Not only will you need to master Omnimovement to dominate in Black Ops 6, but you’ll also need to dial in your aim to hit players moving around, and the best mouse and keyboard settings will give you a major boost.

Call of Duty players are jumping, sliding, and diving in every direction thanks to Omnimovement, bringing one of the biggest skill gaps we’ve seen in recent years. It’s typically harder for mouse and keyboard players to track targets up close, so this brings a whole new level of difficulty.

To help you keep up, here are the best mouse and keyboard settings for Black Ops 6’s beta to help you master aiming and Omnimovement.

Best Mouse settings in Black Ops 6

  • Mouse Sensitivity: 8
  • ADS Sensitivity Multiplier: 1.00
    • ADS Sensitivity Multiplier (Focus): 1.00
  • Look Inversion (On Foot): Standard
  • Custom Sensitivity Per Zoom: Off
  • ADS Sensitivity Transition Timing: Gradual
  • ADS Sensitivity Type: Relative
  • Look Inversion (Ground Vehicles): Standard

    • Mouse Filtering: 0
    • Mouse Smoothing: Off

Your mouse sensitivity is completely down to personal preference. Still, we’d recommend starting with 8 and seeing how it feels, then raising or lowering it until you find a comfortable level.

Sprint Assist is vital for Black Ops 6 mouse and keyboard players as it means you’ll be able to move around without having to hit the sprint button whenever you want to change direction. The only downside is that you’ll ADS slower coming from a Tactical Sprint, so you can just have it set to Sprint if you prefer.
