How To Detect The Position Of Footsteps/Gunshots
PUBG Mobile is an exciting realistic shooting game that makes you feel as if you are stuck on that fierce battlefield.

Use a good headphone/earphone
It's necessary to have a good headphone to not ignore the enemy and combat. Besides, you can hear the sound and volume exactly. So, you can detect the location and the distance of the enemy and the gun sound. For example, the footstep sounds of the enemy on the ground and on the container or the upstairs are different. The volume will increase when the enemy is closer to you.

Put the earphones on the right side
You also need to put the earphone on the right side (left and right). You also need to increase the SFX sound to maximum volume to avoid ignoring the smallest sound that the enemy makes near you. Then, you can hear the 360-degree directional sound around you and detect the location of it.
For example, the volume of the right side decreases, and the volume of the left earphone increases if the enemy is on your left. You can also identify the footstep sound on your back. It works with the gunshot and vehicle sound in PUBG Mobile. However, it will be a deadly mistake if you put the earphones on the wrong side of your ears.

Identify the distance of the enemy
You can locate the position of the enemy shooting you by identifying the direction and the distance of the sound. If it's loud, the enemy is near you. If the gunshot sound is not loud, he's far from you. It helps you locate the gunshot sound more accurately. You should practice and gain more experience to identify the distance of the enemy.

Vertical Audio
Using the mechanism of vertical audio, you can determine the location of the enemy inside a building. It sounds different when you are on the first floor, second floor, and the top floor. Besides, players can also identify the footstep sound when the enemy is on the staircases. It's very important to locate the enemy in some high buildings or famous compounds, such as Erangel School, Sanhok Bootcamp, etc.

Range Of Sound
PUBG Mobile players can hear the jumping sound within a 50-meter diameter. Moreover, you can also hear that sound in the 40m range when the enemies are crouching or walking. The prone sound is audible in the range of 10m. Besides, the swimming sound can be heard when players are 25m underwater.
The range of gunshot depends on the type of weapons and attachments. The sound of some guns is louder, such as Mk14, Beryl M762, AKM, M24, etc. However, players can also use the suppressor to reduce the volume of the gunshot sound to unveil their position. If the players use a VSS with a pre-equipped silencer, it's hard to locate his position.
