I know ppl who set their sensativity to 10 ( which is so hard to snip with) but for me:..

boxer (everyone has to have that)
sensativity 6
and thats pretty much it. lol

I have all my profiles set to the eighth notch, because I like to have the ability to turn around in time if I'm about to be taken out from behind, or from the side. I have only been playing with the sensitivity at eight for several months. I remember when I thought that six was to fast. LOL

I use one of the weirdest setups, Inverted Legacy with a look sensitivity of 5.

Green thumb inverted, and set to 8 sensitivity. The abitilty to maintain your turning while punching at the same time really helps in close quaters. Having a high look sensitivity is an advantage because you can jump over opponents and turn round before they can lol.

Took a while to get used to the switch but it helps in small maps when your out-numbered.

Opinions are like arseholes - everybody has one.

Knowledge is knowing Tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

There is no such thing as a bad decision, only good decisions based on flawed information.

I use "The Duke" controller (the origanal massive one) because it fits my hands perfectly. I have the standard control setup with the view stick inverted and my look sensitivity pumped up to 10. I started building it up as soon as i got the game and now anything else feels too sluggish. I don't need the boxer setup because i can quickly press the B button and get back to the view stick. I can circle a huter while melee attacking him all the way. Having a high look sensitivity also helps you dance around an opponent in close quarters fighting meaning they can't get a shot on you.

I noticed this the other day when playing multiplayer on Hang em' high... If you fall from a height and spin 180 degress or more ( with a high sensitivity ) to shoot someone at the bottom, where the shots hit are slightly lagged behind where your aiming. Only happens for an instant, but in Prisoner+rockets i've missed a few shots jumping down on people. I had 'em, but the rocket flies into the wall. :/ Is there a ceiling on how quickly you can move your aim ? Load up a split-screen and have one MC spin on the spot ( with a high sensitivity ), you'll see him overtake himself in the spin.

You do feel faster moving with a higher sensitivity, moving in-between grunts, punching them feels good :D . Also you can see who has there look set to 3 because they look as if there stuck to the floor.

I found when i switched the punch to the view stick i was punching a lot more. Even though it was a miniscule effort to move the thumb all the way to the B button and back, if feels a lot more fluid. I thought of it like this- When punching you'll be close in and probably need to move in all directions or make adjustments fast, to zoom in you'll either be standing still, or side-stepping in one direction.

Anyway, has this ever happened to you - your in a heated one-on-one and you side-step, but instead of that you push the crouch button on the stick by mistake ? and your stuck to the spot and then get nailed ? I found that happened a lot with the old official, but since switching to the "s" it's been cool.

Cya-

Green thumb all the way!!!(snipe button switch with melee button) so snipe is B and melee is click right thumbstick, this works good for close range ppl like me because you can hit them while moving your camera to see them, it allows much faster reactions to a surprise attack from around the corner or something...

SOUTH PAW DEFAULT

ON 10 NO LESS and i am a better sniper for it to.

My friend uses southpaw jumpy on sensativity 6
He is scary when it comes to shotguns and rocket launchers.
Though, everytime i take over for him i try to jump but a throw a nade on myself.

We both use Xbox S controllers.
