The cm/360 or inch/360 thread :D

[MiLkZz]

This thread is for people that ask: "What is your sens?" And copy that afterwards, because they asked a good player
so that sensitivity must be good for them too... You can clearly see here that sensitivity is determined by multiple
parameters. So just asking the ingame sensitivity won't help you much. Besides you can also see that everyone plays
with different settings .

@testforecho: I don't know how you can play with such a ridiculous low sensitivity xd, how can you quickly react?
And you must be burning through your mouse feets :p.

And I used to think that high was only moving your fingertips, so your mouse only moved a couple of millimeters :/.

You call medium sens (30cm) ridiculously low, ridiculously low is 80cm for 360 degrees

'ridiculously' low, high etc. means so low or so high that very few, if any, players use it.
Ask around (especially to players who play etpro, not jaymod) and see how many players play with 5cm for a 360, then ask how many play with 30 or 40cm.
If 5cm feels comfortable for you, there is no reason for you to change, but don't tell me it is a common sensitivity... mine is common, (if being common mattered for sensi, it doesn't) ;p

High sens means using your fingers (and in fact people who use palm grip are never high sensers), but there is no need to make a 180 with your fingers only, in 99% of fights your opponent is in front of you, so you never need to cover more than 180 degrees, and normally much less than that. So you don't need to waste precision by covering fight angles that are not likely to happen in game (imho)

When I used to play with highsens (17-18cm for a 360, yes that is called highsens by many players) I used my fingertips for medium-long range fights and to make tiny adjustments, then I used my wrist in close range, and my whole forearm to turn 180. Reaction time is in your brain not in your hand, many players play with 50-60cm for a 360 I don't think they are slow. I am not a good player and I would still be low with 5cm for a 360. Many etpro top aimers play with 40cm and they can react fast enough it seems, or they would change it.

A player with 40cm/360 must move around 1/10th of a millimeter to move 1 pixel. With 5cm/360 you need to move 1/100th of a millimeter for 1 pixel!
That's why not many people use that sens, you need to have an accuracy of 1/100th of a millimeter on your table, in slightly more than 1 cm you cover your whole screen (!), while a player with 'normal' sens covers that area with 10cm on his desk
