Hey what is going on guys, in this video today
I'm gonna be doing a showcase of my personal
sensitivity and settings. As long as everything
goes to plan this video should be uploaded
roughly 12 hours before the end of season
3 and the beginning of season 4, so I think
it's safe to say that these sensitivity values
and settings are what I'm going to use in
the new season. I always like to give a word
of caution that it usually isn't the best
idea to just blindly copy the sensitivity
values of someone playing PC on controller
if you're on console, but as you're gonna
see, my values are low enough to where I don't
really think it's a huge problem. So, without
further ado, let's get right into it.
Alright so let's start this video off by going
over my sensitivity values, and even though
I can't remember specifically what I changed,
I do that I at least changed 2 or 3 values
from the last time I did a sensitivity update.
So starting off with non-ADS or look sensitivity
as it's officially called in-game. So starting
off with look horizontal and vertical speed
I'm rocking 38% and 36%. And I think these
are still the same values I used last season
but don't quote me on that. So as I alluded
to in the intro, these are definitely pretty
low look sensitivity values as a whole. I
don't think they're like absurdly low to a
point where most people would absolutely hate
them, but when I looked at 10 of the top console
players, it seemed like the average look sens
among those guys were roughly in the 40-45
range. But, when it comes to non-ADS sensitivity,
I personally value a little more control that
the lower sensitivity gives me. Yeah, it probably
makes my flick shotting specifically a little
bit worse, but since the best shotgun in the
game, this season was the charge, flick shotting
wasn't even really possible with that. So
maybe I'll bump it up a bit towards the end
of next season if the pump comes back or something,
but for now, I'm sticking with 38-36. Also
in terms of boosts in this section, I'm using
none whatsoever. Again, when I looked at the
10 top console players a few weeks ago almost
nobody used look sensitivity boosts so I'm
totally in-line with the rest of the crowd
on that. Now we move on to the ADS sensitivity
section and this is one that I know for a
fact I changed from the last video, and at
least by my definition, it was a pretty dramatic
change. So last season I used 8% for both
horizontal and vertical ADS speed which compared
to most people was definitely on the lower
end. And even though I liked it at first because
my AR aim was terrible when I switched from
legacy to linear, as I became more and more
comfortable with that, the slowness of 8%-8%
ADS horizontal and vertical really started
becoming pretty detrimental. So I decided
to bump it up all the way to 14% for both
horizontal and vertical. I used to always
be against making even small changes to my
sensitivity, but I no longer think like that,
I have absolutely loved this change so far,
and my AR aim, in general, feels a lot better
now. And just like in the look sensitivity
section I'm not using any kind of boosts in
here either, pretty much the same story, nobody
really uses boosts because aiming in general
just feels better without them. Then in the
advanced sensitivity section, I'm using linear
for my look input curve and then a 0.00 second
look dampening time. There are definitely
some players that use a look dampening time
over 0 but the majority of people don't. As
I always say the whole point on linear is
to have as little aim acceleration as possible,
so it doesn't really make sense to increase
your aim acceleration by using anything other
than a 0 look dampening time. For move stick
and look stick deadzone I'm using 12% for
both of those. Not too much to say here, as
long as your deadzones are in roughly the
5-15% range it should feel mostly the same.
And my general philosophy for deadzones is
you wanna go as low as possible, but not too
low to where you get stick drift when you're
trying to aim and move. That's gonna be different
for everybody so definitely test different
values out, and or me it's 12-12. The next
section I want to cover is foot controller,
and this is another thing I changed from last
season. After legacy got removed I turned
foot controller off because I basically thought
it was useless. But then when I looked at
a lot of other top console/controller players,
I was really surprised to see that they were
still using it. So about 2-3 weeks ago I decided
to turn it back on, and even though it felt
weird at first, I actually do believe that
it makes your aim slightly smoother. I'm not
gonna lie and pretend it's absolutely a night
and day difference because it isn't, but with
aim, anything that makes you feel even the
slightest bit more comfortable is something
you wanna use. Like I've said many times before
though, this setting is only available on
PS4 and PC on controller so if you're on Xbox,
it, unfortunately, won't even be an option
for you. And then the final sensitivity category
here is building and editing sensitivity.
I believe last season I was using 2.0x for
both of these values, but I've changed that
slightly to 2.0 for the building sensitivity
multiplier and 2.2 for the editing sensitivity
multiplier. Not super high but also not super
low, I think these are pretty standard values
when you consider the fact that my look sensitivity
is on the lower side.
Now let's move onto on to my settings even
though unlike with sensitivity, I really don't
think I've changed a single setting in the
last few months. However starting with graphic
settings, if I did change something it was
probably this. I believe I was using colorblind
last season but now I have it off even though
I change that pretty frequently depending
on however the graphics look in a given season.
Then I have brightness at 105, and you obviously
wanna have motion blur off. Then in the movement
section, I have toggle sprint off, sprint
by default on, sprint cancels reloading off,
and then auto-open doors on. However, except
for sprint by default which I think you should
definitely have on, most of those are basically
just preference. In the combat section, the
most important one here is hold to swap pickup.
I mainly like having this on because it allows
me to quickly pick up guns without rearranging
my inventory at the very beginning of games.
For building the first 2 you obviously wanna
have on and then I personally like confirm
edit on release but the community as a whole
is pretty much split 50/50 on it. Then in
this last settings section which is for some
reason with the sensitivity, I have controller
auto run off, you obviously wanna have builder
pro builds immediately on, and then you also
probably wanna have vibration off as well.
Finally, I'll just quickly show my binds to
wrap this up even though I haven't changed
them at all in a while. I the first section
I edit with left stick, jump with A but that's
bound to my single paddle that I use, and
I pull out my pickaxe by pressing Y. In this
second section, almost all of it is unimportant
so I'll just leave it on the screen for a
few seconds but most of these binds you're
either never going to use or are just super
standard in general. And then finally in the
edit controls section, I select edits with
RT, reset edits with LT, and confirm edits
with RB, but you gotta also remember that
I'm using confirm edit on release, so the
only time I actually press the RB button is
when I'm confirming a reset.
So, I hope you guys enjoyed this video and
if you watched the entire thing be sure to
let me know with a comment down in the comment
section below. As I said in the beginning
this is going to be uploaded about 12 hours
before season 4 is released, so if you watch
it before that are you excited for the new
season? And if you watch it after, what are
your thoughts on season 4 so far? Be sure
