This isn't a brag video by any means - in fact, my MMR went down a tad with the making of this video.

I'd won a DM, and the guys in the match asked what my mouse sensitivity is - it's 22.

They asked what the Mouse DPI is, it's 5600 dpi.

More is better, right?  

They asked how I could aim like that - I told them it was easy, I just click the mouse when they're in the crosshair.  Simple, really :)

Then they asked for a video of gameplay - I joined a little late to the match (getting Shadowplay turned on) and then never quite caught up.

There's some good footage of me aiming, and a really nice two-shot doublekill in here.  But there's a lot more of me getting crushed back to 5th place :/

Anyway, I play with high mouse dps/sensitivity, and this is what it looks like.

Not at all. In Hawken, a high sensitivity configuration will only make precise mouse movements difficult. You are aware that there is a turning cap, right?

You can see that in the way you reticule leaps around your enemies as you try to adjust your aim.

22 @ 5600dpi is insane!

I'm 10 @ 1600dpi @ 1000hz

Oh, I'm also a jerk. XD 2:40 mark

Edit:  I'm aware of the turn cap.  I use it to my advantage often (other players' limits).

I don't often actually aim.  I usually have a sense of when to click (or right click).  When I slow down to aim, I seldom miss.  When I do it this way, I seldom die/lose (this video notwithstanding).

Yeah, the video shows your aim is a bit all over the place, might want to turn it down.

OK - will try something less-sensitive in a different account (before the beer catches up with me :))

OK, just tried 18 sensitivity (mouse the same).  I like it better.

This wasn't supposed to be a 'help Luna dominate' thread.  Thanks, though :)

(And, 21stPilot, you were right.  I owe you an apology.)

No worries!

While your initial setup might have worked a while for burst weapons such as the flak cannon, you would have found it very hard to do anything with sustained weapons.

Also, if my advice helps you dominate, I'm glad for that!

Edit: And if we're comparing mouse settings, my setup is: 4 ingame, 1600 DPI, 1080p monitor (since DPI = dots per inch, your resolution is also an important factor to consider while setting up/giving your sensitivity.)

low speed (11) with hi dpi (1800) for some reason almost seems like auto aim.
mine is good to go.
:)
O
edit: some explanation for my opinion, i seem to just drive and the sites float into a target much more smoothly, and i just click. boom! some folks are getting an odd opinion that i am an amazing Tech. I think it's just graphics. i'm def not all that.
