For the love of gamers, ZOS PLEASE increase the Maximum camera sensitivity on Console UI

As a person who played on PS4 for 2 years and on PC for almost 3 years I want to give a feedback regarding camera speed when using Console UI (with controller).

Even on maximum sensitivity increase from the in game settings the camera speed is frustratingly SLOW which makes the dynamic PVP combat hard to perform.
Now let's look at 2 perspectives:


* A ) Playing on Console -
here the camera speed problem applies to everyone, therefore it is not affecting PvP competitiveness, however there were already a many threads in the past years where people are asking for increase of the maximum camera sensitivity, If @ZOS developers increase the maximum value by 50-80% this will be HUGE QoL improvement.

* B ) Playing on PC with Console UI (with controller) -
there are MANY MANY people coming from Console to PC, most of them decide to stick playing with Controller instead of Mouse and Keyboard. However when doing that they are handicapping themselves because of the slow camera movement compared to the M&K! I myself played for a whole year in PvP suffer because my camera movement couldn't keep up with the rest of the PC players, fortunately I learned about the UserSettings.ini file and the many configurations that it provides and VOALAH - inside the file I found the 2 following settings:
SET GamepadSensitivityFirstPerson.2 "1.22000003"
SET GamepadSensitivityThirdPerson.2 "1.00999990"

Which I increased to 1.8xxxxxx values, then the miracle happened, my camera was fast and responsive, I was able to keep up with every movement of my enemies which lead to satisfaction from my PvP Experience overall and once again I was competitive.

Here is a video showcasing the difference between my custom (+80%) camera speed and the default(maximum) one which all console players are being stuck with:

For the love of gamers, @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_RichLambert PLEASE consider granting us the Console players with this minor gift which is a really minor adjustment but will be SIGNIFICANT QoL improvement !

    Bumping this thread, because I want more console or gamepad users to notice it and participate/ provide feedback

    The funny thing is I actually thought about this exact thing the other day and I totally agree.

    I play on PC- EU and 90% of the time I use gamepad. It suits the game better IMO.
    Increasing the camera speed would be awesome!

    Exactly the haptic feedback from vibration especially when using melee heavy attack is awesome, makes combat more immersive, also with gamepad you can adopt animation canceling easier than when using M&K.

    If you guys want this improvement please log in to PTS (or if you are on console just use /feedback from the live servers)

    and give /feedback > Impair functionality > UI > Settings sections and make a request for camera sensitivity rising when using GamePad UI / Playing on console, because discussing this topic in forums wont make a difference, we need to provide the /feedback in game.
