Krafton is pretty busy with many new projects, such as PUBG New State and Battlegrounds Mobile India. But they don't forget to update new content to PUBG. K2 seems to be the new gun in the upcoming map Taego in PUBG.

New Gun K2 And New Map Taego In PUBG

The new map Taego and new gun K2 -  a legendary gun from South Korea are expected to come to PUBG in early July. In specific, the new map Taego in PUBG will arrive on the PC platform on July 7th and console on July 15th. Here are all the leaks about these two contents.

#1. PUBG New Map Named Taego

PUBG has leaked many codes related to this new map, such as Tiger and Kiki. Finally, Krafton decided to name it Taego. It's quite similar to Erangel. This new map also comprises a big island and a smaller one. Moreover, Taego will be an 8x8 map like Erangel and Miramar.

Moreover, Taego also comes along with a Respawn Royale mechanism like in Respawn Royale mode in LABS. The evidence is the appearance of LABS in the center of the map. It will bring a big change to the gameplay of this battle royale game when players will respawn unlimitedly until the whole team is cleared. Players will respawn after 100 seconds as on as at least one teammate still stays alive.

Then, each match will last longer because players have more chances to flee away and survive until their teammates respawn. Besides, the number of survivors in final circles also increases. It makes final combat more fierce and intense.

#2. New Weapon Daewoo K2

This new map is inspired by South Korea. Besides, it will have an exclusive weapon called Daewoo K2. In the trailer video, this new weapon appears in a corner of the second poster. The new gun K2 in PUBG has a longer barrel than all existing ARs in this game. It makes us think of K2 - an iconic weapon in South Korea.

Daewoo K2 rooted in South Korea in the 1970s. This AR uses 5.56mm ammo, so its damage may range from 40 to 42. Besides, it has three firing modes, including single, burst, and full-auto. Besides, the real version of Daewoo K2 supports many attachments like other ARs, such as scope, foregrip, mag, and muzzle.

In addition, the initial bullet velocity of this new gun reaches 920m/s. Besides, the maximum effective range of fire is 600 meters. Therefore, you can use this AR as a DMR. In close combat, it's also very powerful with a very high rate of fire which reaches 700 - 900 rounds per minute. In addition, it holds 30 - 40 bullets per load.

K2 will be introduced in PUBG PC on July 7th in the new map Taego. Just wait to experience it and compare this new gun with its real version and other 5.56 ARs in PUBG.

Needless to say, PUBG is one of the most well-known BR games out there, for good reason and for both PC and console. The combo of decent graphics, easy-to-grasp controls, and realistic battlefields makes PUBG an epitome of success.

Since the 7.2 update, it looks as if PUBG has been welcoming more and more bots, leaving a large number of fans wondering why the game has bots. Even, PUBG brought bots in public matches on PS4 and Xbox One. Today, Gurugamer.com is going to dig into the PUBG bots Xbox.

1. Why PUBG bots Xbox?

It’s important to highlight that bot lobbies have been particularly prevalent in PUBG Mobile. Since it’s more challenging for PUBG Mobile gamers to play the game as fluidly as PC and console ones, the appearance of bots will entice new players to keep enjoying the mobile version. However, it’s not the case in consoles. So, why now we have PUBG bots Xbox One?

As many of you know, PUBG did announce the arrival of bots in the 7.2 update. According to Brian Corrigan, PUBG Studio Director, PUBG wanted to give players more chances to hone their skills and fully enjoy all the game had to offer.

“Bots are a foundational feature required in order to provide a better on-ramp for new players and to provide differentiation for the upcoming Competitive Mode. We’ll be providing ways to play with, or without bots, and we hope that both of these play experiences can continue to evolve to provide a uniquely PUBG experience to everyone in the community.”

In spite of this explanation, PUBG fans are still irate at the bots which have been invading the lobbies. Even, some say that they would not play the game till the bots are eliminated from Xbox and other consoles.

2. PUBG bots Xbox: Who is the culprit?

Earlier this year, Google Stadia added PUBG to their game streaming service. It is coincidental that this event came almost the exact time when PUBG disclosed the advent of the bots, spreading a rumor saying that the sin could be the Stadia.

3. How to identify PUBG bots Xbox?

This is as easy as pie to identifying bots in PUBG on your Xbox though they have almost identical names to real players’ which use random characters and numbers. In the game, the PUBG bots Xbox One teleport themselves into a random location instead of parachuting into the match. Also, they sometimes pop up from nowhere during the battlefield.

The bots own a superhuman sense of hearing. That is to say, they are capable of immediately spot the direction real players are shooting on and instinctively start firing at them.

Bots in PUBG will not ever enter the places players are hiding in, yet they will circle it. They want to kill the players, but will not loot their items.

What’s more, is that the movements of PUBG bots Xbox are easily predictable. No erratic crouching or running, no hiding during the match. Bots will go straight into the bullets as if they’re the immortals.

4. How good are the PUBG bots Xbox?

Not very good. It’s obvious that the AI is not advanced and in fact, there are currently more and more bots in Xbox One than real players in any lobby. Thence, you can encounter them anytime and anywhere. PUBG bots Xbox One are not able to peek, dip into cover, or throw grenades. This, to be frank, makes battles with them more of a bother than fun.

5. PUBG bots Xbox: The Future

There is an understanding that bots are always available in PUBG Mobile (and PUBG Mobile Lite) and this works for these versions. Nonetheless, for consoles, on Xbox to be specific, it appears that the game developers have no intention of eliminating them from lobbies, implying nowhere is safe from the bot invasion in the PUBG world now.

In the latest 7.1 Update of PUBG, the developers of PUBG Corp. have decreased bot population in this game. It’s an action to respond to the negative sentiment from the community about the recent super high number of bots. Check out this news here with Gurugamer.com.

PUBG Corp. Cut Down Bot Population

Recently, PUBG increased the number of bots in console and Stadia platforms to make the game easier for beginners. However, it drove the players crazy when they met too many bots instead of real players. They said it destroyed their experience in this shooting game.

To respond to that backlash of fans, PUBG Corp. decreased the number of bots in the latest update 7.1. The update has come on Tuesday, April 28^th, 2020. The devs of PUBG Corp. has announced in a post on Reddit that they declined the bot population for the top 75% of PUBG players. The rest 25% of players who are beginners in this game still experience a high bot population to make them enjoy the game. If these lower-skilled players are matched with pro players, they cannot experience much.

This action of PUBG Corp. proved that the devs are listening to fans’ feedback seriously. The game publisher is trying their best and investing a lot to make the game most enjoyable for players. The devs are getting feedbacks from players and improving the game every day. They are attempting to bring PUBG to the crown position in the battle royale game genre as it was three years ago.

However, many players commented on Reddit that they wanted PUBG devs to remove bots completely. They also noted that they see no real change. But keep in mind that the number of bots only declines during peak hours when the number of real players is high.
