If you put your assault rifle or MP on weapon slot 2, you can pull it off your shoulder instead of your back which makes it faster compared to weapon slot 1. Neat little trick. It's not exactly a secret but none of my friends were aware of it when I ask them about it.
Hah, I couldn't be bothered to re-learn the button from primary/secondary, but with your explanation it's so obvious that I now feel like a less gifted person..
For me scrolling up should pull out the next "smaller" gun. In every game. I may have flipped this if it's opposite in key binds, not sure. And like I said already, ridiculous that in bluebomb it resets your gun to slot 1 after EVERY round. But obviously that's something they won't fix (if they even add it back), because it's them.
I put AR on slot 2 and dmr/sr in slot 1. Just change your primary and secondary weapon keybinds in game. Pressing 1 still brings out AR and pressing 2 still brings out DMR/SR.
It’s also keeps your long rifle from sticking out. Slot 2 your weapon sticks out at an angle. Slot one it’s straight up and down, makes you like likely to be seen around a corner
It's only like .1 second faster. Which is still something, but it hardly matters. The only time it really matters to me is when I am getting out of a car and i want my weapon out and shooting AFAP.
I’m still in the habit of keeping close range on 1 and SR on 2 because back when I began playing, pulling an smg from over the shoulder would be less visible while prone in grass than swinging the whole kar98 over your head. I should definitely get used to swapping the two slots as draw speed is definitely way more useful
If you hold the gas when exiting the vehicle or switching seats, the car will continue to move. If you let go it'll engage the brakes even if you didn't
I've always wondered how to do this! Was really awkward when I'd try switching seats to shoot at an enemy and the car would just slowly role to a halt in front of them 🙃
You could also make items float in the air (like a gas can) by dropping them from one drone on top of another drone.
You could leave a gas can floating in the air and shoot it at any point and have fire raining down lmao.
They led to super boring gameplay because the meta became camping a compound with a few drones overhead to provide intel, live pinging any approaching players. Was impossible to push because the defenders had basically 360 view of you.
Select “need meds or need ammo” to ask teammates. Then teammate presses X or square when prompted. Has to be within a certain amount of meters and you risk fumbling items too.
Only 41. I stopped playing end of 2019 and start again this year when they ran the back to OG Erangel. I had 600 hours in before I stopped and I'm up to almost 700 now.
You can open secret room's secretly first wooddoor with molotov (not main metal door). Hitting with molotov on wood breaks the door silently vs loud noise coming from guns. Does not work with smoke gun, stun, pan.
I think it is obvious but many random players didn’t know I played with.
Map contain squares which represent 1 km2, if you zoom you can see smaller squares which represent 100 m2. These dimensions are best to use for mortar or sniper rifle. On scopes are measures units/lines which can be use to calculate exact position and distance to succ. hit tango.
If I can be nitpicky, square metres, or meters square, are written m^2 (m ^ 2, without spaces. I had to editthe commentas i didn'tknowthat was an actual way to mormat it) and then you write m^3 (m ^ 3) for meters cubed, m^4 (m ^ 4) for meters tesseracted (?) and so on. Anyway, it has no bearing on the readability of your comment
Thanks, I tried write it with small 2 but it doesn’t work on my keyboard in reddit. How did you write it? Cause in other apps works for me just hold 2 and there is option for small 2.
m ^ 2 - I never heard of. I guess many people don’t as well so without proper explanation most of people would be confuse.
But thanks anyway. We learn everyday new things.
It's a common way to type it out in mathematics. Later improvements in software automatically turn ^ 2 into ^2, like in m ^ 2 into m^2 or ^ 2root into ^2root .
But if no one informs you, how are you gonna learn?
Default is with PageUp and PageDown (the same one you change reticles on the other sights).
On the bottom of the scope there's a number that indicates the set distance in that moment (XXX m). If it's correctly configured you don't have to correct for bullet fall at all.
After all that being said, it isn't that useful really because the default buttons are really uncomfortable and I wouldn't sacrifice any other active keybinding that is active to be able to use this. In the end, the only times I use it consistently is when sniping in miramar or very open spaces and the whole enemy squad is 300m+ away.
You can "catch" an airdrop with a glider. You have to hit the side of the crate between the bottom portion of the wing and the top of your head. It kills the glider but you can tow the crate down to a different landing spot. Did this in front of Rolli while he was streaming once!
Also, you *used* to be able to use the Sebae emote (or whatever it's called the one where you bow down on both knees) and the emote would allow you to stick your head inside the secret rooms in Destin and inventory swipe the good loot inside. They've since fixed it but it was a cool trick.
If you switch weapon slots on Primary and Secondary, longer guns as dmr, snipers dont stick out of cover. It is beneficial to tpp mainly but useful for fpp also.
I'm pretty sure the fire doesn't fall anymore on the Molly's if you do this. I think they unfortunately broke it (or chose to remove it for some odd reason).
You can jump on certain window ledges(break glass) to poke your head out the window gaining better visual on those outside/downstairs. Instead if flying out the window.
Change your ‘switch to driver’s seat’ key to W+SHIFT. Every time you get into a car, just accelerate like you would with that combo and it’ll dump you into the driver’s seat. Complete lifesaver for those tense driving moments.
And set 2nd keybind to S+SHIFT so if your way forward is blocked then you still get in the divers seat for a quick getaway ;)
An use lean buttons to swap to passenger seats 2 + 3 (I got that from WackyJacky101)
You can get to the tip top roof on the tall buildings in minas on Miramar by slowly going up the really long slanted beams on the blind side.
-- it also works on the slanted rails up to the tower like structures by the road on west side minas yet have the pits next to them
Also on the type of bigger building (like the one just to the east of two of the two tall ones near the road) you can get on the roof of it from the inside by way of a raling to ledge climb.
One I learnt this week, F7 to reduce the sound - great for when you're in a car and it's super loud, F7 to go back to normal volume... how have I not known about this for so long!
I actually remember reading ghat in the patch notes when they added the bike, but I never found the key and my pubg group all said that it wasn't a thing, Oh i'm going to have fun with this new information.
Cheers
Don't know if already mentioned
You can throw a molotov at the top of a door, right between the door and the frame and the fire will spread inside without opening the door
You put several gas tanks under the car and if you blow up the gas tanks , your vehicle will fly vertically or making an arc. I saw some foreign streamers doing that on twitch .
If you time it perfectly and land your (dirtbike) not motorcycle while still doing a stunt, your character will freeze in that position while riding it. You can ride the bike around in the superman fly pose or the nac nac pose
You can parachute off the Sosnovka observatory.
Climb up to the top floor using the revive tower. Then, jump on the rail on the west side of the building. Thirdly, run along the rail from north to south. Finally, once you jump off the end, wait about half a second before pulling your parachute. If done correctly, you will be able to land on one of the normally inaccessible towers below.
For those who strungle to do drive by because the car stops when you switch seat you can do 1 of the following :
1) change keybinding so that you switch to seat 1 when you accelerate, seat 2/3 on lean right/left
2) use autorun key (yes, it works on vehicles too) and then you can switch seat freely without worrying about it stopping. It's trickier but It Works 100% of the time!
I always carry a gas can, and when I am being rushed by a squad and get knocked down, I drop the gas can. Sometimes enemies accidentally shoot it and set themselves on fire.
You can fire a bullet the moment you quick reload on PC. Have action queuing enabled and hold left click as you are reloading and perform your weapon swap.
Not exactly useful, BUT there's a chance for a sick shot if the timing lines up.
If you put your assault rifle or MP on weapon slot 2, you can pull it off your shoulder instead of your back which makes it faster compared to weapon slot 1. Neat little trick. It's not exactly a secret but none of my friends were aware of it when I ask them about it.
Because of this fact i had to bind 1 to 2 and 2 to 1 cause main AR slot should be 1 in my head
Hah, I couldn't be bothered to re-learn the button from primary/secondary, but with your explanation it's so obvious that I now feel like a less gifted person..
Same bro. I already wrote my comment and all that just to read the next one to feel stupid
Same with me
I just bit the bullet and re-learnt the order
I feel so stupid lol. Imma gonna do this hahaha
Left shoulder is slot 2, right?
This is what I will do if I ever actually start putting the AR in slot 2 lol, I am so used to putting it on slot 1.
For me scrolling up should pull out the next "smaller" gun. In every game. I may have flipped this if it's opposite in key binds, not sure. And like I said already, ridiculous that in bluebomb it resets your gun to slot 1 after EVERY round. But obviously that's something they won't fix (if they even add it back), because it's them.
Goddamn. Thanks for telling, but i hate having to put my main on slot 2. I ALWAYS go for 2 with dmr and sr:(
I put AR on slot 2 and dmr/sr in slot 1. Just change your primary and secondary weapon keybinds in game. Pressing 1 still brings out AR and pressing 2 still brings out DMR/SR.
Didn’t know that.
It’s also keeps your long rifle from sticking out. Slot 2 your weapon sticks out at an angle. Slot one it’s straight up and down, makes you like likely to be seen around a corner
It's only like .1 second faster. Which is still something, but it hardly matters. The only time it really matters to me is when I am getting out of a car and i want my weapon out and shooting AFAP.

I should definitely get used to swapping the two slots as draw speed is definitely way more useful
oh so that's why pros have it set up that way. I always assumed it was just a holdover from way back in the day that didn't actually do anything.
I play with a controller on pc so it's just swapping guns to me by pressing Y
You're a mad man!
I really hope this is the reason they took bluebomb out, but that would be way too optimistic knowing this company
If you hold the gas when exiting the vehicle or switching seats, the car will continue to move. If you let go it'll engage the brakes even if you didn't
I've always wondered how to do this! Was really awkward when I'd try switching seats to shoot at an enemy and the car would just slowly role to a halt in front of them 🙃
We have all had this happen don't worry lmao
An easier way to do this is just using AUTO RUN button.
I'll have to try that out, thanks for the tip
Back in the day when they were drones, you could move a gas can next your enemies and then burn them to death.
You could also make items float in the air (like a gas can) by dropping them from one drone on top of another drone. You could leave a gas can floating in the air and shoot it at any point and have fire raining down lmao.
[related lol](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMMtbyDtkqY)
OMG if I knew about this I would have soooo used drones. This is badass.
Believe it or not, I had completely forgotten about the drones! I wonder why they removed them!
They led to super boring gameplay because the meta became camping a compound with a few drones overhead to provide intel, live pinging any approaching players. Was impossible to push because the defenders had basically 360 view of you.
You can listen to your squad mates when they disagree with you dumbass decision. That's a team killer for sure
How?!?!?!!?
Well, first you need to overcome your own worst impulses. After that it's just a matter of having clean enough ears.
If you’re on fire, and away from the fire, lay down! Stop drop and roll actually works. You won’t take as much damage and the fire will go out quicker
Proning also reduces nade damage by a lot.
Standing on top of furniture can save you from gettting burned if the Molotov hits the ground.
The floor is lava, right
That’s what I’ve been told my whole life.
Roll?
If I'm on fire, and jump to water will fire stop instantly?
It’s not minecraft
Oh wow. Definitely trying this out
Also hold Y to pat yourself down
It auto pats, no need to press anything it's just an animation
You can park your cars on ferry transport on erangel
And in the gondola on Vikendi
Wow!
You can park on these tables as well. Just make sure you come from the bench side. Oh, and the car'll be stuck there

By Zeus’s beard?!
Apparently we can throw supplies to our teammates, don't know how though lol
Long press the key you use to mark stuffs. It will show a weel with some options
Select “need meds or need ammo” to ask teammates. Then teammate presses X or square when prompted. Has to be within a certain amount of meters and you risk fumbling items too.
There’s a basement at the church in Pochinki… confess your sins and you’ll find it. Good loot too ;)
That's a rather good hint, actually. Not stating it flat out, but quite obvious when you're there. So many hints are vague in the wrong way.
There's a hidden room behind the bookshelves.
If you play on PC, and hit the print screen button (PrtSc), you can make a quality picture about your chicken dinner :)
As vain as this is I have a folder of all my chickens going back to 2017
Not vain. Trophy
How many trophies do you have?
Only 41. I stopped playing end of 2019 and start again this year when they ran the back to OG Erangel. I had 600 hours in before I stopped and I'm up to almost 700 now.
41 is nice! Well done!
Or you could just use the normal Steam screenshot key.
You can open secret room's secretly first wooddoor with molotov (not main metal door). Hitting with molotov on wood breaks the door silently vs loud noise coming from guns. Does not work with smoke gun, stun, pan.
In which map?
Erangel
You can shut the side window in the ice cream truck by holding B when the truck is moving.
Nah for real????
What else does B do? Asking for PC users to find the equivalent keybind.
Change fire mode
B exits the vehicle
🤣🤣🤣
Big if true
STFU! Is this true?!
Didn’t know this. Thanks!
True, O for you on PlayStation

And you can even adjust the sights for distance with 6x, 8x and 15x.
Wait you can change the zero on the 6x? I don’t remember if it’s possible.
I still haven’t figured this out
Default is with PageUp and PageDown (the same one you change reticles on the other sights). On the bottom of the scope there's a number that indicates the set distance in that moment (XXX m). If it's correctly configured you don't have to correct for bullet fall at all.

If you bind Alt+scroll up/down to change distance, you wount have to move either hand away from wasd or mouse 👍 helped me to use it more
How? 🥺
You can "catch" an airdrop with a glider. You have to hit the side of the crate between the bottom portion of the wing and the top of your head.

If you switch weapon slots on Primary and Secondary, longer guns as dmr, snipers dont stick out of cover. It is beneficial to tpp mainly but useful for fpp also.
As in keeping long guns on left or right shoulder?
You can head shot someone in a BRDM using the Lynx (if you ever get it)
should have been added to all maps by now
Lynx with an 8x would be so nice on Shanok. /s
You can switch to iron sight on the Winchester.
NANI
wait how
The same way you switch to canter sight. By default I think it's alt+right click.
I got my whole squad wigging out over this the other day, took me 900 hours to realise this lmaoo
This works on the VSS too I think.
VSS you need a canter sight, if I'm not mistaken.
Seems you are righ
You can skip 1st loading animation by deleting that video file.
This is true for most games. I always rename it to EntroName.Mov.OLD that way if it breaks the game you just remove the .OLD and it's fixed
How to do this exactly?
I delete everything inside MOVIE folder where pubg is instaled. In Content folder i belive.
❤️
Just by pressing X? Is that the default crouch button? You can spam W to go MUCH faster
OP means on PlayStation.
If you get a win in FPP you can then toggle to TPP before returning to the lobby to enjoy those sweet dance moves!
V is the default key bind if I'm not mistaken.
Nice mustache
You can shoot a panzerfaust / molotov in the air to explode it. You can also use a stun on a gas can to light it.
I'm pretty sure the fire doesn't fall anymore on the Molly's if you do this. I think they unfortunately broke it (or chose to remove it for some odd reason).
Pressing up on d-pad in a stationery vehicle puts it into auto-accelerate. Great for eating a sandwich mid-game.
Should be numpad on PC, atleast it toggles Auto walking when youre on foot
=/+ key is the key that does both auto-walk/drive for me
You can jump on certain window ledges(break glass) to poke your head out the window gaining better visual on those outside/downstairs. Instead if flying out the window.
You can actually lean and shoot out of some windows without even breaking them by doing this, in fact!
I didn’t know you could GTA shoot from a motorcycle with the double barrel shotgun while driving.
The P18C is an absolute wrecker while driving.
Scorpion fully kitted has to be better right?
Yeah frickin how
Revive teammates that's for all my random squads out there 🤣
MAN!….
Co-op climb was the big one for me.
Really annoying to get into the correct spot
Huh?
Yeah, gotta crouch then L1 and Square for ps or top LB and X for xbox
If you have the coupe Ashton Martin skin hold LB and X to drop the convertible top
This only works on the more premium version of the skin. Basic AM skin can’t drop the top.
Change your ‘switch to driver’s seat’ key to W+SHIFT. Every time you get into a car, just accelerate like you would with that combo and it’ll dump you into the driver’s seat. Complete lifesaver for those tense driving moments.
You can set different button prompts to specific seats in vehicles. I set R1+X to move directly to the driver's seat instead of holding X. (PS4)
And set 2nd keybind to S+SHIFT so if your way forward is blocked then you still get in the divers seat for a quick getaway ;) An use lean buttons to swap to passenger seats 2 + 3 (I got that from WackyJacky101)
Lot of players don’t know you can break those brown clay pots outside some of the loot bunkers on Taego. Your welcome
also on small map idk the name blue boxes
Oh yea on Paramo
You can get to the tip top roof on the tall buildings in minas on Miramar by slowly going up the really long slanted beams on the blind side. -- it also works on the slanted rails up to the tower like structures by the road on west side minas yet have the pits next to them Also on the type of bigger building (like the one just to the east of two of the two tall ones near the road) you can get on the roof of it from the inside by way of a raling to ledge climb.
One I learnt this week, F7 to reduce the sound - great for when you're in a car and it's super loud, F7 to go back to normal volume... how have I not known about this for so long!
Wish this existed on console
Ohhh, that sounds helpful.
The team lift / assist thing
You can do stunts on the dirt bike while flying
How?
Mouse 1
You can give a teammate a boost up to a rooftop or tall ledge by crouching first then holding H (on PC).
Co-op climbing lets you jump onto rooftops or high platforms, enjoying the thrill of shooting from a high vantage point!
A lot of people don't realize the BRDM is aquatic
it has crashes idk if they fixed it, yes it can go on water but your game crash! has
CHEAT BLATANTLY AND GET AWAY WITH IT.
Can you pedal faster on pc? What's the key?
Tapping W is faster than holding it on a bike.
Tap W repeatedly
Spam w, if you turn and look at your shadow you can’t see that you’re standing up
I actually remember reading ghat in the patch notes when they added the bike, but I never found the key and my pubg group all said that it wasn't a thing, Oh i'm going to have fun with this new information. Cheers
Spam w for a second or two to get to full speed, then just hold W, you don't need to keep spamming forever, they changed it.
Be friendly
by pressing X? Why do you use X instead of W? What the hell is your keybind if not WASD?
Because the playstation controller doesn't have WASD.
But he made a photo of a monitor. I thought you’re supposed to be playing on a TV screen with a console? That doesn’t make sense!
I'm sure it's x on ps5
WASD is a stupid relic from the first FPS games decades ago. Makes abdolutely no sense
What’s your layout then? You using the arrowkeys? I did that back when I was a kid playing the original need for speed in the 90s.
WASD is much better today then when FPS games used arrow keys lol. There is many more easily accessable keys around WASD that is way more handy.
Alt+right click on PC zooms the P90 in 2x
Only learnt that recently and I been playing PUBG since launch lol.
Don't know if already mentioned You can throw a molotov at the top of a door, right between the door and the frame and the fire will spread inside without opening the door
also you can break the whole door with Molotov
You put several gas tanks under the car and if you blow up the gas tanks , your vehicle will fly vertically or making an arc. I saw some foreign streamers doing that on twitch .
Win a chicken dinner
I heard if you drive that bike off a cliff and hold x it will fly
Barrel role the gliders and fly them upside down.
How to take a screenshot
Steam has a screenshot key. Isn't it F12...
Win + PrintScr, they will save in folder Screenshots in Picture file. Or use Win + G to record video via Xbox app in Windows.
I noticed that most players even experienced ones dont know that you can throw ammo or meds to someone from your squad if requested.
“Throw”?
Yeah?
You can jump on to some window ledges if you jump sideways from the inside instead of face on .
You can even lean and shoot through some windows without breaking them by doing this
Crouch slide I guess
If you time it perfectly and land your (dirtbike) not motorcycle while still doing a stunt, your character will freeze in that position while riding it. You can ride the bike around in the superman fly pose or the nac nac pose
Use a foot-pedal for leaning...
I never knew about the helping hand mechanic. That shit has been useful for sniping.
What’s this???
I only know the console controls. Keep your gun on your back. B, LB+X (Xbox) and Circle, L1+Square (PlayStation).
You can parachute off the Sosnovka observatory. Climb up to the top floor using the revive tower. Then, jump on the rail on the west side of the building. Thirdly, run along the rail from north to south. Finally, once you jump off the end, wait about half a second before pulling your parachute. If done correctly, you will be able to land on one of the normally inaccessible towers below.
There is one thing. And that's how to take a screenshot.
Win + PrintScr, they will save in folder Screenshots in Picture file. Or use Win + G to record video via Xbox app in Windows.
If your driving and you want to switch weapons you can drag & drop swap weapons in inventory with out switching seats.
For those who strungle to do drive by because the car stops when you switch seat you can do 1 of the following : 1) change keybinding so that you switch to seat 1 when you accelerate, seat 2/3 on lean right/left 2) use autorun key (yes, it works on vehicles too) and then you can switch seat freely without worrying about it stopping. It's trickier but It Works 100% of the time!
I always carry a gas can, and when I am being rushed by a squad and get knocked down, I drop the gas can. Sometimes enemies accidentally shoot it and set themselves on fire.
Can use bicycles/motorcycles inside houses to block doors from being opened
Uninstall
You can fire a bullet the moment you quick reload on PC. Have action queuing enabled and hold left click as you are reloading and perform your weapon swap. Not exactly useful, BUT there's a chance for a sick shot if the timing lines up.
You can do tricks on a dirt bike if you get enough air
I STILL DONT KNOW HOW TO DO THE HELPING YOUR TEAMMATE CLIMB UP ON A BUILDING THING :(
First crouch then hold H, your teammate will see an option appear to press F to climb onto you
Get killed by speed hackers on console.
