Arc Raiders: The Perfect Sensitivity Curve Analysis No One Talks About 🎮
This video provides a detailed analysis of how sensitivity curves affect aim assist when using a controller in ARC Raiders, and the characteristics of each curve. It explains the differences between linear, exponential, and sine wave curves, and provides a guide to selecting the optimal curve with tips for Call of Duty (COD) players.
⚠️ ARC Raiders has different aim assist features than COD, so you should try all the curves and find the settings that work for you.
⚠️ This is a personal opinion, so it is important to play and choose the curve that suits you.
1. 🎮 Introduction to ARC Raiders Sensitivity Curves: Linear, Exponential, Sine Wave
- ✅ ARC Raiders has three sensitivity curves: linear, exponential, and sine wave.
- ✅ Most games do not provide accurate sensitivity curves, so you have to test them yourself.
- ⚠️ The linear wave is not actually linear and is closer to an exponential wave.
| Curve Type | Characteristics |
|---|---|
| Linear Wave | Close to exponential wave, easy to control |
| Exponential Wave | Provides natural movement |
| Sine Wave | Acceleration effect in certain sections |

2. 📊 Interpreting Sensitivity Curve Graphs: Relationship Between Joystick Force and Speed
- ✅ The graph shows the speed gained according to the force applied to the joystick.
- ✅ Even if you push with 50% force, you only get about 25% speed with linear acceleration.
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Sensitivity Speed | The degree to which the controller joystick is pushed (0% ~ 100%) |
| Joystick Force | Force required to push the joystick (0 ~ 100) |
02:44 - 03:30
3. ⚠️ ARC Raiders' Internal Dead Zone: 10% Forced Application
- ✅ ARC Raiders has a forced 10% internal dead zone.
- ✅ Even if you push the joystick about 10%, there is no response until it starts moving.
- ✅ This may be helpful for players with stick drift, but may be inconvenient for players who prefer a low dead zone.
| Dead Zone | Description |
|---|---|
| Internal Dead Zone | Area where there is no response even when moving the joystick (10% forced application) |
| External Dead Zone | Range to the point where input is recognized (close to maximum value) |

4. 🎯 Analysis of the Impact of Sensitivity Curves on Aim Assist
- ✅ All curves move similarly below 50%, but differences occur above that.
- ✅ The exponential curve is slower than the linear or sine wave curve.
- ✅ The sine wave curve has an acceleration effect in certain sections, making it easy to switch targets.
| Curve Type | Advantages | Disadvantages |
|---|---|---|
| Exponential | Natural movement, easy to stay attached to the enemy | Requires moving the joystick more when switching targets |
| Linear | Predictable motion, smooth tracking | - |
| Sine Wave | Acceleration in certain sections, fast target switching | - |

5. 🎮 ARC Raiders Sensitivity Setting Tips for Call of Duty (COD) Players
- ✅ If you want a feel similar to COD's dynamic curve, choose the sine wave.
- ✅ The most similar curve to COD is the exponential function, but it is much slower at the beginning.
- ✅ If you are using Dual Sense Edge, you can make it similar to COD through DSX.
| COD Curve | ARC Raiders Recommended Curve |
|---|---|
| Dynamic | Linear or Sine Wave |
| Standard | Linear |
⚠️ ARC Raiders has different aim assist features than COD, so you should try all the curves and find the settings that work for you.
09:02 - 10:26
6. 🎯 Optimal Curve Recommendations for Maximum Aim Assist and Smooth Tracking
- ✅ Maximum Aim Assist: Exponential Curve (because reaction speed is slow at multiple points)
- ✅ Smooth Tracking: Linear Curve (predictable motion)
- ✅ Fast Reaction Speed: Sine Wave Curve (speed is fast in the 50-75% range)
⚠️ This is a personal opinion, so it is important to play and choose the curve that suits you.
