Additional controls settings on consoles
Console versions of BioShock 1 have four additional control options:
- Controller Sensitivity is the sensitivity of the controller when using analog sticks. We recommend increasing the sensitivity level If you feel that your character is moving and rotating in a slippery way.
- Invert Look - you can flip the Y axis by looking around and aiming.
- Vibration - you can disable the controller's vibration.
- Auto Aim - you can use the aiming assistant to help you track your opponents.
