Black Ops 6 is shaking everything up in Call of Duty with omnimovement, leaning harder than ever into the “movement is king” meta in CoD that began over the past few years.
You can sprint, slide, and dive in any direction with omnimovement, so if you want to be at the top of your game in BO6, you need to master your controller settings to get the best movement possible.
Buckle up and get ready to read, because we’ve got you set up with a full, extensive list of all the best controller settings in Black Ops 6.
Best Black Ops 6 controller settings
Controller settings
- Inputs
- Button Layout: Tactical
- Stick Layout: Default
- Horizontal Stick Sensitivity: 6
- Vertical Stick Sensitivity: 7
- Simplified Controls: off
- Low Motor Strain: Off
- L1 Button Ping: Off
- Swap L1/R1 with L2/R2: Personal preference
- Controller
- Controller Vibration: Personal preference
- Trigger Effect: Off
- Deadzone Inputs: Personal preference
BO6 feels like a game where higher sensitivity will be important because of omnimovement: you want to be able to snap aim at someone when you dive, and you also want to snap your aim towards someone diving near you.
Aiming settings
- Sensitivity Multiplier
- Ground Vehicles Sensitivity Multiplier: 1.00
- Air Scorestreak Sensitivity Multiplier: 1.00
- Tablet Sensitivity Multiplier: 1.00
- ADS Sensitivity Multiplier: 0.90 or 0.95
- ADS Sens. Multiplier (Focus): 1.00
- Look Inversion: Personal preference
- Aiming
- Look Inversion: Personal preference
- ADS Sensitivity Transition Timing: Instant
- Aim Response Curve Type: Dynamic
- Aim Response Curve Slope Scale: 1.00
- Custom Sensitivity Per Zoom: Personal preference
- Aim Assist
- Motion Sensor
- Motion Sensor Behavior: Off
It’s important to not have a lower ADS Sensitivity Multiplier in this CoD for the same reasons stated above. Aim Assist is now more important than ever with omnimovement, so make sure to tune that to your standards, too.
Movement settings
- Intelligent Movement
- Sprint Assist: Off
- Mantle Assist: Off
- Crouch Assist: Off
- Movement Behaviors
- Automatic Airborne Mantle: On
- Slide/Dive Behavior: Tap to Slide
- Auto Door Peek: On
- Advanced Movement Settings
- Sprint/Tactical Sprint Behavior: Toggle
- Auto Move Forward: Off
- Sprint Restore: On
- Slide Maintains Sprint:On
- Tactical Sprint Behavior: Single Tap
- Plunging Underwater: Trigger
- Sprinting Door Bash: On
- Vehicle Behaviors
- Vehicle Camera Recenter: Short Delay
- Camera Initial Position: Free Look
Feel free to try out the Intelligent Movement settings if you’re a newer player. If you’re a seasoned CoD veteran, though, you will likely want to stick with what you know, and that’s what I’ve done here.
Combat settings
- Combat Behaviors
- Aim Down Sight Behavior: Hold
- Weapon Mount Activation: ADS + Melee
- Quick C4 Detonation: Grouped
- Equipment Behavior: Hold
- Manual Fire Behavior: Press
- Advanced Settings
- Focus Behavior: Hold
- Change Up Directional Button Behavior: Ping
- Change Zoom Activation: Sprint/Tactical Sprint/Focus
- Weapon Mount Exit: Instant
- Interact/Reload Behavior: Tap to Reload
- Sprint Cancels Reload: Off
- ADS Stick Swap: Off
- Depleted Ammo Weapon Switch: On
- Scorestreaks Reordering: Numerical Order
- Dedicated Melee Weapon Behavior: Hold Melee
- Swap Body Shield and Execution Behavior: On
A lot of this is also personal preference, so I’ve listed most of the default options here, save for that last one. By default, you have to double tap for executions in BO6, and for the last few years that’s been a button-hold prompt.
