MW2: Using Aim Assist correctly, expert reveals powerful trick for Modern Warfare 2
This is why the setting is so important: CoD players with a controller receive an aiming aid from the game itself – otherwise they would hardly be able to hit in the fast game and would be helplessly inferior to players with a mouse and keyboard. The aiming aid, the so-called Aim Assists, is really strong in MW2, but a setting makes the function much stronger, right OP, my experts.
- In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 there are two Aim Assist aids: Rotation and Slowdown
- There are four settings to choose from (Standard, Precision, Focused, and Black Ops), but they’re not all equally good.
- Only with the aim assist types “Standard” and “Black Ops” do you have the aim assists for rotation in MW2.
- With Rational Aim Assists, your character turns with the enemy
- In addition, you also have the slowdown of the crosshairs in the vicinity of enemies.
- On the other hand, if you choose “Precision” or “Focused” as the aim assist type, the Aim Assists rotation is missing, you only have the aim slowdown
Expert advises on “Black Ops” setting: The aim aid “Black Ops” is clearly the best choice, advises the CoD expert JGOD. Due to the controller setting, the aim assist works a few percent better than usual. Doesn’t sound like much, but in a fast game like MW2 every fraction of a second counts. JGOD says: “Set it all to Black Ops if you haven’t already.”.
JGOD is well known in the community for its expertise and guides for Warzone and other CoD titles. Especially in the field of “weapons” only a few other experts can boast the same level of expertise. The CoD guru predicts: An MW2 weapon will dominate Warzone at launch.
MW2: The best setting for aim assist on the controller should be “exploited”, advises professional
This is how you set the strong aim assist in MW2: In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, first press the option button, then select “Settings” in the top right corner and then “Controllers”. In the controller settings you go to the second tab “Advanced”.
Now select the “Black Ops” setting in MW2 as the “Aim Assist Type” to take advantage of the strongest Aim Assist. This is how the whole setting looks in the game itself:

When does Aim Assist help you and when doesn’t it? Call of Duyt distributes the stickiness of the crosshair very liberally. If an enemy runs through the frame, the slowdown Aim Assists is activated automatically. However, the Rational Aim Assist only works if you move the joystick of the controller – even if it is only so minimally that the character does not even move in the game.
Smoke and effects from stun grenades, for example, negate aim assist in MW2. If you want to see expert JGOD’s investigation into aim assists in MW2 for yourself, you can find the YouTube video here:
As a weapon, we recommend you, for example, the AK74u, which is called Kastov 74u in Modern Warfare 2: MW2 professionals ban the weapon setup for Kastov 74u. With the gun and the right aim assist settings, you can rock everything in multiplayer.
