Splitgate 2 Best Video Settings
*Splitgate 2* is a competitive multiplayer shooter, where performance should take precedence over visuals. Here are the optimal settings to ensure smooth gameplay:
- Screen Resolution – Set to your monitor’s native resolution (1920×1080 is commonly used).
- Screen Mode – Opt for Borderless Fullscreen if you frequently Alt+Tab, otherwise stick with Fullscreen.
- VSync – Turn off to reduce input lag.
- FPS Limit – Match your monitor’s refresh rate (e.g., 60, 144, 165, 240).
- Dynamic Resolution – Enable, but feel free to experiment with disabling it as performance can vary.
- View Distance – Set to Low.
- Post Processing – Keep at Low.
- Shadows – Medium is usually fine, but go Low if your system is older.
- Effects – Low.
- Anti-Aliasing – Start at Low, but increase if you see shimmering.
- Reflection – Low.
- Field of View (FOV) – Maximize for competitive advantage, though it may impact performance. Reducing by 3-4 can help.
- Portal Frame Rate Quality – Low.
- Portal Quality – Low.
In essence, most settings should be set to their lowest options to boost performance. If the visual quality is too compromised for your taste, consider increasing Effects and Anti-Aliasing, as they have a lesser impact on performance.
Note that the Field of View setting can cause framerate issues. While a higher FOV gives you a broader view, crucial in competitive play, lowering it slightly can enhance performance without significantly affecting your gameplay experience.
Other Recommended Settings for Splitgate 2
While these settings won't directly boost your FPS, they're worth adjusting for an overall better experience. Start with your sensitivity settings; customize them to your preference or use an online calculator to convert settings from other shooters you play.
Regarding audio, while the game's music is enjoyable, it can be distracting. Lower the volume a bit. Additionally, enabling Spatial Sound in Windows settings can enhance your audio cues, making it easier to locate the source of sounds, a tip applicable to many games.
That’s it for the best settings to optimize your gameplay in *Splitgate 2*.
