NEW FEATURE: DBNO SWIMMING

To improve the survivability of players inside water, we are now supporting DBNO Swimming. Previously a player who enters DBNO while in the water would skip DBNO and instantly die. This made any deep water a hazardous area to traverse. Now a player will instead enter Swimming DBNO, a slow swimming state which gives the player a chance to reach the shore and be revived by teammates. Hopefully, you’ll feel more confident next time you get into a Boat or swim across that river!

DBNO Players can swim for at half of the normal speed.
The air a player has in their lungs is not reset when entering DBNO, so a player who was drowning will continue to drown in DBNO.
In DBNO a player is constantly losing HP. combined with drowning HP loss this means that a DBNO player will die within 10 seconds underwater.
Reviving underwater is impossible, and any ongoing revive is canceled when either player goes underwater or moves around too much.
It is possible to revive a swimming DBNO player while floating on the water.

PUBG Patch Notes 14.2 update :WORLD

We are proud to introduce the Chicken, a new creature that will hopefully amuse many players during fierce combats in Taego! “Chicken? Why the heck?” you might wonder. The answer to this question is left to your imaginations.

Three different conditions apply:
- Calm
  - This is the default state and, at the same time, the most stable emotional state. Calm as a monk, and nothing special.
- Fear
  - The Chickens fly, not, run for their lives in the following situations.
    - When hearing
      - Punching
      - Footsteps (except prone sound)
      - Gunshots
      - Engine and exhaust sounds
      - Other creatures die
- Death
  - Sadly, there’s an end to everything. Taego’s amuser also passes away once hit. They take damages from guns and grenades, then turn into fried chicken upon death. Sorry, a bad joke, they go to where we all go.

CUSTOM MATCH

Five new Taego areas have been added to the Team Deathmatch preset in Custom Matches.

Palace
Field
Market
