Ultimate Settings for the Xbox Elite Series 2 Controller in Halo Infinite Multiplayer
Welcome everyone! I hope you are having a fantastic day and enjoying Halo Infinite multiplayer. In this article, I will share with you the ultimate settings for the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller that will help you play better in Halo Infinite. I have tested various setups and configurations over multiple days to find the best settings for optimal performance in the game. We will cover the physical setup of the controller, controller settings within Halo Infinite, and settings in the Xbox Accessories app. So, let's dive in and level up your gameplay!
Physical Setup of the Elite Series 2 Controller
To begin, let's look at the physical setup of the Elite Series 2 controller. On the back of the controller, set your trigger lock to the third position, which provides the shortest amount of trigger travel. This setting allows you to aim down sight and fire quicker. For the paddles, I recommend using four paddles - two short ones on top and two long ones on the bottom. While it may take some time to get used to four paddles, it provides a significant advantage by allowing you to perform four actions using the rear paddles without taking your thumb off the thumbstick. I have a helpful video on getting used to four paddles, which you can check out later.
Moving to the front of the controller, I prefer using the standard and shortest thumbstick on the left for quicker movement. On the right, I use the Xbox 360 controller-style concave thumbstick, which is slightly taller and offers more control over aim. Adjust the tension for both thumbsticks to the least amount for fast reactions while still maintaining control. If you want a detailed comparison of the thumbsticks and tension adjustments, I have a video on that as well.
For the D-pad, I recommend using the standard cross-shaped D-pad for precise inputs. It is easier to locate the exact position needed to press on this particular D-pad during intense multiplayer matches. That covers the physical setup of the Elite Series 2 controller. Now, let's move on to the controller settings within Halo Infinite.
Halo Infinite Controller Settings
Within Halo Infinite, navigate to the controller tab and keep the default button and thumbstick layouts. No need to change those settings. Turn off vibration if you prefer less feedback while playing. You can also adjust vibration settings within the Xbox Accessories app.
When it comes to movement and aiming, there isn't a specific setting that everyone must change. It mostly comes down to personal preference. However, enabling "hold to crouch" might be beneficial depending on your playstyle. The most crucial section to adjust is sensitivity and acceleration. I recommend increasing the look acceleration to three to turn faster and the look sensitivity to six for quicker general aim. It's common for players to make the mistake of setting sensitivity values too high, resulting in a loss of aim control. So, three and six should provide a good balance. And remember, these values may not be perfect for everyone, but avoid going to extremes in either direction.
For zoom sensitivity, the default value of one usually works well for most players. Feel free to tweak it based on your preferences. Now, let's move on to some essential settings within the Xbox Accessories app.
Xbox Accessories App Settings
On the Xbox Accessories app, you'll find my Halo Infinite profile. Under the mapping section, keep all settings at default. Moving to the left stick settings, leave the sensitivity curve at default but change the calculation to "true diagonals." This setting performs accurate calculations of diagonal values, which works exceptionally well in Halo Infinite.
For the right stick settings, use the aggressive sensitivity curve with the lowest curve adjustment value. This setting significantly improves the overall feel of the curve within the game, making your aim and turn speeds smoother and more natural.
Regarding trigger settings, set the left and right trigger values to 0 and 1, respectively. This, combined with the trigger lock setting mentioned earlier, allows you to aim down sight and fire as quickly as possible on the Series 2 controller.
If you prefer to play without vibration, make sure to turn it off in both Halo Infinite and the Xbox Accessories app.
Lastly, the brightness settings won't affect your gameplay performance, so adjust those according to your personal preference. That concludes the settings for both the Halo Infinite controller and the Xbox Accessories app.
Conclusion
These ultimate settings for the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller in Halo Infinite multiplayer will enhance your gameplay experience. By following the physical setup suggestions and making the recommended changes in the controller settings within Halo Infinite and the Xbox Accessories app, you will have a competitive edge in the game. Remember to find the right balance between sensitivity and control, and feel free to tweak the settings based on your preferences. Now, go out there and conquer the Halo Infinite battlefield with precision and skill!
