Target visibility and a fluid FPS value are crucial to the Call of Duty: Warzone 2 experience. The maps in-game are huge and consist of various dynamic components. These have a significant impact on visibility and make it difficult to spot targets at a distance. Moreover, due to the open nature of the maps, the FPS can take a hit in some instances.

Since it is a first-person shooter title, both FPS and visibility are quite important. Having high and smoother framerates allow players to track their targets better and also, in some cases, gives them an advantage.

Similarly, enemies can be anywhere on the map, and if players aren't able to spot them on time, their chances of survival go down significantly.

That said, this guide will cover the best settings to use in Warzone 2 for high and stable FPS and clear visibility.
