I think the idea is you'll be alot better with lower sens. I know for a fact the way i control my mouse is so fucking sub-optimal, even if ive spent so long doing it ive mastered it and am actually pretty gud.

Not even getting it to ridiculous settings like these guys have (400/1-2) but reducing it would help alot. DPI seems easiest to lower, try taking that 1400 to 1000 over the course of a week, i doubt you'll notice a difference if you do it gradually but i bet it would help :-) I started at 1800/4.5 sens and i notice a definite improvement in my aim now its 1000/3.5 (now 800/3 but untested XD)

I just find it really hard to change my settings because of how used i am to never moving my arm. If you're used to moving your arm with mouse control, i could imagine it being a fuckton easier then my struggles :<

I'm too lazy to use any lower sens. I play with tired hands a lot for various reasons, effort is my enemy.

Okay here's something that puzzles me: when I go to 400 DPI and ANYTHING lower than 2-2.5 sensitivity, I can not even do a 180 in one motion on my super large Steelseries Qck+ mousemat (which I believe is the largest mousepad out there pretty much). Is that correct? Raw input is on. Is there any other setting that might interfere with this or something or are people really playing with THIS low sensitivity?

2 sens at 400 dpi is already pretty low but should be playable, you should be able to do a 180 with one sweep if you lift your hand I think (it would be 1 sens at 800 dpi and I played like that for a bit on a smaller pad, and it was okay-ish).
As someone said though you need to find something you're comfortable with, but a very high sens will reduce your ability to be accurate and consistent. Depends on your dexterity, some top players are able to play with something pretty high (like someone said get right uses 2.9@400), but others couldn't be consistent with a sens that high, so you have to try and find one you like while staying in a reasonable margin I think.

Still playing 1.6 and noticed that my ingame sensitivity is on 6 lol. Moved it to 2 and now to 3. I have to admit, 800 dpi 3 sens feels really good while aiming. But turning around is a fucking pain. If you hear steps behind you it's 99% certain I can't turn around fast enough, lol.

I was trying to say that I literally can not do a 180 turn in one motion from the far left to the far right on my XXL mousepad at 400DPI with 2.5 or lower sensitivity - which made me wonder whether or not pros really play with THAT low sensitivity (knowing they go down to 1 and a bit at 400DPI) or if there's some factor here that results in me somehow having lower sensitivity then I should through some setting or who-knows-what.

Can anybody confirm that it's normal not to be able to do 180 without going almost a metre(!) with your mouse at for example 1.5/400DPI?

Should be normal. At 3/800 I need 25-30 cm doing a 180.

Tbh, some people are really exagerating how low it should be. Sure it should be low, but how low is a matter of preference imo. Hell, scream is even playing with mouse acceleration on, and he is one of the best aimer out there, if not the best.

0.85/400
low sensitivity club whoop whoop
I tried going back up to 2.16 (my old sensitivity) the other day and I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn if I was inside it.

My mousepad is almost the same exact size and I have no trouble doing a 180 at 400/1.6. I used to play 400/2 and I would almost 360 with one swipe..(I think about a 310 degree turn).

Weird..

At 3/800 you should need ~8.5cm to do a 180..

At 3 sensitivity at 800 dpi I would have to move around 9cm for 180 degrees. Of course optimally, you want your mouse pad to be at least twice the size of your 180 distance so you don't have to lift off for a 180.

Then something is wrong with my system I guess. Playing at 1280x1024 (19" 5:4 Monitor), so that could make a difference.

Yeah resolution probably does make a difference. I'm playing at 1920x1080. What res are you playing at, Tennet?

I play at 1920x1080. I think resolution only changes how it feels to the player and not the 360 distance, but i'm unsure.

Possibly, oh I probably shouldn't assume we're all 6/11 on windows since some people change that too..
