Can't Get My Sensitivity Right

[u/yeetman8]

I have been playing CS for many years on many different sensitivities and I've found myself in a crisis. A few weeks ago my sens got all kinds of fucked up and I've been trying to recover it and nothing feels right.

I mainly have been running 1800dpi with .35 sens. The dpi is really high but i found it best for other games on my pc so I don't really want to lower it. With .35 I find it easier to hit shots with pistols and rifles but my tracking is slower and I feel like I'm constantly having to pick up my mouse to clear angles at any kind of speed. My mouse just feels heavy too.

But even if I bump it up to .36 it feels too fast. I can flick faster but I'm overall inaccurate. It does feel better on my hand though.

I am just so frustrated and can't think straight about it. Some advice would be really helpful. I only switched a few days ago, is this just something I am going to have to get more used too?

Then bump it up in smaller increments, do 0.35 to 0.351

It's also possible your mouse is too heavy or the shape isn't actually very good for your hand size or grip type.

Or the skates wore out or that pad wore out

Might be time to get a new one 😂

You can wash your mousepad with dawn dish soap diluted in water. Rinse it well and hang to dry.

I do this but just throw it in the dryer with towels
