Best Settings
Recommended Settings to Adjust
When starting the game, it would be best to adjust settings according to your preference. Some settings worth checking out include:
| Settings | Description |
|---|---|
| Motion Blur | Very useful for players prone to motion sickness. |
| Aim Sensitivity | Vital in any first person shooter, make sure to adjust this according to your preference. |
| Enhanced Targeting | Enable this to make hitting enemies easier. |
| Empowered Attacks | Makes it easier for your attacks to stagger enemies. |
| Colorblind Rendering Mode | Provides Colorblind Assistance. Available options include Protanopia, Deuteranopia, and Tritanopia. |
| Aim Assist | Want to test your skills? Turn this off to make aiming more challenging! |
| Depth of Field Motion Blur Environmental Screen Shake Camera Shake Amount |
Turn these off to enhance the clarity of your gameplay visuals, especially in hectic fights. |
Use the World Desaturation Settings
One particularly impactful setting is World Desaturation, found under the Game tab. This feature enhances visual clarity by highlighting important objects that can lead to secrets like breakable walls and interactable valves/levers. This can also make explosive barrels easier to spot during fights.
It is recommended to have Hazard, Interactable, and Shield Breakable on with an A color setting from 10% - 50% and the rest disabled.
