Dev Letter: BP Ecosystem Improvement

Dev Letter: BP Ecosystem Improvement Hello Players! I’m Jeongjin Kook, part of the PUBG development team working on the BP ecosystem. Today, I wanted to take a little time to discuss BP and our upcoming plans for it. As many of you know, players are rewarded at the end of each match with a certain amount of BP, or Battlegrounds Points. BP is the default currency of PUBG and can be used to purchase crates or limited release items in the in-game store. As our game grew and we focused on content and fixing fundamental issues, the amount of BP in the economy grew, as we weren’t regularly adding new ways for our players to spend it. We understand that BP is an important currency in PUBG, as it represents the time you’ve invested into our game, so we’ve been thinking of new ways to reward you for that time spent. Today, we would like to share our upcoming plans for BP and some of the upcoming items you’ll be able to purchase with it. How to obtain BP “BP = Reward for playtime + kills + damag...

PUBG’s first class of progression called Weapon Mastery was unveiled just a couple of months ago by our Mastery team, and we’re excited to finally bring this new system to Xbox and PS4 with our June 27th content update! Today, we’ll be going over the finer details of this new progression system and what you can expect on patch day. What is Weapon Mastery? Weapon Mastery is a brand new progression feature in PUBG with unique, free rewards. Our goals for Weapon Mastery are simple: give players an avenue for improving their weapon skills and celebrate the journey along the way. After Weapon Mastery goes live, you’ll notice every weapon now has a series of levels that players can progress through by dealing damage and defeating opponents. It’s important to note however that both strategy and precision also have an influence on how quickly you level up your weapons. Weapon Mastery aims to encourage healthy play in PUBG where both weapon skill and the effort to be the last man...
