Best controller settings for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Season 2

September 30, 2024

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s Season 2 has launched with a number of exciting additions. Players will need to make the necessary updates to their controller settings in order to stay up to date with all of these changes and maintain competitiveness in the game. Fortunately, the game provides a good amount of customizable choices, allowing users to build them up according to their unique preferences.

With the native crossplay compatibility provided by Modern Warfare 2, players on consoles (using controllers) and PCs (either using a mouse and keyboard or a controller) can participate in the same lobby. However, controller players must make sure that their settings are set up appropriately to stand a chance against players that use a mouse or keyboard due to the precise advantage of using a mouse for shooting.

Set your controller settings to its best to conquer Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Season 2

As was previously said, controllers have very few advantages over gamers who use a mouse and keyboard. The most recent Modern Warfare 2 update introduced a significant amount of adjustments and changes, including new maps, weaponry, and more, which affected the gameplay’s overall flow. This is precisely why periodically adjusting the game’s settings is necessary.

In the end, the controller is what allows gamers to interact with the game when it comes to gaming. As a result, whenever new seasons and updates with gameplay-altering effects are introduced, users must ensure that their controller settings are updated.
