Best Controller settings for Modern Warfare 3 Open Beta 

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 is currently available only for PlayStation users, so the best controller settings are crucial to win as many gunfights as possible. The console inputs need to be fine-tuned so that they can provide a balanced playing field against the Keyboard and Mouse players. However, it can be a tricky route as every individual has a different playstyle.

Modern Warfare 3 is comparatively faster than its 2022 prequel, as it brought back some of the most fan-favorite mechanics. However, it seems that the Aim Assist strength for the console platforms has been reduced, so it is important for players to have a better grip on their controller settings.

This article will highlight the best controller settings for Modern Warfare 3 Open Beta.
