Knowledge about Battle Royale Gameplay
Garena free fire is a Battle Royale game category, which means you need to survive and kill all your opponents to win the match. It is a last man standing game. Free Fire is similar to PUBG, COD Mobile, Fortnite.and so on. They all have similar game plans and require good shooting skill.
You should enhance your reflexes if you want to win the match.
Parachute
When you jump off the plane, after some time you can open your parachute. Do not do this. Opening a parachute will slow down your speed and make you land later than your opponents. Players who land before you can shoot you while you are still in the air: The game will automatically open the parachute when you get close to the ground, so you do not have to worry about it.
Drop Location
Pre-planning the drop location before jumping is very beneficial. This saves a lot of time in the early game and eliminates the problem of early rotation.By now you should be aware of the locations of the map. Dropping off on the right location also plays an important role in winning the match.Depending upon the playstyle, players can either go to hot drops or land in less crowded areas.Hot drops tend to have a lot of loot but it’s highly contested, and there is always a risk of an early encounter with opponents in these locations.
Armour
Most players try to find weapons first. But you need to concentrate on finding an armour first. Your character’s head is most prone to damage, so try to find a helmet first. Headshots can deal huge amounts of damage and can kill you in one hit. You must protect your head before anything else.Even if you have the best weapon in the game, a sniper bullet will be enough to kill you if you do not equip armour. Even if you don't have any weapons in your hands, equipping an armour is sufficient and will allow you to escape from combat and lets you live to fight another day.
Weapons
One of the biggest challenges every player faces is to choose the right combination of weapons.You can carry only two weapons and one pistol on the battlefield, so according to your game plan or team constituency, you need to choose your weapons. Weapons include Assault rifles, SMGs, Shotguns, Snipers, pistols, grenades and much more.
Customise Sensitivity
As you play the game, you may want to customise the sensitivity of your controls to your game style. The game gives you the option to tweak sensitivity, so you can fine-tune and adjust it as per your liking. This comes in handy if you are a sniper where you will be seeing down the scope for most of the game. This gives an edge to you over other players.
Use Minimap
The minimap shows any nearby players that are shooting. However, the map will not only show you the location of the enemy players, but also the direction in which they are shooting. So make use of the minimap as much as possible.
Use Pan
Ever wonder why pro players keep a pan in their hands when they can choose a sword?
Well, The pan acts as a protective shield and blocks bullets coming from behind.
You can use a pan and save yourself all the bullets which are being fired from your back.
Many times, a situation arises when you keep on running to a safe zone, and the enemy fires you from behind. In such scenarios, your pan will take all the bullets and give you cover.
Always be on the move
One major mistake everyone makes is standing still in the game. Standing still makes you an easy target. So you always need to be on the move while in the game. Even if you are running, you need to jump and run at the same time to avoid any damage from the opponents. Even while looting other players, do not stand still.
Use Grenades and Gloo Walls
Use grenades to clear your obstacles or to damage the enemy hiding behind trees, buildings etc. Use Gloo walls for protecting against opponents. Gloo wall acts as a shield. Knowing when to use these weapons is a must.
Using Pets
Pets are used for many factors in a free fire, the earlier pet is only used as entertainment, but now they are used to store your ammunition.So, choose the correct pet and increase your inventory to keep more ammunition.Pets are only visible to your teammates; they are not visible to the enemy.
Use Headphones
You may fail to notice the movements on the playing field, but you can’t miss sounds. Watch out for sounds the other players make, especially in enclosed spaces, and always play with headphones. If you listen carefully enough, you can tell which rooms other players have entered and exactly where they are. For the same reason, do not move too fast: Your opponents can also hear you.
Evading and Surviving
One of the best tactics used by pro players is to evade and survive until the end of the game.
The game doesn't take into consideration the number of kills you have acquired. The last person surviving the match is considered as the winner of the match. Use this tactic to hide behind an obstacle or lay down in the high grounds until the end of the game and push your ranks.
