PUBG Mobile is one of the hottest battle royale games of the moment. Being the last one alive out of 100 players, is not simple, but it can be done with a bit of practice. We have prepared a couple of tips that will help you get closer to the top spot.
Get accustomed to the locations
At the moment there are three maps: Erangel, Miramar and Sanhok, and a fourth one is on its way. Each map is very complex and it is very important that you familiarize yourself to it. Try to explore as many locations as possible so you can get accustomed to them.
Before the plane takes off you have plenty of time to study the map. You can choose a certain location where you want to land. If you are playing in a squad make sure that you all coordinate so you can land in the same location.
Avoid conflict
Many players forget that this is in fact a survival game. Therefore, your number of kills does not matter, and it is more important to stay alive. If you are a beginner and you are not that used to play aggressively, you better avoid getting killed.
This means that it is very important to focus on your surroundings. Avoid large cities, as those are the most dangerous. If you are looking for loot it is recommended that you search for small groups of houses. Additionally, before entering a building check the map to see if there are footsteps nearby.
While you are outside try to avoid open fields. Trees and buildings can help you stay hidden. If you need to go through a field you should move as fast as possible. Use some energy consumables so you can move faster, lower your weapon and sprint. Crawling is also an option, although you shouldn’t do it for a long time.
The play zone
It is very important to pay attention to the play zone. There are two ways to deal with it. First of all you could hide yourself somewhere close to the edge. This way when players get to the zone last minute you will be there to shoot them.
There is another strategy in which you place yourself in the middle of the zone and wait there for your opponents. However, this one might not work all the time, as sometimes the zone does not restrict to its center. It can also get boring to wait, as a match can last up to 20 minutes.
Get a vehicle
A vehicle will protect you and it will help you be a lot faster. There are plenty of options, from cars to motorcycles and boats. Try to find a covered car, as those are safer. If you use a flare gun outside the safe zone, you will received an armored UAZ from the airdrop. The windows are covered and it is the safest vehicle out there. However, this does not mean that you can’t be injured while you’re in the car, so be safe.
Vehicles should also be avoided in small play zones. They make a lot of noise, they are big, and you will definitely attract the attention of the enemies. Vehicles can blow up if opponents shoot at them for a long period of time, and you can die in the explosion.
Last ones standing
If you are in the last circle and you haven’t been spotted yet, stay hidden. All players are crawling at the moment, and the first one to make himself noticed will be killed. Wait until the others give away their positions.
