For player insights to get started, dive into the custom profiles I’ve set up on my own DualSense Edge controller to play my favorite games.
As an FPS fan, my setup for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II focus on precision targeting, custom payloads and team communication:
- Variable cap and club sensitivity: I swapped my right cap with a High Dome cap and paired it with the Precision’s sensitivity preset curve for smoother, more precise aiming.
- Stop slider L2/R2: I usually set the stop sliders on both the L2 and R2 buttons to the Short or Medium setting to react more quickly to enemy encounters.
- Back button and button mapping: I find the arrangement of the back buttons for actions like jumping or swapping loads very helpful for my own style of play, so I can keep my thumb on the club during stressful moments. straight.
- fn buttons: When communicating with my team, I often use the Fn buttons to adjust the audio balance between game and chat, so I can alternate between captions and listen to the opposing team’s movements.
When playing action games like God of War RagnarokI tweak my custom configuration to make sure I have important operations at hand:
- Adjust bar sensitivity: Quick preset curve is my favorite bar sensitivity setting for the left and right bars for quick camera adjustments, movement, and aiming. Occasionally, I switch to a preset Dynamic curve while in-game for sequences where I need to aim carefully and also rotate quickly.
- Back button and button mapping: I switched to the Half Dome back buttons because they work well with the way I normally hold the controller, allowing me to quickly dodge or retract my ax while also moving around the map and keeping an eye on enemies.
When loading in fifa 23My focus is on setting skill moves and quick maneuvers:
- Adjust bar sensitivity: I’ve set up my custom profile to use a preset Digital curve for the right stick, which makes it easier for me to use skill moves.
- The slider stops L2/R2 and activates the dead zone: I tweak the trigger dead zones in addition to changing the stop sliders to the Short setting – combining the two helps me trigger the L2 and R2 buttons for faster sprints or shielding.
- Back button and button mapping: I have two designated back buttons for shooting and passing, so I can also perform a skill move while navigating the field.
