No matter which platform you choose to play Call of Duty<\/em> on, having the best controller settings<\/strong> possible is imperative to get an advantage over your enemies. <\/p>

Players who prefer to play their FPS games on controllers have been blessed with a slew of new options for customization in settings throughout the years. Modern Warfare 2<\/em> raises the bar yet again with a ton of ways to form how you play on the sticks.<\/p>

The controller customization options in MW2 <\/em>are surprisingly deep, but thankfully, they don’t need much tweaking. If you want to, though, you can really get in the weeds and tweak them to tailor it to your specific playstyle and even what kind of controller you have.<\/p>

A lot of the controller settings may come down to personal preference. But we have a great baseline of controller settings to try out and slightly tweak to your own usage after just a few matches of MW2 <\/em>multiplayer, or even Warzone<\/em> battle royale, since the games play the same.<\/p>

Here are the best settings for controller players to use in MW2<\/em> and Warzone.<\/em><\/p>

Players who prefer to play their FPS games on controllers have been blessed with a slew of new options for customization in settings throughout the years. Modern Warfare 2 raises the bar yet again with a ton of ways to form how you play on the sticks. The controller customization options in MW2 are surprisingly deep, but thankfully, they don't need much tweaking. If you want to, though, you can really get in the weeds and tweak them to tailor it to your specific playstyle and even what kind of controller you have. A lot of the controller settings may come down to personal preference. But we have a great baseline of controller settings to try out and slightly tweak to your own usage after just a few matches of MW2 multiplayer, or even Warzone battle royale, since the games play the same. Here are the best settings for controller players to use in MW2 and Warzone. Best controller settings for MW2 season 4 MW2 Controller settings The base controller settings in MW2 deal with things like button inputs, stick sensitivity, and gameplay behaviors.
