9. Stop Sprinting!

It might sound like a basic tip, but refraining from sprinting everywhere in Battle Royale could be the difference between getting where you need to be undetected and dying a painful death.

While it's recommended that you crouch everywhere for maximum stealth coverage, the regular jogging animation in the title doesn't make you that easier to detect when you're out in the open. If you start sprinting though, the character leaves a small dust trail as they move, a key signifier that can alert enemies to your location.

So while you don't have to slow yourself to a crawl to get from point A to B, just make sure that you're only sprinting in areas that you know are clear if you don't want to paint a big red X on yourself.
