KRAFTON had released the 1.6 update to PUBG Mobile last month and they didn’t disappoint us at all. It has just been one month and the 1.7 update is about to release around the 13th of November, 2021 and the developers have outdone themselves once again. Let us get into the patch notes for the PUBG Mobile 1.7 version (BETA) and talk about some of the anticipated features.
PUBG Mobile 1.7 update: New features
Carry function
Now when a teammate or enemy is knocked out, there’s another option now other than eliminating and reviving them! You can now carry knocked-out players and take them to a different location. But the catch is moving while carrying is slow, and you can’t fire any weapons, pick up supplies or enter vehicles. The player who is being carried will have no control over where to go or where to be put down.
Firearm balancing
Marksman rifles have now been rebalanced, along with reduced damage at long distances, increased bullet speed, and increased recovery speed. The other changes are reduced bullet speed, reduced damage at long range, reduced headshot damage. 7.6mm rounds have received weight reduction. Single round weight has reduced from 0.7 to 0.6.
The following guns have received some slight changes as well:
- SLR: Increased recovery speed, increased bullet speed
- SKS: Slightly increased recovery speed, increased bullet speed
- Mini14: Increased damage at long distance
- VSS: Slightly increased the weapon’s damage
- DP28: rebalanced
