Call of Duty Mobile: Five Beginners Tips

Call of Duty has finally entered the mobile gaming space significantly with the launch of CoD Mobile and here are some useful tips to help you get started.

With early access to Call of Duty Mobile which was launched worldwide on September 30, players finally have an authentic mobile version of the disc series in their hands.

The game does a fantastic job of replicating the popular FPS franchise, but it differs for obvious reasons to accommodate the new platform. Here are some useful tips for you to start running

During the entire time you play Call of Duty Mobile, you will get many updates for your favorite weapons. These updates can be unlocked by using XP cards.

XP cards are obtained through the battle pass by completing various challenges and gaining experience. Once you have some cards in your inventory, navigate to your cargo, select your weapon of choice, and comb through the many available updates.

Buy weapon upgrades

From various scopes and sights to suppressors and front tips, be sure not to neglect these unlocks, as they can play a key role in providing you with a competitive edge.

Settle on an aiming preference

In essence, Call of Duty has to do with how well you can aim. If you are not hitting any of your shots, none of your targets will meet your disappearance. As soon as the game starts for the first time, you will enter the shooting range to learn the basics of mobile movement and pointing mechanics. Try the two separate aiming settings for yourself and find which one works best for your play style.

The ‘simple mode’ setting will automatically fire your weapon from the hip when your crosshairs are placed on an enemy. Alternatively, the ‘advanced mode’ allows you to adjust the aiming function and even enable 1-touch ADS, which makes it easier to shoot at remote targets. Experiment with both until aiming becomes second nature.

Make yourself harder to hit

It is never the easiest to line up a perfect shot in a mobile shooting game, much less when your target seems to be on ice skates dancing everywhere.

It would be best if you aimed to do this in Call of Duty Mobile once you feel comfortable enough with your aiming basics. Constantly changing the angles, changing direction, and adjusting your movement speed are just things you can do to become a more difficult target, all while inflicting damage on the enemy team.

Know the battlegrounds

Knowing the map is a key factor in all Call of Duty titles. Therefore, the mobile version of the game is no different.

There are nine maps in the game throughout the early access period, and most of them are recreations of favorite maps of fans of previous entrants.

From Nuketown to Standoff and Raid, you must familiarize yourself with the surroundings to better predict where the enemy team will come from. Knowing spawning locations is an important way to find some easier eliminations.

Use killstreaks wisely

Last but not least, be sure to use killstreaks as soon as it is safe to do so. Matches in the mobile version of the game can be incredibly fast, so holding a predatory missile for too long often makes no sense.

Try to find a safe place on the map and call your killstreaks as soon as possible.

Call of Duty Mobile is packed with features, including a playlist ranked at launch. Unlocked at level 10, this playlist is for those who have mastered the aforementioned tips and feel more than confident in their abilities.
