Adaptive triggers are a cool feature on the PlayStation 5 controller that adds a new level of immersion to games like Battlefield 6. They can make you feel the tension of pulling a trigger or the recoil of a powerful weapon. But let's be honest, sometimes they can be more of a pain than a help, especially when you're in the middle of a heated firefight. If you're looking for a quick way to turn them off, you'll need to do it through your console or PC's system settings, not in the game itself.

When I first started playing the Battlefield 6 beta, I was blown away by the adaptive triggers. It felt so realistic feeling the resistance in the triggers as I aimed down sights. For the first few matches, it was a novelty that made the game feel more engaging. However, I soon realized that in a fast-paced shooter, that extra resistance was actually slowing down my reaction time. I was losing gunfights that I knew I should have won, and it was starting to get frustrating.

How to Turn Off Adaptive Triggers in Battlefield 6

If you're like me and you've decided that adaptive triggers just aren't for you, here's a simple guide on how to turn them off.

On PlayStation 5:

1. Go to your PS5's Settings menu.

2. Select Accessibility.

3. Go to Controllers.

4. Here you'll find options for "Adaptive triggers weapon fire" and "Adaptive triggers weapon zoom". You can turn them off from here.

On PC (Steam):

1. Open Steam and go to your Library.

2. Right-click on Battlefield 6 and select Properties.

3. Go to the Controller tab.

4. You can disable Steam Input here, which should turn off the adaptive triggers.

After I turned off the adaptive triggers, it felt like a night and day difference. My aim was snappier, and I was winning more of those close-quarters engagements. It reminded me that while new features are exciting, sometimes the classic setup is the best for competitive play.
