Learn the Maps

This tip shouldn’t need to have to be said. It should be completely self-understood, but of course, half of you are stupid and the majority of the rest of you are even dumber. So here we go. I’m wasting my first tip on this.

Spend time, going around the map and exploring. Yes, it’s a waste of time, and yes, you will want to just fight instead. But, if you know the map well, you will SO MUCH better at the game. It’s that simple.

Learn and memorize the good locations and strategize for the future. If can recognize your locations straight away, you will know where to go to protect yourself quickly, and you will know where to go to attack quickly.

In short, just pay attention to map and learn it well!

Watch the Pros

Many of you are already doing this tip, but for those of you that aren’t, this is a great tip! Find the good players who stream or record themselves and watch them play.

You will learn so much just by seeing the techniques that they use.

You may have to be careful with this technique. Some of the famous players are more famous for their personalities than for their skills. They couldn’t shoot an enemy combatant even if he was blocking the scope.

The pro players that talk in the background are even better than the silent videos. Their voice may be squeaky and annoying but they usually throw great tidbits into their chatter.

Here’s a list of some of the YouTube Channels to Subscribe to:

Strafing

This is a critical technique if you want to be a pro in COD Mobile.

You can watch the pros do it. Watch them, practice and get good at it. This will save you all the time.

What is Strafing?

Strafing is moving from side to side in order to make it harder for your enemy to shoot you, but all the while keeping your aim focused on your enemy.

This obviously requires you to keep a balanced equilibrium between the two joysticks. If you move to the left, you will need to focus your head/gun on the right. And vise versa.

Watch some videos, practice a ton, because if you can own this technique you will be 246% harder to kill. I made up that statistic based on no research, but I feel that you probably trust me more now, because I provided you with solid statistical numbers.

Here’s the Wikipedia article on strafing. It will help you understand the math and technique.

Also, don’t do bunny hopping, COD Mobile is not Counter-Strike!

Ranking Up Quickly

Ranking up XP Quickly a Tips for Call of Duty: MobileRanking up XP Quickly a Tips for Call of Duty: Mobile

Ranking Up Quickly is Important. Why? Fine, I’ll tell you. Here’s a bunch of reasons:

  • Better Equipment
  • You can connect more attachments
  • You can show off your score
  • Because I said so, that’s why!!!

The fastest way to rank up quickly is by playing a lot of Domination and a lot of Serarch and Destroy. Those game modes offer a lot more XP and therefore faster climb upwards.

Don’t UNDERESTIMATE the XP. Play the two aforementioned modes and get yourself ranked up like a pro!

Use Headphones/Earphones

This technique is not just so that you don’t annoy your sister. Use earphones so that you can hear the game quicker and more accurately.

Even with the best phone, the nuances of the sound will be distorted by the time it reaches your ears. Additionally, the precious 1/1200 second for the sound to travel 1 foot will give less time to react.

You’re probably thinking that I’m being dramatic with this advice, but I’m not. Earphones really make a difference. The sound is nearer to your ear and you can react to a gunshot much quicker.

Additionally, if someone is creeping up behind you, there is no way that you can hear it without earphones.

To summarize: BUY Earphones. Good Earphones. Click here for a list of great gadgets to buy for mobile gaming.

Here’s my advanced list of the best gaming earphones. You’re welcome!

Use the Correct Weapon

Weapons in COD Mobile Tips for Call of Duty: MobileWeapons in COD Mobile Tips for Call of Duty: Mobile

You wouldn’t show up to a 80th birthday party with a bag of baby pacifiers, don’t show up at a map without the incorrect weapons.

A big map (like Crossfire) most successful with a sniper gun or a gun with less recoil. A smaller map (like Killhouse or Nuketown) will be more successful with an assault rifle.

We will add a chart, later on, detailing each map with the best gun to use.

Use the Correct Perks

This is important and is the type of stupidity that you see all the beginner-players doing. Make sure that you use the CORRECT PERKS with the appropriate game-mode.

For example, with Domination, since you’re likely to be spending most of your time fighting of B, you will want to use Flak Jacket and Toughness. Flak Jacket will reduce damage from explosions which will help from all the grenades usually launched in Domination. Toughness will reduce player flinch when shot at. Spoiler Alert, there is a lot of bullets flying around in Domination.

If you use Ghost, you’re a moron. I won’t even bother explaining why! Seriously, get a job! This game isn’t for you!

Pop Socket

This is an incredible technique that no one talks about. Buy a freakin pop-socket for your phone. Pop sockets are those things that you connect to the back of your phone so that you can hold it with more support. They cost a few dollars and they can change your gameplay by 1058%. That is a real statistic based on absolutely no evidence. You’re welcome.

Just buy the stupid pop-socket and prepare yourself to be a little less horrible at a game that you claim you love…

You can even buy one that has Call of Duty imagery.

Start off Strong

This is a great way to get quick and easy kills right at the beginning. This won’t work on all maps, but most of the time this will be incredibly effective.

Start off running towards the most natural destination of where the enemy would be coming from, and then BE READY. Use a gun that has lots of ammo and have your scope to shoot.

If you get good at this, you can collect 3-4 quick kills without even trying hard. Most people start off running like preschools towards candy.

Get a Good Connection

Unless you enjoy rubberbanding and freezing, make sure that you get a good connection. Yes, that may mean that you will no longer be able to steal wifi from neighbors living three blocks away.

Here’s an example of what rubberbanding looks like in Call of Duty: Mobile. You don’t want this! Make sure that your connection is good!

You may have to – wait for it – pay for a real plan with an internet connection.

Rant over.

Sprinting and Sliding

This isn’t the greatest tip in the world but it worthwhile to mention. While sprinting you can press the “crouching button” and that will enable you to slide with running.

This is a great technique to use and can gain you a lot of protection + kills.

Customize the Controls

This is a really important tip. Everyone’s hands are different and everyone has different overall preferences.

Don’t use the default setting!!!

Here are the things that I recommend customizing:

  • Button Placement
  • Sensitivity
  • Fast Throw a Granade
  • Aim Assist

Here’s a helpful hint to work out how to personalize your controls. Think about where the buttons were on the previous game that you played. Your mind and fingers will be used to those settings. Try to mimic the previous settings!

Set the Graphics to Your Phone Capabilities

Here’s a great moment to have a truthful moment about the real capabilities of your phone.

If your phone is incredible (think the latest Samsung Galaxy or the latest iPhone), you will want to put the graphics on the highest setting.

If your phone is dreadful, like the Nokia 5110, you will probably want to put the graphics setting lower.

You can really ruin your gaming experience if you don’t accurately place the graphics settings.

Don’t be the person who thinks he’s fooling anyone by putting on the wrong graphics. The jokes on you when you get shot up like fireworks on New Year’s Eve.

Hide by Lying on Floor

This is a great tip that lots of people know, but many still need to learn.

YOU CAN LIE ON THE FLOOR. Yes, fully on the floor. It helps make you near impossible to be found, especially if you’re in a good hiding spot. This is useful.

This is good to know.

Hold on the crouch button for a few seconds and you will drop completely to the ground.

Use Correct Skill Streaks

Make sure that you get the correct skill streaks for your playing style.

If you are the type of player to tent (stay in the same area) then you will want to use Counter-UAV or Sentry Gun. If you are the player who goes running into the action then you will want to use UAV or preditor missile.

The point is, learn how you play and get the correct skill streaks.

If you are a sucky player, don’t go for the VTOL. It’s a waste of your time.

If you want to be a complete moron, try going for the nuke. But, because you can’t even tie your shoes without help, the percentage chance of you actually getting it is smaller than your IQ.

Get FREE COD Credit Points

COD points let you get really cool stuff for Call of Duty. They’re not a necessity but they are really great and will make you seem like a more formidable player.

Here are some ways to get COD points:

  • Use all your life-saving on buying in-app purchases. Who cares about rent anyways?
  • Watch advertisements. Boring, but hey, beggars can’t be choosers!
  • Finish the Weekly Challenges

Play with Friends

This is a basic tip, but highly effective. Play with friends and conspire with them. You can talk as well.

Great tip, and obviously makes the whole gaming experience a lot more fun.

Use Correct Attachments

This tip needs a lot more explanation than what I’m in the mood of giving. It’s an advanced tip but very important to lifting your overall effectiveness.

Make sure that you use attachments that compliment the weaknesses of the gun that you are using.

For example, if you’re using the MSMC – which only has 30 range – you will want to attach a Long Barrel – SMG in order improve range.

Don’t Cheat

Yes, there are a million articles and videos about how to cheat in COD Mobile. The problem, of course, is, COD actually police their game. This means that if your busted using controllers, fake purchases and other dodgy stuff, you will be kicked out!

Unless you like making videos like this, please don’t cheat…

Team Deathmatch: Don’t Go for Kills

In Team Deathmatch, it’s tempting to run around killing, but that is stupid. Focus on the objective and kill as you go along.

Obviously, don’t be an idiot. If you see a kill, take it.

My point is, don’t go chasing kills. Focus on the objective and don’t get overly sidetracked with other stuff!

Search and Destroy: Change Routes

Search and Destroy mode is a lot of fun if you use your brains. There are a many tips for owning this game-mode. Stay tuned we will add them to this article.

The most important tip is to change routes. Don’t reuse the same route more than twice. This will keep the enemy on their toes. Otherwise, they will know where you are and cut you to ribbons.

Obviously, Search and Destroy will only be successful if you use solid communication.

Frontline

You score kills in proportion to how many times you die in a match. Winning depends more on your K/D ratio than your kill total. If you die 20 times in a match, 15 kills are useless. In Call of Duty: Mobile, negative K/D ratios lose Frontline matches.

Avoid rashly killing adversaries to save time. Minimizing Frontline match deaths is also critical. Kill more than you’re killed to keep your K/D ratio over one. Your match history stats show how your K/D ratios are doing.

Stay close to walls, cars, boxes, and fences when fighting the adversary. After taking many hits, you can hide behind nearby cover to regain health for a few seconds before firing again.

The main distinction between Frontline and Team Deathmatch is that opposing players respawn together. You can employ the spawn trap approach in Frontline because you know where adversaries are coming from. To trap the opposition team in its respawn region, kill players from outside the zone.

Domination

RUSH B! Located in the middle of the map is Target B. Take Target B right away if you want to win quickly and give your team an edge in points. What if the chances are

Going to target C in the enemy’s base is also a good idea so they can’t get points.

In the Domination mode, the number of kills doesn’t change the points. You can go straight to the enemy base and take it over to get Target C.

Lightweight is one of the best Perks you can get. It will speed up your moving by up to 10%, so you can get to Target B or C faster.

In Domination mode, the SMRS is the best backup weapon because enemies tend to gather in one spot, where you can kill them all with a single shot.

Have a smoke bomb ready to hide near target B and C if you want to quickly take them over. So you can hide without being seen, make sure you use the smoke bomb while you are on your back.

Hardpoint

Hardpoint matches always have the same map positions for the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth objectives. No hardpoint objective is randomly placed. Every map features the same hardpoint positions in the same sequence.

Keep in mind the order of map hardpoints. You should play Hardpoint maps non-ranked to become used to their positions. Remembering the next spot lets you get there first.

Scorestreak’s weapons can help you get hard points. You can use weapons like the XS1 Goliath, Shock RC, Predator Missile, and VTOL to kill enemies defending hardpoint objectives when Scorestreaks are turned on. Save your Scorestreaks for times when you need them, like when you need to hit hardpoints that are well-defended.

Grenades and other explosives are regularly used in Hardpoint matches, therefore the Flack Jacket is appropriate. Flack Jackets minimize explosive damage by 35%. It naturally protects against grenades and trip mines in matches.

In hardpoint matches, you must rush to reach hardpoint spots quickly. After respawning, you can reach enemy hardpoints faster with faster movement. You must also outrun your opponents to unoccupied hardpoint spots.

Kill Confirmed

It’s tempting to rush head-first into a gathering of adversaries and let the bullets fly. Your dog tag may be handed over to the other team on a silver platter.

Waiting for the right moment is crucial. If you have any distance between you and your enemies, kill them quickly. Picking them off one by one will result in one dog tag instead of three.

Grab a blue dog tag if you see one. It will increase your XP and prevent the enemy team from scoring. That’s why group travel is smart. Someone nearby can pick up your dog tag if you get taken out, and you have more firepower.

Defensive kill streaks matter little in Kill Confirmed. Kill streaks that benefit your squad and charge quickly are ideal. The RC Shock Car and map-revealing UAV are our two weaker streaks. They recharge quickly, and trailing the RC car is a terrific way to get back into the action with a big advantage.

Have something powerful for your big streak. You won’t gather tags with a stealth chopper or flying gun turret, but you’ll cause a lot of damage quickly. You may be ahead even if your team just takes half of your tags.
