This includes everything from sensitivity to buttons and actions.

    I never touched anything in the settings and I played just fine

    I'm an xbox player with ~1,300 hours, but I'll translate this all into PS4 buttons. I've had a lot of experience, and some of this is up to preference, but a lot of this is what I use and am used to.

    Killer Settings

    Put your Killer sensitivity anywhere between 85% and 100%. It's mostly up to you, but you need the high sensitivity against 360s and the like.

    As for buttons, that's also for preference, it really doesn't matter that much. Personally, I use R2 as my main attack, and L2 as my power button. R1 is my interact and L1 is my secondary power. Circle is my drop survivor button.

    Survivor Settings

    Survivor sensitivity almost literally doesn't matter. As long as it's 50% or more, it's up to preference.

    Buttons are the part where things get different for survivor. For movement, L2 is crouch and L1 is run. Then, Square is interact with gens, heal, open gates, etc. R2 is the "use item" button. R1 is the skillcheck button. R1 is also the throw pallet/vault button.

    I think I missed some survivor buttons, but I'm not on my xbox right now so it's from memory. Just tell me if there's other controls you want to know

    You activate skills with X.

    Actually, any interaction is done with R1, not Square. And skill checks are L1. Circle to drop your items.

    Thanks Jelly.

    The only button I changed was x to r3 for survivor skills. It was easier to dead hard while moving the camera.


    I'll definitely up the sens to 100% with killer. The only thing bothering me as survivor is that dropping pallets and healing is r1 default. I need to change that, anyone has an idea?

    I...just listed the settings that I use. Not the default buttons. That's what @Eveline asked for.

    Maybe I'll try yours.

    Edit: Which button are you using for a skill?

    I agree with that "killer sensibility between 85% and 100%" statement.

    You NEED that to be able to do quick turns (for example in that "Legion jumps a pallet and a survivor goes on their back and vaults too" situation, you wouldn't be able to hit them otherwise).

    It may be weird and way too sensible in the first 10 matches, and you will probably get disoriented, but once you get used to it, you'll never go back.
