Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 features faster movement mechanics, and they are now more refined than ever, which means you will need to use precise settings to optimize gameplay.
The game builds on BO6 with advanced omnimovement features, tactical sprint assists, and new wall jump dynamics, offering numerous options to customize your movement in the game. This makes it even more important to properly tune movement settings to outmaneuver opponents with fluid, responsive control, which can make the difference between winning and losing gunfights.
Having that said, here are the best movement settings to use in Black Ops 7.

Best Black Ops 7 movement settings
Intelligent Movement
- Sprint Assist: Tactical Sprint Assist
- Mantle Assist: Off
- Crouch Assist: Off
- Corner Slice: Off
- Wall Jump Assist: Off
- Active Roll Assist: Off
Set Sprint Assist to Tactical Sprint Assist, as this setting provides better control over when to sprint and helps maintain consistent sprinting without accidental stops, offering a balanced blend of control and speed.
Turn off Mantle and Crouch Assists to gain full manual control with these movements. Although assists can help if you’re just starting, turning them off ensures no unintended mantling or crouching will disrupt your momentum during combat.
It’s best to turn Wall Jump Assist off to gain precise manual control for wall jumps and aggressive movement tactics, such as jump shooting or bunny hopping. However, if you’re still mastering these mechanics, try Sideways Only when facing a wall.

Set Wingsuit Activation to Manual and Wall Jump Activation to Press for improved precision and control, allowing you to avoid accidental activations.
Another tip for controller players looking for smooth movement is to lower your Left Stick Min and Right Stick Min Deadzone settings. Keep it between one and three to increase responsiveness. Adjust as necessary if you experience stick drift. For max sensitivity, try setting the left stick (movement) to around 65 to 75 and the right stick (viewing and aiming) to 90 to 99 to maximize reaction speed without compromising precision.
