Tuning tips for brand‑new players
- Sensitivity: Start low. Raise until you can track a running zombie across your screen smoothly.
- Aim assist: If on controller, enable it early; you can lower it later.
- Audio: Boost dialogue & SFX to hear specials over gunfire; use stereo headphones.
- Key rebinding: On PC, keep R reload and E interact separate to avoid accidental cancels.
- Ping habit: Practice marking threats and resources (D‑Pad Up / Middle Mouse).
