↖ Importance of Setting Adjustments
Most gamers overlook the effect fine-tuning their in-game settings can have on precision and responsiveness. Even simple adjustments can have a large impact aim and responsiveness. The optimal settings can make your aim feel sticky, which is helpful when needing to quickly and accurately lock onto to enemies. Try these tip for a couple of matches and you will see a noticeable amount of difference.
↖ Controller Settings: The Foundation of Accuracy
Changes made to controller settings impact game performance. Let's see how to go about it step by step:
↖ - Stick Sensitivity (Horizontal & Vertical)
Recommendation: Set to a level that feels comfortable for you.
With high sensitivity, character movement speed is fast, but it is difficult to aim effectively.
With low sensitivity, aiming is much easier but character movement can feel sluggish.
Personal Tip: we play at 1.9 horizontal and vertical sensitivity. It has proved good in most situations we have encountered.
↖ - Turn Off Controller Vibration
Why? Vibration skews thumb positioning and makes the aim less precise.
Pro Tip: I have set this off for every game since Black Ops 2, and my aim keeps improving. I know it feels strange at first, but once you adjust to the improved control, the results are undeniable.
↖ - Disable Trigger Effects
If you have a haptic controller, the trigger effects can be fun but do create a resistance that can slow down your reaction speed during a gun fight. Turn them off.
↖ - Dead Zones
Left Stick Minimum: This value should be set as low as possible without inducing stick drift. For me personally, that would be 5.
Left Stick Maximum: Change this to 35 so that you can control your movement better during tactical sprints.
Right Stick Minimum: I recommend you keep this value to 6 for best performance, but does between 5 and 15 should be fine. Don't set this to 0 as this can screw your aim assist.
Right Stick Maximum: For best range of motion leave this value at 100.
Trigger Dead Zones: Change both of your trigger dead zones to 0 so that your gun can fire when you pull the trigger.
↖ Advanced Aiming Settings
Let's go over some advanced settings that might give you an edge over the competition.
↖ - Sensitivity Multipliers
This makes it much better to control vehicles and other tools (Hell storms), and lower the amount of the sensitivity multiplier to 0.45.
↖ - ADS Sensitivity Multiplier
For aiming down sight (ADS) adjust this to 0.90. This allows for smoother aiming and precise movements while targeting enemies.
↖ - Aim Response Curve Type
The Gradual setting is recommended to make the transition from hip-fire sensitivity to ADS sensitivity smoother. "Instant" is not recommended as it can change your sensitivity too quickly and throw your aim off.
↖ - Response Curve Type
Use Linear and set the slope scale to 1.0. Many people prefer "Dynamic" but I find that Linear gives the most predictable results.
↖ - Custom Sensitivity Per Zoom
Adjust this to 0.90 for iron sights and red dots to better manage close range engagements.
↖ Improve Loadout Settings to Accuracy
Adjusting loadout settings isn't the only way to improve your aim, the right attachments on your weapons also play an important role.
↖ - Equip the Precision Foregrip
This attachment gives more control over the weapon during aiming, eliminating idle sway. Without a foregrip, your weapon will sway back and forth, making it difficult to hit certain targets.
↖ - Adjust Your Class Setup
You may want to consider some highly accurate low recoil weapons.
Equip stability enhancing and sway reducing attachments like precision barrels and stocks.
↖ Shooting Your Shot – Strategy and Precision
Although their effects may be negligible and microscopic, your interface options can make a significant difference in your gameplay.
↖ - Enable Center Dot
Select your interface settings and open Center Dot option. Set the dot size to the largest value. A dot will now be displayed at the center and it can assist you in not only aiming, but also in getting ready to aim as it's beneficial to your shot lining.
↖ - Adjust Crosshair Color
Select a distinctive color for your crosshair that is antagonistic to most of the map's environments:
Yellow: That most obvious color that will capture your attention, guaranteed to always be eye catching.
Fuchsia (Purple): Is and will always be very low in percentage and quantity in most maps textures, hence enabling you to track with ease.
Use the Hex Code for yellow: #FFFF00.
↖ Amplifying Focus via Customization Color
In the setting general menu customize and use Filter 2 under Color Customization section. It filters and enhances more vibrant colors, thus making enemies, objectives and other key entities within the game apparent.
↖ Conclusion
Every adjustment you make is essential, thus now you understand everything is intricately intertwined with one another. Finding what brings you the most efficient outcome is optimal in Call of Duty: BlackOps6. From level of sensitivity to your loadout to your interface everything has an impact on your accuracy and also the interface settings detail are a wonderful foundation to build on.
