How sensitive are...

    I personally think up to a point increasing your sensitivity is beneficial maybe 4/5 past which it doesn't help because you can turn fast enough to give you a chance to kill an enemy behind you. I must try come down from 9 because sometimes I find it hard to stay on target against enemys in the distance.

    That would be my thought as well.

    You played comp for a bit on console I'm fairly sure you said before, what were you playing off then? 3-4?

    yeah 3 or 4 i think. Low sens has always been the better choice in almost every game i've played competitively (PC and console). IMO the only situation that high sens is superior than a low sens in CoD is when you snipe, and thats only because of how slow the zoom speed is.. on PC you can config your zoomed sens to match your unzoomed.. shame you can't do that on console ie have two sens settings.

    Even for turning on people i'd prefer 4 over 9-10... You can turn pretty ****ing fast with 4 and you're gonna be much more accurate whereas i'd imagine its much easier to overturn and just fail in general at aiming with a really high sens. If your finding yourself with your back to an enemy often then its probable that your positioning and awareness is sh1te.

    Although im not sure if its the same with CoD.. but in general on PC.. you want to be doing a 180 turn with a single sweep across your mousemat (Unless its one of those big giant things).

    Going from keyboard/mouse to controller is always going to be difficult unless you play regularly on the console... i guess.

    I go between 4 and 5. Knock it down to 3 after a break from COD. In mw2 i'd snipe on 9 because of the slow zoomed - in speed. For the rest of the guns I'd play on 3-4.

    I think black ops is harder to play on with a high sens compared to mw2.

    7 + on anything seems stupid to me

    Used to be a 10 in MW2 but gradually got lower (and better)on about a 3-5 now.


    I was exact same Kells.. Used to be 10 on MW2 but have dropped to 6-7 for black ops..

    I used to use 8 but I find after a long time of not playing it, such as PSN meltdown (or even just a week), after I pick up the controller again I couldn't play for peanuts!! So had to drop the sensitivity back down to get used to it!

    Yeah I used to use the advantage of not having a headset on so used 10 if I heard someone I could spin Quick but then I noticed my aiming was Shiet so switched to 7 then 5 then 3.

    Was 6. Lee changed the setting to 8 when he was up, so leaving it at 8 and going to try play it at that.

    I generally use 3, find its easier to swing my aim onto someone bein on 3, if I go any higher I find that I try to slowly pull the gun across the screen like I'm used to, but I over swing an end up doing a 180 turn an shootin behind myself Like a dork while the opp gets an easy kill..

    I'm happy with what I'm on an used to it so I wont complain :)

    I play using three on PS3. It's perfect for me. My friend plays using ten and I don't know how he does it. I'm hopeless playing with high sensitivity.

    I don't know if it's just me, but does anybody else find the sensitivity different on the Xbox compared to the PS3? I was playing on my friend's Xbox earlier and three was too slow for me. I had to put it up to five, yet it felt the same as what I use on PS3.

    The dead zone is alot bigger on the xbox afaik. Might be the cause of it.

    The PS3 sticks are known to be more sensitivity (And better) than the xbox's.

    Usually use 3 on Blops but on MW2 today I had It on 2 and couldn't control my aim at all so put it on 1 and was getting decent scores


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭Gelio


    Wow, I use 10 and never really thought much of it till now, I'll have a go at 7 next time and see what sort of effect it has on my game play.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 75 ✭✭32yg


    I used to always play on ten until i realised i didn't need it and i was missing shots by just slight bits so i put it on 7 for sniping and 5 or 6 for normal.
