Structured by Nerf Radar from the official notes (parsed automatically and reviewed by hand). Official pubg.com patch notes as fetched. Only bug fixes, new weapons and items, and balance numbers under Gunplay, Rebalance, Vehicles and spawn headings are tracked, and lines whose stat or weapon the parser cannot read cleanly are held. Modes, events, cosmetics, ranked rewards, UI features and designer commentary are not tracked. PUBG shows only a date on each post, so the time of day is set to noon UTC.
