What are the best controller settings and camera settings in FIFA 22? This means picking the best controller settings and camera settings. Most of these will come down to personal preference, so as part of our FIFA 22 guide, we'll share some views and recommendations. Remember, if something doesn't work for you personally, change it and pick whatever option feels most comfortable to you.

Topics like this come down to a person's playstyle rather than being simply right or wrong, and you shouldn't stick rigidly to guide articles!!!

How to Set Up the Best FIFA 22 Gameplay Controls

FIFA 22 best camera and display settingsThe best controller settings in FIFA 22 will largely depend on personal preference, but you can adjust them whenever you like. We recommend setting up your game as described below, but don't hesitate to deviate from our recommendations based on your own playstyle and taste. The settings exist to give you options, so don't be afraid to experiment and find what feels comfortable to you.

Competitive Master Switch: On

The Competitive Master Switch essentially assigns default competitive settings across the whole game, including Semi Assisted Through Ball and Manual Jockey. Although these are the default online settings, we recommend turning them on even when playing offline.

Timed Finishing: On

Timed Finishing has become much more effective in FIFA 22, and it's an especially effective method for Finesse shots from outside the box.

Next Player Switch Indicator: On

The Next Player Switch Indicator shows which player the L1 button will switch to, and enabling it is a pretty handy feature.

Pass Block Assistance: On

It's best to keep Pass Block Assistance enabled, because when it's set to On, both your user-controlled and CPU players will move to intercept passes and shots whenever possible.

Auto Switching: Aerial & Loose Balls

Auto Switching is set to Automatic by default, but the problem with that is it sometimes switches to players you don't want to use. It's best to use Aerial & Loose Balls, because this automatically picks the nearest player on crosses or high balls without you needing to search for one.

Auto Switching Move Assistance: Low

Essentially, Auto Switching Move Assistance moves your player in a certain direction for a brief moment right after a switch happens. This can help if you're holding the analog stick in a certain direction when the switch occurs. For most players, Low is the best setting, because High takes away too much control, and None is more of an option for professional-level players.

Player Lock: On

Even if you're not a fan of the Player Lock mechanic, it's best to keep it On in case you ever want to use it. Because of how it's implemented, it won't affect your game if you don't use it.

Icon Switching: On

A new mechanic that lets you press R3 to choose between four different players. Similar to Player Lock, it's best to leave Icon Switching On, since it won't get in your way even if you don't use it.

Right Stick Switching: Player Relative

If you imagine your user-controlled player standing in the middle of a circle, pressing the right stick toward their position lets you switch between different teammates when set to Player Relative. Alternatively, you can go with the ball-relative option, but this can also be confusing since the ball is likely to move around a lot.

Ground Pass Assistance: Assisted

Unless you're an elite-level player, we recommend keeping most assistance features on Assisted rather than Semi or Manual, unless stated otherwise.

Shot Assistance: Assisted

Cross Assistance: Semi

Setting Cross Assistance to Semi lets you control the power of your crosses, meaning you can aim for the back post or the near post depending on what you want to do. When Assisted is enabled, a target player will be selected automatically.

Lob Pass Assistance: Assisted

Save Assistance: Assisted

Analog Sprint: On

This lets you control your players' speed based on how much pressure you apply to the R2 trigger. If you use R2 as your sprint button, we recommend setting this to On, but it won't do anything for you if you use R1 for Sprint. Likewise, if you're already using your analog stick to control sprint speed, this won't even come into play.

Pass Receiver Lock: Late

Setting this to Pass Receiver Lock: Late gives you a second to change your mind about the direction of your pass, while Early means you're locked into a specific direction the moment you press the button.

How to set up the best FIFA 22 camera settings

Just like the best controller settings in FIFA 22, the best camera settings will also come down to personal preference. If you're planning to play competitively, we recommend the Co-Op option, since it gives you the best view of the pitch. To see as much of the field as possible, you should raise Height to 20 and Zoom to 0, though this could mean you won't be able to see individual animations as well. This, in turn, could throw off your timing on certain mechanics. What works for you will likely depend on the size of your TV and how close you sit to it, so you should find a happy medium.

If you're not planning to play online and want a more immersive experience, we recommend choosing the EA Sports GameCam option and then setting Zoom to 0 to see as much as possible. While this gives you a more immersive experience, it will still give you a decent overall view of the field.

As mentioned earlier, most of this will come down to personal preference, so don't hesitate to tinker around until you find the settings that work for you. There's no right or wrong answer here.
