  • This video is a complete controller / console guide for Destiny 2. Topics include movement, aim, physical setup (e.g. custom controllers), and settings such as sensitivity and button layouts. I feel like there is a lot of controller-specific information that doesn't get a lot of attention these days due to the majority of D2 content creators playing on MnK. People always ask me about the best Destiny controller settings, how to move as a controller player, and how to aim on console, so hopefully this video addresses those questions!
    This video is designed to focus on all the key aspects of console / controller within Destiny 2 so that you can optimize your performance and take your controller game to the next level!

    Another controller tip - don't be afraid to sacrifice some emote slots to get rid of "hold" actions. I put my warlock rift on d-pad down and switch to heavy on d-pad up, the former so I can rift faster than "holding" and never accidentally rift while sliding, the latter so I don't accidentally pull out an empty heavy in a weapon swap mistake

    Just want to clarify that my remark at 3:55 wasn't intended to be insensitive toward colorblind people. I was just making a joke about the surprisingly high amount of players who choose to play with colorblind settings to make the radar yellow simply because they find it to be more noticeable than the red.

    i think 'inverted' is for older players like myself. I always saw the right stick as like a lever to pull or push, not even sure which game started me off doing it. It is second nature to me now and steadying recoil actually feels easier as I am "pushing". You'd be surprised how many play this way, its like being left handed. So thank god the option is still available.

      Most definitely for older players, especially any that played flight sims. Having said that, my 15 year old plays inverted. It can be more natural for some people as it mimics activating the muscles in neck to look up or down.

    The 1v1 private match demonstrations of what you're doing while showing your hands, and then showing the other players view in order to contrast two different techniques is SUPER helpful. I'm sure it's a pain to do vs just capturing actual pvp play, but I felt it was much more illustrative than the normal sort of background pvp play.

    24:27 the reason why the reticle is lower dates back to halo and the vertically of maps. Placing it lower allows the player to have more of what's important on their screen (the beautiful backgrounds) instead of half of it being filled with the ground.

    My advice for sensitivity is keep slowly increasing it until you reach the highest sens that still allows you to consistently hit shots. You might be great on 3 or 4 sens but what you might not realize is that you can be just as accurate if not incredibly close on a sens like 7 or 8 where you then get the best of both worlds

    Just to answer your question of why, I play inverted, always have, because of flight simulator type games where you pull back on the stick to go up, (e.g. X-Wing and Tie Fighter and a very old PC game called Blue Max), so it is more intuitive to me.

    Thank you!! I’ve honestly been waiting for someone to show the controller side of destiny some love because most content creators are on PC. For people who want a “pro” controller. The best one I’ve found so far is the razor wolverine tournament edition. It’s the best feeling one and most reliable. The only downside is kontrol freeks don’t fit well but I used ps4 ones and crammed them on there to where it’s comfortable. Also, the controller is lower priced than most and is usually on sale for $80-$100. Best price I’ve found is on Xbox store with a good account which is $79.99.

Not only does it have the two bumpers on the back that lets you crouch or pop super, you also have two extra ones up top, right next to the triggers, for switching weapons and reloading seamlessly, which effectively eliminates any need for removing your thumbs from the sticks for anything at all. I love it so far

      I have to give props to the Xbox elite controller here. If your on Xbox and can afford to shell out the huge price tag its very worth it IMO. Super customizable and 4 paddles which can take a long time to get used to but are amazing. What I do is buy the elite from best buy and pay the extra $$ for the geek squad warranty. If you ever have anything and I mean anything go wrong with your controller you take it back and get a new one. Then just purchase the plan over again. The price is steep to begin with but you can essentially get a brand new elite controller anytime within a 2 year window for $60.

    I’m coming back to this video after some time. I’m strongly considering the dual sense edge controller for the convex thumbsticks you can swap on.
    They stand just a little taller than the originals by default and I had gotten super used to them from the PS3 days. The new controllers just haven’t felt the same and I think this is a good answer.

    Great video. FYI for those interested. A device I have purchased called Hip Shot Dot basically puts a red suction cup mounted LED on your screen. You can position it for any game. It allows you to see the exact location of a sniper rifle sight in free hand mode. You put the dot on an enemy and when you ADS the sight is dead on. I am a poor player and cannot attest to its value when sniping. It is relatively cheap.

    If you don’t invert your look settings, it means you didn’t start playing FPS games until after 2000. Back in the day, games like quake and such, were inverted by default. That’s why we play that way 😁

      Hmmm i do fall into that category but i always thought it made more sense because its like piloting the body in 3D instead of playing it like its 2D. Inverted drives the head where standard drives the eyes i guess.

    For keeping Targest In Front of You I Highly Recomend High Mobility. For Aiming Acuratly I Recomend Moving Left And Right To Aim Horizontaly And Using Low Sensibility On Controler To Curve A Bit And Focus More Horizontally, This Way You Can Smooth Aim Horizontaly When You oponent is In The Air You Can Aim Also Verticaly By Moving If you Get Close or You Get Far.
    Esencially Your Using Your Movment To Both Aim And Evade, Its Quite Effective When Done Properly.
    Jumping To Evade Is QUite Esencial, The Way I Do In My Best plays is Use Jumping To Both Evade And Position Myself And Reticle To Aim Smothly And Rapidly At My Oponent Head, The Most Efective Methods Is Controling The Speed With The Normal Jump And The The High Speed Jump Like Strafe In Hunter Or titan Or Burst Glide In Warlock.
    You can Also Evade By taking Advantage of The Debuff Of Glide Thou This Is Specificly For Warlock, See When You Aim You Plumit A Lot Fast To The Ground In Air With Warlock Then Hunter or Titan, That Becuse Glide Does Not generate And vertical Momentum Unless use Rapidly After You Jump.
    Meaning if You Aim Youll Also Fall At Higher Speed.
    The Trick of Using Warlock Glide Is To Exact The Hight You Whant And With Thing Like Diretional Control You Can Acelerate Your Jump By Landing On Thing Like Boxes Ec Thing Higher Then The Ground.
    This Way When Evading Youll Alway be Able To Acelerate Your Jump In The Time, However Most of Control Movment Relies On Understanding The Map, When Your Being Persued, Etc, The Least Thing You HSouldDo Is Turn Around Becuse of The Low Sensibility, Youll Always Whant Your Oponent In Your Face, To Do That Instead Of Compleatly Disengaging The Encounter, With High Mobility You can Move As Fast As Sprint By Jumping And Moving With Lightframes Withount Removing Your Eyes From the Target.
    Its Probably More Of Situational Thing But With Controler Becuse Of The Limited Thing You Always Whant To Keep Even Minimilistic Full Control Of Evrything.
    When Using High Sensibility On A Controler Its best To Use A Close But Not To precise Weapon, The Contrary Aplies To Long range Were You Must Use A Low Sensibility To Aim properly, Base Becuse We 1 Do Not have Ads Modifier And 2 Do Not Have The Precision to Manage Its Better Using A Hybrid If You have Both A Long Range And Short Range, A Low Sensibility At Long Range And High Sensibility In Close Range.
    Now This Will Limit You To A Specific Way of Playing, But Their Also Somthing You can Use T Your Advantage Call Hipfire, And Thank God For It.
    if You have Low Sensibility As In Your Majorly Long Range Youll Most Likly Benefit To have A Short range Heapon And Hipfire, Or Use Long Range Weapons To Hipfire.
    Especially With Weapon With High Zoom Youll Never Whant To Aim At Close Range If Your Using Low Sensibility Since Ads Will Reduce That Aim Speed Even More.
    The Trick In Thsi is That By Hipfire You Get More Chances To Hit With Slow Sensibility, And you Do Not Limit Your Movment Speed Like Ads Does, Atlest To me it proved Alot of Advantage When Having Low Sensibility At Close Range, I Would Recomend A Hipfire Mod On Lot of Thing, This With High Movment Are Able To Evade Shots WHile Not Leving You At The Mercy of Your; You sacrifice precision But Your More Likely To be Hit faster And Evade Your Enemy Better Then What They Evade You When They Ads.
    Weapons With Higher Zoom And hIgh sensitivity Is A Go, You Shouldnt Try Any Other Combination This Is Becuse The Zoom Is Able To tecnically Extend The Head Box of Your Oponent And Your Aim, By This I Mean There Body or Head Will Get Bigger basical Concept Of Zoom Becuse Of This With High Sensibility Your Not Suffuring Much From Slow Aiming or A Chance To Mis The Shot Compared To Other Weapons.
    In Controler Positioning Is Evrything, Its Literly All Destiny For Controler Not So Much For Pc, Even More For Warlock Then Hunter Or Titan.
    This Is Becuse You Have very Little Speed To Corect Your Direction, or Aim, And To SOme Point Even Less Acuratly.
    Menaing That The Corect Positioning Would Be The Best Tool And yet The Hardet Tool o Use On Controler.
    let me Explain Positioning Is A HIgh Skill Gap You Need To know What Your Doing, And You Must Be Aware of Absolutly Evrything In The Game.
    To Give Some Example, You Need To Know A Lo of The Map, The Speed You can Cross It, Your Enemy Position Your Oponent Position, the Position of Cover, The Aoe Radious of Super, The Speed Of Them, The Aoe Of Weapons, Abilities, Etc Etc Etc, Positioning Is The Most Complex Of All Tolls And The Most Rewarding, You Gonna Have To Burn To A Lot of Brain Cells For It To Work Good.
    Why is More Important For Controler Becuse of Slow Aiming, Technically You can Reposition Your Reticle Withount Actually Aming With The Right Joystic, As i Explain By Jump Movemnt Etc.
    Menaing That Yoru Able To Aim At Speed of M And K And Acurate f You Fully Master The Positioning However Its No Easy Task, Becuse You Also Have To Evaluate How Your Oponent Plays And Fast.
    Since In Cntroler You Use Movment To Both Evade Aim And Get To Cover While Also Evading Having To Deal WIth More Then 1 Oponent, Your Gonna Have To Flqlessly Think The Corect Placemnt And The Corect Speed It Witch To Place Yourself And That Is Highly Reliable On The Way Your Oponent Plays Becuse Depending How They Play Depend On The Ideal Spot That Is The Most Effective To Achive All I mention.
    In Short You Can Say Its A Insane brain Cell Burner Tactic That Will Have To Costantly keep A Lot of Brian Power Constanly Active In Your Brain.
    Also A Good Thing To Know As ANy Player Is To Identify Each Weapon And To Know Each Weapon, With This Your Able To Predict How Your Opoent While Play And Predict Their Movment Before They Even Execute It, This Is Absolute Fllow of PvP Knoledge predict, Use The Tools In Your Hands.
    In Controler You can Be In The Corect Situation You Must Create It, or Put Your Oponent In A Bad Situation, This Involve In A Lot Of Control Of What Your Doing And As Fas As To Say Milisecond Of Thinking To Create Whole Entire Plance And Moves.
    Esencially T he Bets Thing You Can Do In Controler For Spead is Moving Your Oponent To The Ritcle Instead of Moving The Reticle To Your Opoenent, or A Hybrid of The Two.

    Excellent video. The only thing I would caveat is that PS5 haptic feedback vibration is incredibly immersive, and I have found it to be a net benefit playing with it turned on without interfering with aiming - just don't use the adaptive triggers part. The vibration is much more nuanced which gives you feedback for everything including incoming shots, AoE damage, healing rift, nearby damage effects, and even increasing feedback as you charge a fusion rifle making it easier to manage your pre-charge. If you do not have haptic feedback, then probably it's not as worth it, but PS5 controller haptic feedback vibration is 100% worth trying out for a while.

The game was so overwhelming i didnt even put mods on my armor cuz i didnt know. I usually play fps games like overwatch and cod and i came back to destiny in season 10 and i have been playing since. I played on console until splicer i switched to pc but now i have ssitch back cuz i bugged my crossplay and i have to wait 90 days. Originally i played on max sens and it still felt slow compared to cod but after switch to pc and coming back 10 feels way too and i am overshooting my opponents.
