I got nothing to do atm and my connection is going crazy so i thought i would play around with my sensitivity a bit. My whole life i've been playing on a really high sens, mostly 5-6 cm for a full turn - basicly just using my wrist to move.
Anyway playing quake live more and more recently it is close to impossible to track on quick movements from left to right, also i've seen some comments of people saying they can aim better the lower sensitivity they use so yea..
I've changed my sens from 4 to 1.3 and it takes like 19cm for a full turn now. After about 10 minutes i more or less got used to the movement, still feels _ridiculously_ slow though.
My biggest problem is: my arm is pretty exhausted after now since i had to hold it in the air pretty much the whole time to turn properly.
I know there are many people that use far lower sensitivitys then 19cm/turn so how do you handle it?
tl:dr version: How much cm/full turn do you use and how do you hold your arm when playing.

lowsens is something like 40 cm for turn180°
-_-
bigger your accel bigger your penis
or something like this
0 is for girls
CARE!
Twister change it too much, i dont think that this is the best way.
otherwise wrist is not lying on mousepad, obviously (it's automatic reaction... try it out, you'll see)
and i'm talking about rtcw here.
It is a bit different with rtcw though because you will not be turning so often, and much more long distance shooting going on then in quake
and it was wrist aiming... mostly
my wrist constantly on the pad, but not resting on it when shooting obviously
edit: ow quake? prolly triple or 4x that sens :P
need like 25 cm for 360°
whilst low sens makes me track better, hit like double more headshots and smoothens my movement, it tires my arm(which I keep on the pad while playing) quite a lot so I like to have my sens higher, it does make my aim and movement choppy but my arm is more grateful
from what I've heard and (I think) read it is better to keep your hand in the air with a relatively high sens, aiming with your wrist and moving with whole hand and holding your mouse in a claw-like grip(it's supposed to make your response faster)
but then at the other hand, what use do you have with the fast responsibility if your response isn't accurate.
atleast for me the reason why i keep my wrist on the pad, is the way more accurate flickshots.
Thanks for the reply, I guess I feel pretty much the same :)
The claw thing is interesting, I've just tried it out and it gives me the feeling of having more control over the mouse. Downside being that it has an additional tiring effect. Besides I think it does not work too well with my mouse (diamonback) since i cant really hold it properly in a clawgrip.
edit: lol:
try the best sens: razer 3G diamondback, default settings in windows (6/11), no accel, 800 dpi, 2.2 ingame.
and dont remove your underarm from the table, just be comfortable, have your arm a bit stretched, your wrist must be straight in the air (dont put it down, it makes shit aim).
