New World: 11 MUST Have Settings Before Playing!

In this video I will be showing you some of the most important settings you must enable when playing New World. These range from Key Bindings, Ability Cool downs, Weapon Skill Visibility, Bandwith Mode, Anti Griefing Settings, Sound Settings and Voice Chat Modes! Great settings for solo players and popular streamers as well that will allow you to control exactly what notifications and accessibility you have in the game.

I don't even play the game but you have my Like.
Reason: No stupid intro, no useless "bla bla bla", no begging.
Direct to the point, that's what all youtubers should do.

No long intro, straight to the point, quick to say what to change and why. You earned a like and a sub man well done!

Quick, informative and efficient. Like all videos should be. Thanks!

[Yeet-kfox]

agree with all of these except the voice chat mode. its such a cool feature to have in an mmo. if someone is being immature, just mute them. but dont have to set permanently off. thatll ruin many many player interaction experiences. made a lot of friends through voice chat in the betas.

[goofsaddggkle]

Absolutely the best tips I’ve seen. Thank you so much

Re: #8: The (Vertical) designation in the menu is confusing. That's not actually how this FOV setting works, I did extensive testing in the Betas. Increasing FOV shows more in BOTH the x and y directions, counter to what the setting suggests. Another quick thing - sliding it to 70 will definitely not allow you to "see further up ahead" as you said. Increasing FOV will make things appear farther away. You will have more trouble seeing things at a distance. i.e. you'll have more trouble "seeing further up ahead". The trade off is you get a wider view of the world around you, which can be really useful.
An important thing to note is that increasing FOV makes the ranged weapons "zoom" (when you aim down sights) much less. Aim at a boulder far away, switch the FOV from 70 to 40, and see how much farther you're zoomed in. You can play with the settings in game (tomorrow! woot). Personally I found the default FOV (50) right on for ranged gameplay and 62ish to be about right for me for melee.
