it or not, this is a must have for any PC gaming enthusiast.


it would be bad with the 8x, not nearly enough damage at that range and the bullet drop is massive and the velocity is slow

Somehow I still haven't given this a try, would like to sometime soon though.

The game seems to be using up more CPU than GPU with the new update yet again.
