PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds developer PUBG Corp. has been tinkering around with the PC version of the chicken-loving shooter again, with update 14 now available to grab.

This latest patch focuses largely on stuff you can lob at people, so that's grenades, molotov cocktails, and stun grenades. Chiefly, regular grenades have been given a boost in terms of damage and range, molotovs now have a larger area of effect (apparently they were among the least popular items in PUBG), and stun grenades feature new animations and a meatier blast radius.

On the flip side, the M24 has been nerfed slightly in terms of damage and can now be found in the world instead of being dropped in a care package.

Elsewhere, PUBG Corp's brought its boot down on a wealth of bugs, including fixing collision issues in Erangel and Miramar, removing a bug where players could move through objects on Miramar, as well as making improvements to the network code to cut back on network latency.

PUBG is now holding a final test run for the new Sanhok map, which is available until June 4. It's also confirmed how it plans to improve the game going forward.
