Ubisoft has released a small video series with developers that reveal some smart tips about the topics UI customization, matchmaking through the mega map, the consumable wheel as well as the Dark Zone Currency.

An option in the UI customization allows you to auto-hide the HUD when you are out of combat and damage numbers can be turned off.

If you want to group up with other players, you can do that through the mega map matchmaking functionality and as soon players are available, you will receive a notification that you can either accept or ignore.

Don’t forget about the consumables that give you some very nice bonuses during combat situations.

Also IGN has released a nice short video guide about how to dominate the Dark Zone, by considering the following 7 rules.

  1. Know when to go Rogue
  2. Open with a grenade
  3. Group up
  4. When in doubt, run
  5. Know your shortcuts
  6. Spend your DZ Funds
  7. Never trust anyone
