As someone who moved from around 15cm down to 41.4cm in the space of a year I can tell you that your aim will improve a great deal. The hard part is getting used to such a low sens it can take up to 4-5 months to let you understand how to move around with such a low sens especially flick shots.

The hard part is getting used to moving your arm as opposed to just your wrist which can be a pain in the ass. Your best bet is to move your sens down in small increments to slowly adapt.

Your mousemat should just about allow you to do a 360 and even after you’ve set your new sens try and do quick 360s and slow 360s to make sure your not losing any tracking, if you are lowering dpi resolved it for me.

Thanks man.

After posting that I actually halved my sens. Which was easy because the MX518 has switchable dpi, so I just set it to 800 dpi at 2.5 in game sens. That’s around 20-25cm per 360 I think?

Anyway, my aim is already a lot more consistent. Regardless of my movement suffering, my scout is already a lot better just because I can actually hit things reasonably consistently. I think if I stick with this I will improve a lot. The main problem I’m having is with soldier though. My “speciality” is rocket jumping, since I used to spend all my time in jump servers and still do play a lot in them. With this low sens rocket jumping is so hard haha – I’ve spent 300+ hours practising my rocket jumping technique, and now trying to jump with this low sens is throwing me off completely.

One more question: I’m on a laptop and I absolutely love accel on my mousepad for doing not-game related stuff. Is there anyway to enable mouse accel on mousepad but leave it off for my mouse?

yes
use raw input setting in game. this will bypass windows mouse settings and use the mouses own settings.
that will leave you free to have any mouse acceleration or sensitivity for your desktop.

34/360 works for me.

ingame 1.6
dpi 800
windows +1

There is no godly sensitivity that will solve all your aim problems straight away, its all through countless hours of practise that you will build your aim with the sensitivity you are playing with, obviously, people are different, some like to play highsens, because it suits their way of playing and vice versa.

Sure, you can use the sensitivities posted here as guidelines for finding your own perfect sens, for example, as someone posted, the average soldier “sweetspot” is within 7-12 cm/360, so if you were playing soldier you could start out there.

personally. 5.2cm/360 here as soldier, i like it, i can just chill while playing.

3200 DPI
2.5 ingame

Though, mine is probably incorrect, seeing that i use raw input, which bypasses the windows sens.

Our other soldier IronHawk has 35.6 cm per 360, and he is an ungodly jumper. So low sens shouldn’t make that much of a difference :D

3.5, 800 dpi, raw input atm. Seems to be working fair enough.

Low sens isnt a problem if it suits your play style etc. like mousepad isnt too small. lol :)

also using m_yaw commands etc can let use a low sens and still look and up down easy for jumping etc
