What Sensitivity/DPI Do Yall Use?
Recently i can't seem to find the darn right sensitivity to use in this game! I always run into some sort of issue with whatever i try out.
For example, on 800 DPI on my mouse, and highish sensitivity in game. This makes mouse movement out of game incredibly SLOW, but makes the in-game movement pretty good for turning corners without losing you aim.
Right now i use 1000 DPI on my mouse and 40ish sensitivity in game. This allows me to actually use my mouse outside of the game, but result in in-game issues like when turning around corners, it just makes it sloppy and you can't keep your crosshair head level worth for jack diddly squat! BUT it works perfectly for tapping at long distance, so this makes my long range game awesome, but my short range game, AWFUL.
Now, ive heard about all these myths and legends of being able to "mathematically" pick your sensitivity by calculating your screen size/resolution, mouse pad side and how long it takes to do a full 360 or a 180 from one end to the mousepad, to the other end, but this really is just a myth, it's all about what's comfortable to you is what iv'e also heard.
Funny thing is, this sensitivity and DPI works fine in CS-GO, i have no issues going around corners, or having CQB combat, but in crossfire it's sloppy as heck.
Also there is one more myth, that binding your firing button to your keyboard is actually a lot better, and here's why. Depending on your mouse/ mousepad, some mice are sort of "rounded" on the bottom where their tracker is(the laser). So when you shoot with your mouse, that tiny little rounding makes your aim go off a tad bit every time you put weight on the fire button of the mouse because well, it's basically rolling a tad bit. Apparently binding your fire button to your keyboard completely eliminates all mouse error like that, so all you have to do is aim with the mouse. But that strictly relies on your mouse/mousepad.
For example i have a razer naga chroma and the razer firefly mousepad. Since the naga is rounded where the sensor is, it results in the problem i described above where when i shoot, the aim will go off a tad bit every time you click because its making that sensor detect that slight movement because of the bottom. SOOOO obviously i need to get a FPS mouse, and not an MMO mouse because of that issue, but it's not the main issue at the moment, i can deal with that.
The issue i keep running into is the sensitivity is always too low, or too high, it's either too low for accuracy sake, or it's too high for turning corners sake, So how do i find that happy medium in between that? What are some DPI/ In game sensitivity you guys use?

That is a mad low sensitivity, what is your dpi ? You can check it in your mouse settings depending on what windows version you have. That seems incredibly low too me, i wouldn't even be able to turn a corner or turn around if i got shot at from behind xD,

800 dpi
crossfire sens 6-8
cs:go sens 1.35 however if i wanna play kz or surf where 360 jumps/strafes can be required I go up to sens 2
EDIT: The legend/myth you are talking about is to help and improve your aim if you take the game in serious and want to play at a next level. But if you play the game just for fun then you can play with 3200 dpi and sens 100 :P Changing from a high sens to a low one is a challenge and it needs practice till you get used to it.
PS:I don't wanna know how slow it feels for you 800 dpi with sens 100. I do like 10 360's moving the mouse from an end to another on mousepad.
