[@keepthearne]

Thanks for taking the time and patience to create such a clear and in depth video. I just started dying light 2, and felt like I was exploring too much on lvl 3, and your video made me realise what I should consider for an amazing playthrough. I hope you get more viewers and subscriptions. Dont worry about your content, it is very clear, and state of the art.

[@TedNipples]

I made a thank you community post to KeepThearne. kzbin.infoUgkx2f5gyD-fm3apmia8vHmxk3poCUBK9Ggh

Another tip that some people don’t know. For some reason all over internet no matter where you look, everywhere it WILL say that you are not able to remove or change your mods on your weapon. This is no longer get true. You can remove the mods by just simply opening the mods menu when you want to modify your weapon, hover over the mod you don’t want and hold triangle or Y on Xbox and you will dismantle the mods to add a new one. (Be aware that the removed mod will removed some durability since every time you mod a weapon it repairs that weapon if I’m not mistaken like a 20% of whatever the durability of your weapon has but you can gain it back by adding the new mod) Also, by dismantling a mod you get some resources back so is not a complete loss :D

[@TBAG]

this video is amazing for people who havent played for a while and feel overwhelmed with all the new additions to the game (me). thanks :D I subbed and I look forward to see more of your stuff ;)

so helpful. all the little details add up and make things more seemless. love this game. great content

[@TedNipples]

Thank You 😊😎😊

[@isaac80745]

I got full game on sale it’s way different from DL 1 and def was doing a PK play through first. Just confused where to put focus my skill points.

[@benboos6320]

Just bought and gonna start the game tomorrow. Probably one of the best and thorough tips and tricks video i have seen in quite some time. Kudos for the patience and not giving away the game. Subscribe button will be pressed for future videos!

[@rexedrex3835]

Thank to actually give good tips to new players so they wont to our same errors

[@paulcericola4016]

Video was a lot of help, appreciate it, just got this game for Christmas and I am so lost trying to get into it 😂

[@oroboros88]

I've logged over 1200 hrs in this and assumed I was pretty well versed with everything but some of these I genuinely never knew, I love that TC squeezes in little goodies in terms of hidden mechanics, makes discovering them feel fun. Great video.

[@oroboros88]

Also drop kick has been buffed since then, at least from what I've noticed. I can take off a quarter of a bosses health bar with a drop kick, just comes down to your crit chance and legend level I believe.

[@anoofadam351]

thank you so much for making this video. im planning to finish this game before dying light the beast. i just finished dying light 1 yesterday. cant wait.

[@TedNipples]

That is pretty good. Finishing Dying Light 1 was very difficult for me. The first 2/3 of the game is, kinda intense/scary. Up until I had a gun all the time (nearer the last 3rd of the game), I found it rather tricky.

[@LokiLamont]

You have a brilliant voice for instructional videos! Great detail, Let's get you hyped up for more youtube recommendations

[@TedNipples]

Thank you. I will admit being a bit demoralizing when I spend weeks on a video and gets very few views. It is good to know people are watching. Keeps my motivation/spirits up. 😊😊😊

[@LokiLamont]

@@TedNipples I don't make content so I have no idea. But I know that posting every day will get you higher in the algorithm, maybe you could make daily videos about your testing and info gathering in an update format, which you then put together at the end of the month into a review of all of your findings? similar to this video? Just a thought..keep on doing you!

[@vss6129]

Ngl i lowkey thought u was ai bro💀💀

[@blake7124]

bro said bro

[@pasteghost428]

No cap. Me too. No disrespect to ya boi.

[@ceaserknk6640]

Same wtf

[@brandonbishop7932]

This is by far the best video of dying light 2 tips there is hands down!!!

[@TedNipples]

Thank You 😊😊😊

[@D00BIESNACKS420]

One of the tips is to buy a microtransaction. If it wasnt for that I would have liked and subscribed

[@Kreznit]

Fr, and he brings it up twice, what a sad addition.

[@craigfarler3097]

Awesome, just what I needed for a refresher coming back to the game. Thanks 🤘

[@aaronmiller6484]

If you go to babas shop and keep sleeping on the pallet there each time go to the store and you can keep buying new stock easily stocking up on med packs,materials & mats as it refreshes each time you sleep saving you tons of time.

[@prxphet5330]

who else thinks he sounds like boris the alien from Men in Black 3 🤣great video man

[@TedNipples]

OMG, his enunciation and voice are top-tier awesome. I would love to sound like him in real life (or Patrick Stewart from Star Trek TNG) Thank you 👍👍👍

[@RidoDrago]

More often than i shouldve 😅

[@24DaniS24]

I assume that by randomly mentioning the lost armory quest and not saying why, he means that it must be completed to be able to unlock weapons?

[@dcferwerda]

Thanks for the tips, new player too.

[@namesurname7654]

Dear Sir, consider coffee tip portal or something similar ;-) once in description i would definitely use it. I can see how much effort you put into material, many thanks

[@TedNipples]

That is a good idea. I will look into the buy-me-a-coffee website. Maybe get it all set up for next month. Thank you 👍😊👍

[@kevjames21]

Just started playing this again and these are great tips,ive learnt a lot 👍

[@daewuulanos6671]

Came for the tips, stayed for the channel name

[@jamison2246]

The hold QTE sounds good but i feel like it takes too long. I commited to the PKs for the crossbow. And i think i got a bug cause i never got the crossbow. Only the bolts.

[@revruckus1]

I never have my grapple equipped. If you hit block and ju.p you will utilize the hook. Leaves room for me to keep my UV flash equipped at all times.

[@dekeaustin]

Fantastic Video 👏... Thanks M8🎉🎉🎉

[@vozh_voice]

great video! Liked and subscribed)

[@pidgy8927]

What are these finishers you can do now all about btw? Seems like they regen some stamina

[@TedNipples]

When you knock an enemy's stamina down far enough, a button prompt comes up that allows you to do a finisher. I didn't really cover them because by the middle of the game, it is just quicker to bash or shoot an enemy than it is to finish them.

[@21dominikwrobel21]

After perform finisher you got max stamina for few seconds that's why he flash.

[@RidoDrago]

Yes, you get some stamina back plus you stagger enemies around your finisher target. You dont get max stamina back, just a portion but that way you can swing almost indefinetly since you get most of the stamina back that you used on the enemy to prompt a finisher.

[@Jonathan-akaREAPER]

Thank you for this!!!!!

[@OGdubi]

+1 sub thank you for doing this!

[@AshBhang2010]

Thankyou for your Awesome content. Have come back to play again. Subbed & Liked 🧟 🧟‍♂ 🧟‍♀

[@Snakester069]

Sorry you don't need to wait 30 mins to use stores just sleep til day time and it resets also

[@fimurr]

Wait so if im understanding correctly, i can repair weapons infinitely?

[@TedNipples]

Yes, the game had a bunch of changes, so now you can pick a weapon and keep repairing it. And, you can switch out upgrades for it too.

[@fimurr]

@TedNipples nice thanks for the help

[@melvlowe1566]

Sorry did you say consider a micro transaction 😭😭

[@pablojoelpitton6921]

Thanks

[@williamrobinson6055]

Good stuff, very informative

[@ryan-dragon]

24:03 That is a lot of Quickfire Tips

[@Kdjrodjr9]

22:01 i just find them in the crates

[@e09271]

Thanks alot :)

[@jameshomister5158]

Nice video

[@zawikss]

Thx for the tut

[@RoyaltyDesires]

There’s no way a tip is to BUY an item. 😂 6:34

[@ryan-dragon]

I was wondering if the electric device was worth buying. I read that it upgrades automatically as you level up. Will probably wait for a discount day.

[@Ash_The_Great]

@@ryan-dragon I was wondering that too ☺

[@MrChocobit]

I bought all items at the beginning on level 1 today. Problem? Muahahahah

[@TedNipples]

😎😎😎

[@Pittyas]

a lot more exist. but your did well

[@TedNipples]

I did use the grapplehook-wall-run exploit to get some of my video shots, but I never tried the infinite shop bug. I never tried the infinite shop bug. I tried the bash-the-door exploit but never got it to work.

[@Pittyas]

@@TedNipples i i wounder how ppl are play this game over a long period without this bug. If the bug still exist. Great game. If not. Im not happy xD glad i have a lot old ressources

[@jacoobalajmi4957]

شكرا لك

[@sienna-gc4hd]

The game is super hard at night unless you dup

[@Malikk-fgc]

The night really isn’t hard I think it’s just a skill issue 😂

[@FreezingNick]

​@Malikk-fgc its only hard on nightmare mode on a new save

[@MayDawney]

If you are talking about the early game, just upgrade the throwing knife to full before all else. Kills Voletiles in two shots and makes farming for money (thus gear) super easy. Also means you can run around pretty easily.

[@Guiltless765]

Seems every time they "improve" the game it just messes it up worse.

[@dwirtz0116]

I thought I was going to play Dying Light 2. Realized they decided to spawn armored virals 3 at a time for literally leaving a safe zone. The game is unplayable at the moment. Hope it gets fixed. 😮😢

[@Skyligh86]

Play "Without event".

[@Stay_Zephyr]

Ur in the event dude

[@21dominikwrobel21]

A clothing farming method is good at early/mid game. Later when you rly need op clotches go open Christmas big present and stolen present.

[@lonejohnwolf]

Seriously? Those goons that have BROKEN hitboxes on their swings, hitboxes that reach like a fifth farther than the actual weapon swing, can just be DUCKED UNDER?! Bruh that's actually so stupid, that makes no sense AT ALL!

[@Scralkiks]

Wait what so you have to buy end game guns? With real money? Stupid

[@TedNipples]

There are a few for real money. All the others you have to earn with in-game coins that you earn through doing bounties and stuff.
