Recommended The First Descendant settings
Researched August 2026. Copy any config below to grab these values.| Setting | PvP | Balanced | Visual Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| Display modeExclusive fullscreen is the general low-latency choice for a performance profile; none of the consulted guides tested display mode directly. | Fullscreen | Fullscreen | Borderless fullscreen |
| Ambient occlusionBenchmark coverage shows Global Illumination (the closest analogous setting) trimmed on lower-end performance builds, favoring frame rate and flatter, easier-to-read lighting. | Off | On | On |
| Anti-aliasing qualityBoth guides keep anti-aliasing at High since it has a low FPS cost relative to its clarity benefit. | High | High | Epic |
| Resolution scaleGuides recommend running at native resolution and relying on DLSS/FSR upscaling rather than dropping the in-game render-scale slider. | 100 | 100 | 100 |
| Texture qualityGuides keep textures at High since the setting is VRAM-bound rather than GPU-bound and barely affects frame rate. | High | High | Epic |
| Effects qualityThe performance-focused RTX 3070 guide keeps Effects at Medium to avoid particle clutter obscuring targets. | Medium | High | Epic |
| Frame rate limitBoth PC settings guides set the frame rate limiter to Unlimited for a performance-first configuration. | Uncapped | 144 FPS | Uncapped |
| Shadow qualityBenchmark data shows shadow quality swings performance by roughly 11%, so a performance/visibility profile trims it to Medium. | Medium | High | Epic |
| VSyncGuides consistently disable V-Sync since it adds input lag without a performance benefit. | Off | Off | Off |
| Foliage qualityGuides settle on Medium vegetation for general play, but cutting it further reduces visual clutter that can hide enemies, a common competitive-shooter adjustment not directly tested by the consulted guides. | Low | Medium | High |
| Motion blurEvery consulted guide turns motion blur off since it degrades clarity in this fast-paced shooter. | Off | Off | Off |
| Post-process qualityBoth guides settle on Medium post-processing, skipping the extra bloom/depth-of-field that higher tiers add without a real visual payoff. | Medium | Medium | High |
| View distance qualityThe balance-oriented guide raises Visibility to High so enemies stay readable at range, which matters more for a PvP-style profile than the Medium used in pure-performance builds. | High | Medium | High |

What are the best graphics settings for competitive FPS games?
Most competitive players lower shadow quality, effects, and post-processing to maximize frame rate and reduce visual noise, while keeping texture and anti-aliasing settings high enough to spot enemies clearly. The exact values differ per game and per PC - that's why our configs come from real players and show every individual setting, so you can copy a proven setup that matches your hardware.
Is Settings For Games free?
Yes. Browsing, copying, and publishing configs is completely free, and so is the Windows app. No signup is needed to copy settings. If the project helps you, there's an optional donation link.
Will copying a config overwrite my keybinds or sensitivity?
No. The copy & merge dialog keeps your personal settings - keybinds, mouse sensitivity, audio levels, crosshair colors - and only takes the graphics and performance values from the community config. You can also copy the raw config if you want everything.
Is the Windows app safe to use?
The app is a portable EXE that never modifies game files beyond the official settings/config files each game already exposes. It previews every change before writing and creates an automatic backup, so you can restore your previous settings at any time. Unsigned builds can show a Windows SmartScreen prompt until the file builds reputation.
Which games are supported?
The app can automatically apply settings for Rust, ARC Raiders, Valorant, and League of Legends, and can read Counter-Strike 2 settings. On the website you can browse and copy configs for 70+ cataloged games, including Escape from Tarkov, Apex Legends, Fortnite, Warzone, PUBG, Overwatch 2, and Marvel Rivals - and you can suggest any game we're missing.
How do I share my own config?
Either upload your config file on the website (sign in, then "Publish a config"), or use the desktop app: it detects your installed games, reads your current settings, and publishes them to your profile in a couple of clicks. Configs can be public, unlisted, or private.
