PUBG - Update 27: ► BIG SNIPER DAMAGE INCREASE (Exact Bullets-to-kill Chart)

[@PrimalBanana1757]

I always felt the sniper rifles should be more powerful tbh so this is an awesome update. It's looking like an all round decent patch tbh.

[@KignofDiggins]

Man, this is great news, nice breakdown! And your pacing/audio quality is great, hope for many views!

[@Spoontamer4]

BTW Win94 was also buffed

[@divine_swine9665]

CRIPPLINGDEPPRESION right!? Where’s the Winchester love? If anything, that weapon should have the AWM stat line. I hate the AWM moves, everything else is fine. They just lowered the skill gap is all. No need for headshots anymore with the AWM.

[@LiquidBlitzGuides]

Ok - the Winchester is a 1 shot kill to the upper chest against no armor up to 373m. Level 1 + 2 armor = 2 hit kill. Level 3 armor = 3 hit kill :)

[@Spoontamer4]

@@LiquidBlitzGuides I know that :D battlegroundsparty.com right?

[@Nils3OWN]

As much as I love snipers, the AWM now seems somewhat overpowered. Most people aren't going to have a mil vest and dying to someone who doesn't need to take their time to aim or lead super well feels bad. I'm usually the one wielding the snipers though so it may affect other people even more.

[@MrCheap166]

I always felt like the AWM was kind of useless before, because you could play the kar98 or the M24 as well and have more bullets. I think they did great with this update.

[@tinleo333]

Finally pubg!

[@september9024]

Nice, Im glad they get a buff, as you say the fact you land a hit with a bolt action early on and cant kill some one sucks because you will get shot before you reload most of the time

[@Chris-in-ky-ky4ckp]

Pretty massive changes!

[@motoguzzigriso]

I just found your content and I love it! I too really like to dig into the statistics. I sure would like to see a breakdown of the DMR’s. I read that the SLR is better than the SKS, but I find that I do better with the SKS by far! What’s up with that? There is something in the stats I’m missing. Only you can break it down for us! I hope you can find the time to create a comparison.

[@LiquidBlitzGuides]

Glad you like it :) with DMR's damage climbs with recoil. Mini 14 > SKS > SLR > Mk14 - so while the damage is slightly higher with the SLR than the SKS, the SKS is more accurate while tapping away. Especially with the extra grip slot. (Light grip is best for the SKS, Vertical grip is close 2nd).

[@vahidkian4846]

AWM was a gun of god in the game but now its the god himself ... thats insane !

[@TommmoM]

I'm actually not mad about these changes. The bolt actions shouldn't be too powerful to the body, their power lies in the ability to one shot anyone without a lvl 3 helmet - and if you're not hitting the headshots then they shouldn't be that great. Risk/reward.

[@maciejbro80]

Very good update, now need upgraded melee

[@caprise-music6722]

Awesome! Sniper rifles should be powerful

[@Spoontamer4]

Hey man it's Jynxerzz :D Just wanna say my opinion on this. It should be 130% tbh

[@alienve.r]

Wasn't the AWM 1-hit kill to 1 level armor, body shot ?

[@SVTBansheeman]

I liked it the way it was. Now the awm is an awp. Welcome back to pubg though.

[@chidlechopes]

About timeeeee

[@SlavKnife]

Do more pubg please!

They have broken the game with constant puffing everything. What they should have done from the start is: 1) Lower the recoil on pistols and increase the damage 2) Narrow the shotguns spread for longer distances, a chest size grouping from a 50 meters is realistic. 3) Increase the AR recoil, forcing it be uncontrollable for longer than 5-10 meters, requiring to use single fire mode longer ranges, and that with a good pacing between shots. And add heavy swing and lag when swaying AR around with fast camera movements etc. So AR is not close-combat weapon like SMG are. 4) Require player to at least kneel or crawl to get any weapon stabilized for a longer than 50 meter shooting for good first shot accuracy and continuous firing. If wanted to stay standing, require at least one second stationary time without much mouse movement and use stamina to stabilize the weapon sway for a second. So two seconds to get first hit being accurate. 5) Balance the firefight by increasing hit punch effect. If you get hit, you drop ADS, your camera can get thrown 30-45 degree off from the previous point before getting hit. That makes sure that regardless the amount of damage, you do not want to get hit as your capability return fire is extremely limited when receiving fire. 6) When firing, narrow the field of view by adding even more blurring around vision for a moment. 7) When bullets hits near you, add a slight blurring to the nearby players (like 1-2 meter from the point of impact) to increase the stress level and suppression effect. That is required to be done for gameplay reasons. 8) Make the peaking accuracy very low, bullet trajectory should change to the peaking direction further, so you can't land headshots so easily. Increase the sway as you are not in correct stance to shoot accurately. It should be only available for pistols and SMG and not for AR or larger. 9) Make the DMR and bolt rifles have more lag, more sway and require longer period to stabilize the weapon on screen. So the crosshair will move a lot more around the screen when moving camera. A sniper should be stationary, dedicated for the single shot. And not able perform well in close combat or fast situations, where pistol or SMG would be far more preferred weapon as you can be agile and quick shooter, something that AR or DMR wouldn't provide.

[@oryon6662]

Fri13 basically makeing the ar and snipers useless

[@TheFri13]

@@oryon6662 No. As AR would still be the best compromise when you need to use weapon in all situations, like in reality. And no other gun has possibility to engage long range targets and take them off with a single shot like SR can.

[@nyannaaung2544]

I'm not a fan of the update. It reduces the skill trashold required to use a sniper. It's like ruining an artform. Players who dedicated time in landing accurate headshots no longer have the advantage, as some guy could take you out with one body shot.

[@absaeed7870]

You'll still have the advantage if wearing a vest and aiming at the head while they aim at the body

[@hansselaj7234]

Update !!!

[@grahamdelacey5779]

now all they need to do is, - put up servers for any players of any regions with pings over 150ms (any pings under 150ms play on open servers) this will solve the chinese/asian problem the entire player base is having ! - stop banning cheaters where they just get a new account, put them in a set of servers where only cheaters go, massive queuing/wait times (as there will be F all servers put aside for them) this will solve players leaving due too excessive cheating - BRING BACK THE GOD DAMN OCE SERVERS ! we paid for this game too remeber c#nts ! - remove all costumes/cosmetics from behind paywalls, only able too earn them through game play, no trading for real money or anything of real life value (eg a skin costing more then the game itself is a f#cking joke mate) - add more too older maps before bringing out new ones, the base content needs too be more balanced, game modes need too be added for certain maps that do not fit normal game play (eg smaller maps need snipers removed completely, only AR/SMG and the likes, bigger maps need less shotguns and pistols with extra AR/SR added etc etc) remove flare guns and all that BS from normal game play, have them as game modes on maps made for that style of play. all this can be done pretty much over night ! if they did even half of this, the player base would go back too 1.5m + daily.

[@divine_swine9665]

I like the changes except for the AWM OSK to the chest, no matter what. They just lowered the skill gap so plebs can get OSK’s. What’s the point in going for headshots now? This is a pathetic attempt to bring people back to the game. Everything else in this update the community has been asking for

[@hernanicarneiro3799]

1st... yeay
