Shit bruh I'm on everyday clapping around the dz, what you playing on?

[@tvvnation8731]

I’m on everyday also I just got the game so kinda watching your vids for guides

[@kingreef2160]

Do all the exotics can be obtain by just playing through the games?

[@mtjoleolkaelle]

NothingButSkillz bro I just got the game about 1 month and your videos have been great to use as a guide, I’m JosephsmilIng1 on ps4 I would love to play with you and be on your team .

[@wylhi3955]

NothingButSkillz ngl i hate toggle to sprint and i dont think it would change gameplay but yea

[@abrahamquintanilla6053]

neat, was always wondering why everyone’s character was an olympic track runner.

[@NothingButSkillz]

lmao

[@papurrurru]

true man, I've been playing division 2 from day 1 didn't know I was missing on something so important as field of view

[@ahmadyousif7177]

Nice but does it really effect your acual speed in the game or it's just visual effects

[@papurrurru]

@@ahmadyousif7177 it's probably just visual, like when driving a car if you look to the front it doesn't seems to go too fast but if you look at trees to the side it will look like you're going much faster

[@Tantalus010]

@@ahmadyousif7177 It's just visual. You look like you're going faster because the camera's view is wider and therefore slightly stretched. It's similar to what's known as the Starfield Illusion.

[@barr3h]

Best change of setting for me was disabling the animation when you switch to your special weapon. Saves just a little time when you're in a fight and need to use it without all the fancy switching 😋

[@toilet5217]

u mean the UI animation? disabling that doesnt affect the switch speed

[@BraveStars]

@@toilet5217 No he means the orange screen glow that appears when you switch to your special weapon - Grenade/Rocket launcher, Minigun etc.

[@vendetacos]

How?

[@jeffreysmith7377]

You forgot "turn off vibration" on controller for console player's. One of the best things you can do. Feels strange at first, but it really improves your aim.

[@anvilofcrom1]

And it helps with battery life too.

[@BigJay773]

@@anvilofcrom1 🤣😂👍🏾

[@666waystodieforlove]

I turn off to save on batteries too.

[@vexile12]

I have it turned off because the vibrations make it difficult to aim and with the nerve damage in my hand its hard enough to play the game without the vibrations let alone with it

[@joseyero297]

I turn it off so the noise don’t wake up my babies 😂😂

[@aceman67]

The mouse sensitivity settings are personal preference and hardware dependant. No two mice are the same, and not everyone can handle high sensitivity.

[@Tantalus010]

Virtually all of this is personal preference. But, then, that's what most settings are for.

[@ITMann]

Very true, it all depends on hardware which is personal and differs for each person. But yes everyone should make some adjustments to get the best out of the game. However if you adjust to the limits then you will become and look like an Olympic sprinter running with an 80lb kit ! Sometimes it spoils immersion, and also be wary of the fish eyed look when adjusting field of view. It will always be a mix of settings that increases game playability but looks “normal” and creates a sense of immersion.

[@Dr.Failtastic]

0:40 I mean, well, he has like 80 pounds worth of gear on him, I don't expect him to be racing Usain Bolt. I get what you mean though makes the game feel quicker, less generally boring feeling.

[@RBDubison]

80 alone he has wayyyy more

[@markvanderbur5521]

Hey, I just wanted to thank you for putting on these videos. They’re pretty educational and I am starting division two all over again so here we go.

[@a.j.murphy8305]

Recently came back to Div 2 , also a Div 1 player. Of these tips i had 6 of 11 and i agreed with most of your recommendations. I liked you commentary - clear - concise - and the screen was clear about where the various options were and why in your opinion someone might consider this change. Very well delivered, much appreciated.

[@IAMDJEPIC]

Man, I'm so glad I found this video. Had division for a while but haven't really learned how to be great at it yet

[@The_SmokeHut]

NothingButSkillz I watch a ton of your info about the Division & Division 2, love how you explain and show everything for us players that don't have alot or as much time to play. Without a doubt your videos make me a better player. Appreciate what you do..✌🏻

[@NothingButSkillz]

glad you enjoy it

[@Dadofgirl]

Some damn good tips. Thanks, as a new player they really helped.

Hey Skillz...just bought the Warlords DLC. Your game settings video made the game so much better.

[@butterflymage5623]

Speaking of settings. I always wanted one of you guys to do play throughs with absolutely no HUD. I started doing that in D1, and have never had it on for D2. O It definitely adds a challenge as well as makes communication and build diversity in group play a must. You should try it out and do a vid on it sometime

[@muthemaori5899]

I don't know of any channels that play with no mini map.

[@LR0278]

Not sure if its good for everybody, but I like holding X(on PS4) to enter cover. useful for those times you just want to dive out of the way but accidentally go into cover. I got use to it pretty fast.

[@NothingButSkillz]

The long press to enter cover? It’s a good option

[@Herringboner]

@@NothingButSkillz Also remember that skill where you would do a cover to cover in division one and receive a heal? That was super nice. I think it was a skill on knee pads i can't recall right now. I still do this to this day.

[@LR0278]

@@Herringboner There is in Division 2, just can't recall where I saw it. I think it's a holstered ability.

[@oerwout10]

Just keep in mind that increasing FOV doesn't actually make you faster. it just looks like it because of the stretching.

[@seffers4788]

I was like holy shit do people actually still believe this shit in 2020 lmao

[@RBDubison]

Awesome video just getting back into The Division 2 and really needed this!

[@williamdelforce2517]

i bought the warlords of new york dlc i forgot how much i love this game the excitement when you grind for something and get it it's amazing i also got the go bag when i was getting chest for my chatter box which was epic

[@doffroader]

@NothingButSkillz; bro, I'm a player on PS4 Pro, and these changes really improved my gameplay experience. Keep the awesome videos coming, bro. I'll be watching. 😁👍

[@BasedDad35]

7/10 of these are default settings lol. But yes still a nice video

[@dzoui3410]

For me, the only default settings I needed to change was the sensitivity, FOV and FOVWA. All the other settings are default to what you advise. Thanks for the info.

[@Shikaku11373]

This is amazingly helpful thank you for making this video.

[@danielwhitworth1769]

Awesome vid man I’m starting today 😎

[@randallcromer66]

I just got back into playing after being away for a while and this video really helped with some of the new features that are in the game. Thank's for the information and for keeping us updated on what's happening with the game. ✊🙂👍

[@spacemanjupiter]

Thanks for this. I'm usually very picky about going through every damn setting in options, in every game, but I didn't for this game for some reason. Some of these are pretty important. Just started playing this game today.

[@eldenjr]

I’ve made of couple these changes. Mainly the aim sensitivity and the movement around corners. The auto sprint, I’m going to try. But I don’t spend a bunch of time sprinting. I’ll see how it works.

[@stephenjcam]

Dude these settings have changed my whole experience, thanks so much!

I know this video is old but thank you a lot man even the enemy look more bigger I can see better and it looks nice and wide I can see the enemies on the side thanks again man

[@entfisher]

Thank You!!! So much better!!! Never thought to check the settings like this.

[@dylancarroll487]

I really appreciate this because I had these all set but if I'm not mistaken they get reset after updates. Since coming back I've noticed many of the issues you brought up such sticking to cover, slow running, and poor FOV. A quick edit. After playing for 5 minutes with the proper settings it's like a new game. Thank you so much.🙏

[@MRGarcia1983]

Tnk u for the time to make this video u made my game experience better

[@fluffyfeetbmf]

This was great, the running an jumping over something instead of getting into cover was annoying. Thanks for another great video.

YES!!! thank you i'm glad i'm not the only one using these settings

[@ramman411970]

Thanks for share these valuable tips, your channel is definitely one on best resources for Division 2 game play. Keep up the good work.

[@666waystodieforlove]

I also like adding in player skills. This way you see what your teammates are running for skills.

[@robertskr8507]

Fantastic! Thank you from a returning player.

[@kuyaaids]

The toggle to run is a big help, my older mech keyboard's shift died due to an old game not having that option, switch gave way after a year. Saves constantly holding it down.

[@MrDubs]

Think this video was great. Some of the settings the majority consensus would be 'need to change', but I think this video does a great job at making one aware of each of these settings. So don't necessarily take it verbatim. Really only one I found to disagree with and it was toggle-to-sprint: 2:14 - Subjective really. Not a 'Must change'. On PC, toggle to sprint gets dicey if you are doing a lot of stop-and-go. Since you've got your pinky on shift anyways, sprinting is far more responsive in hold-to-sprint. the only caveat would be if you were running marathons.. but even then, I wonder if auto run would be a better solution. I don't seem to sprint with auto-run, so I'm not sure if those two settings play into each other. 3:18 - If you like the concept of parkour mode, keep in mind that you can have the same satisfaction by holding down your vault button as you approach obstacles and your character will seamlessly vault.

[@spike30001]

Best setting in Division 2 is Quit Game and then uninstall it. I wasted way too much time in the pointless grind of a game. They try so hard to attract new players that they forget the ones who were there in the beginning, and make so many changes. That basically you wasted months of grind for no reason. I will never play it again.

[@darksecter1]

Great video bro applying all these right now 👌🔥

[@MatlasDI]

One setting you didn't touch on but I see you have enabled is the 180 turn and run on left stick press while holding down. I think it was default in division 1, but I literally just realized they had it the other day as a setting in 2. I based a lot of tactical gameplay off it in division one and it seems to work almost as good in 2, or I've gotten a little rusty with it lol (ie quick turn and then hold the aim button almost simultaneously and you get a stupid fast switch to aiming behind you, or combine with cover or parkour and you can quickly wind up in a different area of cover) I used to have one of the elite paddles set to run so I could switch off with it quickly, but cant for the life of me remember how it all felt seamless anymore. Lol All great tips as always, man!

[@ross.newman2716]

Listen... this info helps my game tremendously… Thanks bro…🙏🏾❤️✌🏾😃

[@briancrooks5982]

One of the best is turning off sticky cover when you combat role.....can’t count the times I’ve been killed because I was evading and got stuck to cover, especially in tight spaces. Turned it off and I’m sooooo much happier

[@Aberration79]

Ahhh you’re a legend. Cheers mate. Miles better. So much better

[@buckaroobill3077]

yo, that field of view increase helped so much thanks.

[@AaronMichaelLong]

Pulling out the FOV has trade-offs, FYI. It makes the enemies you're aiming at smaller on your screen, so landing headshots might prove more difficult.

[@NothingButSkillz]

Yes you have to find the setting that fits your play style

[@rileyxsko]

I set main FOV to 20 and aim FOV at like 2.

[@NothingButSkillz]

@@rileyxsko see randy gets it

Thanks man, this really helped.

[@stevensirrell517]

I'm really surprised you didn't know that there already is a skill cancel in the game. While holding your skill you press 'weapon swap' and it puts it away. You don't need to slow yourself down by having the aim off skill option on.
