100% is obviously a number he pulled out of his ass, but most players do have it disabled. | ||

You seriously underestimate your brains ability to compensate for something as trivial as the mouse cursor increasing in speed relative to how fast you move your mouse Um... that's not trivial. Without mouse acceleration, I know if I move my hand a certain distance the cursor will move a certain distance. With mouse acceleration, you have no way of knowing exactly where the cursor will be. Obviously your brain knows that the faster you move your hand the more the cursor will move but you have no way of knowing the exact distance. Of course if you use acceleration all the time you'll have a pretty good idea but you'll never be as accurate as with acceleration off. | ||

If you are good at starcraft and you have a mouse with a high dpi and lowered sensitivity then you should definitely consider this poll. Poll: Do u use mouse acceleration? http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=19018 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=53279 Correct me if I'm wrong but: Reason for no mouse acceleration is because it makes it difficult for you to aim your mouse because the distance the cursor moves depends on the speed you move your mouse. It leads to a lot of misclicks because it's difficult for your brain to remember how to move the mouse to get the correct distance when speed is involved. If you find you constantly have to reposition your mouse during games, because your sensitivity is too low, then you may want to increase your mouse acceleration (but not too high). When you're browsing use acceleration. Oh and you guys that pulled statistics out of nowhere. You're assholes. Sorry but I just learned I have a really big petpeeve for you. | ||

who's really to say it should be off? i think everyone has their opinion and what they're used to is going to work for them. it's just a matter of getting good using either one. This is crap. It doesn't contribute anything and states very improbable hypothesis that it doesn't matter how you do things. This kind of thinking leads to nowhere and is big obstacle if you want to improve at anything. Imagine that tennis or golf coach says to his student: "It doesn't matter what your forehand technique is, just go with what is comfortable to you" or "it doesn't matter how you swing, just go with what seems to be natural/comfortable to you". Stupid isn't it ? | ||
