Call of Duty: Mobile: Top tips and tricks for COD –
1. Keep your Graphic settings Optimum.
So if your phone does support Ultra HD graphics but also just renders a low FPS then it is advisable that you change the graphic setting. You should consider keeping the graphics on HD or medium because by doing so your phone will be able to render all the frames and give you a smooth experience. But, what is more important is that if you play at a higher FPS your taps on the screen will be registered in game faster and that will give you a advantage over the other players. It is always advisable to maintain your FPS over player at a higher graphic setting.
Call Of Duty Mobile offers you two different shooting modes viz Simple mode and Advanced mode. While playing with your shooting settings on simple mode whenever your aim pointer goes over the enemy your weapon will automatically fire without your scope. Advance mode is the one that is advisable to play the game with the shooting settings in advanced mode. However, if you prefer playing on the simple mode you can go ahead with it keeping in mind that you will need the advanced settings if you wish to succeed in the battle royale mode. One problem that you will face when you play with simple shooting controls is that if you’re just trying to have a look at what your enemy is doing by scoping in on him and if your aim pointer lands on the enemy it will automatically fire giving away your position. If you were scoped in with a sniper rifle than you might be at a disadvantage as you will take time to load the second bullet and your enemy will shoot you down first.
