I'm wondering if you can remove the HUD on Xbox, as I couldn't find a way to deactivate it in the settings and it would be a very useful functionality.
Yes, there is on the immersive controls. Just hold the pause button for a second or two to toggle the hud on and off. Not sure if it works with classic controls though.
Also with a USB keyboard plugged in just press F1 and it removes the full Hud and leaves you with a clean screen.
Also with a USB keyboard you can remove individual parts of the hud such as the speedometer hud or AP counter. The speedometer is Ctrl+F5 and AP counter is Ctrl+F6. The next speed and signal hud can be toggled with Ctrl+F4 to cycle between them.
I could change to keyboard, as it would be a lot easier than a controller and have more keys to use, but is it easily compatible with TSW2 ?
Hold down the button you normally push for the menu screen. That gets rid of everything. In settings you can turn off different things too, I always turn off the signal announcements. And YAY RATP!
