What controller settings does ImperialHal use?

First in the ImperialHal controller settings is his button layout, Hal is using the default button layout because he uses a claw grip with no changes at all to the buttons on the controller.

ImperialHal controller settings: Movement/Aiming

  • Look Sensitivity: 4
  • Look Sensitivity (ADS): 3
  • Response Curve: Linear
  • Look Deadzone: None
  • Movement Deadzone: Small
  • Inverted Look: Off
  • Vibration: Off

ImperialHal said that he swapped to Linear from Classic because he felt "handicapped" when using Classic Response Curve. It didn't feel right to him, and he experimented with a range of options to see what suited to him. Linear has a much more raw input. This means when Hal turns his stick it is always the same speed. Whereas Classic slowly increases speed. ImperialHal suggests that Classic is better for beginners to use however.

Hal does recommended that instead of copying this list of ImperialHal Controller settings, new controller players first try 4-2 Linear with small deadzone, then reducing to no deadzone once you get comfortable.

Does ImperialHal use ALCs?

The short answer is No.

The longer answer is still No. However, ImperialHal explains that this is because he feels there are simply just too many settings to figure out in order to find the perfect sensitivity for him. He feels that 4-3 Linear is a lot more consistent, and it works for him. So, that is why there are no ALCs in the ImperialHal Controller Settings.

So, that is the rundown of all of the current ImperialHal Controller settings. Why not give them a go, and see how they feel for you? Just remember - all settings are personal preference!
