Remember when Bluehole said that the vaulting update for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, first announced at E3 2017 and the initial step to the 1.0 release, would be on test servers this week? That’s not happening, unfortunately.
The update is pretty significant because along with vaulting, it changes character movement and numerous other features. Since the development team has been dealing with a major issue regarding the update, it won’t be out this week.
In a series of tweets, Bluehole said that it’s crucial that the test servers work in a stable environment since they’ll be up for a while. To allow for smoother testing of the new features and content, the developer decided to delay the upcoming update. As for when it will actually go live, there’s no information.
This isn’t the first time a major update for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has been delayed but you have to wonder if the vaulting update will go live without causing major problems. We’ll find out in the coming weeks.
When the test servers are deployed, we will be running them for a long time and it's crucial that they operate in a stable environment.

Therefore we feel that we have to delay the first test schedule for PC 1.0 to allow for a smooth testing of the new features and content.
