Alright, so I’ve been trying to get my aim in Apex Legends to feel just like it does in CS:GO. You know, that crisp, familiar feeling. It’s been a bit of a journey, let me tell you.
First off, I hopped online to see what the deal was with sensitivity settings between the two games. Turns out, it’s not a one-to-one thing. You can’t just copy your CS:GO sensitivity over to Apex and call it a day. Nope, it’s more complicated than that.
I found out that a lot of folks use a simple formula to convert their CS:GO sens to Apex. Basically, you take your CS:GO sensitivity and divide it by 3.18181818. Sounds weird, right? But I gave it a shot. My CS:GO sens was at 2, so I did the math and got around 0.63 in Apex.
- Tried the formula: CS:GO sens / 3.18181818 = Apex sens
- My CS:GO sens: 2
- Initial Apex sens: 0.63
So, I plugged 0.63 into Apex and jumped into the firing range. It felt… off. Way too slow. I was dragging my mouse all over the place just to turn around. Not good.
Then I started tinkering. I bumped it up a little, then a little more. Played a few games, went back to the firing range, adjusted again. It was a whole process of trial and error. I mean, a real pain. I spent hours just running around, shooting at dummies, trying to find that sweet spot.
Eventually, I landed on a sensitivity of around 1.2. Double what the formula gave me! But you know what? It felt way closer to my CS:GO aim. I was tracking better, hitting more shots, and it just felt more natural, more comfortable.
Conclusion Time
So, what did I learn from all this? Well, first, those online calculators and formulas are just a starting point. Don’t just use the formula and forget about it. You gotta fine-tune it to your own preferences. Second, be prepared to spend some time experimenting. It’s not gonna be perfect right away. And finally, don’t be afraid to deviate from the “recommended” settings. Your mouse, your grip, your playstyle – it all factors in. Just keep tweaking until it feels right for YOU.
It was a bit of a hassle, but hey, now my aim in Apex feels pretty darn good. Worth it!
