The flight height of helicopters has been reduced, the sound effects have been adjusted, and the refresh probability of pickup trucks and small cars has been increased.

The return of the joint set of rash, mozi and godv is about to end.
This update is expected to be maintained until 8:00-12:00 on June 28, which will last about four hours.
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds version 24.1 will be launched on June 14th, Beijing time. The new version's tactical equipment will be updated, and the Vikendi map will be partially adjusted and a competitive map will be added.
tactical equipment
From now on, all players will have a Tactical Equipment Box in their inventory at the start of a match. In order to ensure that the tactical equipment box does not burden the early game play after parachuting, its weight is set to 0.
After opening the tactical equipment box, players can choose the tactical equipment they want from all tactical equipment. Tactical equipment includes: emergency treatment equipment, tactical backpacks, observation scopes, drones, blue chip detectors, and maintenance kits.
The tactical equipment selected by the player will be equipped in Weapon Column No. 6 – the dedicated column for tactical equipment. Once equipped, tactical equipment cannot be removed. When a player is eliminated, the tactical equipment and tactical equipment boxes held by him will not be dropped, but will disappear from the inventory. After being eliminated, even if the player is resurrected or returns to the battlefield through a resurrection match, he will not receive new tactical equipment boxes.
Emergency treatment equipment
In order to emphasize the role of emergency treatment equipment in treating teammates, we changed the healing function of emergency treatment equipment to only be used on teammates. In addition, we found that the benefits that players can gain when using recovery items through emergency equipment are somewhat too great. To this end, we have made the following adjustments to the usage time of recovery items.
Medical Kit: 3 seconds → 7 seconds
First aid kit: 3 seconds → 5 seconds
In addition, we have also changed the speed of picking up teammates from 3 seconds to 8 seconds to prevent players from rescuing teammates too quickly in an emergency.
In the future, when you use energy drinks and painkillers yourself, you will get 50% additional effects.
Teammates will not gain this effect.
tactical backpack
Number of accessory columns: 4 → 2
We want to give the tactical backpack as much of a "level 4 backpack" function as possible. To this end, we will reduce the number of slots in the tactical backpack to prevent players from carrying too many individual items (weapons, etc.) other than stackable items.
Observing scope
We've modified the spotting scope to make it more intuitive to use and shorten the time it takes to use it.
The magnification of the observation scope has been changed from a fixed 4x to a variable magnification of 4~8x. In the future, players can use it for more detailed observations.
The white passive marker generation phase of the spotting scope has been removed. In the future, after the detection is completed, players do not need to perform additional operations, and the observation scope will automatically generate a red active mark. Active marking will last for 7 seconds.
While using the scope, players can also use the regular screen marking functionality.
drone
Maximum radius: 300 meters → 200 meters
blue chip detector
According to our observation, the original performance of the blue chip detector is a bit too powerful. In order to maintain the balance between it and other tactical equipment, we have made the following adjustments to it.
Screen refresh cycle: 5 seconds → 8 seconds
Enemy detection radius: 100 meters → 50 meters
Blue chip detectors cannot detect players equipped with radio interference backpacks.
Props
Tactical Equipment – Repair Kits
Previous vehicle repair kits, helmet repair kits, and body armor repair kits can only be used under specific circumstances. In order to improve the versatility of the repair kit, we have merged these items and integrated them into an all-in-one repair kit that can repair vehicles, helmets and body armor. How about it, should you consider changing your job to a maintenance worker in the future and use your almighty hands to solve problems for the team?
※ This change will only be applied to normal matches, fierce battle modes and custom matches (normal matches, fierce battle modes).
The positioning of the repair kit has been changed to tactical equipment and is no longer a consumable item that can be used in the inventory. Players need to equip it to the tactical equipment weapon slot before they can use it.
Once equipped, players cannot change or remove tactical equipment until the end of the match.
The repair kit can be used 10 times.
Players can use repair kits through the "Specific Interaction" button.
When a repair kit is used on a helmet or body armor once, it will restore the durability to 100 within 6 seconds.
The repair kit can not only repair the helmet and body armor currently equipped by the player, but also repair the helmets and body armor equipped by teammates or the helmets and body armor on the ground.
When a repair kit is used on a vehicle, it will restore 500 durability to the vehicle within 8 seconds.
Repair kits can only repair interactive vehicles.
Repairs will be canceled under the following circumstances:
The character performing the repair or the object being repaired presses the movement key to move.
The previous person who repaired the same helmet, body armor, and vehicle completed the repair
Helmets and body armor on the ground were picked up by other players during the repair process, causing the repair objects to disappear.
New feature: Removing and installing tires
When equipping the repair kit, players can remove the tires mounted on interactive vehicles through the "Specific Interaction" button.
Tires with a durability of 0 (exploded) cannot be removed.
When approaching a vehicle to interact, the tire's remaining health will be displayed on the screen.
Removing the tire takes some time.
Once the tire is successfully removed, it will fall to the ground and can be picked up by the player.
The tire weight is 20.
The tire will be equipped in the melee weapon slot No. 4.
If slot 4 is occupied, the tire will go into the inventory.
When switching to the weapon in slot 4, the player will hold the tire in his hand.
Tires cannot be removed or installed on amphibious armored vehicles, water vehicles (speedboats, motorboats), mountain bikes, powered gliders, airboats, and snowmobiles.
No repair kit is required to install the tires, and anyone can install the removed tires onto the vehicle.
After approaching and interacting with a vehicle whose tires have been removed, the player will spend a certain amount of time to install the tires.
Installation and removal will be canceled under the following circumstances:
During the installation process, the vehicle begins to operate
The position of the vehicle changes due to collisions and other reasons during the installation process.
During the process of removing a tire, other tires of the vehicle were damaged.
The original vehicle repair kit, helmet repair kit and body armor repair kit have been removed.
Emergency caller, blue ring grenade, radio interference backpack, mortar, Iron Fist rocket launcher
In the future, these props will be refreshed in all 8x8 kilometer maps.
This change will apply to normal matches, competitive matches, custom matches, and custom matches – Esports mode.
Scene – Vikendi
We have continued to pay attention to players' opinions after the previous "Vikendi: Rebirth" update. After evaluating your feedback, we have finally decided to make the following updates to the map.
terrain
Based on Vikendi's game indicator data, we focused on making adjustments to areas with the highest elimination rate (except big cities) where players find it difficult to fight enemies and areas with insufficient cover, and added additional cover and ridges. , providing players with an environment that makes it easier to display strategic gameplay.
stage
Starting from the 1st update of Season 23, we have introduced blue circle rules in normal matches similar to those in competitive matches. In this update, we have also applied this rule to Vikendi to shorten the overall game time.
Props refresh
Compared with other maps, there are many prop refresh points in various special locations in Vikendi, and the frequency of obtaining high-value props will be higher. In order to prevent players from obtaining too many high-value props, we believe it is necessary to make a round of balance adjustments to the overall refresh of special props. To this end, we plan to reduce the refresh rate of supply box weapons and high-value props, and narrow the gap in game experience between ordinary matches and competitive matches.
Lab Camp
Lucky Treasure in Lab Camp – The probability of supply airdrops has been increased.
However, the quality of props in supply airdrops has been slightly reduced.
The appearance probability of weapons and level 3 equipment in supply boxes has been greatly reduced.
In the future, emergency rescue kits will only appear in Lab Camp, and the refresh rate has been improved.
cave
The quantity and quality of items in the supply airdrops in the cave have been reduced.
The appearance probability of weapons and level 3 equipment in supply boxes has been greatly reduced.
From now on, the 8x scope, emergency rescue kit, and C4 will no longer appear in the supply airdrops in the cave.
secret room
Access to self-rescuing defibrillators has been adjusted. In the future, except for the low probability of being refreshed in the map, this prop can only be obtained from the secret room.
From now on, the thermal imaging 4x scope will only be refreshed in the map, supply boxes and airdrop supplies in the cave, and will no longer appear in Lab Camp and secret rooms.
Taking into account the unification of rules between ordinary games and competitive games, we have also made the following adjustments to Vikendi to reduce the difference in tendencies between it and other maps.
The refresh amount of assault rifles, submachine guns, pistols, crossbows, grenades, smoke grenades, flash bombs, and first aid kits has been slightly increased.
The refresh amount of sniper rifles, light machine guns, backpacks (level 1), incendiary bombs, blue ring grenades, C4, emergency rescue equipment, bandages, medical kits, and epinephrine syringes has been slightly reduced.
Vehicle refresh
Upon confirmation, we found that vehicle usage in Vikendi is low compared to other maps. Therefore, we have made an overall addition to the vehicle refresh point, and changed the original refresh position based on this change.
snowstorm zone
The duration of the snowstorm zone has been increased by approximately 70%.
The number of blizzards generated in the blizzard area has been increased.
The intervals between snowstorms are shortened.
The timing of snowstorm zone creation during matches has been adjusted.
cable car
Cable car movement speed increased by 80%.
From the feedback received, it seems that the slow moving speed of the cable car will make it inconvenient for players to use. To this end, we have increased the speed of the cable car so that players can have a better combat experience while using the cable car.
Easter match
map
The position of the original object was moved backward to block the refreshed player's field of view.
A prop refresh point has been added near the player refresh point, so that players can immediately find the location where they can pick up props as soon as they are refreshed.
The position of some containers has been modified and wooden planks have been added to make it easier for players to climb onto the containers.
battle time
Combat time has been shortened from 160 seconds to 100 seconds.
As the battle time is shortened, the point at which the Easter area begins to shrink has also been adjusted.
The delivery time of multiple supplies has been adjusted so that it will be delivered to the battlefield earlier in the future.
In order to optimize the phenomenon that the increase in the number of contestants leads to a decrease in the survival rate of subsequent rounds of rematch, we have adjusted the final safety zone size of each round of rematch.
The prompt UI related to the Easter match has been optimized.
Crowbar interactive function
Locker refresh rates have been improved.
A crowbar safe has been added to the garage house that can be entered with a crowbar. There is a high probability that a crowbar will be refreshed in the crowbar safe.
The appearance probability of secret room security door keys has been slightly reduced.
However, the appearance probability of conventional props such as recovery props and throwing weapons has been increased.
Sound effects
Reduced the sound propagation distance of wind turbines and reduced the overall volume by 40%.
mini map
We have also made corresponding optimizations to the minimap based on the above updates.
The WackyJacky co-branded skin mall is officially launched, including male and female character sets.
Male character appearance:
Female character appearance:
Secondly, there are weapon skins:
The linkage weapon skins this time are mainly ak47, min14 and pan.
Finally, there are backpack-linked skins. The specific backpack-linked skins are as shown below:
Brand new scene

Moreover, Tyrannosaurus mounts will randomly appear in some places and can be ridden.

Brand new version moving forward
1. Improved gameplay experience

· Improvements in gameplay devices.
·Added "PUBGM forward!" object.
·Creation Simplification: You can directly connect the device through the event triggering mechanism, and explain the logical process in natural language, making the device easier to use!
Recall system:
Players can collect blue chips and insert them into the recall device on the map to recall dead teammates after 10 seconds.
However, there will be a very obvious signal, so it is very dangerous. It is recommended to use it when there are no enemies nearby.
However, the resurrected teammates do not have any equipment, and their health, energy, and other data will be reset.
If a teammate dies before they are resurrected and boarded, the team will be eliminated directly.
In addition, blue chips and recalled devices are relatively rare. The chip will occupy 5 slots of the backpack capacity, and there are some other restrictions.
It can be seen that although the teammate resurrection mechanism has finally been added to the game, the restrictions are still relatively large.
Vehicle updates:
In addition, this update also adds vehicle icons, so now we no longer have to worry about finding missing vehicles.
Now when the player gets off the car, a vehicle icon will be automatically generated on the spot to help the player find his or her car.
In order to prevent players from dying due to jumping from the car, a progress bar will appear during driving.
When the speed reaches 60km/h, if the player presses the jump button, a 3s reading bar will appear. During this period, we can cancel the jump.
Union system:
This update will also add a guild system, allowing players to invite friends to join their guild.
There are currently no rewards or task activities in the guild system, just to facilitate communication with friends, but more content may be released in the future.
