ACTIVISION

Controller settings are a vital aspect of Warzone success that you won’t want to ignore.

Inputs

• Button Layout Preset: Tactical
  • Custom Button Layout: Default
• L1 Ping Button: Off
• Flip L1/R1 with L2/R2: Off – If you play with claw grip or want faster button press time, you should turn this On
• Stick Layout Preset: Default
• Controller Vibration: Off
• Trigger Effect (PS5): Off
• Deadzone Inputs: Try using the ‘Test Stick Deadzone’ to see which values fit your controller.

Aiming

• Horizontal Stick Sensitivity: 6
• Vertical Stick Sensitivity: 6
• ADS Sensitivity Multiplier: 0.9
• Sensitivity Multiplier:
  • Third Person: 1.00
  • Ground Vehicles: 1.00
  • Air Killstreak: 1.00
  • Tablet: 1.00
• Verticle Aim Axis:
  • On Foot: Standard
  • Third Person: Standard
  • Ground Vehicles: Standard
  • Air Vehicles: Standard
• Tactical Stance Sensitivity Multiplier: 1.00
• Aim Response Curve Type: Dynamic
• ADS Sens. Multiplier (Focus): 1.00
• ADS Sensitivity Transition Timing: Instant
• Custom Sensitivity Per Zoom: Increase if you feel sensitivity with higher optical zoom is too slow

Aim Assist

• Target Aim Assist: On
• Aim Assist Type: Black Ops
• ADS Aim Assist: On
• Third Person ADS Correction Type: Assist

Motion Sensor Aiming

• Motion Sensor Behavior: Off
• Motion Sensor Advanced Settings: Default

The Warzone Sensitivity you choose comes down to preference, but we find 6 an excellent place to start. You can fine-tune the setting as you play to find what feels most comfortable for you.

Further, setting your ADS Sensitivity Multiplier just below your Sensitivity will allow you to be more accurate from range when taking long-range fights across Urzikstan. The higher your base sensitivity, the lower you may want your ADS multiplier.

We also highly recommend the Tactical Button Layout Preset, as this allows you to Slide/Dive or even crouch while keeping your thumb on the right stick to aim, ready for enemies.

Best aim assist type for Warzone

ACTIVISION

We recommend experimenting with controller sensitivity to find out what works best for you.

You’ll want to make sure you have aim assist turned on in Warzone but you can take full advantage of it by choosing the best aim assist type. Here’s a breakdown of what each Warzone aim assist type means:

• Default: Traditional aim slowdown near target used in Modern Warfare games.
• Precision: Strong aim slowdown that only kicks in when aiming closer to the target. Best for accurate players.
• Focusing: Strong aim slowdown that also kicks in when narrowly missing the target. Best for players new to analog aiming.
• Black Ops: Traditional aim slowdown near target used in Black Ops games.

No matter your skill level, Black Ops and Default can equally be considered Warzone’s best aim assist type, as the two are very similar, so it’s preference-based.

Focusing will be best for players who are new to shooters, but you should move away from it as soon as you become more comfortable and the aim assist feels too strong.

Best Warzone Aim Response Curve controller setting

Warzone players can take advantage of three types of Aim Response Curve that change how the aim rate responds to their thumbstick movements. Here’s a breakdown of the three types you’ll find in Warzone:

• Standard: Simple power curve map from aim stick to aim rate.
• Linear: Aim stick maps directly to aim rate.
• Dynamic: Reverse S-curve mapping for fine aim rate control.

Standard will feel the most natural for many Call of Duty players, but we recommend switching over to Dynamic. This setting perfectly complements Warzone’s aim assist and allows for much finer control. It’s always worth trying Linear, but we wouldn’t recommend it over Dynamic or Standard.

Best FOV setting for Warzone controller players

Warzone also features the FOV slider for console players, allowing them to increase how much of the world they can see around them. But just because it goes all the way to 120 doesn’t mean it’s the best option.

If playing Warzone on a controller, we recommend anywhere in the range of 100-115 FOV. With how large Urzikstan is, far-off targets will appear particularly small if the FOV is cranked to 120, so it will be hard to stay accurate when only using your thumbs.

How to find best controller settings in Warzone

ACTIVISION

Rust is the perfect place to warm up and find the best settings.

While the Warzone controller settings listed above are a great place to start, the same settings don’t apply to everyone, so you can find the best controller settings by simply playing the game.

However, if you own Modern Warfare 3, then you can hop into a small map such as Rust or Shipment and fight low-level bots until you’re comfortable.

Here’s what to do:

1. Launch Modern Warfare 3
2. Click Private Match and then Create New Private Match
3. Select Free-For-All
4. Under Game Set Up:
   • Map: Rust
   • Time Limit: Unlimited
   • Score Limit: Unlimited
   • Radar Always On: Directional
   • Spawn Ammo Mags: Max
   • Bots: Max
   • Bot Level: Recruit
