Solid tips. I want to emphasize the usefulness of the damage numbers. The final number you put on someone basically shows the percent damage you have done to them and can be incredibly useful on deciding to rechallenge someone quickly or stay behind cover. There have been a lot of occasions where I would have taken cover and regained health but saw the enemy was one shot away from death so I took the challenge. Also, just a gripe toward Dice and the terrible vehicle control options, forget about the TV missile sharing vehicle sensitivity) (which is ridiculous), but why do helos and jets share the same sensitivity? They fly completely differently and basically force you to optimize for one or the other. I'm convinced this is a major reason why most people can't fly jets well in this game. If they ever split these out, the TV missile can share the jet control sensitivity.
Good tips in general, but more precision about Universal Soldier Aiming, there is a formula to get the right setting actually, since it's linked to your display ratio "By default, the uniform soldier aiming coefficient is set at 133% (1.33). If you multiply the height of your display by 1.33, the result will be the width of your display if it was a 4:3 ratio display. With 16:9, if you multiply the height of your display by 1.777, the result will be the width of your display if it's 16:9 ratio. So with 16:9, you should use either 177% or 178%. For 21:9 display ratio, coefficient should be set to 233%."
It's a personal taste, but I read on mouse-sensitivity forum that it's good to get used to 0%, as it's good for a long term accuracy improvement with a good control, and a lot of other benefits (100%+ is only short-term improvement with some drawbacks). I experienced it first by playing Apex Legends only some time ago, as this game uses 0%. Then I played 177% when I returned to BF4, and I was inconsistent again. Quote by potato psoas from the forum I mentioned, "Since 0% match is matched directly at the center of the screen, you will maintain muscle memory at the crosshair. This has a lot of benefits with regards to precision and tracking. On the other hand, since 100% match is matched at the edge of the screen, you will maintain muscle memory the closer your target is to the edge. This can make your sensitivity feel much more consistent across the entire monitor rather than just at the center. Every other percentage either leans more towards being matched at the center or matched at the edge. My personal opinion? You are still going to have to learn muscle memory for every FOV no matter what match percentage you use, so I don't really believe 100% has any advantage in that regard. You will have to develop different muscle memory across the FOV range no matter. So then, which one is better? Is it better to match at the crosshair or match at the edge? Here is my answer: as you move your mouse towards a target, you are effectively moving it closer to the crosshair and further from the edge. With 0% you feel more in control as the target approaches your crosshair and less in control with 100% as it moves away from the edge of the monitor. So therefore, 0% is the logical choice for the sake of your accuracy. Your muscle memory does not transfer very well at the crosshair with 100% and you will often miss a lot of shots and not be able to give the killing blow even though you probably acquired the targets much easier." More amazing explanations in the "why 0% match is best for tracking and 100% match best for flick?" thread on mouse-sensitivity forum.
Mary thank you very much for this video! Really saved my life numerous times in the games. I was using the settings of another RUclipsr but they were totally crap and destroyed my K/D ratio. With your settings, everything is so fluid like what it should be! Thanks again, from an Xbox Series X player.
One minor thing, on PC, Casper Drone sensitivity don’t seem to be effected by Vehicle sensitivity. I tried changing the numbers, but nothing seems to work. It might be just based on solider hip fire sensitivity.
So very helpful. I would sit and watch a one hour video on someone thoroughly explaining all of the various settings and breaking them down and giving examples like you did with various options in this video. Because it appears, with how technical so many of the settings are.....and in depth, I will NEVER get each and every one of my settings set to their full potential. Thanks again.
i wish they’d change the size of the damage indicator by how much damage you took, doesn’t make sense that you can be shot by a sniper and lose half your health but get a small notch for the damage indicator
Thanks TheCadWoman for these tips... I have been also enjoying your experience from the video Leviathan Event Week 2 and New Weekly Missions. Very good content released all the time.😉💛💯👍
Amazing vid as always. Will need to spend some time testing out the aim coefficient stuff I never touched it before but this guide will help. Also, curious what your go to specialists for Shutdown are. Attacking or defending I feel like both demand a completely diff playstyle that makes me change everything down to my attachments.
Thank you so much, you are hands down my favorite Battlefield content creator! I'm just getting back into 2042 after being disappointed after launch. Your videos are always so helpful. Thanks again!
I am so glad for Allchat... it was crazy they ever removed it. I find that in general people are respectful and it's fun. Honestly I usually see more vitriol in the team chat lol
You can use the code I posted in the pinned comment on PS5 as well. Just go to Portal and then host and in the last tab that's named "experience code" simply insert the code and host it.
That was ........ amazing!!! Great explanation of these complicated settings lol. Much more detail (good or bad) in the settings and gameplay than COD.
Extensive options is a stretch for words considering previous titles have had massive improvements in accessibility and and hud options such as changing colors and icon opacity, can't tell you how many times I have failed to kill someone because the objective icon was blocking my view of the enemy and spotting them
In my testing I found that the aim sens has no effect on the tv missiles max turn rate which is low enough that vehicle sens only comes into play when making micro adjustments.
0% coefficient is the way to good in my opinion tracking is awesome plus it alouds you to scale your input, using all finger, wrist, and arm. give you a better sens of aiming
One setting that all console players should set to off as soon as they can is "Crossplay enabled." This will make life so much better for you if you play on Console.
I haven’t played Battlefield 2042 since December so I’m looking forward to seeing what changes have been made. Is it right that all of my settings will be reset due to the recent updates to the game?……
Does it bother anyone else that the squad leader icon is two triangles stacked in the mini map? 3:23 It looks like it's supposed to be a star but it's not quite designed right and for the longest time I thought it was a display bug. They should have just kept it an arrow in the mini map, honestly not sure what the point of it being a wonky star is.
I’m glad I found your account. On the collection screen in the lists of weapons there are white and orange dots to the right of the weapons. What do they indicate?
They show the mastery for each weapon. One dot is Mastery 3, two are Mastery 6 and so on. When the dots are red you have reached mastery 40 and will receive a red/black skin for this weapon and a player card badge.
@@TheCadWoman Thank you. I’ve been thinking it was an indication of a new weapons upgrade that I hadn’t checked yet. BF1 had a similar system and I thought it may have carried over. I enjoy your content which is very informative.
Thanks.. But there is no 'coefficient,' in my option.. There are only vertical mouse aim ratio, vertical mouse zoom ain ratio, zoom trantition sensitivity.. How is that happened?
Good question. I‘m not using it myself cause I never felt like it had a huge advantage. I feel like the game runs better and more stable without it. But I haven’t tested it a lot.
@@TheCadWoman I see, i will try it without then! currently i have a 4080 on 1440p with maxed out settings and only averaging 140 FPS with DLSS. Hopefully i will get over 120 without.
Anyone else having problems with the satellite loading screen bug when you open the game and it stucks there in a constant loop? I've been having this problem since I bought the game almost a month ago. Does someone have a solution please?
Hi TCW, Can you please also suggest any AUDIO hacks? I am using Massdrop version Focal headset which are pretty high-end and still the audio feels rather generic and inaccurate almost when it comes to hearing footsteps in certain direction. I am on stereo setting on the headphones in Audio and the quality of audio is grossly subpar. My soundcard is Asus Essence STX II on 192 khz etc, I also have an external RME dac/amp but I am 100% certain that it wont make any audio qualify difference as well, as I have tested with other games and currently the external DAC/amp isnt connected. For gaming audio STXII soundcard also sounds better to my ears.
I am CONSTANTLY getting DirectX function errors. DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED and DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG only in Battlefield though.. Warzone and other games not a problem
Hey, TheCadWoman I went in on the Aim Trainer experience aim pretty good but I could always improve 😆 Well I started in immediately just sighting in on the AI players as targets then began to let my weapon rip... accuracy was pretty good hit ratio was good. I readjusted a bit in my chair and threw everything off a bit.. I wasn't even thinking about that part. Moved again and I was fine.. I called myself getting a bit to creative and started just experimenting with some c4 sticky bombs throwing it down the AI players... Now normally I would have stuck to the mission just aim practicing but i let my curiosity get the best of me. I detonated the c4... 😏 Went to look around and was looking at the weapons left on the ground where the explosion went off... As the re-spawning was still going on for the AI players I was running from toward a AI player from its rear right side shoulder side and i stopped with my back facing it. The AI performed a take down maneuver on me and slit my throat...🤣🤣🤣🤔 I said what the heck..... Was that a developer that did that or jumped in to take a look to have a little revenge.. I was laughing so hard... I tried to step in front of the AI players again with back facing towards them again to see if I could replicate this again.. No lottery there.. I was like that was so Awesome if the AI just acted out but it made me think of some of these documentaries about AI. Either way that was Awesome.. I didn't know if you had ever had this happen before to you while making all these guides, videos tips etc. for us..💯👍 I just found it very interesting...☺
@TheCadWoman Ahh..Yikes!🤣🤣🤣😆 I found it to be interesting it was quite funny... I think that one had it for me for taking out his brother's and itself a few too many times😄😆 I know now though don't get too close a lesson learned.
I have both at 100. It's definitely helpful, but you also loose a bit of control over your aim. Especially when there are several targets close to each other. It's a double edged sword.
Vehicle sensitivity seems to have no affect or at least an extremely small one on liz missiles on console (Xbox) meanwhile I see pc players turning it on a dime 😔
Brilliant video but what the hell has this series come to. You have to go into display settings, hud general and scroll through lots of settings to find enable all chat. How old is the target audience for this game

Thankyou 😁
thank you so much!!! i have seen people doing weekly missions in that server, do you know how to do it?
Tnx again for sharing 👍
Thanks that's some pretty solid advice, I was looking to get back into this game. The launch was so dissapointing xD

Hello. New to your channel. Love it so far. Just something you forget to talk in the FOV is the visual recoil is less when using a high FOV.
Great explanation of all the setting really liked the video.

amazing amount of good info, zero waffle love it
Finally someone else knows about the vehicle sens setting for the tv missile. My friends never believe me when i told em about it
It‘s so weird that they bound the sensitivity to vehicles.
In my testing I found that the aim sens has no effect on the tv missiles max turn rate which is low enough that vehicle sens only comes into play when making micro adjustments.

Nice video thanks a lot. Which is your dpi and mouse sensitivity? TIA

Thank u luv from brooknam
Keep it up
If u slide, is your shooting time also slower if fast run is on?
During the slide it's the same, no matter what kind of sprint you used before.
8:24 is not true, when testing with kovaak sensitivity matcher ads never equals the the hipfire sensitivity at 100% ads...not for me anyways
Why turn on ADS FOV which can screw with one's muscle memory but then set zoom sensitivity to 85% (which can definitely do the same)

Cad where do you side with having or not having Aim assist and snap?
I have both at 100. It's definitely helpful, but you also loose a bit of control over your aim. Especially when there are several targets close to each other. It's a double edged sword.
Do you know how to remove the console button for Pc?
What do you mean? Crossplay?

Nope. None of the aim trainers is working anymore 😔

Ban controllers on pc and ban aim assists. That's the setting I'm looking for. Thanks for all your work and videos though!
No, just make the recoil fair lol. There’s a sizeable player base who grew up on consoles and are significantly better with controller than mnk
Yes, I would also prefer the ban 😳, but I think the recoil thing would be better 😄
I use Uniform soldier aiming at 0%, it feels more intuitive and precise
Why does it seem like PC has better hipfire than console?
No idea but it does indeed feel a lot easier to do hipfire kills on PC compared to console.
