BGMI 4.1 brings a strong set of combat updates that change how every match feels. The game is more fast, more tactical and rewards players who think quickly. This update focuses on weapon balance, clear audio, better visuals and new map features that change the fight flow.
BGMI 4.1 Combat Changes: AR And Shotgun Damage Tweak Details
A Roaming Loot Truck Across the Map
One of the biggest changes is the moving loot truck. It drives around the map and drops top-tier items once you destroy it. This gives players a new moving objective and creates sudden fight zones wherever it appears.
Erangel Gets a New Spot
The small flooded area between Rozhok and Ruins has turned into the Boatyard. This place is now a strong loot area. You can also find wild berries here that give instant health and energy. It makes early fights more interesting and risky.
Gun Damage Adjustments
The update brings fresh balance changes to ARs and shotguns. The idea is to keep fights fair while making gunplay more skill-based.
Shotgun Damage:
S12K: Head 295, Chest 206
S187: Head 320, Chest 224
DBS: Head 278, Chest 203
S686: Head 322, Chest 225
M1014: Head 320, Chest 224
NS200: Head 348, Chest 244
AR Damage:
M416: Head 80 to 93, Chest 34 to 40
ASM: Head 78 to 91, Chest 34 to 39
SCAR–L: Head 83 to 95, Chest 36 to 41
AUG: Head 78 to 93, Chest 34 to 40
These tweaks make short-range fights more balanced and long-range fights more focused on accuracy instead of raw power.
Snipers Become More Deadly
Some sniper rifles now fire faster, which makes long-range battles more intense. You can follow up your first shot quicker, giving you a better chance to finish your target.
Bullet Speed Change
Bullets slow down slightly at long distances. This means you must judge your shots more carefully. It gives long-range fights more skill, and rewards players who can read movement.
New Hipfire Crosshair
A new hipfire crosshair option is added. You can adjust it in the settings to match your comfort. This helps close-range players lock onto targets faster.
Better Combat Feel
The developers have polished the overall battle feel:
- Reload bar on weapons
- Clear low-ammo alerts
- Better bullet sound effects
- Sharper scope animation
- Improved direction audio
These upgrades help you react quicker and stay aware of every move around you.
