A Call of Duty player is only as good as their controller settings allow them to be.
You could be just a few settings tweaks away from becoming the best CoD player you’ve ever been. It’s important to experiment with some of the game’s options to see what works best for you. Settings like ADS Sensitivity and button layout are huge, so it’s up to you to find what works best for your playstyle.
Whether you’re using a Scuf controller, a DualShock 4, or an Xbox Elite, it’s important to have the right game settings when playing in Warzone or even Modern Warfare to help maximize your chances for success.
Here are some suggestions on how to set up your controller settings for success and wins in Warzone or Modern Warfare multiplayer in the summer of 2022.

Sensitivity is the most personal setting here. Sometimes it fluctuates, with many players adjusting their sensitivity to lower or higher settings over time. It’s suggested to gradually increase or decrease your sensitivity setting by small increments until you find the perfect sweet spot for your own thumbs. The same can be said for the Deadzone setting, which adjusts how much you have to move the stick for the control to take effect.
