What is rotation and how to use it to improve the recoil control of weapons in PUBG Mobile [Maximum guide]

PUBG Mobile It is one of the most popular battle royales today. Since it was launched in March 2018 - just over two years ago - it has become the vice of many. It competes directly with other games in its category such as Fortnite and Free Fire, two titles that you have surely seen or heard at some point.

This game is not that popular for nothing. It offers amazing graphics, numerous game modes and more, as well as presenting a level of rankings by point merit, just like in other similar games. However, although it does not represent a difficult level of play at the beginning, in the lower ranks, when you pick up the pace and level up, strong opponents begin to appear with a lot of skill when it comes to killing. That is why we present this tutorial, in which we explain how to improve the control of the recoil of weapons, something vital to improve on the PUBG Mobile battlefield.

Play PUBG Mobile with the gyroscope and destroy your enemies

Before explaining how to improve the recoil control of weapons, we will detail what it is, as it is something that many players - mainly newbies - do not know.

The recoil -o recoil-, in simple terms, it is the uncontrolled movement that a weapon makes when firing bullets. Some weapons have more or less recoil than others; For example, the AKM is an assault rifle that features a lot of recoil, making it more difficult to control than the M416, one of the game's favorite weapons, as it is one of the easiest to control.

That a weapon has a lot of recoil makes it unsuitable for use with medium and long-range sights. Case that proves it is that of the MK14, the automatic with the most recoil in the game. This makes it very difficult to control with sights from 3X onwards.

Generally, el recoil tends upwards, although it can also go slightly to the sidesAs in the case of the PP19 Bizon or DP-28, weapons that also have little recoil, but tend to move very slightly horizontally, something that is more noticeable when used with long sights.

Now the way to control the main recoil is with your fingers. While an automatic or semi-automatic weapon is being fired, what you must do is move your finger down, in order to counteract the upward movement of the weapon and thus hit all or as many bullets as possible at the enemy. However, while this method is usually the most comfortable for beginners, rotation is the best ally for the control of recoil.

What is rotation?

Rotation is nothing more than the use of the mobile's gyroscope to control the recoil of the weapons. When enabled, all you have to do is move -or rotate, rather- the device downwards, imitating the function of the finger to subtract the recoil of weapons.

To activate it, you have to go to the game settings, a section that is identified with the logo of a gear in the lower right corner of the main game screen -also known as LOBBY-. Already within Configuration, riding a Basic, you have to look for the section of Rotation and enable it, as it is disabled by default.

It is usually not easy to use it at first, as custom plays an important role. It is necessary to adapt to this in order to forget the use of the finger, which is usually imprecise for hitting bullets at a distance. Nevertheless, can be used in conjunction with your finger, in order to adjust certain movements of the weapon when it is firing.

Different types of rotation sensitivity

PUBG Mobile, through its configuration section, presents four sensitivity modes, which are Low, Media, High y Customize now. These are to configure how much movement you have to do to play with the rotation.

For example, if you activate the rotation with low sensitivity, you will have to rotate the mobile more than with high sensitivity. Similarly, we recommend customizing it to your liking, something that can be done through the section Sensitivity, which is also found in Configuration. 

Once we are in Sensitivity, we must go to the last section below, which is Rotation sensitivity. In this you can adjust the percentage of the sensitivities of the camera in first and third person, and that of the sights ... I leave my own sensitivity settings in the screenshot below, in case they are useful to you.

To perfect the use of rotation in PUBG Mobile you have to practice a lot. At the beginning it is a bit difficult to adapt to the rotation by usual theme, as we already pointed out above. Ideally, head to the training ground several times and test all weapons with all sights, different targets, and at multiple ranges - short, medium, and long. You also have to practice a lot in real situations of classic games and arena matches, in order to progressively improve and put aside the use of the finger as the main method of control of the recoil.

The use of accessories also helps to significantly improve the recoil control of weapons in the game. Among these are the vertical grip and the compensator, two of the most contributing to the do not recoil, although some weapons cannot equip them. In addition to this, the positions also influence: when lying down, the recoil is much less, even more than when crouching down.

So instead of always considering shooting standing up, you can try crouching or lying down to further decrease recoil, as long as the situation allows, of course, as there are times when lying down or crouching could mean sudden death.
