Expert Controller Settings In Fortnite

Get ready to gear up with these expert settings with SCUF so you can prepare to be better than ever before for Fortnite Chapter 5. 

Expert Game Settings

  • Turn on Tap to Search. This will make picking up items faster by tapping instead of having to hold down.
  • Turn on Turbo Building. This will increase the speed that you build, but it may take some time to get used to it.
  • Turn on Confirm Edit on Release. This way it’ll confirm your building edits automatically and save you time.
  • Turn on Sprint by Default and likewise, turn Toggle Sprint off. 
  • Turn on Auto-Open Doors. This way you won’t have to wait for them to open. 
  • Try setting Color Blind mode to Pronatope with a strength of Six. A lot of pros like playing with these settings to make enemies easier to spot, including the World Cup winner Bugha. 
  • Turn off Motion Blur to decrease input lag so you can see enemies easier when you’re running around. 
  • Turn off Vibration. It’ll keep your aim more steady.

Expert Settings With SCUF

Paddles

Like we discussed in Getting Started in Fortnite, Paddles help you keep your thumbs on the sticks. This is important to be able to stay locked on the enemy with your aim, but also be able to build, defend yourself, reload, or swap weapons during a fight. 

These layouts cover all your essential functions so you don’t have to sacrifice your aim and movement. You can also try out other layouts to find the best one for how you like to play.

Digital TAP Bumpers and Digital Triggers

These features completely eliminate the range of movement of the bumpers and triggers and provides a feel similar to a mouse click. This is only recommended for players who only play shooter games.

The Digital TAP Bumpers and Digital Triggers are currently available for SCUF IMPACT & Infinity4PSPRO. 

Trigger Control System

SCUF’s Trigger Control system is available on every controller model and offers full trigger customization through adjustable trigger stops and hair triggers.

For Fortnite, you will want to have your trigger stops on unless you plan on using vehicles (which require the full trigger motion to operate).

They will reduce the amount your trigger has to travel past the activation point and will allow for faster shooting and aiming, especially efficient with semi-automatic weapons. 

To further tune your trigger movement, the hair triggers will allow you to modify the distance to the activation point so firing and aiming becomes a one-tap process.

You should only adjust your hair triggers in game; start by turning the key until you hit the activation point which is where your weapon will start shooting on its own, then dial it back 1 turn, or to your preference. 

High Performance Grip

While you’re playing for hours on end snagging Victory Royales, high-performance grip will reduce slippage and increase comfort during long hours of play. Don’t let sweaty hands get in the way of your wins.

Play like a Pro

Now that you have customized the different aspects of your controller and tuned your gameplay settings, it’s time to jump in-game and test your new setup using theseexpert tips!

Like every change, adjusting to these new settings may take some time - however, with practise and dedication, you'll be striving to reach your highest potential, and get those Victory Royales.
