hello everybody welcome to the channel
my name is JGod in today's video we're
gonna talk about how to adjust settings
to play better and call duty black ops 4
I'm sure some of the tips in this video
are gonna be ones that you're familiar
with or you've seen in previous Call of
Duty's but I guarantee that there's
gonna be a couple that you've probably
never seen before keep in mind that all
the settings I'm gonna cover today
should be usable in multiplayer black
out and in zombies the first thing we're
gonna talk about is readjusting your
controller button layout since the jump
mechanic is so effective in this game
you're gonna want to make sure you're
able to jump around corners while
maintaining your aim so let's go ahead
and walk through some of these presets
so you kind of have an idea of their
strengths and weaknesses unless you have
a specialty controller I never recommend
leaving it in default and the main
reason for that is because it'll just be
a little bit harder to keep your thumb
on that right analog stick as you jump
slide or go prone the next button layout
we'll talk about which is very popular
is the tactical button layout and the
reason why this was so popular because
drop-shotting used to be a real big
thing not so much in this game but this
can actually be used for sliding because
you make your right analog stick your
Crouch button to your prone button so
you'll be able to slide keep that thumb
on the right analog stick to be as
accurate as possible another great
option is stick and move and one of the
benefits of stick and move is it makes
that right analog stick your jump button
so you'll be able to jump around corners
while maintaining that right thumbstick
on the analog again to be as accurate as
possible when you're in the air the next
one we'll talk about is bumper jumper
and this one allows you to jump with one
of your triggers which will allow you to
be able to aim down sight pull that
trigger jump shot and keep that thumb on
that right analog toast another great
option as well they also have a hybrid
of bumper jumper and tactical which is
called bumper jumper tactical and this
is probably recommended overall because
it allows you to do everything at once
you get to jump in with your triggers
you get the going prone with your right
analog stick so overall you have some
pretty great options so for my
recommendations I would say stop using
default and then switch it to either
stick and move or bump or jump or
tactical keep in mind that there is a
transition period it will suck initially
because your muscle memory is gonna kick
in and you've been playing default for
so long that it's going to be a little
bit of a struggle and I promise you if
you commit to one of the button layouts
that I've recommended until it is muscle
memory you're going to be significantly
better than you were with that default
button layout also if you're looking for
an
edge-on how fast you can pull that
trigger you might want to consider
changing your actual triggers to flip
and that'll allow you to shoot an aim
down sight with l1 and r1 although that
difference is significantly more
noticeable at semiautomatic weapons you
should notice some kind of improvement
across the board
let's go ed and get into the next
setting which is very important for a
lot of players and that is sensitivity
keep in mind that everyone has a unique
sensitivity that works great and feels
great for them and it's up to you as a
player to identify what that sensitivity
is and finding your perfect sensitivity
is something you struggle with I will be
leaving a link to my tips for better
accuracy video down in the description
which include how to find that perfect
sensitivity the next thing we'll talk
about is target assists and aim assist
and keep in mind that these two things
are completely different target assists
works in multiplayer and blackout that
allows you to get that little bit of a
slowdown when you take your crosshairs
over the enemy and amesys is that thing
you experienced in zombies every time
you 80s it auto locks on to the zombies
head for the most part either way you're
gonna want to make sure you have both of
these settings turned on at all times
I've heard of people doing all these
kinds of funny accuracy drills with no
aim assist and then turning it on
feeling like you got godlike accuracy in
a day I don't think that stuff works
you're more than welcome to try it and
the last thing when it comes to
controller settings is to turn that
vibration off trust me you don't need it
it doesn't help it's just a distraction
more than anything the next tip we'll
talk about goes against pretty much what
the game is telling you to do but I
encourage you to do it anyways the tip
is in relation to your brightness a lot
of times the game will tell you brighten
it up to hear or darken it until you
can't see this thing in most games that
are graphically stunning and expect you
to go through a campaign and see things
in a specific way it is very important
to follow those directions but in a
multiplayer call a duty first-person
shooter like black ops 4 you want to be
able to see enemies when they lurk in
the shadows so you're gonna want to make
sure you up this brightness until about
70 or 80 percent somewhere in that range
will be perfect for this game because
there's a lot of little dark windows or
dark areas in this game makes a little
bit harder to see your opponent by
boosting the brightness you might lose a
little bit of that color saturation but
you will be able to find opponents that
much easier so the next tip we'll talk
about is your audio preset and this
is very important because I know a lot
of people are struggling with being able
to hear footsteps so the first thing
you're gonna want to do with the audio
settings is change your audio preset to
super crunch the main reason you're
gonna want to use super crunch because
it allows you to hear more subtle
auditory cues like footsteps gun
reloading and different stuff like that
just all over the map in addition to
changing that Audio preset you're gonna
want to change the individual audio
settings like voice volume music volume
cinematic volume and sound effect volume
and you're gonna want to put everything
to have except for sound effect volume
you're gonna bump that up as high as
possible it pretty much put voice volume
music volume and cinematic volume to
half at number five
while sound effects is at ten and the
main reason you're gonna want to put
your settings this way is because the
voice volume the music volume and the
cinematic volume are there to enrich
your gaming experience but they can be
very distracting
when you're trying to focus on footsteps
people reloading gunfire all these
different things so you're gonna want to
boost that sound effect volume so you'll
be able to hear all the stuff that you
really want to hear when you're in a
multiplayer match another quick add for
your audio settings is to turn that
controller sound off it's just the
distraction more than anything we only
have a couple more tips left and keep in
mind that this last one is gonna be a
game changer for you but the next one
we'll talk about is directly from David
Vonderhaar himself
here's his tweet it reads don't forget
to set your options in menu for a black
out mini-map to square and black out
item pickup to press and the main reason
you're gonna want to change that
mini-map to squares because you're gonna
have more area to view when you actually
look at your mini-map which is a huge
advantage and the second tip when it
comes to picking up items this saved a
ton of time when you're running around
you have it to press all you got to do
is run around pick up a weapon pick up
ammo pick up anything it's just tapping
it and you'll be able to pick up that
item with the ease firstly I think
that's one of the biggest changes they
could have made for the console side
because it was so slow picking up stuff
when you add actually hold the button
wait for that little circle animation to
fill up before it actually picked it up
which slowed down your loading phase
significantly and now on to the last tip
which i think is probably one of the
most important and that is shrinking
your HUD I'm gonna go ahead and
demonstrate how to do this on the
PlayStation 4 but if you're on Xbox just
follow that in-game prompt when you're
trying to shrink that safe area it'll
give you specific directions for that
console
this by far has to be one of the most
unknown tips around but probably one of
the most helpful and pretty much what
its gonna do for you in-game it's going
to decrease the distance between your
mini-map and the center of your screen
which will make it a little bit easier
for your eyes to bounce back and forth
between mini-map and center or screen
because all good players are using the
mini-map about half the time they're
playing you pretty much look at the
mini-map look back at the center of the
screen and continually have their eyes
working the closer these two distances
are together it just makes it that much
easier for you to focus on the gameplay
while being able to view your mini-map
even if you're playing on a monitor you
will notice the difference but if you're
playing on a TV you will see a night and
day difference so trust me shrink the
safe area as small as possible
small as the game will allow as small as
your console will allow and you will
have an improved gaming experience and
