BGMI 1.8 update: new features and modes
The 1.8 update carries new improvements and features inside the game. Interested players can find the breakdown of the update and what it brings to the table in this post. The company has also shared the update schedule for iOS and Android users. There is a slight distribution difference between each platform.
Spiderman: No Way Home Theme Mode
Krafton has introduced the long-awaited Spider-Man: No Way Home-themed content to the game with this update. This includes an exclusive Spiderman mode where players can swing between buildings to experience the Spider-Verse in BGMI. This mode will be available in maps such as Erangel and Livik.
After selecting the mode, players need to visit the sites mentioned on the map. One of these sites includes ‘Mylta Power’, where players need to fight robots and loot Spiderman-themed items. These items include a web shooter and a Spiderweb Ball. Players can use these items to climb up on tall buildings or shoot enemies with spider webs.
As for the last feature from the mode, players can revive their dead teammates. Once your teammates are eliminated from the game, reach the towers mentioned on the game map. After that, go close to the tower and tap on the Recall option to bring your teammate back to the game in the exact location.
Separated Matching
The 1.8 update will separate the ranked matching and normal matching. For example, if a player gets into ranked matchmaking, the season tier point will reflect. Similarly, if players get into a regular matching, the update will not affect their season tier points. Additionally, all the new settings will be available under the new UI design, making it easier for players to find modes inside the game.
Livik: Aftermath: list of features, default scope, and more
After the Spiderman: No Way Home collaboration, the next biggest thing in the update is the revised version of the classic Livik map. In this new update, players can look forward to a new version of the Livik map. Livik, once covered in the snow, has now been stripped of life. The terrain looks dusty, almost apocalyptic, and players can experience all this in normal matchmaking. Additionally, the map alters the normal gameplay and here are some of the features that come as default with Livik: Aftermath.
All the weapons have a scope mounted over them by default
All the players will experience less recoil through the firearms
Players can see the distance between enemies using ADS open
Players can use Ziplines across the map
Communication towers to receive eliminated players
Deploy riot shield during matches to protect yourself against aggressive squads
Firearm Rebalancing and Firearm Mechanism Adjustment
The update has adjusted the firearm balance for selected guns. For example, MG3’s recoil has just become 10 percent more intense than its previous version. The base fire rate of the weapons is also adjusted to default 660 RPM.
Additionally, the recoil time for M16A4 and MK47 has been reduced by 10 percent, and players can expect the tracer effect while firing rounds from these guns. As for the mechanism adjustments, two things have been adjusted to fit the current game. Firstly, the developers have fixed the firing direction and aim for unscoped firearms. The second thing is the bullet spread, which varied earlier by display resolution of different devices.
Classic update
While playing in classic mode, players will see more changes. These changes are visible only in the classic modes. So make sure you are playing the classic mode to experience these changes. Below is a list of things you can expect from the game after updating it to version 1.8.
Players will not be eliminated immediately after being knocked down in the water
The knocked-out player can swim to the shore even after being knocked out
Players will be able to use auto-jump when ping becomes available
The place names inside the map will be displayed in three dimensions
Automatic marking has been enabled for all the squad members inside a match
Players who use malicious behaviours like killing teammates and offensive chats will experience penalties via merit level deduction
