If you find the question that easy, then why are you even asking?
There is more to this game than aim, so I guess it depends on what you want out of the game.
I rather move smoothly, than to not get killed only because I cannot turn around properly and things like that.
Besides, low sense is an advantage in far distance, but high sense has the advantage in close/normal combat.
I always try to not expose myself for situations my sense cant handle equal good, and I dont have those positions in our wars.
If you want higher sense, due to different reasons, just pick a sense that feels comfortable and get used to it. I played with very very low sense earlier, but just picked a sense and got used to it.
Headshots come out quicker with high sens imo. Where I scout with low sens, the high sense just pops on it. Find nice settings, and learn to move your mouse properly. Try only pointing the foreside of your mouse for example. Only slide the complete mouse when your target hits your border. Decrease your borders by higher sensitivity. When you cannot move without jitter, it's to high or your fps or mouse sux. (last 1 seems out of the question since all gaming-mice can do good with high sens.)
HMMM? what about DPI, sensor--->fps,differs per mouse, ingame FPS,windows sensi, registry settings (pointer precision or not, if yes own settings or standard) even perhaps the use of accelfix.exe, r_mode setting, and then finally the ingame setting, and the use of m_filter even matters.
What I mean is that just mentioning a ET ingame sensi setting doesn't give real info.
I do not mean to flame you, just giving you the infos :d
I use midsens, works nice. =D
40cm = 360 degrees ingame, maybe a bit lower, but smth like that.
I can turn around if I just move the mouse fast enough, and I can aim good on close combats (try to hold your crosshair as high as you think the enemy will be with his head) and long (find a spot where you can shoot at enemy, and then when you get shooted at you can just move behind something)..
But aim isnt the most important.
So try to get better at other things then aim..
Im too rambo sometimes, I blame the publics. :P
But Im thinking on to change my sens to 30cm = 360 degrees ingame..
Then I can maybe move more smoothly.
Haha Fates [ex-fdnl] told me to move your mouse from the left to the right 20 cm. And then, you should move 180 degrees!! Thats the perfect sens, i could believe it, beause is was used to sens 0.60 or something :P .. but since i played with that sens (=2) it really rocks!
Why not make a sensitivity script? When you're getting backraped exec the script so you can turn around fast enough and than just exec it again to change back to your low sens. Solves the problem tbh.
sample; (just edit/delete the things you don't need)
bind mouse2 "vstr ks"
set ks2 "seta fovswitch vstr near; seta cg_fov 105; seta sensitivity 3; seta cg_crosshairsize 44; set ks vstr ks3"
set ks3 "seta fovswitch vstr far; seta cg_fov 90; seta cg_crosshairsize 44; seta sensitivity 1.5; set ks vstr ks2"
set ks "vstr ks2"
I have to disagree with you perfo. Let's say my normal sens is 1.0 and someone is backraping me. I have this little script @ my mouse button2 that changes sens from 1.0 to 5.0(just an example). I hit the mouse2 and make a few cm turn with my mouse to the left/right, it doesn't matter and before my turn is complete (that takes few ms to perform) i hit mouse2 again and i'm back @ 1.0 sens, i'm facing the enemy and i'm ready to kill him.
Might work for you but I couldn't get used to such a script. Thing is it's best to learn control your aim when you're constantly using the same settings :P And if you get backraped you won't win most of the time anyway

win sens: 6
DPI: 400
Hz rate: 1000Hz
Ingame sens: 1.76

bind mouse2 "vstr ks"

set ks3 "seta fovswitch vstr far; seta cg_fov 90; seta cg_crosshairsize 44; seta sensitivity 1.5; set ks vstr ks2"
set ks "vstr ks2"
it's better to take a highsens if you dont want to be backraped anymore such as 8 cm for 180.
That script wont help you in any way, changing sens ingame sucks.
Just try to find a sens that is perfect.. You can move around, and you can aim decent.
Not any ultra-low/high sens that you hate using. =D
Now it's you're time to convince me i'm wrong :)
