Stay Alive Longer & Improve KD Ratio! (CoD WW2 Tips!) 

I have such a bad habit of getting caught sprinting and dying because of it. I get excited to get to the action then boom lol

The last tip is very applicable for everyone. No matter how good you think you are you can always improve. As a 2kd+ player I already know all the main tips. But improving on them is where I struggle cause I get so mad lol.

Great vid Ace. Too bad the comment section is just pure cancer from people saying "GIT GUD", to complaining about the maps, or saying "WHO CARES" all the time forgetting that you're a RU-vidr to give tips and tricks to people.

That last tip is good for life in general. That is what separates a kid from an adult.

HA, I love the comment about knowing where your teammates are helps you know where the enemies are. In theory, absolutely. In practice, I'm always with the absolute worst kids ever and constantly get killed from the side/behind where a teammate was just 'covering'.

Thanks for the additional advice, Ace. I will say I've taken your advice in your "Aiming Drill" video to heart, and start a custom match with your stated parameters almost every time I begin to play. I will add, I never worry about my K/D. I'm just content at doing my best in a match. I'm happy ending a match at 0.500 K/D, and ecstatic when I get even, or go slightly positive. Thanks again, and keep up the awesome content.

I feel like the skill based matchmaking in this game is very obvious. The lobbies I enter are either entirely sweaty (80% of the time) or entirely scrubby (20%). It's rarely ever a mix of good and bad players. I've never noticed this in a cod game before.

A tip that helped me (from the MarkOfJ) is to attack from the sides of the map. Once you control the outside part you can dominate the middle and the side you have taken. Now if people stop coming to you cut through the middle carefully and switch sides. Also people tend to come back to kill you so try to move around b/c thet will be prefiring. This helped my KD (0.90 to a 1.67 and improving) and helped my score per min (107 to a 305.) Apply UAV to up your score and help yourself, along with teammates.

You just have to camp a lane. NOT corner camp. Head glitch a few kills then move to another all around the edge of the maps. I just go in a big circle and work my way around. Some say its camping I call it CRUSHING!! Half camp half rush. Always go very positive. Love it or hate it it works , people that run around headless feed the beast!

At this cod game i actually had to relearn everything that made me good in advanced warfare, which was the previous cod game i played and i were really good at rushing fast and just using exo movements all the time to avoid getting shot. I never really played a boots on the ground cod before this, so when i came to both modern warfare remastered and ww2 i was a total noob with 0.40 in KD.. I have now managed to become pretty decent, but im struggling to get my kd beyond 1 because of all the struggle i had beforehand. Now my kd is 0.93 and im in master prestige. Problem beeing that i have 3000 more deaths than kills so this takes forever.

For me personally, using Lookout has become so beneficial. My awareness just become much better which improved my performance quite a bit. Despite whatever setup i used, as long as i had lookout, i would still perform quite well.

My KD suffers because I play drunk AF sometimes

I'm actually really good at putting myself in a position to win almost all my gunfights. Only problem is I have some of the worst aim ever. Everything you said i agreed with though because I do it already. Great vid

My K/D has always been terrible. I started following TheXclusiveAce tips and tricks during Infinite Warfare, and went from a 0.59 kd up to a 1.89 kd. Currently sat on WW2 with a 1.04 kd. Best tip i follow; hip fire just before ADS

Ace throwing shade at the campers in the beginning. Awesome. This video might get rid of a handful of campers

The ending was so true and beautiful😢

Who thinks there needs to be a feature to blacklist maps that you can play on? E.g so you can't get on goddamn Gustav Cannon.

To snipers, my best advice would be to not shoot if you’re don’t have the clear shot. Everyone hears sniper fire and knows exactly where it came from usually. Don’t give up your position if you don’t have to. And stay away from your nooby teammates who just like to shoot just for the hell of it. Sometimes they end up getting you killed because they’re so trigger happy.

In this game, sound is HUGE. I find myself stopping for a couple seconds after i get a kill or two, or am regenerating health, just to listen to see if anyone is around me.I decided to upgrade my headset here recently to a "surround sound" one and it is amazing.

I didn't even really think about strafing side-to-side while shooting at an enemy. Just played my first game while doing that and it definitely helped a lot.

I've been subscribed to your channel for awhile now. You're easily one of the best (and most informative) gaming RU-vidrs at the moment. Just the volume of topics you cover and how much they help is INSANE. Thank you!!!

I still think it's amazing that some people never look at the minimap.

One thing I've heard you mention in the past is to play to your gun's strengths. I've been more conscious of this lately and it's made a huge difference. After BO3 I had to adjust my play style quite a bit and I'm now starting to see the results. Great video as usual.

This is all of the tips that I have ever received from you Ace that made me a better player. I'm stoked that these are all on one vid! I hope you blow up more because of this vid!

This is my first cod and I’m new to pc gaming. I destroyed my kdr at first but it’s so hard to come back from but I get consistent 2 kdr in matches but my kd so far gone it’s really hard to get it higher.

My kd is a 1.03 and Im happy Another tip is don't challenge the bar 95% of the time you'll lose

TheXclusiveAce man your explanations are on point every time I watch your vids I learn something new. Thanks sharing your knowledge it definitely is improving my game.. keep them coming cheers

I’ve watched a lot of different vids to try to improve my game. Ace’s are by far the best and well thought out. Thanks for uploading, easy to watch, understand and execute. Cheers bud keep it up.

Why does everyone keep talking about Kevin Durant?

I actually think that this video was spot on with all of the suggestions you gave. These steps are hands down the best to follow for casual players trying to improve.

I disagree with what you said about selecting divisions... yes, infantry and airbourne divisions are probably the best in most scenarios; however there are certainly situations where armoured or expeditionary are a great choice. Such as... 1) Armoured is great in hardcore and objective game modes (particularly domination, war and hardpoint). It gives you flak jacket which allows you to use a basic training besides hunker and still get significantly reduced explosive damage. 2) Expeditionary is amazing if you want to play defensively. It allows you to resupply lethal equipment. I always run land mine with this class. The game allows you to keep two land mines active at once, therefor this division is amazing for locking down buildings and/ or control enemy movement. I would also pair this with the gas grenade which allows even more control. I didn’t mention mountain because you already touched on that. Obviously it is great for the sharpshooter ability as well, but i typically run a 4x scope sniper with my expeditionary division, with rifleman and the combat shotgun as my secondary.

You're video editing skills and commentary is so good! Definitely helped me improve my game since infinite warfare. Great vid Ace, thanks!

My dad has sucked at CoD as a casual player since CoD4. He took a great liking to WWII and wanted me to help him improve at the game. (He holds a 0.7 K/D, I hold a 2.1) My best tip to him was how to use the HUD. I told him to look at it a LOT more, like at least 30% of the time. There is so much knowledge a person can gain from their HUD I also got him a headset for Christmas, and he didn't realize how much valuable audio he was missing (teammate callouts, enemy footsteps, etc.) Get a headset or turn your volume up. Srafe the enemy, don't move towards him Lastly, I showed him how overpowered the marskman basic training is. It is an economy UAV. You can see emenies from across the map and predict where they will be. He's up to a 0.9 K/D and regularly going positive in TDM games.

Appreciate the tips. Ive been playong COD for 5+ yrs and this month was my first time ever that i got 30 kills. Thanks again for the tips.

Single BIGGEST tip: try to have your target centered before ADSing. For some reason, when you ADS and then try to lock on, it feels so inconsistent. Also, with the health regen, I like to pretend it’s Halo 3. You have a few seconds of no regeneration then your health slowly goes up. It makes playing aggressively almost impossible.

You're the GOAT! Thank you for bringing actual useful Call of Duty-videos to the public. You have helped me a lot. Thank you.

Your last suggestion was the best. Watch the kill cam! When I first started playing Blops 1 I watched every single kill cam to learn what people were doing better than me. I learned the most that way!

I'm a bit of a COD veteran nowadays, this is my 6th COD game. I've had a 1.4 KD for the past two years. But in this game I can't get above a 1.0 KD, I do everything "right", I play exactly like I've played in years past (primarily a slow AR player). But my bullets don't register, I barely get double or triple kills, and I've had to camp my ass off just to get the bloodthirstys for Diamond ARs. I'm 4th Prestige, ~100 hours played, and I'm just done with this game. It's so unrewarding no matter what I do I can't go positive. Thanks for the content as always Ace, I guess I'll be back in November for Black Ops 4.

One of the biggest thing that get me that you didnt mentioned is getting nervous when on a streak. For some reason I get supper nervous when I realize Im doing good, and make stupid mistakes like challenge a quick scoper at close range.

Best COD channel!!! Congratulations from Brazil!!!!

Definitely my favorite Chanel to listen to for COD update and tips. Keep doing your thing man!

Also learn to hip fire and get comfortable with it! I can’t say enough how effective this is and how many times hip firing has saved me in a gun fight!

Just discovered your videos and just want to say they are great. I can't wait to try the aiming drill to see how it helps. So many videos just tell you to drop shot and use control freaks, or just use a certain set up. I like how you just give guide lines .

This has helped me a lot. Thanks for the video and advice. Much Appreciated!

Wow,I love how you put so much effort into vids,that why I prefer you over a lot of other youtubers

You can tell that he puts alot of effort in all his videos this will go along way keep up the good work and happy new year

Ace will never steer you wrong! His aim assist tutorial has helped tremendously! Ace, you really put out some excellent content. In my opinion, your channel is THE destination for any COD player seeking to improve. I like Driftor's channel too, but I feel that your channel is a notch higher, because you really dissect virtually every component of WWII.

Best Cod tip channel on RU-vid. Keep putting in work man.

Excellent video. I can’t fault your effort in trying to help players better themselves. So so helpful

First month I sucked im a jet packer I had a 0.63 now I’m improving with a 0.86

Probably the most improvement came for me from starting to "pre aim". If I'm running towards a door I'll aim real quick at that doorway. Same with everything else. Going around a corner I'll aim where someone would come from. When that person eventually comes you're on target and moving less area than your opponent. My ratio has went up .18 in the last week. Oh and over time you train yourself to aim real fast at these areas and muscle memory has you learning to aim the same.

Thanks ace. You need to know man your content is A1. Great stuff, I think you could really make it big on here

My class MG-15 Extended Mag Quick Draw (Grip if you want to trade out Quick draw Mountain Division Secondary Your choice Hunker basic training SS-mine I play HC Domination and capture A and B flag then spawn trap I play with a six man team and i would really recommend a team of 4+

I feel your pain, great vid ace. Way to stay true to your subs. Great job.

Great video man I really enjoy your useful tips especially in regards to gunfights. Keep up the good work broskie

GEEEEZ your a mower! Watching this video I'm like, yeah, I want to get like THAT! Great video, looking fwd to trying these and your other links to get better K/D. Thanks!!

Really enjoy your videos. I’m relatively new to multipIayer comparatively, as I was all about the zombies series (not for ww2 though). I think a good tip is to be proficient in different styles of play and know how and when, to implement them. I disliked playing against snipers, cause I sucked at using the sniper rifles. Same with rushers, campers and the like. So I practiced and suffered lame k/d and spm statistics (it’s still not great) but eventually came around to know not only how to use the weapons adventitiously, but effectively implement the different styles during game play. War mode is a great place to practice using different styles from defense and traps to rush and hold and all in one game. Plus war mode increases spm w/out affecting k/d. I still die a lot in tdm, however now more often than not, I end the game with a positive k/d, 15-30 kills, multiple score streak call-ins (all which helps my team) and a good spm. Thanks for your tips and keep-em coming!

My KD is 0.92 and I'm proud of it ! It may seem cheesy but the most important stat for me is the enjoyment/annoyment ratio while playing. Have a nice day :)

AMAZING VIDEO ACE!!!! I really liked how effective you were about covering awareness and definitely your take on gunfights, personally I prefer dropshotting it just works for me. AND I AM SUPER EXCITED ABOUT YOUR SPAWN GUIDES!!!!! I first came across you during bo3 and your video on spawn guides with its guidance changed my gameplay literally overnight!!!! However please when you get the chance please please please look into whats faster, airborne with scoped perk when straifing or infantry IV with scoped perk when straifing. I feel like there is a hidden tip in the discovery of that. My friend and I are gonna run some tests tonight to see but if you did a video it would confirm what we discover...I wanna say airborne with scoped perk even out with infantry IV. But we will see. Keep it up Ace u rock!!!!!!!!! I am a better player cuz of u!!!!!

My tipps are: 1. Listen to Ace 2. Do some challenges and learn to work around a clear weapon disadvantage (No Akimbo ACOG Magnum challenge this year? :-( ) 3. Keep a relaxed mind-set. If you spiral into a bad mood, just take a break ;-)

Sick video as always Ace! Keep up the good work and you’ll reach a mil in no time!

Big tip: play on a small enough screen. A huge screen sounds cool or whatever, but it is impossible to get good screen awareness while sitting in front of a massive tv

My best advice aside from all these good tips, is not to be overconfident in your ability to come out on top in bad situations. Most of the time when I know I shouldnt try a gunfight and try it anyway, I get smoked. Better to reevaluate, slow down the gameplay, and figure out the best way to win every gunfight even before the enemy knows whats happening

Play slower, if you’re find an area that has traffic but not too many people coming from different ways, don’t be afraid to wait. But that doesn’t mean to stay there. And control the outside of the map, and work your way to there spawn without flipping them, and pick off the people running towards the middle.

This game doesnt want you to have a good kd.

One think you forgot to mention that I see ALOT of people doing is reloading after every single kill, getting caught reloading can really mess you up, most of the guns in WW2 have a 25+ round magazine which you can easily get 3,4 and even 5+ kills before reloading. By all means when you are safely behind cover reload but when you reload after every kill, like I said you are at a disadvantage. East gunfights when your opponent can't fire back at you because they reload their extended mag STG every kill

you make incredible videos.. always fact filled with great tips keep up the good work

Awesome Work! Very Well Spoken, Said, and Put Together....I think I agree 100% and this would be my advice

I've watched a couple of vids on K/D and can already tell this is one of the best vids. Some guys are so lazy, one player gave his best class set up inside 2mins then left another 10mins of gameplay😂 fckn nonsense. SUBBED. Keep up the good work!

I love your videos and they have really helped me!

My tip is play War so you can just have fun without worrying about KD, I love war and one of the reasons I play and enjoy this game

This game is getting hammered at the moment, I actually like it a lot

Great video. My skills are awful but I keep working on good habits vs. my long standing bad habits. KD is awful. Need to play more than 2-4 hours a week.

A great strategy in my opinion is go with the s mine for lethal. How op was the bouncing Betty in the early BO2 days before people learned how to counter it? The s mine is even harder to see and harder to avoid. Especially with less people running flack jacket (hunker) in this game due to not having 3 perks available for use. I get free kills all the time with them. U don't have to worry about cook time for a frag leaving u defenseless. And it will watch your back when ur in a room and alert u of nearby enemies when it goes off. U cant easily rush in this game the way you could in advanced movement CODs. Getting around the map is hard and will get u picked off, especially by op quick scopers. I find more success in locking down an area of a map and setting down an S mine at one of the entrances or pathways nearby. Not necessarily camping lol but more so map control. That one guy that was about to come from behind u with a bayonet just got taken care of thanks to ur little buddy. And the extra 5 or 6 kills a match will definitely help to keep ur kd up

I mostly play hardcore mode so using the mini map to know where everyone is positioned is useless unless recon is used. However I feel like the lack of the mini map in HC mode makes you rely more on your instincts which personally for me made me a better player. Everything just feels fluid & I just react on the situation.

Another good one Ace! I use your Aiming drill regularly over the past few CODs and it helps, no doubt. I only wish I could master "strafing" I just don't get it, when I try the result is I spray bullets all over the room until the other guy kills me... Any tips on this? I agree it is important to evaluate, I think it is equally important to analyze what you did right as well - it sets a positive attitude and helps you repeat that positive behaviour. This will result in move confidence - the old "I can do it attitude". Thanks

Really good video man! Always doing great content, keep it up 👍👌

Good stuff homie, Keep up the awesome work! 🤘🏽

Thanks for the video man your awesome you’re right gotta learn from my mistakes and stop losing my cool because of the bad situations I put myself in

I'll be honest, 99.9% of the time I die, I think it's my fault. Mostly due to accuracy, but sometimes due to some flanking maneuver I hadn't anticipated, or those goddamn S-mines everywhere. However, I always forget the other part: be critical and evaluate how I could have done things better. I really appreciate this video and the reminder. Oh, and the strafing tip. I never considered that.

I have a 3.3 only because I play TDM. These maps are brutal for objective game modes given how small they are.

I mainly stick to the edge of the map. I'll run right then I'll run left then I'll change things up. I mainly play Hardcore Domination or Hardcore TDM

Why are you guys watching this video if all you are gonna do is cry about the game

Very good play, u are a pretty good player and u are right.Make a lot of sense with what you were explaining ON YOUR MOVEMENT.

Play with friends? It can help if they are good enough in supporting.

Playing smart. withdrawing/disengaging from some firefights when you are at a disadvantage . Playing a bit of a gorilla war fair. Hit them a bit from the left then a bit from the right. Then hit them sideways when they least expect it. I think the most important part is to have fun! :)

Guys every cod game has been super buggy until about a year after release. Ww2 is my favorite. The story is the best of all cod games. The new game modes give newer players objective based games like war for instance instead of jumping into snd dying and having to spectate until next round plus it’s easier to level up too. Ww2 really killed a lot of things people fussed about in older games like having it set to where some of the perks are in certain divisions so that it’s not ridiculously over powered. Sledgehammer did way better on their first game than treyarch did after multiple failed attempts. Treyarch was too bland and predictable. Very great job from sledge.

Playing this for the first time because MW SBMM, team balancing, and camping have ruined it. WW2 is much more fun lately.

The last tip is by far the best one :) 100% agree

What's the point of going for good stats when no one can view them in this game?

I feel like this really helped. Thanks Ace

Hi Ace. Thanks for another great video as always. I do your aiming drill before I play online. Do you have any tips / drills for snapping from target to target other than just play the game? It is easy enough to hit 4 or 5 consecutive shots for 1 bot / person, but if it takes 3 seconds to snap on a target or you miss the first 2 or 3 shots then it all goes to pieces. Keep up the great work.

I go where I know enemies won't be, so I can get to their spawn and kill them from behind. This is mostly if I'm playing with a shotgun or SMG.

I think most of it goes to your team if you have a crappy team and enimies enter your spawn they can walk up behind you and kill you but if you have a good team then you wont really have to worry because you are able to wach out infront of you and not having to worry about behind you

Awesome video guy. Nice tips

First thing's first, if you have awful hit reg like a lot of people do, especially on pc, because the game is poorly made, then it is pointless trying to improve as such. Since this affects not just k/d but also spm. If you're going round capturing points in dom or doing all sorts in war, if you can't kill people in the correct number they should die in, then capturing or defending becomes nearly impossible since you will die because your shots do not register, so you basically can't defend your self. Which then means you finish without many kills or captures/defends, bringing your spm right down.

MarkOfJ said that this game has random gunfights, too many routes to consider and if you pre aim all the time you will have the advantage speaking of connections, I have a 4mg down 1mg up ADSL (yes believe it or not) but I have a 2.14 KD so control what you can potentially control.

Great video, Ace. The sprint out times in this game are an absolute travesty.

Just keep playing and find setups you're comfortable playing (try everything!) and watch kill cams and think what you just did wrong or what you could've done better. When you recognize multiple times that you got killed for the same reason, for example caught reloading, you will start to learn and actually plan your reloads better.

Run Infanty, Ordinance, e-drop, and run with a team. Instant K/D boost.
