Starcraft.....a game that was ever changing for me. It changed my thinking, my mindset, my computer efficiency in so many different ways. Heck, it even change the way i play FPS these days.

Its common knowledge among FPS gamers that the lower your sensitivity is while using your arms for mouse movement improves your aim. I for one....can't use that style. So, I turned my style to Starcraft again and there did I see the Holy Grail lol.







It feels good to probably be the one person who uses a very high sensitivity for the sniper (Even higher than my rifles lol). It's probably due to the fact I'm the only Malaysian SC1 player at ICCUP level (we have garena and other levels too lol) that plays Cod4 lol. Enjoy the vids xD and good day TL.

just depends on the players, but bw players certainly don't need "as much" precision as consistently as fps players do.

Well I use high on mine just like bw, but yeah, it's kinda hard adjusting since you're not supposed to drag your cursor around to shoot which works if you select stuff....

fps is a bit more precise..I think practicing storm and reaver drops helped me. :D

In FPS I normally use inbetween high and low sensitibity.... What I did notice from your sniepr vids though are two things.

1. You seem to miss a whole lot more than you should and almost appear to be taking random shots at some point. If anything it seems like the higher sensitivity is causing you to miss more than you should.

2. The players you were playing with didn't seem to be the greatest. They were very slow to react and had many chances to kill you when they didn't.

Oh man, watching this brings back memories. Even though the killhouse vids are clearly pubs you've got some skill when it comes to the clunky quickscope of cod4

Yeah I do miss a lot but I would miss even more if i go low sensitivity lol. I tried promod and its even more accurate for me there.

They aint the best yeah but I certainly can compete with community promod snipers at their own game (I stock regularly)

Additionally, Im using acceleration along with a decent sensitivity, so it becomes faster. The hard part for me is controlling the accel, hence the misses. If I get it right, I can take on a 1v3 Snipers Only ( i regularly host that too lol)

Then what actually might help out is to just lower your sensitivity alittle bit, like a very small amount, and find that happy medium where you can control it smoothly and get those very accurate shots off.

I always liked high sensitivity in FPS games. I still feel lower sensitivity can really slow you down but who knows. Glad to see someone else uses high FPS sensitivity while staying accurate!
