Dead Zone Input

Inputs Deadzone:

Stick drift varies for each player’s controller.

First, start on the default Deadzone controls, then turn on the Test Stick Deadzone setting.

This test will give you numbers on the bottom of the left and right stick images.

Then test again to verify you don’t have any more drift.

Lastly, you’ll want L2/R2 set to 0.0 to see to it you’re getting instant activation.

Aiming

For the stick sensitivity, it can vary from player to player.

MW3 gameplay settings

I’d recommend trying out a 6 stick sensitivity and adjusting from there.

Precision and Focus give you a stronger aim assist that only kicks in close to the target.

This can serve as an accessibility option if needed.

MW3 graphics settings

It’s all personal preference here, but I recommend testing somewhere between 90-120.

If your sound is coming through your TV, Home Theater gives you great sound and decent footstep audio.

If you’re using a headset, Headphones Bass Boost is a great option.

MW3 audio settings

You want to hear those footsteps at 100.

Voice Chat

Microphone

Subtitles

This is absolute personal preference.

There are also three subtitle sizes to choose from, so pick what size best suits your needs.
