Best Controller Settings for the XDefiant Open Beta!

The XDefiant Open Beta officially starts tomorrow (June 21st) and today I wanted to share the best settings I've found for me on controller (PS5) to help get you on track with your settings. Obviously, many of these settings will come down to preference so I encourage you to make adjustments as needed to better suit you!

As a CoD fan, XDefiant is what we need. I want this game to be amazing so that we get a back-to-form shooter. CoD as gotten too comfortable being the last big atcade shooter other than Battlefield (to my knowledge). Hopefully with more competition this will light a fire under CoD & BF to make better games going foward. Excited to try the beta tomorrow for myself.

If you stick with the game will you do the gun guide series for it, at launch obviously.

CoD needs competition, BADLY. Hopefully this game can be that game some of us were waiting for.

I desperately needed these settings. I felt like the "aim assist" in the last beta was actually fighting my aim and I was basically outlining targets on top of the terrible netcode.

I like the detailed stats on your class set up and how you're able to see everything that's important!

[JxmmysFaded]

With all those settings and acceleration at 50% with an s curve pattern is smooth

5:16, gotta love the nod to the rabbids 🙂

The game feels soooo much better with those input lag and aim assist fixes they made

[DougFunys]

[firekeeperenthusiast]

[dannyhogs]

Far Cry at the sport museum is looking good

[andyw]

Any way to turn off motion blur? I can't find a setting for it

[TatmanTheResQ]

This game is the only reason I'm still subscribed to you. Nothing against you or your work... I just can't stand CoD anymore. Hoping this game does well and you can keep making content about it!

First time playing beta, how do I download on PS5, I see XDefiant in the store but there is now download button? Please help?

[PrdigyZRX]

Definitely time to play XDefiant... oh I can't wait to play an arcade shooter that is NOT MWII... especially since cod doesn't even feel like an arcade shooter anymore

I'm glad I get to play today... cause I have to work Wednesday and Thursday 12 hour shifts... so I'll probably get about an hour per day for those days... so today (for sure) and Friday (hopefully) I'll get to actually play some XDefiant.... I really hope they extend the open beta into the weekend

I thought the beta was in July. Excited for tomorrow

Saw you in the lobby earlier, said hi. If you didn't hear me, hello Ace.

Default on 25, they definitely changed it & I agree with the vibration, for every game lol, kills your battery life quicker too. I wonder if we'll get to turn off cross play in this upcoming beta, personally I can careless. It's not like it's a game like a BR where if you die once your sent back to the lobby or have to await until you get respawned back.
