How I Stopped Losing Matches by Changing My Camera Angle
If you are a regular eFootball 2025 player on PS4, you should know how frustrating it can be to lose a match not because your tactics were bad or your players were sluggish, but because you couldn't see the game clearly.
Trust me, I have been there. For weeks, I kept losing tight games online. I thought maybe my formations were outdated or my button response time was just off. But then I realized that the problem wasn’t my gameplay, it was the camera settings.
In this post, I will break it down, and show you the best camera settings for eFootball 2025 on PS4 and how it helped me go from losing streaks to clean wins.
Importance of Camera Settings in eFootball 2025
In eFootball 2025, especially in online matches, every second counts. A poorly positioned camera can make you lose sight of your winger making a run, also delay your decision-making and make it hard to defend fast counter-attacks.
Visibility and spatial awareness are everything in modern football games. The default camera settings might look nice, but they are not always optimized for competitive gameplay.
When I first started playing eFootball on my PS4, I was stuck with the default 'Stadium' camera. It looked nice, had that TV broadcast feel, however in online Ranked Matches, it was a disaster.
I couldn’t see my wide players in time, I kept losing track of player switching, my lobbed passes were mistimed because of depth distortion, and the worst of all? I lost 6 out of my first 8 ranked matches. I was genuinely frustrated, until someone on Reddit said, “If you're serious about winning, fix your camera.”
Best Camera Settings for Competitive Play
After hours of testing, and watching pros on YouTube, here’s what worked perfectly for me:
Camera Type: Custom
This is the most flexible camera mode that lets you tweak height and zoom according to your play style.
Camera Angle: Custom
Choose "Custom" instead of the presets like "Stadium" or "Wide."
Zoom: 0 to 2
Lower zoom gives you a wider field of vision. I personally keep it at 1 so I can still see player details but also catch off-ball runs.
Height: 7 to 9
A higher height allows you to view more of the pitch vertically. I use 8 because it gives a great top-down feel without looking too flat.
Dynamic Zoom: Off
This setting changes the zoom based on where the ball is. Turn it off because it cab distract during quick transitions.
Ball Camera: Off
This keeps the camera focused on the pitch and your tactical vision, not just the ball.
Bonus Settings: Radar and Display
Radar Type: 2D
Radar Position: Bottom
Player Indicator: Arrow + Name
Cursor Change: Semi-Assist (for better control)
How These Settings Changed My Game
Once I switched to the custom camera with Zoom at 1 and Height at 8, I instantly started seeing the game differently:
I could time through balls and wing crosses with precision.
My defending improved because I could anticipate runs earlier.
It felt like I had been playing blindfolded before.
In Conclusion
If you are serious about improving your win rate in eFootball 2025 on PS4, do not underestimate the impact of your camera settings. It is a small tweak that makes a massive difference.
Remember, football is a game of space and vision. However in a video game, your camera is your eyes. Do not go blind like I did for weeks.
Try these settings and thank me later!
