PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds v10.2 is now online and it brings new vehicle emotes, improvements to ranked mode, a new Coupe to drive, and a lot more. With PUBG Season 10 well on its way, this is not a big update, but one that is outlined to provide players several new features and support a few of the game’s eSports initiatives.
Possibly the first thing that players will notice in the new patch is the new Coupe RB – a fast two-person vehicle. It can reach speeds of up to 150 kilometers per hour, and while it can’t fit a full team of four, it does provide more protection compared to a bike. Players can find the new vehicle in the Sanhok, Miramar, and Erangel maps, but not on the new urban map Haven, which was added when PUBG Season 10 was launched last month.
Another vehicle-associated improvement in the update is the new Vehicle Emotes, which allow players to use emotes while in the air while using Motorbikes. PUBG update v10.2 came to test networks several weeks ago and included the Reputation System.
The aforementioned system is being installed to designate whether or not players are well-behaved or toxic toward each other. A reputation level will be shown next to a team member’s name ranging from zero to five. A low-level reputation indicates the player was reported for bad gameplay, team killing, being rude, and a lot more.
In a struggle to support eSports, the update also includes a few exciting ways to watch PUBG’s PGIs event. In-game screens will show live-streamed portions of the event. In addition, there will be an eSports tab from the main menu to watch the PGIs.
However, this feature is for PC players only, so for those who play PUBG on consoles or mobile, they will have to watch the PUBG Global Invitationals elsewhere.
