The invasion of aliens continues, they are expanding their presence by any means and changing the situation on the map. Each new patch arouses genuine interest from players, and this is not surprising. After all, even the smallest changes affect the gameplay and the outcome of the Battle Royale.
Battle Royale Updates v17.20
Epic Games has tweaked a large number of Battle Royale inconsistencies in version 17.20:
- Ziplines are back in the game;
- Grimey's equipment can be updated again;
- Merchant rifts can be used again;
- Fixed errors in the menu when pressing a combination of buttons.
In the long-awaited patch, the wardrobe has been updated and a yellow robot from the streamer called Gildedguy has appeared. There is also a series of skins that can be changed with wraps and new graffiti.
Priority slots for items
In Battle Royale, a new parameter has been announced - priority slots for items. Now it will be much easier for players to deal with their arsenal and consumables. To use a new option, go to the items menu, click on the "Play" button and check the convenience of quick sorting out. By default, the first slot contains an automatic rifle, the second contains a shotgun. The third and fourth slots are not occupied, and the fifth position is assigned to consumables.
With the start of the v17.20 update, each character can change the order of fixing items, taking into account their own preferences. To change the tab of the slots, you need to click on the "Configure" button and indicate which weapon will be here. The priority slot will be filled according to the setting and supported by the programmed key.
When filling the slots with rarer items in priority, epic weapons will always automatically replace rare or unusual ones. Auto-placement of consumables remains active and works together with priority filling of slots.
