The most efficient Rocket League camera settings

With the game being free-to-play and cross-platform, the competition is as tough as it gets. There are players from all over the world with different settings that help them succeed.

Reaching that success is clearly the number one objective of every player. Diving in with professional players' camera settings will ensure victory with plenty of practice.

Here are the best camera settings to use in the game:

  • Camera Shake: Off
  • Field of View: 110
  • Distance: 270
  • Height: 110
  • Angle: -3.0
  • Stiffness: 0.45
  • Swivel Speed: 5.0
  • Transition Speed: 1.2
  • Invert Swivel: Off
  • Ball Camera Mode: Toggle

Camera Shake is the camera settings equivalent of Controller Vibration. It is an unnecessary feature that can prove to be a disastrous distraction. Get rid of it and keep things steady.

Next up is the Field of View setting. Boost it to 110 and you will be able to see much more of your surrounding area. The ball and other players will be consistently in sight.

Distance and Height fall in line with Field of View. These settings change the amount of the field of play shown. Seeing the car and the action taking place will be much easier with the above changes to these settings.

The rest of the settings, aside from Ball Camera Mode, really come down to personal preference. Camera Stiffness, Swivel Speed, and Transition Speed won't have a huge impact on your play. If the given settings don't work for you, feel free to fiddle with them until they are perfect.

The same can be said about Invert Swivel. It changes the way the right stick adjusts the camera up and down. This is completely up to what the player is used to.

Lastly, Ball Camera Mode needs to be on Toggle. This is a setting that allows players to switch back and forth between tracking the ball on their screen or having a free camera centered in front of them.
