High ping or FPS drops are one of the most annoying issues while playing online shooting games. Ping in online video games refers to latency or time taken by your internet connection to register an action into the game’s server.
Whether it is PUBG Mobile or any other battle royale game, low ping in the match can significantly affect your gameplay experience and lead you to the victory. Whereas, a high latency induces network lag while playing PUBG Mobile.
If you’re the one who is also tired of network lag during gameplay, then here are the top 5 ways for you to fix high ping in PUBG Mobile.
Use a WiFi connection
While playing PUBG Mobile, internet speed plays a vital role in delivering stable and low ping. It’s always recommended to use a strong WiFi connection with an internet speed of at least 10Mbps instead of using mobile data.
Also, check your internet speed connection and check if the results are up to mark or not. Use any online speed tester tool like SpeedTest.net to perform an internet speed test. Moreover, the tool is also useful for ping measurement to your nearest server. Pings less than 50ms are ideal for playing PUBG Mobile online.
Turn off Auto Sync
Most of the time, Auto-Sync is the real culprit behind the high latency issue in PUBG Mobile. The Auto Sync service consumes a lot of internet bandwidth speed to keep your apps data updated. Thus, it’s strongly suggested to turn off the Auto Sync option unless you want to synchronize your phone’s data automatically.
Here are the steps to disable Auto Sync feature:
- Open the Settings app on your Android phone.
- Scroll down and tap on the ‘Accounts & sync‘ option.
- Disable the Auto Sync option by clicking on it.
Choose the closest server
It’s not a secret that a distant PUBG Mobile server can cause high ping issues in the game. It’s essential to choose the nearest server to your location in order to get the lowest ping. For example, Asian players will get the lowest ping the PUBG Mobile’s Asia server. Navigate to the map selection menu and click on the list of servers to choose the most suitable one as per your region.
Use Game Booster
Nowadays, most smartphones come with a pre-installed game booster application to enhance your device’s performance while gaming. While playing PUBG Mobile, enable the Game Booster feature to get high frame rates and reduce the network lag. Moreover, it also restricts the background activity to allocate full internet bandwidth to the game.
Repair PUBG Mobile
If any of the above methods couldn’t resolve your issue then repair the game itself to restore the corrupted and missing files. Hit the ‘Repair‘ button located at the login page of PUBG Mobile.
