As sensitivity goes up accuracy in intense mid range battles goes down. As sensitivity goes down accuracy in intense close range battles goes down.
I never understood this, and I may just be an exception, but Ive never had a problem with long range shooting. I accidently switched over to 10 sensitivity sometime during Halo 3 and, if anything, have gotten better because of it.

I look at it like this: People who become accustomed using higher sensitivities dont have a problem with it because it has become "normal" to them.

play 5 games of snipers at 10, turn it down to 5, play five more games and come back and tell us which games you have a better head shot % in.

There is no "best" sensitivity. It's all preference.

I play on 4. I used to play on a 5, but it made me miss some easy shots from time to time. Then I toned it down to 3. I played better on a 3, but it was just too slow at times. 4 is perfect.

I prefer 6, Reach is too slow for me.

But I would say 5.

  • 06.17.2012 12:08 AM PDT

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

I normally use 4 in REACH.

Halo CE I used 7.

Halo 2 and 3 i used 5.

I wish you could set sensitivity per weapon class.

IE) Sniper I would have 2, Shotgun/Sword 10, everything else 4 or 5.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

I use 7-9


I use to have it on 3. No clue how I survived.

I play default. I had a friend who always played with really high sensitivity, and whenever I was over at his house I found playing with his settings absolutely impossible.

I have, however, become addicted to Halo's control set, to the point where I use "recon" in reach and "tactical" in MW3. Because I can't track targets if I have to hold X to use my jetpack, and I don't like having to remove my thumb from the stick to crouch.

I have WAY better aim with slower sensitivities. I don't have any troubles with turning around and such either so It works for me.

"Best" as in "most recommend" would be 3-5.

I've played on 2 since the beginning, thats what I'm used to so thats what I use.

There really isn't a "best" sensitivity; it's all a matter of preference, really. Personally, I play on a sensitivity of 7, but that's because I prefer a higher sensitivity.

I guess when I made this thread I didn't put much thought into the poll question, But what I meant by "Best Sensitivity" was what do you use/what do you THINK is the best to use.

Looks like most of you use 3-4, When I use it, it takes forever to turn around when someone is behind me, I guess most of you just jump backwards and ninja them but I cant ever pull that off

But Ive been going down a sensitivity every few days, Started at 7 now Im at 5 and Im good with that

I prefer to use ten sensitivity. But I believe sensitivity settings are merely preference; a certain number doesn't mean you're a better or worse player.

There's always room for you, If you want to be my friend.

I play on 5.
