PUBG Battlegrounds 18.1 Update: Upcoming Update 18.1 is now available on the PC Test Servers
The previous Patch Notes hinted some big and small changes were soon to come to the SPOTTER SCOPE. The Spotter Scope and its automatic features of marking and following enemies continue to show overly strong performance, causing more stress than enjoyable experiences to our players. Therefore, starting from this update, you shall now be able to meet the following, healthier changes:
- The enemy detection range has been changed from 1000m → 600m.
- The white passive marker will NOT appear automatically in ADS mode.
- It now requires you to HOLD the Fire key to begin scanning for enemies.
- Once a scan begins, a meter will appear on the screen and start to fill up. It will take up a second for the scan meter to fill up completely.
- Exiting ADS mode during a scan will cancel the scanning process altogether and require you to start again from the beginning.
- Once the scan meter is full, passive marker(s) will then appear on enemies within the Spotter Scope’s field of view.
- However, enemies who enter the Spotter Scope’s field of view AFTER a scan is complete will NOT be marked.
- Passive markers will also appear on enemies hiding within the smoke.
- You may initiate and complete as many scans as you’d like in ADS mode.
- A new scan can not begin while a scan is already in progress.
- When you complete a new scan, the previous set of passive markers is overwritten with a new one.
- There is no time limit to the duration of passive markers and they will continue to mark enemies even when enemies hide in smoke or foliage, but passive markers will disappear when marked enemies hide behind solid cover such as trees or buildings, or when they exit the Spotter Scope’s field of view, or if you stop using the Spotter Scope.
