The game features an extensive multiplayer mode and a newly added Battle Royale Mode.

Battle Royale games have been around for a good while now, and everyone will agree that looting plays a crucial role in all of them. Sure, players are using new strategies and different types of techniques in these games, but without proper loot, nobody can dominate the battlefield. 

You might think, "Then which are the best places to loot in Call of Duty Mobile battle royale mode"? Trust us, finding loot spots is a hectic job as loot in one spot varies in one match to the other. But we at Shadow Knight gaming, have already done the hard work for you! Here is our top list of the best Looting Spots of Call of Duty Mobile.

In the image above -
  • The Red Circles indicate the best loot.
  • The Yellow Circles indicate the medium loot.
  • The White circles indicate the low loot.
In this article, we will focus on the Top3 Red Circles as they provide the best and consistent loot.


Top Loot Locations in Call of Duty Mobile Battle Royale Mode


Launch

The launch is a hot drop Location in the Call of Duty Battle Royale map. You can find superior rifles and snipers here. The many tall buildings, small houses, shacks, and tunnels have okay to a decent amount of guns and ammo along with other loot items.

Risk vs. Loot Ratio: Good


Shipment

Shipment is another area where you can expect the best loot. Located near the sea coast, the place is connected with a bridge to Seaside. However, what makes it more special is that you will find a helicopter parked on helipad behind the central area. The chopper will help make traveling easier and faster from one place to another.

Risk vs. Loot ratio: Good

Nuclear plant

You can find this place at the end of the map. It has a lot of buildings and a large abandoned Nuclear power plant. Hence the name. The power plant is only accessible by a single door, making it a choke point. However, the loot is great. Even the chimneys contain gun attachments and ammo.

Risk vs. Loot ratio: Good



Crash

It is a massive area with a lot of buildings. This place is located south to Launch. It is not marked as a hot drop location because of lower than the average number of player drops in the area. The loot available is plenty for a squad to gear up. If you plan to drop by, we will recommend that you start by landing on a high roof and work your way down. So, when you finally reach the ground floor, you will be fully geared to take on anyone.

Risk vs. Loot ratio: Good 


Sakura

Sakura is the most beautiful location in the call of duty mobile battle royal map. It is a laid back area with minimal to moderate player drops. It is an open area that is more spread out than crash. The loot is good with minimal risk. Drop at this location if you want an easy early game. Landing on high buildings in this area is a good strategy. It will give you a great view and a great vantage point.

Risk vs. Loot Ratio: Good



Bus Station

The bus station is a cool spot to land, but it swarms with enemies all the time. There is an opening at the heart of the area where you can get a unique crate or loot box. But it can be risky. Going for the open space means you will be exposed to snipers with little to cover. Give it a shot if you are a rusher.

Risk vs. Loot Ratio: Average


Pipeline

The pipeline is a sweet loot spot. Here you will get all sorts of loot, but there is a reason why we don't recommend this location. First, it is a trendy loot area (which means there will be a lot of players). Second, the best loot is located at the warehouses in the area. There is always a chance that you will run into someone while going for the loot. The worst part, you arrive late and find a maxed out player in the warehouse. Give it a shot if you are confident about your gun swinging skill.

Risk vs. Loot Ratio: Average ( The loot Great with Very high risk)

Farm

We saved the best one in the end for our loyal readers. This is our absolute favorite spot. It's got the biggest town right next to it. Anywhere you land will almost always have good loot. Be aware that there will be lots of players as well. However, the loot distribution is excellent, so you are less likely to run into someone unarmed. Try to land on the western side of the city next to the farm. It will give you the best chance of finding the best loot!

Risk vs. Loot Ratio: Good


Colored Dots on Map

If you are a pro, you probably don't know about this. You can find great loots (crates) on certain locations of the map. These locations appear as blue, green, purple dots on the map. If you are close to the site, you will see a beam of light with the respective colors. This is similar to the airdrop system in PUBG. However, all players can see those dots appear. So, expect some action if you plan to visit those spots.

So that's all for today. Thanks a ton for reading our article "CALL OF DUTY MOBILE BEST LOOT LOCATIONS FINALLY REVEALED." Visit all the spots and tell us what loots did you find? Remember, loot spawns are random in call of Duty. So, you may not find great loot at all locations all the time. However, you are more likely to get good loot in the sites mentioned above than any other place on the map. Articles like these require a lot of research and hard work. So it would mean a lot to us if you follow our blog. Lastly, share this article with friends and family, and we will see you in the next post.
Peace.

CALL OF DUTY MOBILE vs PUBG MOBILE: BATTLE OF THE BROTHERS

Call of Duty Mobile vs PUBG Mobile

After a long, long wait Call of Duty Mobile is here (well, sort of). The game after being teased for what seems like ages now was finally made available on Playstore as a closed beta a couple of days back. Call of Duty Mobile is currently available only in certain regions of the world and that too, only for a batch of players who pre-registered first. So, when one of our teammates was selected for the closed beta, we didn't waste any time to test it out and put it up against its half Brother yet biggest competitor PUBG Mobile. So without further delay let's dive into arguably the biggest showdown of 2019, Call of Duty Mobile vs PUBG Mobile.

Call of Duty Mobile vs PUBG Mobile


Let's have a look at the newcomer. Call of Duty or CoD (in short) needs no introduction. After being in the talks from earlier last year, the game finally made an appearance in the play store. CoD Mobile was up for pre-registration on Playstore just after being officially showcased by the developers at GDC 2019. Call of Duty is a massive name in the Gaming community, and it shows in the numbers. According to a recent report the Mobile game has clocked more than 10 Million pre-registration till date. The game takes a lot of its cues from the Modern Warfare series.
On the other hand, PUBG Mobile made it's the first appearance in Q4 2017 a year after PUBG PC (the game that defined battle Royale Genera) was officially unveiled. Since then, PUBG Mobile has come a long way. Even though there were similar games in the market such as Rules of Survival and Free fire, PUBG Mobile blew the competition out of the water with 100 million downloads in just 4 months.
Both the games come from the house of the Chinese tech giant Tencent. That makes them brothers, right? Let's look at them side by Side.


Now before we get into this topic do keep in mind that PUBG Mobile is a full-fledged stable game compared to Call of Duty Mobile which is in its first beta testing.

Login Lobby

The login menu is more or less similar in both the games. The lobby UI in PUBG is more simplistic and clean. Whereas the lobby looks more aesthetically pleasing in Call of Duty Mobile and has a Modern Warfarearfare vibe to it. We will leave the choice to you. Which one do you like more?



The Game Modes

Both the Games offer similar game modes that include Quick Match mode, Zombie mode and everyone's favourite Battle Royale Mode. Unfortunately, even though these modes are present in the game menu of Call of Duty Mobile, only quick matches are available as of now. So that's an instant win for PUBG Mobile. But Call of Duty has more quick match options than PUBG Mobile. A total of 6 compared to 3 in PUBG.

Here is the list-


  • Front line
  • Death Match
  • Search and destroy
  • arch and destroy Casual
  • Domination
  • Heard point
  • Free to all

Maps

PUBG Mobile Maps

Yes, the maps are minimal in Call of Duty Mobile compared to the ones in PUBG Mobile. But the matches are fast enough that you don't get bored with it. Also, there is an excellent collection of Maps (don't forget the iconic & Fan-favorites) in Call of Duty Mobile.


Graphics

Both the games have more or less similar graphics settings. PUBG Mobile offers more colour profiles compared to 3 currently present in Call of Duty Mobile. Also, PUBG Mobile has HDR and extreme frame rates options in supported devices.

Settings and Controls

The settings menu is more polished on polished in PUBG Mobile. Everything is laid off nicely. The same cannot be said about Call of Duty Mobile though. PUBG Mobile also offers more customisation, such as how many ammo do you want to auto pick up for each gun by default.
Call of Duty Mobile, on the other hand, provides 2 Control options. Basic and advanced. The default Control settings are basic and come with autofire enabled.

Gameplay and Performance

The gameplay is an area which can make or break any game. Think about Need for Speed Most Wanted 2012. The game looked fantastic, but the gameplay sucked.
Luckily for CoD Mobile, we didn't have any such complaints. In fact, the game ran even better than PUBG Mobile on my pretty low-end Redmi Note 4 with 3 GB of RAM on medium settings. There was no lag what so ever. However network lag was evident at times on Jio 4G, but that's okay considering the issue has more to do with the network than the game itself. My phone did heat up while playing the game for around 10 minutes or so but the gameplay remained smooth throughout the session. 

The quick matches are literally fast and action-packed! We, in particular, liked the kill assist tag. Say you and your teammate kill an enemy together. The player with the highest damage gets the kill, and the other kill assists tag. It completely removes the heated arguments surrounding "YOU STOLE MY KILL!!!".

One thing to note is Call of Duty Mobile doesn't have any gun recoil mechanics! They may add it later on, but it makes the game so easy on small screen phones!! Let us know your take in the comments below.


GUNS & Throwables 

The two games have a rich armoury. Plenty of guns and gun skins. However, PUBG Mobile has more weapons as of now. Call of Duty does have a flamethrower. Smoke grenades will be added in the battle Royale Mode of Call of Duty.

Extras

while PUBG Mobile gives you the ability to customise your characters with clothes and skins call of Duty Mobile gives you iconic characters like Captain Price and Ghost.

Another quick little addition to Call of Duty Mobile is the classic Predator drone strike in the quick match. After some kills, you can call in a missile strike on your enemies and guide the missile to hit them. You may as well call in a UAV or a Handheld drone to help in suppressing the enemy in the open. Killing multiple enemies in one strike, it brings back memories of Modern Warfare Series.

Drone Strike option Call of Duty Mobile

Conclusion

We really liked Call of Duty Mobile a lot. It has a lot of features we wish were in PUBG Mobile such as a drone and kills assist tag. Instead, we got a bird that sits on your shoulder or Companion.
  
All in all, we never imagined that we will get play such a game on a mobile device. It has the classic Call of Duty vibe which is enough to make us jump ship. We can't conclude everything from Just testing an early beta, but as of Now PUBG Mobile still has the upper hand. Moreover, it has a vast user base and is out for everyone! Call of Duty for sure gives it a hard time after it's a stable release. But it will take some time for CoD Mobile to dominate the market in Asia at least. Although Call of Duty will have a significant impact on the western market. It has been the leading franchise in terms of sales in the United States for almost 2 decades after all.

So that all for today! We hope the article "CALL OF DUTY MOBILE vs PUBG MOBILE: BATTLE OF THE BROTHERS" was helpful. Please follow our blog for more and do check out our other posts. We will see you soon on our next post.
Peace.

PUBG MOBILE UPDATE: SEASON 7 & EVERYTHING ELSE YOU NEED TO KNOW

PUBG Mobile Season 7 Update is about to be launched. Here is everything you need to before the official rollout.
PuBG Mobile, Season 7

Hey readers!
Hope everyone is going great. Recently we told you guys about a leaked PUBG Mobile Chinese Beta (check that out if you haven't yet.), and today we are here to share some more update news. YES! Season 7 is here! PUBG Mobile Season 7 is about to be launched with 0.12.5 patch Update, and we can't wait to tell you guys everything we know so far! So without further delay, here is Everything You Need to Know about the Latest PUBG Mobile Update.



Before we Start Huge Thanks to Mr.GHOST GAMING & CLASSIFIED YT for making this article possible. Do Check out their Youtube Channels. (Links in their respective Channel names)

PUBG MOBILE UPDATE


New Rewards

PUBG Mobile Season 7

There is nothing out of the ordinary here. Just like any season update, there are few new emotes if you buy Season 7 Elite Pass. You get an Eagle Pan Skin and Season 6 exclusive Anniversary Avatar Frame if you upgrade to the Elite Plus Pass. You also get a Swayin' Away emote with Elite Pass Plus, but the emote was already available for Elite Pass holders in the previous Season. As of now, we don't know how it will differ from the former. 
One good thing about buying the Elite Pass is that you will get 600 UC back once you reach RP100 (20UC each in 30 different paid RP levels).

New RP based Ranking System

PUBG Mobile Season 7 New RP SystemPlayers will be given badges according to their RP Ranks. We just don't know exactly how it will work at the time of writing this article. But it is safe to say that there will be some rewards associated with each RP Rank. Your RP rank will be dependent on your current RP level/Points.


New Perk System

PUBG Mobile Season 7 Perks

Along with the new  RP Ranking based badge system, a New RP Perk system was spotted. It is marked as "RP EZ Mission Licence". The Perks are quite self-explanatory.

  • Perk 1 unlocks weekly challenge missions 1 week ahead of time. 
  • Perk 2 gives you 2 Mission cards each week and 
  • Perk 3 will let you open week 8 RP crate without completing any week 8 missions.

PUBG Mobile Season 7 Perks

The best part is though that if you buy 3 consecutive Royal Pass (season 7 onwards, i.e. Season 7,8,9), then you will get all 3 Perks for FREE! If you want to use perks in Season 7, you will have to pay a premium of 150 UC after you have paid for the Elite Pass. Here is a screenshot for better understanding.

PUBG Mobile Season 7 Perks

  

New Gun & Gun Skins

Let's dive into something that is not so boring. YES! We are talking about New GUNS! Or just Gun. There is only one addition to to the guns list. The much-awaited Scorpion. Scorpion is a sidearm (takes the pistol slot) that fires 9mm rounds with an ammo capacity of 20 rounds.

Scorpion PUBG Mobile

You can add an extended mag, and it will have twice as much capacity. It supports a whole lot of accessories, including stock and a vertical foregrip. Have a look at the fully kitted scorpion!!!

Scorpion PUBG Mobile

In simple terms, Scorpion is a pistol that Packs the Punch of a Submachine Gun. The days of UMP9 are gone. The only downside is it cannot accommodate any scopes other than a red-dot sight.

Gun Skins

PUBG Mobile Season 7 Gun Skins

Talking about Gun Skins, the leaked pictures show a host of cool skins the blue, white, black AKM does remind us of a pro player. If you can guess the name comment down below. Let's see who gets it right.  However, these AKM and KAR-98 skins were not available in the game at the time of writing this article. Instead, we found 2 new Uzi skins in the lab menu. Have a look for yourself. You can also get a custom kill message by upgrading them.

PUBG Mobile Uzi Gun Skin

#Note: One of our readers informed us that the 2 Uzi Skins received some hate from a lot of people due to the naming scheme. So the Gunskins are now called Savagery- UZI.

New Plane Skin, Flight and Parachute Trails

PUBG Mobile Season 7 |Flight Trails

See the light rays coming from the wings of the plane? These are called flight trails. The players will also have similar effects while jumping off the plane.

PUBG Mobile Season 7 |Parachute Trails

You will have to buy parachute trails on per match basis. The price is 50 silver fragments.
A new plane Skin is added too which will be unlocked at some RP level and hopefully will not be paid.

Companion Update

PUBG Mobile Companion

Finally, Companion is coming to the global version of PUBG Mobile. You might have seen an eagle falcon-like button in below the lab button once you open inventory in the current version as well which would show an error message once you tap it. The companion is basically a falcon that sits on your shoulder. You can feed it to increase the companion level. We have already covered the this in Details before. If you want you to find out more about the Companion, please read the article below.
                             


Avatar Changes & Outfits

Few new hairstyles are added in this update as well as facial hair or beard for the avatars. Here have a look for yourself. You can also customise the Beard colour irrespective of the hair colour.

PUBG Mobile Season 7 Update |Added Facial Hair for Avatars   

There are 2 different outfits as well. Once you reach the highest RP levels, you can choose one of them.
PUBG Mobile Season 7 Update

Time Restrictions on Zombie Modes

Zombie modes can now only be played in select hours of the day. On weekends though that is from Friday to Sunday, there will be no such time restrictions. Not sure why would the developers incorporate something like that in the game?

Our Thoughts and Release Date

So far, the update seems good. It doesn't have any over the top features or game improvements. But there a few things that will make you want to spend on the game, like the Companion (you will have to buy companion food to level it up) or the Flight and Parachute Trails or the various Perks or the RP Rank System. Lately PUBG Mobile is trying really hard to increase their revenue. We don't blame them but at the same time feel that PUBG Mobile needs a lot of improvements and optimisations which are just lacking in this Update.

PUBG Mobile Season 6 will end by 15th May, and if everything works by the schedule, we might see the update as early as 17th May 2:00 GMT or 7:30 IST onwards. There will be no maintenance break as the update will be in-game. The size of the update will be around 219 MB and 283 MB on Android and iOS, respectively.


That's all for now. Hope you liked our article"PUBG MOBILE UPDATE: Season 7 and Everything Else You Need to Know". Don't forget to share with friends and teammates before the update starts to roll out. Lastly, follow our blog for more content like these and we will see you on our very next post.
Peace.
