Things I Wish I Knew Earlier In Horizon Forbidden West (Tips & Tricks)

another option that is crucial is to turn pickup animation off. This lets you pickup things like berries and plants on the fly without having to stop. Makes the game so much better

If you dodge 3 times in a row, Aloy will stumble for a second, so only dodge twice if you can. You only need like a 1 second break after 2 dodges to reset the counter

[@nekogod]

@Ching Vang That's precisely why they did it, rolling is faster than sprinting so in the first game speedrunners would roll everywhere, apparently the devs took notice lol.

Great tips. Man.. They really crushed this sequel. I mean - The first game was excellent, leaving big boots to fill. A Franchise actually learned, grew, and launched a finished product...... Surprisingly this is a rarity nowadays

[@kevin1873]

It's extremely rare and almost non-existent. This is definitely the best sequel to any game I've ever played.

[@ryancbarrett96]

I don't feel that way at all. The game is incredibly buggy. Tons of clipping, falling through objects, no anti aliasing, worse terrain traveling while mounted than the first game and horrible camera system at times compared to the first game. Being able to fly was very cool, but they introduced it so late that it was almost and afterthought. And this is still after all three patches. I'm still getting random black screen flashing which the last one was supposed to fix.

[@TommyAmazing]

@@ryancbarrett96 I enjoyed the game but agree, a good portion of the design left me feeling unsatisfied. They added unnecessary complexity throughout and didn’t give you enough playtime for the payoff. I finished the main storyline with about half of it completed. There were so many skills that I still don’t know what most of them do or how to use them. I kept falling into a void and dying when leaving Gaia’s room at the base. One time I tried gliding and it just carried me through the void until I hit the edge of the map and died. Then the game kept freezing in the loading screen so I had to load an earlier save point to keep playing. It wasn’t that it was a bad game as much as it felt like it was abruptly cut short in its development. Maybe they cut corners to beat GoW and Elden Ring to market. If so, it wasn’t worth it because people were waiting for this game regardless of the others.

[@CyJobes]

Yes, great game. As for being a finished product... that's because UbiSoft didn't have anything to do with it.

[@vicentesalasii1480]

Another thing that comes in handy is to set the Weapon Wheel Slowdown to "Slowest" from within General Settings. It gives you slightly more time to scroll between weapons mid-combat, especially when your wheel gets really full of weapons.

[@WheeledHamster]

What the hell did they do with that weapon wheel? That shit looks busy as hell? Don't they have a separate toggle for different ammo types? Why the hell all the crap on the main wheel?

[@vicentesalasii1480]

@@WheeledHamster Quick Swap can be accessed by tapping L1 between a couple of your last equipped weapons. As far as ammo type quick swapping, I don't think so.

Some helpful tips in the video and in the comments! After scanning a machine you can highlight the part you want to “farm”. Also, if the part is from a “job” it’ll be marked with a quest diamond in the focus menu so you don’t have to remember the part name your looking for or where it is on the machine.

[@SanitisedAnarchy]

Valor surge: Powershot lvl 3 in the Hunter skill tree (ridiculous damage and doesn't consume ammo for 5 shots) + Nora Thunder Armor (passive stealth ranged shot skill+2) from the Arena vendor. Combine that with stealth damage +25% coils and any decent Sharpshot bow (Forgefall maxed out being the best) is amazing.

[@DKigid]

Missed the best settings option! Turn off the "Gathering Animation" let's you pick things up without stopping. Waaayyy easier to collect materials and a life saver for tough fights

[@Ursusvandraco]

Stealth-Player here: for me, the two Valor surges from the infiltration tree where the only ones I needed and use through the game. With the stealth cover I could sneak up to any enemy (even kill multiple ones one after another on stage 3) , and with the electrocute (stage 3) I was able to kill 2-3 mounts plus their riders and one champion at once. So even if stealth failed, run around, let them gather close together and kill them of at once As for the headhunts with sniping bow, aiming for the head still made a one-shot kill on the enemy archers, for most of the others, it was enough to sneak up and kill them from behind. at last resort, one smoke bomb for distraction and into hiding and again. Worked for me even on the higher difficulties

[@brianegendorf2023]

The biggest use of the fast travel packs in this game, is a way to get out of areas you get trapped in. I have been trapped under trees where the branches keep you from leaving.. and there is no way to get out from under the tree. The Fast Travel pack saved me from being stuck there forever.

Interesting. Always go through the settings before I start a game. I already had all of those features enabled right at the beginning of the game. You also want to turn on always run for Aloy and your mount as well. This makes getting around quicker and it will really help with the mount run always on when doing the races as well because it ultimately sucks having to smash that X button constantly to get up to speed. Thank you for the upload because these tips and tricks really do help.

Thanks for the video, very helpful! 1 new tip to add in which was just added in recent patch is the ability to make picking up anything instant (no stupid stopping to bend over animation) which can be found in the settings now!!!

You can knock multiple arrows into multiple bows before a battle, to have a big amount of burst at the beginning of a fight.

[@TonkarzOfSolSystem]

This is especially useful for quickly getting an elemental effect onto an enemy.

[@vanntooot]

This game just absolutely floored all expectations and then some. So much so that for all its perfection, the only gripe I have is that I wish they made it so you could switch Valor Surges in real time instead of having to stick with one or dive into the skill tree just to change it. If they could give us that, combat would just be God-tier

[@chrisperry4014]

I mean the game pauses fully when you go into menu so it doesn’t really affect the flow of combat since you still have to build up valor. At any point you are hiding to reset the aggro or whatnot you can jump in for two seconds and swap.

[@crimsonvoo7505]

I think it would be really cool if the 3rd one was set on far zenith.

[@johnnykat21]

I like to change the setting that allows longer focus( slows time when pressing L3) to help get a more accurate shots.

[@jonbox4511]

Something they don’t tell you is apex machines spawn at night so time skips are helpful for farming spec parts as well

[@Creshex8]

Except for those stupid fireclaws…. Good grief I’m so sick of only fighting Apex models of those…. They have an absurd amount of health and trying not to damage their giant sac can be tricky in such a long fight.

@@Creshex8 I know this is 4 months old, but I recommend turning on the Story difficulty when you're farming those guys for parts

[@Creshex8]

@@antylucka Oh that’s not necessary. Ever since gyro aim became a thing, I purposely crank up the difficulty so I feel like I earn every step of progress. Reading my comment after a few months, what I recall is the Apex versions spawn ridiculously more than the regular ones. And the regular ones are really a cinch to pop. I just don’t know why the Apex ones had such a higher spawn rate… they definitely didn’t just spawn at night for me. Maybe it was the difficulty.

I agree this is a great game and a good follow-up to Zero Dawn. I love the customization and the different skill sets which can define different ways of playing. I don’t mind the animations at all - they are part of the amazing world. And while it’s cool to ride a machine, I would rather walk or run now and then, to see the world that has been prepared. Games like this - Oblivion, Skyrim, even the Fallout series - are full of wonder and ways to explore. I rejoice in that in all its various details.

[@johnlouie9594]

Some tips Stuff that I’d thought I’d bring up is that I think the Nora thunder warrior is a lot more effective. I just prefer range fighting over melee, especially for machines. You can also customize the difficulty. Which you can change the damage taken from easy to very hard. And change enemy health the same way. I usually play normal damage and very hard health just cause I like when fights are longer. Jumping while aiming also very slightly will slow down time, it’s not as helpful as it was in the first game but hey it’s still there.

[@davemerritt5949]

I literally hate the climbing haha, I've lost count of the amount of times Aloy has either fallen, jumped the wrong way or just completely missed where I clearly want her to go. For such a modern game, the movement is clunky af

[@tomboychick]

@@davemerritt5949It's the only complaint I have about the game. The number of times Aloy wouldn't climb up a rock face, despite the Focus highlighting that she can, was beyond frustrating. If you then move back down or sideways, just fractionally, then return to the exact same spot you were in seconds before, Aloy continues to climb, no problem. The other really annoying thing about climbing is that Aloy doesn't always jump up/across a gap. Again, moving fractionally away & then back to the same spot again, Aloy will jump up/across, no problem.

The most important setting to turn on for me personally was the gyro aiming. It might take a bit to get used to but it's a game changer when trying to shot individual components. Also, since they patched it in: turning of the pick up animation is great.

[@Creshex8]

It’s the only reason right now I’m playing this on the PS5. This is the most fun I’ve ever had in a game. Hard mode, gyro aiming, turn aim assist off. I can shoot birds out of the air and hit crazy long range shots, like picking off the restraining bolts from behemoths holding their giant drum. All done without any aim assist. Unfortunately, looks like this may be the last AAA game for awhile that has it on the PS5. I’ll probably get a Nexus Xim and play fps games on the Xbox from then on. Ironic the system with the best gyro will also be the only system you can’t use the gyro for most games. Just pathetic, Sony.

[@VladTaltos01]

@@Creshex8 why do you think this will be the last one for a while? And isn't it more an issue of developers not implementing a feature? Sony screws up a lot but besides their own titles it's not on them to implement gyro aiming. 😅

[@Creshex8]

@@VladTaltos01 Sony wouldn’t even support their own Move. It was supported for Infamous 2 and Killzone 2. But in the next killzone and Infamous… gone! Sony has had gyro since the PlayStation 3. And they keep putting gyros in their controllers. You think they really have no part in the lack of gyro support? It was their idea to make it part of their controllers, do you really think it wasn’t their job to encourage developers to use it or try it? Nintendo has a constantly growing gyro library. I had so much fun playing Overwatch on Switch, I’d love to play it on a more powerful system… but nothing… a gyro game where the implementation work HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE on a certain game can’t have it implemented on a different and more powerful system. Incredible and pathetic. I follow gyro news very frequently, and Forbidden West is still one of the only big AAA games with gyro. They implemented it in a grotesque manner on RE 8, where one stick is disabled, and makes the game nearly unplayable. THAT has still not even been fixed. I hope I’m wrong, I really thought Forbidden West was going to open up the floodgates for many more gyro games, but at this point, I can only hope I’m wrong about my gut feeling that it may be the last title for a long while.

I got the 1st new console I could find when the current gen came out and that was an XSX but always intended to get PS5 but I’ve only just finally bought one. I can see why everyone loves this game. Very beautiful and well made. But even though it’s generally subjective I sort of can’t believe the voice of Eloy. Eloi? Our protagonist. She is 50% breath! “HHHHHH I’ll have to find another way up HHHHHHHH” “HHHHHHHHH it’s going to be difficult HHHH but I don’t have a choice HHHHHHHH” It’s kind of terrible and I can’t believe not many people had any problem with it! Spectacularly not good IMO. But anyway it hasn’t stopped me from playing so I needed this video and appreciate your clarity and precision in your presentation. Nice work👍

You can customize your button layout although there are parts of the game it can interfere with .. you can just switch lay out to default complete the part then switch back to coustome lay out

[@justinc.242]

Everyone always says that something exists but doesn't explain where to find it, can you please elaborate?

[@miguelfigueroa5659]

@@justinc.242 so there are parts of the game that have pre determined button prompts .. these promps don't show up as conflicts when customizing your button lay out ... if you run into this simply go back into controls and switch from custom. To default lay out complete the task then if you want switch back to the custom layout option

I’ve been playing this game since it’s been released and I agree with so much stuff, even working through villages with my weapon, I don’t like. But learnt so much, thanks 🙏

In response to the comment by dusbus2384, there is also an auto pickup option since the burning shores came out. If you don’t have the burning shores, I believe it will still work. It doesn’t add items to your stash though, just if you have room in the inventory

[@mothylaced]

ty for the tips! im only around 12-13% into the game right now and i might consider 100% it !

[@pippofranco879]

I just got the platinum yesterday and I'm moving on to other games, so this is the perfect time to watch this Kappa

[@504cool]

Thanks for the video tons of useful tips for a beginner! Am I missing something or does Tripple Notch not save your loaded arrows when switching weapons then switching back?

[@Valjao67]

Thank you very much. I miss most of your tips but as i am only after Latopolis, i don’t have to start over to use all that

[@CodeSe77en]

Question - This game allows you to reset your skill points. When you press the button to reset them, does it reset all of them instantly, or does it let you pick and choose the ones you want to reset? I haven't tried it because if it resets all instantly that will suck for me. Thanks.

[@maifelinban6237]

Thank you for all your tips and I love the tips in the comments too ❤

[@Bms010]

Fun fact when doing the arena challenges just trun your games difficulty to story mode and you'll fly through all the challenges within 20 mins. Still get the same amount of rewards and medals. Plus if u really want to get the trophy for completing them on harder difficulty you can always replay them. Easier and faster way to get the best gear in game without having to needlessly grind.

[@productreview199]

Very nice video. This game is amazing. I am surprised to see many negative comments. I think this game is better than HZD in every aspect except the story which is good but not as good as the original. However, I still think this is an awesome game and a must play.

[@Creshex8]

Gyro aiming makes it 5 times better. I’ve never ever had so much fun with a game, and 70% of that reason is due to having a gyro. No aim assist, total immersion and complete satisfaction from knowing every shot hit was done entirely from my own skills.

[@2LEGION2]

I just got into this game on ps plus never played the first one and honestly i downloaded the game a couple months back and played about 25 min or so and deleted the game it didn't really suck me in and i noticed it on there again the other day and i figured screw it I'll play for a couple hours and if i still don't like it I'll give up on it and about 50 min to an hour in i was hooked it really starts slow but if you get through that the game so far is a gem I'm only about 3 hours in or so but the taking off the pick up animations was a game changer for me. I did turn on the climbable highlight but i don't think that one is a must but the animations one for pick ups is huge and i 100% recomend this game to anyone who hasn't yet played it, it's free on ps plus not sure if i would've bought it at the store or not but for free this is a must play if you own a ps5

[@horstao]

Congrats man, you explain very well, tks for sharing

[@TommyAmazing]

Good tips! I wish I could’ve predicted the pacing better. I finished the main storyline way to fast. I had so much left to do that I thought the Singlarity quest was a halfway point and it was extremely disappointing when I realized the game was over. I still had a Couldrine to unlock, hadn’t even opened the Arena, didn’t do any hunting lodges, and only a couple malee pit challenges. I haven’t even unlocked all the Tallnecks. Idk, I loved the game but wish they would have made more side quests/milestones part of the main story path so you can’t finish with half the game unplayed. I’ll probably do more quests but it’s not the same once you finish.

[@jacklee469]

in fairness, they give you a recommended level indicator for each mission, story or side. I can't speak for FW as i'm yet to finish it, but for ZD that definitely ensured I finished every side quest before the main storyline, as I could see when I was progressing the story too quickly relative to the recommended levels of my side quests

[@GFlight.916]

That melee weapons charge is BIG BRAIN move

[@thejudge1712]

This is the best tips video Good job mate and thank you.

[@MythicSuns]

3:23 this trick also works in Zero Dawn

[@warriorlink8612]

Thanks for these tips, very helpful!

[@tlhbaker3045]

How do you get your gameplay kn youtube. I ahare inthe game, but it goes to an account that is by playstaion. On the game it says broadcast, but won't go to where all my videos are saved.

[@landlord59b]

U da 🐐 for this one bro 💪🏾

[@y0urs_0nly]

I recommend turning pickup animations off so you can grab and go

[@AtomicEy]

recommend turning Auto pickup on in settings

[@GRsBlueBiHan]

Great video man. Can you or someone else please explain the Co-Pilot option in settings?

[@RicoX-17]

If I'm not mistaken, the Co-Pilot option is for one-handed people, so another person can help them play the game with a second controller.

[@nanamaria_]

I'm not sure if i'm just dumb or something but somehow my settings are so much smaller than in this video and i can't find the quick swap for example. Am i just too early on the game or what? I'm playing on ps5
