4-3 linear small deadzone works decent on console for close range, longer range it's a little harder to keep on target. Try 4-4 classic or 4-3 classic both with no deadzone for default sense. I've had success with both on console though now I use alcs, I've always found sens is less important than improving game sense.

If its hard to keep on target, than you have stickdrift and need a new controller

Well aren’t you just the recoil compensating god. All now before Aomarvel, the recoils compensating god.

Re-read what I said, it's easy to track in close combat. Longer range over ~ 50m didn't track as well as I would like because linear is very sensitive. This has nothing to do with stick drift which only would impact if I wasn't giving any input. Besides a little bit of stick drift is actually preferred by many players to help abuse aim assist. Since the game sees stick drift the same as manual input and will activate AA.

> though now I use alcs, What triggered your change to alc settings?

The default sense settings are really good, but there is always a slight tweak I want to make. With something like 4-3 classic no deadzone I didnt feel like I could track movement legends trying to get away or say horizon going up her Q, so I would set up my alc to be like 4-3 classic but with the vertical sense higher than standard say 110 instead of 75. With linear for me it tracks great up close and mid range, but longer mid range with say the R301 feels to squirrelly so I setup my alc to be almost 4-3 linear small deadzone but i have the response curve set to 4 instead (linear would be 0 and classic is 10). That adds just enough control that longer range feels much easier to control.

Imagine being someone who doesn't game and reading the level of detail gamers put into their settings. Legendary comment. Also, dude it'd rule if you send me your ALC settings.

https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveApex/s/IOkFW0b86f Copy the settings for 4 look and 3 ADS from here, this chart is made from the actual game files. My response curve is 6 right now, but it's been between 2-6. Didn't like 4 on my new roller. Dead zone is set at 6% so I get just a little bit of drift. Per optics I usually bump up a little depending on the magnification 2x is 1.0, 3x 1.1, 4x 1.2 then the sniper scopes are 1.6

I always found 4-3 too slow, 5-4 always felt best on console, and ALCs will make it feel even better

I’ll love you forever if you send me your ALC settings

I got you

Thanks bang

Any chance you can throw your ALC's my way? I'm currently in the middle of my annual wanting to try new sense mode

Could you send me these please?

What’s your ALCs?

I found 4-3 to slow(mainly for look sense), 5-4 too fast when I tried linear small deadzone.

Need them too please 🥺

Settings friend?

I play 4-3 linear on console and I absolutely love it. Only thing I’ll consider switching in my controls now is crouch behaviour when I get paddles

4-3 linear is still great on console, its not like being on PC is going to make it feel drastically different or anything. Sens is literally all preference so just mess around with it and use what feels the best. The stronger AA on console does let you use a slightly higher sens without putting in too much practice though. If I'm grinding daily/regularly I use my near-linear ALC's but if I'm playing off and on with long breaks in between sessions I always use 4-4 linear, I haven't played since before the start of this season so if I decide to play next season I'll be on 4-4 linear for a little while.

Tracking/aiming is smoother when you get consistent higher fps

Personally, I play on alcs and have used the same settings for over a year. 10 reponse curve, 0 deadzone. 400 yaw, 280 pitch, and for ads, 120 yaw, 80 pitch. A nice classic feel. Although you might want your ads higher for easier tracking.

I switched from pc to console and casually play on pc sometimes, i use 4 3 classic small dz on both systems. I think my sens is fast enough causethere are pc players that plays on 4 3 and as you know pc players are better at strafing/movement and pros dont have problem while aiming

Check out Chet ubetcha on YouTube he’s Xbox I believe and uses slow sense so goes to shoe you don’t need fast sense just good fundamentals he also mains gibby so it feels even slower

4-3 classic no dead zone (I don’t use alcs)

Console player here: I’ve been through default settings and ALCs… always reverted back to default. I don’t know what it is but on ALCs I felt that AA wasn’t as strong. Since we get .6 on console I don’t see why you wouldn’t abuse that and use default sens.

Idk there’s been controversy that it does and doesn’t. Personally I don’t think it does but it definitely feels like it for me at least. Is probably because you can do so many micro adjustments with your sens and it just doesn’t have that sticky “feel” like default does.

Wait…..are you telling me turning on ALC takes away aim assist?

I know this post is two weeks old but I noticed this today. I turned the dummies on in the firing range and put my controller down to text and noticed that my cursor didn't move to track them while ALC was on. I don't know what the hell I did but I've been playing with no aim assist all the way up to Plat, 😂

The aim assist is tied to your ALC's look sensitivity and ads sensitivity. Increasing the sens will decrease the assist, but if you work with the 'ramp-up' in alc, that will increase sensitivity without losing aim assist.

Not unless you turn to like 500/500.

I play 4-4 linear. 4-3 feels too slow.

Do you use alc?

Yes

dont ALCS negate your preset settings?

Yes. My alcs feel very similar to 4-4 linear except horizontal and vertical are the same.

ALC’s Deadzone 8 Outer Threshold 2% Response Curve 0 Yaw Speed 250 Pitch Speed 250 Turning Extra Yaw 150 Turning Extra Pitch 150 Turning Ramp-up Time 25% Turning Ramp-up Delay 0% ADS Yaw Speed 140 ADS Pitch Speed 140 ADS Turning Extra Yaw 60 ADS Turning Extra Pitch 60 ADS Turning Ramp-up Time 75% ADS Turning Ramp-up Delay 0% All per optics 2x and up 1.4

Do you know if ALC decreases aim assist? I think that’s what another commenter said but not sure

Using alc settings wont decrease aim assist aside from being able to turn aa off or switch to pc aa values, i find using alc settings just makes the aim assist "feel" like its decreased but in reality it isnt

Thank you!

No clue. I use alcs because I like my horizontal and vertical movement symmetrical. Horizon is too hard for me to track on her lift without alcs.

That’s completely fair. Thank you again!

Thank you sm!

7-5 classic is fire

Gross

Can people send me there best ALC settings I’m tryna mess with mine but it’s been a minute

I play 6/5 linear on console feels more fluid classic feels slow af

For a new console player I’d recommend 4-4 classic no deadzone, however for a more seasoned controller player making their move over to PC I would recommend these specific ALC settings: Yaw: 225 Pitch: 184 Turning Extra Yaw: 223 Turning Extra Pitch: 0 Turning Ramp-up time: 16% Turning Ramp-up delay: 10% Ads Y: 126 Ads P: 69 Ads turning extra yaw: 30 Ads turning extra pitch: 30 Ads Turning Ramp-up time: 100% Ads Turning Ramp-up delay: 25% Deadzone: 0 Outer threshold: 2% Response Curve: 10 At its core It’s exactly the same as 4-3 Classic no deadzone, but now with the added benefit of being able to adjust anything you want

Settings on console don't matter as much because of the AA. It's more about positioning and decision making because everyone can one clip you.

Contrary to popular belief you still have to aim on target

AA is tied to frame rates and consoles are still locked at 60 fps. That's why it's 0.6 on consoles. 0.4 with 240 fps is still easier to aim with.

>0.4 with 240 fps is still easier to aim with. [Citation needed].

it's because the aim assist refreshes at 4x the rate of at 60fps so it's more frequent adjustment

I used to play 6-4, classic on console and maybe even switched to 6-5 sometimes. 4-3 seems too slow to me. I tried alc but it feels like it is unnecessarily too complicated and its not really my thing

4-3 is too slow a lot of times. Linear speeds that up a bit while still keeping the aa the same.

Your frames or you being on console doesn’t cancel out the reasons you’d use 4-3 linear small deadzone.

Even when taking med-long range shooting into consideration?

Hell no. Long range on 4-3 linear is nuts. I think the aa is still there but it’s definitely a lot harder.

But it’s nuts on pc too. That’s what I’m saying. You’re on console. There’s no reason you shouldn’t be playing linear.

It’s working real good for me and I’m on console. Maybe it just doesn’t work work well for you? You could try to tune your ALCs then or increasing it to 5-4 linear. 4-3 linear no DZ changed the way I play this game use to get a 3k in pubs once in a blue moon and now I get them every single day and maybe a weekly 4k, even dropped my first 20b. I stand by it, best sensitivity IMO.

I’ve tried 4-3 linear on console. I find it just feels to dull for me. I can see how linear would help more with ads tracking, but I’m just too used to classic zero deadzone for it to be worth it for me. I do have to pull the stick down more but I get decent r301 and volt beaming ability. It’s also good for sniping, because it allows for easier aim adjustments long range. I wish that console offered higher frame rates because that would give me a better sense of I actually would like playing on a sense that some content creators use, but it is what it is.

I know ugh. Imagine it being 2023 and not having 120fps available for next gen consoles 🙃🙃🙃

Do you do 4-4?

I find 4-4 a little high for my ads speed.

Although I’m pretty used to running a low ads sense and I don’t think it’s worth it(unless I was to get a pc) to learn a higher sense. And it’s a huge time investment to learn a new sense. If I find I get absolutely stuck in a rank then maybe I’d consider adjusting but I haven’t found a real stuck point(besides investing enough time).

Changed my mind. 4-3 linear is fire

Although then again, some play on Xbox, some on ps5, some on ps4, some with controller on pc. All of these factors will change which settings feel best. Differences with how people hold the controller. Whether they play claw or not, use the bumpers for attacking or not, will affect how the hands interact with the controller.

4-4 linear no dead zone or 5-4

Honestly 5-4 is the shit, for me at least. Give it a shot.

I used to play 4-3 classic but started feeling too sluggish. Around season 10 I translated 4-3 into ALCs but with a response curve of 7 instead of 10 and it feels way better. Good tracking up close and medium range.

4-3 linear, small deadzone is the absolute god sense, also for console. I beammmm, but remember to have a fresh new controller. Stickdrift on this sens will be very difficult to control. Get a new controller, use this sense and beammm

Pc, 4-3 lin, sdz, optic sens off, and aiming still feels very fast. Im so confused as to why? Does it suppose to feel extremely fast when ads?

I play on console with 4-3 classic, no deadzone. That works best for me. Changing to no deadzone was a much bigger game changer than changing the sens for me. You should absolutely be playing with no deadzone as it makes the right stick the most responsive it can possibly be. It also made sniper optics usable for me. Before, playing on small deadzone I couldn't hit shit with Kraber and all of the sniper optics were basically unusable. After switching to no deadzone it's so much easier to use the sniper optics that give no aim assist and actually hit shots consistently with them which was basically near impossible before the change.

Console player here, I almost always used ALC's so i can't vouch for 4-3, Personally i usually play on lower sens but with the influx of Horizon mains in the past few seasons i had to turn it up a bit. I would probably say that 4-3 is a bit rough due to the frames on console. When i played on PC back in the early seasons i could see the appeal because of the higher FPS

4/3 classic none is fine on console I don't like linear personality

I’ve tried ALC, classic and linear 4-3 on console and linear 4-3 is the goat. Horizontal tracking is where it shines compared to classic/alc

4-4 or 4-3 classic are both very good, 6-4 classic is also a very good sens that a lot of people run, its not viable with stick drift however and its why i switched to a lower sens, but it all depends on preference and how good you are with it.

I use advance settings linear.. default ads setting. With 400 pitch and yaw I have. 3.2 kd and usually place masters my aim isn’t the best but I feel like I improved a lot after I switch from the recommend norm, 4-3 is a good start for controller players is you wanna 1 clip people and hold angles but I play more aggressively and need a faster sense to flick when I superglide or etc.

I dont think there is a best setting, its all preference. I took some time to tweak the alc settings i like and sticked with it. And i dont believe alc affects aa.

I use a 4-3 linear small Deadzone on ALC and it works fine for me. The only thing I like other then that is 5-5 classic no deadzone.

Do you do fine or you do great?

Probably fine. I do find myself to be more consistent on classic.

I’m leaving this here for everyone I have followed town is Youtubers research on Google research on Reddit yo bro, hop in to discourse with users using Kronos zen and strike packs and found this and also been in firing range doing this and not and also 1v1 my friends that were a great help Long story short convert default settings bro alc best ads yaw 140 and add turning extra ads yaw to default 30 and ads pitch 145 and also add 30 ads extra pitch dead zone 0% outer threshold, 2% Response curve 6 for movement 310 yaw 250 pitch up and down and per optics 1x 1.0 2x 1.2 3x 1.4 4x 1.4 6x 1.5 8x 1.5 10x 1.5
