Whether on console or PC, there’s some 29 game changing settings that you’ll want to take advantage of, some you’ll want to test out for yourself that are entirely subjective and more. So as we go along, drop your thoughts on the XDefiant launch thus far, if you’re looking forward to anything in particular or whatever it may be you’d like to discuss.

For the time being, servers are pretty messy. Took me a few hours to get into some matches. If you're having issues, what worked for me was queueing and then tabbing over to my loadout tab in my menu then didn't touch anything until I joined a match. Weird, but fixed the issue for me. Hope it can work for you too!
Additionally, for some reason Private Zones are not enabled? Surely has to be a bug as all studio comms pointed towards this being a launch feature, so apologies for suggesting testing settings in there, I (incorrectly) assumed it would be up and running by now after the server fixes.
Should I play on Kbm or Controller?
This game is super hard for me. Can't make any kills, and the maps are way to open. You're getting killed from 5334 different angles, at all times. Its fun, but super hard for me..
yo is there any setting to change red dot color to not be the same as the enemies color?
I feel like the sens is so slow. I usually play pretty high sens but I have my horizontal at 100 and vert at 40 with .75 aim multiplier
dialogue 0 volume gang
Your video settings explanation is so oblique??
Whole video is just "this is totally subjective to the person" ..lol
You keep talking about the practice course..Its greyed out for me and i can't load it
It’s fucking awful… going back to cod 😂
We need a Auto Move Forward. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
I need the fov at 60 to see enemies 😭
Me and my friend were playing yesterday and the first two games we got top of scoreboard then after that each game it felt like we werent doing any damage and getting absolutely destroyed.
I feel like there is slight input lag, feels very delayed when I’m looking and aiming. The game is fun but it just feels off
"go to the practice range" bro I would If I could. Imagine telling people to use a feature that's locked out of the game
Summary: its entirely subjective
They need to speed up the bullets. It feels like air soft.
It's COD. They just remade COD
The flashbang setting changing to dark is ingenious. It’s the most jarring effect in video games for me so GG’s to them 👏🏼
We need linear controller settings not just for the aim, and TDM WHERE'S TDM!
Anyone else getting visibly shot through the wall but cant do it back ?
How do you get in the practice range?
Im on PC and its greyed out.
have trying playing this for several hours now and cannot seem to get off the ground. the way is way to sweaty for someone like me to be playing.
Basically its subjective, got it 🥱
Forced crossplay is pretty aids
anyone else having issues on 2160 resolution, when i try to change it to to 4k game automatically pop into window mode and doesnt allow me to go in 4k resolution
Him gaslighting me into thinking I was the only one without access to firing range sent me lmao
useless ahh video
Well, it's not really here. No?
They really need a prone option. Just crouch is no good for capturing objectives
Can someone tell me how to change from keyboard to controller in the settings?
DELTA-01 Error, how can we play this trash?
To recap this video…. “It’s up to you.”
Game is bad.. Its jus unpleasant to fire. Which fps games is all about. Gun play is just like from a mobile game. Everything else is really polished.
anyone know why my controller feels stiff
Is practice zone closed for anyone else? It’s just grayed out
im sorry this game is straight up trash. Clunky garbage shooter it will die within the year. Its so awful.
how do i change my region im stuck in US east and no options to change it to west
Thanks for the advice! I'll be testing out your suggestions. I had a go at the game yesterday, but I haven't quite formed a solid opinion yet. One thing I did notice was that the movement, particularly using the right thumb stick, felt a bit clunky compared to the smoothness of COD MW 3 2023. Additionally, I found it challenging to keep my reticle centered, which became problematic given that I typically play hardcore mode in Call of Duty (where fewer bullets are needed to kill compared to core mode). As a result, I was constantly getting taken out because my aim wasn't quite on point. XDefiant seems to blend elements from Overwatch 2, Fortnite, and old-school COD Black Ops. I plan on tinkering with the settings and investing more time into it to see if I can find a setup that works better for me.
Is the movement supposed to be as clunky as it is? IE coming to complete stop after a slide and needing to sprint again?
Loving the game so far. Only negative thing to say at this point is the movement and gunplay feel rigid and clunky to me.
For example if you switch your weapon and aim, your gun will come up and just sort of sit in the idle animation for a second before it actually starts to aim.
COD has fallen way downhill but they’ve always done gunplay and movement right. Everything is fluid and it really feels like your shots are connecting.
XDefiant doesn’t have that fluid feel. It doesn’t feel like your inputs smoothly translate to what your character does in the game.
I guess one more thing I’ve noticed is the time to die feels significantly shorter than the time to kill. It feels like I’m dying as soon as someone sees me while I have to mag dump just to barely kill them.
Regardless I’m really enjoying the game. It really reminds me of OG CoD and even OG Halo. Almost feels nostalgic to play the game tbh. I’m going to play until I feel like I’m good at the game, and then I’ll know if I really like it or not.
Am i the only person who uses the controller layout to swap melee and jump? when jump is on the right stick, u can jump and turn without moving your thumb across the controller.
