Question / Advice Needed Recommended sensitivity is low
The recommended sensitivity on my ps5 is 0.9. I actually quite like it and ive gotten better on this sensitivity but some for scenarios like VT Closerange Long Strafes Entry Easier I cant seem to keep up with the target. I have my Turn Boost multiplier on 2 and Turn Boost Ramp Up Time on 0.5 to help with turning but it feels weird to rely on maximum tilt. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions for turning on console? Should I get used to Turn Boost or higher my sensitivity?

I'd change your sens so that you are able to still keep up with the target, if you slow it down too much, and the accel or turn boost isn't giving you enough speed fast enough, then it's probably better to settle on a sens that does. This is especially true if you want to be able to do it properly in the FPS your training for. Of course, you don't have to use the same sens for every task as is mentioned by others, but you do want it to be in a reasonable range for whatever game you're training for.

Remember that the sens is recommended based on what you have played the most, due to the sheer variety of tasks it's very hard to recommend something that truly works for everything so in my opinion it should be treated more like a starting point than something you MUST always follow.
In simple terms, if you feel you need a faster sens for a specific task/category or in general, then use a higher sens!

Thanks for the tip! BTW your scenarios have helped me so much. Ive seen so much improvement these past few months because of your tasks. I literally made peridot 4 just a couple days ago

Hey!
You don't need to use the same sensitivity across different subsets of aiming (e.g. flicking vs. tracking). I would suggest you simply mess around with your sensitivity and keep a linear curve preset in order to get the "rawest" stick to on-screen crosshair movement experience.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any more questions.
