Many games struggle with optimization issues at launch, which are often resolved through subsequent patches. However, *FragPunk* has impressed players with its smooth performance right from the start. While there's always room for improvement, especially in terms of frame rates, here's a guide to the optimal *FragPunk* settings and crosshair codes to enhance your gameplay experience.
FragPunk Settings Overview
The settings in *FragPunk* are neatly organized into five tabs. Apart from the Video tab, which directly impacts performance, the other tabs mostly cover quality-of-life and accessibility features. These settings can significantly enhance your gameplay, and we'll walk you through the most impactful ones. Settings not mentioned here can be left at their default values or adjusted to suit your preferences.
General
The General tab is where you'll find most of the quality-of-life settings. Experimenting with these can help you find what works best for you. Here are some recommended settings, though personal preference plays a big role:
- Automatic Climbing – On
- Automatic Sprint – On
- Camera Shake During Sprint – Off
- FOV Sprint Scaling – On
- Flash Eye Guarding – On
- Keep Player Centered – On
- Minimap Orientation Rotate – On
- Performance Metrics – On
- Ping Visibility – 1
- Hide Overly Visible Skin Components from Enemies – On
This tab also includes options for customizing your crosshair, which we'll cover later.
Keyboard/Controller
These sections allow you to customize your key bindings. You're free to choose any configuration that suits you. However, with Automatic Sprint enabled, the Shift key is available. Consider binding the walk function to Shift, as this is common in other tactical shooters like *VALORANT* and *CS2*.
Sensitivity
Sensitivity settings are highly personal. Feel free to experiment or use an online calculator to convert settings from games like *VALORANT* or *CS2*.
Audio
For the best audio experience, set the Sound Effects volume to a comfortable level. Lower the Music, Announcer, and Button volumes. Enable Character Voice Simplification to reduce unnecessary in-game chatter. Voice chat settings are up to your preference.
