Okay, guys, let’s talk about how I messed around and finally got my Overwatch sens right for THE FINALS.
So, I’ve been grinding THE FINALS lately, and my aim was, well, trash. I’m coming from Overwatch, where I had my sensitivity dialed in perfectly. But in THE FINALS, everything felt off. I was overshooting, undershooting, basically missing everything that wasn’t the broad side of a barn.
First, I tried just eyeballing it. You know, moving my mouse around, trying to get that “feel” back. Yeah, that didn’t work. Not even close. I spent hours in the practice range, just whiffing shots like a total noob.
Then, I remembered those sensitivity converter things online. You punch in your Overwatch sens, and it spits out what it should be in THE FINALS. Sounds easy, right? Nope. I tried a few different ones, and they all gave me different numbers. One had me at, like, 2 sensitivity, another was up at 8. My head was spinning.
So, I went back to basics. I started with some advice I saw online – 800 DPI on my mouse and around 5 in-game sensitivity. That’s an eDPI of 4000, apparently. It felt a little better, but still not quite there.
- Start with 800 DPI and 5 in-game sensitivity.
- Test in the practice range, paying attention to tracking and flicking.
- Make small adjustments up or down based on whether I was overshooting or undershooting.
- Repeat until I found a sensitivity that felt comfortable for both tracking and flicking.
- Jump into some real games to see how it felt under pressure.
My Testing Steps:
I spent a good chunk of time just tweaking that sensitivity, going up and down by tiny amounts. I’d track a moving target, then try to flick to another one. If I overshot, I’d lower it a bit. If I undershot, I’d raise it. It was a slow, painful process, but I started to see some improvement.
Finally, after what felt like forever, I landed on a sensitivity that felt pretty good. It wasn’t exactly the same as my Overwatch sens, but it was close enough. I was actually hitting shots consistently, and my K/D ratio started to look a little less embarrassing.
So, what’s the takeaway here? Well, first off, those online sensitivity converters are a mixed bag. They might give you a starting point, but they’re not a one-size-fits-all solution. Second, finding the right sensitivity is a personal thing. It takes time, patience, and a whole lot of trial and error. But trust me, it’s worth it. Once you get it dialed in, it makes a world of difference in your gameplay.
Don’t be afraid to experiment, guys. Start with a general recommendation, then tweak it until it feels right for you. And don’t get discouraged if it takes a while. Just keep practicing, keep adjusting, and eventually, you’ll find that sweet spot.
