Best Modern Warfare 3 Controller Settings

Modern Warfare 3 is right around the corner and with its launch we expect players to hit the ground running. Players who favor the controller over the mouse and keyboard will want to know what thebest Modern Warfare 3 controller settings. Let’s take a look at our setup.

Controller settings can be largely personal preference. Sensitivity, Aim Assist Type, and Deadzone settings are some that will change from controller to controller. With that being said, we wanted to compile the best settings to dominate with all the newModern Warfare 3 weapons.

Deadzone Inputs

The Deadzone refers to the amount you’re able to move your thumb sticks in any given direction without prompting a movement. You will want to reduce the Deadzone to its absolute minimum to get the fastest and most accurate inputs possible. Thankfully, Modern Warfare 3 introduces a Deadzone Test.

Aiming, sensitivity, and most settings on this list are optional, it will depend from person to person. It’s important to feel comfortable with your controller rather than follow an arbitrary list, so take these settings with a grain of salt and test a range of sensitivities that fit your gameplay. One setting to ensure to keep on is theAim Response Curve Type, be sure to set it toDynamicto provide a smoother aim.

Aim Assist

TheBlack Ops Aim Assist Typeis my personal favorite and has a large amount of stickiness to its assist. However, reports from other players swear by the defaultModern Warfare Assist Type. Give them both a try in the shooting range and make your decision.

Movement Behaviors

Once again there is a lot of freedom here to test what works best for you.Automatic Sprintset toAutomatic Tactical Sprintis a personal favorite to further smooth theMW3 movement mechanics. Allowing you to traverse thenew reimagined mapsin record time. However, even close friends dislike this option. It goes to show that there is very little competitive edge you can get from these settings.

Combat Behaviors

The single setting here that I wish to praise is theInteract/Reload Behaviorset toPrioritize Reload. I cannot stress how many times I have tried to reload my weapon only to pick up another gun. Which resulted in an embarrassing number of deaths.
