Current Events > C÷D: You turn up look sensitivity right away in console games

(+) Yeah! (+)

C.

It's always so low in every game by default.

I'm not sure I've ever played a console game where that was a thing
---

I usually turn it down.

Edit: I'm dumb, I didn't read the console part. In that case, yes, I usually turn it up.

I am fairly certain I've never changed the look sensitivity in Mario Kart.

Or Animal Crossing.

I try default for a moment to form a base line as everyone has to have weird deadzones/acceleration/etc. If it's too sluggish or twitchy I can just bump it up/down and figure out if that's too much or not enough based on what the default was and how much I changed it. Cranking it up or down instantly can lead to controls being erratic and potentially hindering as you faff about with it. Plus using the two results narrows down any fine tuning a bit easier.

Also adding to this I tend to try the rule of 2. Just an example, if there's a slider from 1-10 and the default is 4. If it seems like it could be improved, try 6, if that feels a bit too much, then simply go down to 5. If 5 is still slow then pick your pref between 5 and 6 as you now know how both feel. Further adjustments can be made, but it gets it pretty close for a start.

Mileage may vary depending on the game ofcourse.

Almost always especially for FPS games like CoD. The default setting are slow as molasses for the casual players >_>

Gotta hit the sensitivity way up and invert vertical axis camera. Also switch crouch/knife

i usually turn it down

What is look sensitivity?

What is look sensitivity?

Right stick sensitivity, aka how fast the camera moves when you move the right stick. It's mostly noticeable in shooters, but can be fairly annoying in some rpgs too.

Mine's never set below an 8.

D, it's usually fine for me.

Mouse sensitivity I usually change. But I don't really have it super consistent between games.

D. Main thing I do is turn off vibration, check the controls, and turn on subtitles if the game has voice acting.

Although I haven't played anything on console this past generation.

I always do subtitles too lol. Dialog is always so quiet and explosions so loud.

I always try the default controls first

Gotta try things out before messing with the settings... except text speed, it's always too slow.
