PUBG Update Acts to Prevent Crouch-Jumping, Fix Bugs & More

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has deployed a new update to the Test Servers. This marks the 26th weekly patch. If everything is stable, the update will then hit Live Servers for all players to experience. 

One of the most significant changes included in this update is the disabling of multiple actions being bound to one key. This means that crouch-jumping will be a lot more difficult to pull off. Players who have been using this technique to easily evacuate buildings and surprise an enemy with a cheeky flank, will face a bigger challenge. 

UI/UX

Added the following feature to the Map Help section on the World Map: Marking your character’s current position (Default key set to Insert)

Other

You may no longer modify ini files to set a key bind for multiple actions on the same key

Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug that enabled angled foregrip to attach to Tommy Gun
Fixed a graphic bug regarding building locations
Fixed an animation bug that appeared when a character used healing or boosting items in the driver’s seat
Fixed a bug that did not cancel a player’s reload if the character was knocked out during the reload
Fixed a bug where an uncooked grenade could explode if a character was knocked out while holding it
Fixed a graphic bug that would cause a black box texture to appear while scoped when Anti-Aliasing was set to Low or Very Low in the Settings

Are you happy with the changes? Is crouch-jumping a valid tactic? Or is it good that Bluehole is making moves against it?
