BGMI 3.9 update introduces strategic movement


The ability for the Transformer to glide in mis-transformation, parachute into zones, and execute brief airborne bursts with teammates adds new levels of movement and strategy to the game.

Combat has also changed; Transformers are now very durable, and countering them requires new strategies. Transformers are hardly touched by standard weaponry (more than 100 rounds may be required); however, the Welding Gun (10 UC) and sticky bombs are vital weapons, one for destruction and the other for immediate mid-battle repair.
