With the release of the latest update, PUBG developers introduced a new option in the matchmaking section to differentiate the playing styles of various players. Those who don't have any squad and love to play randomly in the game can now choose the playing style of random players.

As one can see in the image above, two options are available to choose from in the 'Drop tactic' section. When a player selects 'Hot drops', they'll be matched with other players who like to be dropped in the crowded areas of the PUBG game. In the 'Slow and Steady' option, players are matched with passive players who don't want to engage much in the battlefield.

In order to tweak the Drop tactic, open the 'map selection' page and then click on the 'settings' button located on the bottom left of the screen.

The 'Role' tag is another new addition in the latest PUBG Mobile 0.18.0 update. Tencent Games has now made easier for the players to analyse the performances of other players.

Whenever a match would end, specific tags would be shown against the names of players. These tags would help players decide suitable in-game roles for their teammates. For instance, if anyone takes a bunch of sniper kills in the match, the game assigns him/her a tag related to the 'Sniper' keyword.

PUBG Mobile was probably aware of the long-pending 'requests' list in the game. The action of deleting or accepting all these requests was a time-consuming process.

To manage the friend list, the developers have now introduced two new options: 'Ignore all' and 'Accept all' in a player's friend list manager. These two options would allow actions to be performed on all pending requests at one go.
