Best controller settings
Black Ops 7 matches are very fast-paced, and you’ll need the best controller settings to ensure your aim is on point and you can snap onto targets with the game’s best weapons.
Here’s a breakdown of every setting you should run in Season 1.
Best BO7 controller settings
Inputs
Setting | Best option |
|---|---|
Aiming Input Device | Controller |
Button Layout | Default Flipped |
To ensure you’ll be shooting with as little delay as possible, it’s worth using the Default Flipped preset to use the bumpers instead of the full trigger. There’s less travel time to press the button, so you’ll be able to pull the trigger faster.
Deadzone inputs
Setting | Best option |
|---|---|
Left Stick Min | 5 |
Left Stick Max | 99 |
Reducing the dead zones on your controller means you don’t have to move the stick as much to make the game react.
Ideally, you want to min-max these values, but it can lead to stick drift. In this situation, simply raise the value gradually until the issue is resolved.
Aiming
Sensitivity Multiplier
Setting | Best option |
|---|---|
Third Person Sensitivity Multiplier | 1.00 |
Ground Vehicles | 1.00 |
Aiming Advanced Settings
Setting | Best option |
|---|---|
Look Inversion (On Foot) | Standard |
ADS Sensitivity Transition Timing | Instant |
Aim Assist
Setting | Best option |
|---|---|
Target Aim Assist | On |
ADS Aim Assist | On |
Movement
Setting | Best option |
|---|---|
Sprint Assist | Off |
Sprint Assist Delay | 0 |
Combat Behaviours
Setting | Best option |
|---|---|
Aim Down Sight Behavior | Hold |
Weapon Mount Activation | ADS + Melee |
Overlays Behaviour
Setting | Option |

Inventory Control | Directional Buttons |
Where to find and test controller settings
To find your settings, hit the pause or start button and then head over to the Settings tab marked with a cog symbol. From there, you’ll see Controller Settings listed on the menu, underneath Graphics and above Audio.
To test your options, the best way is to head into a match, as you won’t know if it’s perfect until you try and aim targets that move realistically. However, be sure to head into the Firing Range first, as this will at least give you a feel for the sensitivity.
