According to this video I'm doing everything wrong. I have a $6 dollar Amazon mouse, no mousepad at all, highest sensitivity setting, and mouse acceleration on. No wonder I can't aim.
S.Rolphsen you are not alone :(
I dont have a mouse pad and it suck cuz my hands keep sticking to the table
@@r35ct12 this happen to me, and that ruin your mouse grip :c
No mouse pads means no precised mouse activity means Aim worse
I have a 4$ mouse but my aim is quite good
"BONUST TIP!" scared me.
Ikr lol
iamddx567 Me too xD
I didnt notice until now. Bonus*, sorry.
I was going to the comments to see if i was the only one xD
It's ok. You're safe now.
I don't know why, but your hand don't match your voice...xD
I thought that same XD
+No here is Patrick! ikr he sounds like he should be a lot older.
+Sey0 Nice pic
uniikkiz really u just stole my pic xD
Hate listening to people that don't tweak their voice a bit for videos and sound flat and depressing. Good Video if you talked like that 24/7 I bet you could sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman in white gloves.
This might help some people
Something that I found out recently is that when I click, I move my entire mouse a teeny bit. This means that if I am using a pistol or tap shooting with an assault rifle that makes it very difficult to stay on the head of the target and hit head shots.
So what I did was started keeping my hand on the mouse in such a way that when I click it doesn't move my mouse, and I also try to not put as much pressure down on my mouse.
idk maybe some other people might have this problem and not realize it like I did.
VeztaMusic i had the same problem. i’m still learning to relax my arm because other wise i’ll put too much pressure or ill have shaky aim
Try lowering your sensitivity, start at 30cm per 360° turn and adjust it from there
1.5 and 400dpi masterrace. People with crazy high dpi can't be higher than silver 4
So true! I used to play at 800 dpi with a sensitivity of 4.3, and I was stuck on sliver 4 for a month. Bought a bigger mouse pad, lowered my sensitivity, and almost instant nova (which was a pretty big deal for me at the time).
_moreno source_ xD very PUNny
3.5 sensitivity and 1600 dpi, I must be lucky to be s elite lol
Im using even lower than yours at 400 dpi and 1.05 sensitivity ALL HAIL LOW SENSITIVITY
well i got to nova 3 with 1800 dpi before i took a break and got demoted to silver elite lol
This improved my aim so greatly my friends thought I was letting someone else play. Thanks!
4:46 scared the crap outta me...

Mark Yang, wouldn't you say ボヌス ティップ? Or something, but tepui? >.>
Neko Haxor yeah, except not in katakana. い shouldn't of have been in there.
Mark Yang except why not? It's just to change how the letters look, I think this fits better, especially since we're reproducing a foreign phrase. And why would you dismiss the い? I think tippu sounds more like it than teppu
Love these videos. You covered everything in 5 minutes and I didn't have to sit through a dragged-on 20 minute video just to gather a little bit of information. Awesome job man
when you look at his mouse pad and look at yours
mines bigger. i also have his mousepad.
when you use a folder as a mouse pad.... no wonder I'm still in silver
I just hit GN without a mousepad
mines about 3x bigger
I have steel series qck+
Switched my DPI to 800 (I run in native resolution) and turned down my sensitivity in-game, and found a big, big improvement in my aiming. Much smoother and accurate, feels a lot nicer and more natural now. Thanks for the tip!
I think I should change my sensitivity from a 12....
Dylan Macariola lol
+Brandon Slay i play at 800 DPI with 2.53 sens :P ..I hold the mouse at claw grip and anything lower than 2 sens feels very uncomfortable.
+Brandon Slay I think generally claw grip requires a bit more sens than palm grips. Because in this position u have to move your wrist, not the arm. I am still experimenting though, I played a couple of matches with this setting today and my aim was not satisfactory. I will probably lower it more.
+Saadman Sakib Mine's very similar I use 800 DPI but 6 ingame but anything under 6 feels slow. For example 800 with 2 on a deathadder feels the same to me as my m90 with 6
+Brandon Slay thats fuckin fast. i got 400dpi 1.5
best video among all sensitivity related CS GO videos. detailed and easy to understand. good job
I can vouch for the 800 dpi rather than 400. Just changed today and it fells noticeably better.
Jamie McDonald each type of mouse has native dpi. 800 is not necessarily the best for every mouse. alot of mice are meant to be at 400 dpi. it's the in-game sensitivity that's meant to be played around with, not the dpi
Jamie McDonald Can you or someone else here find something out for me? I play with 2000 DPI, with .75 in game sens, if I were to turn it down to 800 DPI, what would my sensitivity be? I found my perfect sensitivity, it's just with my mouse, I can't put the polling rate on 1000Hz when I'm running something other than one of the default DPI presets in my mouse driver.
Adam Hatcher I think you would need 1.875 sens ingame for 800 dpi. I used this website to work it out
www.mouse-sensitivity.com/
You just select CSGO as the game both times. Its a really useful site.
Jamie McDonald Thanks, going to go try it out :D
You are probably right. I'd rather not take the risk though.
Do you know those uh... Card game mats for like yugioh or something...? Yea... I use dat for my mouse pad xD
Well, that helped me. Saved me like 10 bucks. Thanks man!
Baby Monster Yeah. I do too, its wide enough for me to move about easily.
I can try it but I think that it would have 0 grip with the table
carzacc mine does and the brand is ultra pro
Baby Monster yes dude! I use a speed stacks mat
i love the start of the video (gameplay + webcam mouse) was very useful for me :D
thanks you bro
I also useful to rebind the jump the mouse wheel down. Noticed it in your settings. Thanks for the help WarOwl!
Turned off "Enhance pointer precision" and now it's like my hand is drunk trying to click things on screen. :P
Yeah same
But its better to disable it than enable when it come to gaming mode :)
just keep practicing without acceleration on and eventually your aim will become much better
It's not like being drunk in-game, it's on the desktop :P
Ronan Smith oh ok
To whoever says Mouse acceleration is bad, here's a quote:
"In theory; if you master playing with acceleration it is superior to non acceleration. You're able to turn faster when you need it and aim more precise when you need that.
That said, it's A LOT harder to be perfect. Because you need to master both non-linear distance as well as speed when moving the mouse in contrast to simply learning to move the mouse linearly in distance.
That's why most say it's bad. It's because it's so much harder, that unless you can handle it perfectly, you will play worse."
I move my arm if I want to turn faster and my wrist if I want to aim precisely. I don't need no machines doing it for me.
So basically you're saying that mouse acceleration is bad because we as imperfect beings cannot perform such an operation perfectly all the time.
06theespada we just need a video of those who use mouse acc and those who don't. We all look up to the pros....trust me.
***** During ASUS Rog Winter my friend asked Maikelele that when he uses mouse acceleration he'll never be better than KennyS. He went ahead and won the final against titan. So I wouldn't go ahead and make the assumption that just becouse less pros use it it's worse.
Markus Nikkanen Oh yeah without a doubt. In fact I use mouseacc for the very reason of control without "too" much effort in hand motion.
What I was suggesting is a "Pro" video demonstrating those that do use it and those that don't so it can be put up as a referential guide to end the madness of this pointless question to determine what "a person should use.
I'm doing a behavioral study on the CS community and find that a lot of people take other people's words.
e.g. try joining a server and asking what people use as their mouse config most of them will either start a riot or simply state it as how it was asked. Those that want the attention seem to be the ill minded.
BONUS TYYYYYYIPPPPP!
you're the man. thanks for the tips, pal
i play on 4.30 sensitivity, because i only have 6 inches of room for the mouse movements. lol.
lmao why ?
like i said, have no room for a giante mousepad. i should buy a desktop....
+TheJas20 I play on 4.5 xd you should get a mew table or something unless you're used to it
xypher yeah i really should. maybe i'll rob a bank or something.
TheJas20 Sick idea, remember to invite me when you do!
I found my perfect sensitivity and dpi
and then I fucked my dpi
The bonus tip thing have me a heart attack. You just went "Bonus tip!" And I was like "I wasn't expecting that!"
thank you for this. thius helped me realize what knot i induced within my mouse settings that made me think that isnt working
This is the best mouse video. Explains everything perfectly.
THIS is the kind of tutorial I've been looking for. One that shows the player moving the mouse so that I can have a better idea of how pros play. I used to use a very high sensitivity because I always thought that i should be able to turn 360 easily and also thought that lifting my mouse was a disadvantage. Lower sensitivities always felt so weird to me and I wondered how pros play with that.
Now I use 1.95 in game and 1000 dpi. I'll need a bigger mouse pad before I lower it any further. My mouse is too heavy too.
Why would you turn 360 ? :D
Milos Putnik 180 to kill(or at least try) people shooting from behind. For me its always easier to move my mouse to the right so to turn back to where I was looking at, I would turn 180 to the right.
Not only that, I used to constantly turn around to see if there was someone behind me.
I played with in game sensitivity 7 and I didnt even know the mouse dpi. All I knew was that I was able to turn 360 just by moving my mouse 7-10cm.
Prevent suprise buttseck.
Trydamere The clueless king Yeah that's still pretty high, I use 1.46 @ 450 dpi
st0nnec0ld holy shit. 360 when you move 7-10cm? thats insane
I'm just used to a high sensitivity. I play at 2300 dpi and 2.15 sensitivity in game. I can't stand having to move my whole arm to do a 180.
i was the same i got used to it.
I play with 8 sensitivity. 2.15 is way to low for me. I can barley stand 4
xXWolfxOwnsXx same dpi?
unitedgray wtf that's like 8 cm/360
*****
It's roughly 1" to move corner to corner on my 27" monitor.
Even tho this video is old it's still one of the best explained videos out there!
Good video. I need to watch this again. I've been owning a Deathadder for some time now and still can't get my settings right. Now I know. Thanks for the video.
hey warowl, my mousepad is about 1 meter long (razer goliathus speed extended/xl), but my table is so small i can use just 25cm of it for the mouse and 18cm are hanging down the table T.T fix dis pliz! Kappa
Get a bigger table?
Buy roccat hero/hiroxD
Banjo Mayhem
the kind of table i want does not exist :P
modding my table maybe? >.
Flaim Yesh. My table is self made. It's has 2 parts (they make a 90° corner). And fits my PC, keyboard, 50cm x 50cm mouse pad, printer, school stuff, random stuff, radio, subwoofers and a laptoo
SexiestGuyAlive
that's awesome :D
ok so I'm switching to a 24 inch monitor, from a 14 inch laptop. on my laptop I play at 1320 by 720p. I will switch to 1920 by 1080. I will always keep my 16:9 ratio. will I have to redo my sensitivity
nah
perhaps, i had to atleast, but thats because of the different res. a normal 16:9 would either have 1280x720 or 1920x1080, so I would consider a tiny change
I play on huge Dell monitors at work and have a relatively small laptop at home. I keep everything at 400 DPI with 2.9 - 3 in game sens. I do keep the same 800x600 resolution on both the huge monitor and home, though.
WarOwl, thanks for all your work, I am watching any vid of yours, I appreciate your work man. This wid helped me a lot !!! Deathmatching with AWP is sooo much easier (From score 30/15 I can make like 50/10) Thanks !!!
THANK YOU WAROWL OH MAA GAAAWD lol, none of other videos mentions 800 dpi if u native on resolution this help me so much, much love warowl, keep up the good work :)
sucks i have a small mousepad... ;-;
I use the rest of the couch i'm sitting in as my mousepad
Paul Schreurs well you're lucky... im using a glass table
how does that even work ?
Paul Schreurs what. mousepad on glass table or a glass table o.o
just the glass table
My problem, when I move my hand to the left I have perfect aim. But when I move my hand to the right I get all wobbly and I miss my shots. Assuming it's my hand and I'm burdened with a fucktard of a hand is there a way to fix this without getting tendon surgery!?!?
I have that too. I assume you're right handed. It's probably just how our wrists and hands work. Try to maybe experiment with different wrist angles and vertical positions. Keep your wrist as straight as possible, ideally.
Have you tried drawing straight lines in paint?
Gabe Newell
Not me, I use my left :p (and my right for mouse)
Josh Conant lol
Gabe Newell U sir made my day xD
Thanks for this guide just came back to cs after half year break and had problems with my sensitivity
Thanks for the tips, still come back and show this video to other people
*Sets sensitivity to 100
"It is easier to move at higher sensitivities."
*proceeds to stumble across the entire map
my mouse works seemingly fine on my table. what difference would a mousepad make?
There's nothing wrong with that, BUT a mousepad is optimised for optics of mice.
LepsuSankari It will also destroy your mouse feet if it's not perfectly smooth
asdf TRUST me... I used to do the same and LEGIT, once I got a mouse pad, my aim got literally over 100x better. Can't explain it, you just gotta try it.
トラ MattTheRat | ☆CS:GO / Anime Covers マッ haha yeah dude I got a steelseries mousepad a few weeks ago. never going back
asdf steelseries is so comfortable, mouse pad and the mouse as well... i used to use shitty mouse and no mouse pad and thought im fine with it, now i got rival and pad and i could never perform the same without them
started recently and thanks a lot for the tipsy tips!
I used to play with 1600 dpi and 8 in game sensitivity, when I started playing at 800 dpi 1.6 in game sensitivity I noticed a MASSIVE improvement to my aim, it's weird at first, but after a few hours of practice it's really amazing.
"Many the angry neckbeard yelling at me" BWAHAHAHA csgo in a nutshell :D
just download aimbot...
+FlextoonTV and get VAC'd.
VAC
+FlextoonTV lol
I hope you're kidding...
is it not easy to realize its a joke? lmao
Thank you so so much. I recently got in hardcore gaming and was doing a bunch of research on gear, pc’s, monitors, etc. Not to mention a lot of practice. But i was having a hard time deciding on whether i should change the sensitivity/DPI and if I did, how? This video was very helpful thank you so much once again
Turning on Raw Input and I edited the sensitivity in console you deserve the new sub!
Wtf, WarOwl has a paw?!
my mouse has acceleration and prediction build in so I can't turn them off :(
then you need a better mouse ;) look for a 3360 or 3366 sensor !
the bit about the mouse being an extension of the arm/hand. thats the exact thing a martial arts teacher says about any weapon you train with.
For me, I found that shooting the wall, and adjusting the sensitivity until when I go from far left of the mouse pad to far right, it lands right back on the same spot to be the best sensitivity for me personally.
I put my sensitivity at 4.20 because it's a funny number. I plan of raising it to 6.90.
Now that's epic. Just a tip, use only your wrist for a 6.90 sens 👍
Kid.
@@ymtsalegassem.4723 :(
He's gonna be pissed at my 4'' by 4'' mouse pad XD
Should've watched this video years ago. Oops! It was published just 2 years ago. Very informative and useful tips all the same. Huge thumbs up!
good 1 bro, a lot more clear and useful than doom 49 , like it
I lowered my sensitivity. I now play on 1000 dpi and 5.5 ingame sens.
+ABFABC jesus.. this guy's sensitivity is in heaven
*****
it was 1600 dpi and 6 ingame :D
I am now playing on 600 dpi 5 ingame
+ABFABC im 3400 dpi and 6 in game and it works pretty fine
400 and 1.92 here...
DLLO Eiv im in gnm.....
When i started playing cs, it was cs 1.6, i played there with 400dpi and 20 ingame sens :D, now 10 years after on csgo i play 400 dpi and 1.7 ingame sens
Thanks! Increased my accuracy!
thanks man for video and i found my perfect sensitivity after changing from normal mouse to gaming mouse heres like for you
if move my mouse fast like he does it wouldnt turn it would just stop turnign after 10 degrees or go up, ;( plez halp i have a red dragon mouse Centrophorus at 1000dpi at 1 sensitivity.
***** ty man! and yeh i reached supreme on this mouse and its so frustrating not being able to turn around oh well.
+Geet Bhargava That's the exact same mouse I've been using for a little while haha. I love it! Plus, Hyperion Fury sounds awesome for a mouse xd
***** I had to pay 60 euro's for it though. Which is like 80 dollars
Look at your mouse driver and disable the bullsht with the mousepad Setting. My mate had the Same Problem and that fixed it
lol i got a RGB corsair gaming optical mouse.
5600 DPI and 6 sensitivity ftw :D
Finaly found my perfect sensity which is pretty high. 2.48 ingame with 1100 dpi, went from silver to mg2 in a month just because of that.
How many cm per 360 is that?
Thank you, very helpful video
I have a 1920 x 1080 monitor and I play 1280 x 720. But I like to use 1600 DPI and 4.65 in game sensitivity. Although I believe my aim is on point I recently decided to try using a lower in game sensitivity to see if I could become more accurate over time. HOWEVER I HAVE A BIG PROBLEM. I have never had to move my hand side to side like how you can see in this video. I always just have to rotate my wrist to do a full turn. I find it physicaly retarded to hold my arm up as I aim. This may sound stupid, but how do you people manage to be able to constantly move your whole arm when you play? Also I would like to know how WarOwl got the formula for DPI - Resolution you are playing. Why would it be optimal for you to be using 800 DPI in a resolution lower then your monitor?
I have a similar issue. Im used to using my wrist, and using my arm just feels awkward :-/
Same here i actually play at 3700 dpi and 4 and i can get back to back flick shots with awp when i'm in good form, though i guess i does get awkward sometimes when my wrist isn't feeling the groove but i play mostly by wrist in all my games.
Well I found an...unorthodox method to help me adjust to the low sensitivity
For about two months I jacked off using my right hand (which I use to manipulate the mouse) instead of my left.
Surprisingly it worked pretty well and I was able to use low sensitivities. So uh...try that
I play at 1080p with 2.75 ingame sens with 800dpi (2200 raw sens). I make large movements with my arm and my actual aim is still done with my wrist (for instance flicking to watch cat from car on dust 2 would be using your arm while actually tracking and shooting the enemy would be a wrist movement). Sitting in a chair with arms helps with this style of aiming. IMO your sens is way too high; the highest pro sens I can think of is f0rest, Hiko, or GeT_RiGhT with 400 dpi with 4 ingame sens (1600 raw sens). My sens is pretty much lowered as far as I can get it without buying a "gaming" mousepad.
stick to the sensitivity you are most comfortable with. Just because most people are palm grip and aim with their arm and need a low sensitivity to do that doesn't mean everyone has to. If you are a high sensitivity wrist player then do that. if your aim is good then it is fine, just watch recordings of yourself in slow mo and watch and see if you under shoot or over shoot and adjust accordingly.
what different between ( high sensitivity and low DPI ) and ( LOW sensitivity and high DPI )
It depends on your mouse. You want to use the native DPI of your mouse for maximum precision. Most mice have a native DPI of 400 or 800 DPI, so either of these numbers is ideal. Then you want to adjust your sensitivity in consequence. The vast majority of CS:GO professional players use a DPI of 400 and a sensitivity between 1 and 3. As you can see, you can't really use a super high DPI (like 1600+) because you would have to put your sensitivity way too low and it would be imprecise.
i have a normal mouse and there a button on the top , and there are three diffrent levels of DPI when i press that button , but i dont know what the number of the three DPI i got !!
This my problem brother
WaNTeD Try going to the driver. There you can set and adjust each level of sensitivity. If you still find problems with that , try looking on google for your mouses stock dpi levels.
Lenfal You are 100% correct about native DPI and using higher DPI and lower sens. But I would recommend 1.5 to 4 sens at 400 dpi instead of 1-3. Because: 1 sens is wayyy to slow, and requires turn binds like Roca (0.97 sens) who uses caps lock and F keys to flick/turn around/etc. The most common sens is like 1.8-2.5ish but there's a ton of players who use the range 2.9-4 sens like: f0rest, ex6tenz, hiko, jdm64, get_right, schnedier, xizt, happy, s1mple, nbk, shox, edward, etc. :) it just depends on wrist or arm movement when it comes to sensitivity! :D Also: playstyle, if you love entry fragging and it's basically all you do, high sensitivity is the way to go because high sensitivity DOMINATES up close and can flick angles much quicker, it is a life saver for entry fragging. Low sensitivity is great for awpers and support players. But then again it's all preference, if low sensitivity is the "god tier" sensitivity for awping, why is s1mple one of the best awpers with 4.8 sens at 400 dpi? It all comes down to preference :D
WaNTeD
Just google your mouse...
Using 800dpi on 0.85 sensitivity! and i think this is very fast.
mouse pad is Razer Goliatus Control ?
Well done! Nice guide...
i use 24 1080p monitor and 2050 dpi and 3.31 sensitivty in game,is it ok? i feel comfortable with that setting tho
Tech Beam bro that sensitivity's super high, I suggest you get used to a lower dpi and in game sensitivity so your more consistent and will improve your aim
Thats insanely high
And now you know why you're stuck at silver.
input lol, I turn down my setting to 1.5sens and 1000dpi,its so much better,im mg btw
Sonoda Zakura you should try lower the dpi to 400 see if it makes a difference. It felt more snappier and responsive
My desk is too tall so its really awkward to play :P
+TheAbeham My desk is so small I don't have a mousepad.
S.Rolphsen That sucks :/
+TheAbeham whatever you do don't dish out cash on a gaming chair to elevate you, the things are overpriced AF. Just buy an office chair from ikea or come up with some crazy setup of a box under your chair or something XD
i dont have mouse
+Benjamín Jonek Hah the meme is real
He made a closer by saying that he hasn't got one. Well played sir
I was a Quake guy back in the day, and I tried playing on low sensitivities for a while and it just felt gross to me. I've compromised and now play on 400dpi and 3.2 in-game, I find it's a nice balance and a far cry better than what I used to play on which was about 5-6 sens. Once I got over that pressure to copy what pros use I was much happier.
Silvers are so stigmatized, yet probably almost half of all players are silver...
WarOwl in his tutorials talked about how he used to suck but he pressed on and became amazing, and now here he is making sarcastic fun of beginners in his silver cast...
Actually, no. In competitive match making, the average is somewhere around gn3/gn4. That is to say, 50% of people are below (or on) that rank.
No, that would the median...
There are a lot more silvers than people in any other skill group.
Andrew Ricklefs
Based on what statistics are you basing this off of? Valve haven't released any statistics of how many players are in each skill group. All they have said is that 50% of people are below GN3/GN4, so it's reasonable to assume the average is somewhere around there.
There are a lot more silver ranks (6) than of any other specific skill group. And above that threshold there are novas, mgs, legendary eagle ranks, and first clas/global elite skill groups, while below that there is just silver and nova. And also, something that is true of any sport or anything that takes skill is that most people are at the lower skill level and as you go up the skill ladder there are less and less people.
Anyone else having server issues?
I can't join competitive nor deathmatches...
I've been having this problem intermittently over the past few days and raising my highest acceptable ping fixed it.
I cant See Community Servers :(
razor5cl my highest acceptable ping is at 150.
I raised to 200 and still didn't fixed it.
If i raise a little bit more i'm gonna find servers with 500 ping...
razor5cl Apprently everybody is lagged.
I raised my max ping to 350 and i found a server with everyone from my country, they all said that is bugged.
Ziphy Caddish I have found the solution!!! put this: +clientport 27005
on your launch options and deactivate your anti-virus. spread the word
The lower the DPI you set your mouse to the further you have to move your mouse which makes it easier to make small precise movements. This can be good for sniping stationary targets but it also makes it so you have to move your mouse further which could make it take longer. The best thing to do is experiment around and find what feels most comfortable to you. If you feel like you don't have enough precision lower your DPI and if you don't feel like you have enough speed increase it.
Hey what keyboard do you use? And what Cherry MX key do you prefer? I'm going to buy a mechanical keyboard and I wanted your opinion. Thanks!
The title said nothing about CS:GO, only how to find the mouse settings. THIS WAS NOT HELPFULL. I wanted the general Mouse settings. NEXT TIME SAY THE MOST IMPORTANT INFOS ABOUT THE VIDEO IN THE TITLE. Just please.
trollolololo
This is a csgo channel lol
Csgo is in the thumbnail
You're an idiot lol
Youre a fucking moron
800 DPI @ 2 In game makes good for me. I play on a laptop, on a laptop stand, and although I have a Logitech giant mousepad, I really only have about 12 inches on mouse room from side to side.
My accuracy and gameplay tripled once I found my perfect sens, and you will too!
Hey @TheWarOwl , on question of sensitivity and mouse input, do you think theres any merit of arm/hand use?
I say this because i play with my wrist support and my elbow floating. Yet i found interesting that you play with your arm deep into the table and use it as support.
Maybe it all boils down to preference...
Yes it is all just preference
if you have raw input on, do you still need to disable "enhance pointer precision" in the windows settings? I like mouse acceleration on my desktop.
thanks so much i just fixed my issue :)
Good stuff man! And, I'm still slightly confused! :D Great! My life!
Really Helpful :)
Hey Warowl, I see pro players like JW, shroud, and Stewie hitting nasty bhop kills sometimes. I remember Stewie and Shroud said that they play with 400 dpi and 1.85 sens from their streams. Personally, I play with 400 dpi and 2 sens and all other settings matched to your video. Im a total noob when it comes to bhopping. I am getting better but I have to increase my sens even higher to get a smooth bhop going. Am I probably just taking too wide of bhop strafes or is my technique just wrong? I do play on 128 ticks with a 144 Hz monitor if that matters as well.
Kevin nguyen get a hogher dpi mouse and keep the sens low. Higher dpi and low sens is better than low dpi and high sens because low dpi and high sens will skip pixels
do you use 400 or 800 dpi? since you upload videos in 1080p i assume that's your native resolution
The ideal config would be going from the left to the right of your mouse pad doing a 360º or 180º spin with your character in game.
This is the easiest way to get consistency and transfer it from a game to another.
Other important thing is, don't go from a hardware accelerated mouse with 1600dpi to 400dpi from one day to another, decrease it slowly, a bit peer gaming session until you find a comfortable and good setting.
Still trying to figure mine out,
I'm pretty happy with how it is 500 dpi, 1.2 sensitivity
Maybe this is a stupid question but how did you get yourAK to be on the left for most of that video?
If you have a mouse where you can change DPI with a button, set the first one to which you're comfortable in Windows.
The second one to the highest possible.
In-game play with the sensitivity so that you feel comfortable.
This will make precise movements not skip anything, even if a thing you're shooting is smaller than a pixel.
Hi, I'm trying to figure out a good sens for me. Can you tell me what distance (in cm, or inch or whatever you prefer) you have to cover from left to right to make a 360°?
I used to play low sensitivity, but coming from a very long time of other fps games I turned my sens back up a bit, I just don't like using a whole bunch of my arm to move, I prefer wrist movement, so much so that I effectively hold the mouse on its side, its probably not a good habit, but my mouse is never straight, always pointed slightly towards the left.
Will be using this once I get my new mouse :) Replacing my Deathadder Elite with a Katar Pro XT
Is mouse dpi also affected by resolution??? What if I switch from full HD to 4k??
The bonus tip at the end jump scared me
so do I need to be able to do a 180 from the middle of the mouse pad to one side or a swipe across the whole mouse pad
So I'm playing on 450 dpi on a really low resolution you said 400 so I was wondering if it affects anything.
warowl can you tell me what kind of logitech mouse you used?mine is g100
btw warowl what about the ordinary settings, pointer speed etc. does it work on cs?
I normally rest my wrist on the mouse pad as well as my elbow on my armrest and use a higher sensitivity since my wrist mostly stays in place and I'm guessing this is bad. should I pick my wrist and elbow up or just my wrist or is that actually fine?
“If you have to keep picking up your hand your sens is probably too low”
Proceeds to pick up hand like a mad man
I liked the Bonus tip! funny
+Deyvid Flores "you NEED a giant mousepad" kinda killed my dreams. I don't have one. Don't have room for one on my desk, either, so if I really wanted to I'd need a new desk. rip.
If you want to play with higher dpi but with same sensitivity you have to multiply your sensitivity and dpi and divide by your new dpi like this. Ex: SENS-1.28 x 400 dpi divide by 800. Your answer is your new sensitivity.
The Rule of thumb about dpi for low res vs native res is awesome. I'm usually 2 x 400dpi on csgo but everything else is 800dpi with 35cm/360
WArowl : i have a sens. of 400 dpi and ingame 1 but iam still Shaking a bit. And i cant do a 180 in my musepad. Should i higher or loser my sens.
