I don't know if it's supposed to be like this but, in the HotS beta I set up the mouse sensitivity and scroll speed at the exact same numbers as I have them on WoL but on HotS it's not even close to being the same feel as on WoL with the exact same settings. It's way more sensitive and scroll speed is way faster even though the numbers are the same. Also at random points in the game the volume of everything will randomly skyrocket for a few seconds. Anyone else notice the mouse setting difference between WoL and HotS?

I have started experiencing the same thing too, sorry for bringing up an old post. Anyone know how to fix this?

Are you sure you have ' Reduced mouse lag ' checked in graphic settings in SC2 options? Have you checked your mouse settings in control panel? Have you tried unplugging and replugging your mouse? Have you tried another mouse to make sure it is not just your mouse and not something similar to his problem?

I would just adjust the settings to your liking, if they are a little different in WoL than in HOTS, well then write down the adjustments for each one to suit your liking. gl hf

To fix this just set your mouse settings in control panel to whatever you want, then turn off the "adjust mouse sensitivity" (or whatever its called) setting in sc2. Then it will just use your standard internet-perusing mouse speed. Much easier than trying to balance anything. And if you use different mouse settings when you play sc2 than when you dont, stop it.

Just get used to 6 or 7/11 on windows mouse speed scale (or 8 if you have years of experience with PC gaming), then reap the benefits of near-perfect accuracy; i.e. go up half a league.

You should only put the windows slider in the default middle position. Otherwise you will experience the mouse cursor skipping pixels. This is because the windows mouse speed option doesn't change the dpi of the mouse, but the amount of pixels your cursor moves, in order to artificially increase mouse cursor speed.

You should change the windows option to default, and adjust cursor speed with the DPI setting in your moue driver software. You should also put the SC2 slider at a non-multiple of 5. For example, if you want it to be at 50, you should put it at 49 or 51, because the multiples of 5 on the slider are buggy.

Keep your windows sensitivity to 6/11...
