Sensitivity On Console

After the FOV change that was amazing btw I feel like they should also let us console players increase our sensitivity more. Especially in high mmr with killers that require more precision than others.

    The game's pushing 8 years old and has worse controller options than games that came out in the early 2000's. I have very little hope for this honestly.

    As a controller player (on PC, don't taunt me, I don't have a desk, I play with my TV screen), this is one of the things that prevent to play constantly good

    Had to change my binds (the famous problem : dropping the pallet instead of healing the mate)

    Can't 360, I watched some tutorials with controllers but it's far less effective than with keyboard

    I can't properly play with huntress, Deathslinger, Blight, twins, Oni. I read that some people actually lower their sensitivity to be more precise, never done that, maybe it's the right thing to do

    I've found I need different sensitivity settings for each killer. 100 for Oni, 70 for Huntress, that sort of thing. So you'll have to experiment some to see what works for you.

    For me the major problem is I simply cannot turn or react fast enough in many situations, even at 100% sensitivity. Makes all of the killers more frustrating for me, and ones like Singularity feel unplayable.

    This is why many wanted MNK on console, but that's never happening. Stuff like this is why the devs hide killrate between console and pc

    Playing Oni and Blight makes me so frustrated as they are quite literally just worse on console and there’s no way around that.

    I watch myself get 180 flicked by these killers on PC and it is physically not possible to do this on controller as the sensitivity is just not anywhere close to high enough even at max.

    Just turns me off so hard from playing them and it sucks because I really like fast paced gameplay.

    There is no denying all DBD killers are just better ran with a mouse. There are many motions and so-called "techs" that cannot be replicated with the current settings with a controller on console. Skill expression is hampered and capped. I've always believed their killer powers have been crafted with M&K in mind only.

    That rant done, with will and lots of practice most of the killers can be played very effectively. I only consider Singularity unplayable on console, because the recent changes to Trickster dragged him barely above Singularity.

    Agreed. Singularity is an absolute headache on console, Trickster doesn’t feel too terrible anymore but I more so just don’t enjoy playing him in general so I can’t speak on him too much.

    Agree 100%. Especially on tight loops that you know pc players would hit and you can’t makes it extremely frustrating to play.
