Alright, let's dive deep into keeping your iPad view locked in BGMI (Battlegrounds Mobile India)! It's a common desire for players who've found their perfect perspective and want to maintain it consistently. This comprehensive guide will walk you through various methods and considerations.
Step 1: Finding Your Ideal Perspective - Let's Get Comfortable!
Before we even think about locking the view, the most crucial step is finding that sweet spot. What feels most natural and gives you the best field of vision? Take your time here; this is the foundation of your locked perspective.
- Experiment in Different Scenarios: Don't just stick to the training grounds. Play a few classic matches or TDM rounds. Rotate your view frequently while moving, looting, and engaging in combat. Pay attention to what feels comfortable for:
- Spotting enemies at a distance.
- Close-quarters combat and tracking movement.
- Navigating through buildings and tight spaces.
- Driving vehicles and scanning your surroundings.
- Adjusting Field of View (FOV): BGMI offers an FOV setting. Higher FOV allows you to see more around you, while a lower FOV can make distant targets appear larger. Experiment with different FOV settings in the game's graphics options to see what suits your playstyle and iPad screen size.
- Consider Your Grip and Device Orientation: How you hold your iPad can subtly influence your natural viewing angle. Play around with different grips and see how they affect your in-game perspective. Do you prefer landscape mode with buttons on the top or bottom?
Once you have a good sense of your preferred view, let's move on to the methods for trying to maintain it. Keep in mind that BGMI doesn't have a direct "lock view" feature, so these methods are workarounds and habits you'll need to develop.
Step 2: Mastering the Three-Finger Swipe (and Avoiding It!)
One of the most common ways players unintentionally change their view is through accidental three-finger swipes, which often trigger the iPad's multitasking gestures. While useful for other tasks, it can be frustrating in the heat of battle.
- Disabling Multitasking Gestures: This is a critical step for many players. By turning off these gestures, you significantly reduce the chances of accidentally swiping and changing your BGMI view.
- Navigate to your iPad's Settings app.
- Scroll down and tap on General.
- Select Gestures.
- Toggle off Multitasking Gestures.
- Developing Muscle Memory: Even with gestures disabled, try to be mindful of how your fingers move across the screen. Avoid broad, sweeping three-finger movements unless you intentionally want to access the iPad's controls.
Step 3: Fine-Tuning Your Control Layout
Your control layout plays a significant role in how naturally you interact with the game and maintain your desired view.
- Positioning Essential Controls: Ensure that your frequently used controls (like movement joystick, fire buttons, scope buttons) are positioned comfortably and don't require you to make large hand movements that could inadvertently shift your view.
- Adjusting Sensitivity Settings: Sensitivity settings for camera movement (ADS sensitivity, gyroscope sensitivity, TPP and FPP sensitivity) directly impact how easily your view changes.
- Spend time in the training grounds fine-tuning these settings. Start with lower sensitivities and gradually increase them until you find a balance between precision and quick turning.
- Pay attention to the differences between aiming down sights (ADS) and free-look movement. Adjust them independently to your preference.
- If you use the gyroscope, calibrate it properly and adjust its sensitivity to complement your finger movements.
- Utilizing the "Reset Camera" Function: BGMI has a "Reset Camera" button (often a small eye icon). Make sure this button is placed in an easily accessible location on your screen. If your view gets accidentally shifted, a quick tap on this button will usually bring it back to your default forward-facing perspective.
Step 4: Developing Consistent Habits and Muscle Memory
Ultimately, maintaining a consistent view in BGMI on your iPad boils down to developing good habits and training your muscle memory.
- Consistent Finger Placement: Try to keep your fingers in consistent positions on the screen while playing. This will help you avoid accidental swipes or touches that could change your view.
- Practice Deliberately: During practice sessions, consciously focus on maintaining your desired view while performing various actions like moving, aiming, and shooting.
- Short, Controlled Movements: When you do need to adjust your view, try to make short, controlled movements rather than large, sweeping gestures.
- Review Your Gameplay: If you frequently find your view shifting unintentionally, record some of your gameplay and analyze your finger movements to identify potential causes.
Step 5: Considering External Accessories (Optional)
While not strictly necessary, certain accessories can indirectly help with maintaining a stable view.
- Gaming Finger Sleeves: These can provide better grip and reduce friction on the screen, potentially leading to more controlled movements and fewer accidental view shifts.
- iPad Stands or Grips: A stable stand or ergonomic grip can help you hold your iPad more comfortably and consistently, reducing the likelihood of accidental view adjustments due to awkward hand positions.
