I use a Logitech MX518 and I use the following settings:

Throttle down to 400 dpi, for sniping.

Throttle to 800 dpi for knifing.

Throttle to 1200 dpi for any other kit and their weapon.

Throttle to 1600 dpi for using tanks, jets, and APC's.

I tend to miss maybe 1 out of 4 shots using my sniper dpi setting.

Alpha as fuck.

What he said

I'll use the lowest sensitivity for sniping, medium for infantry pounding or gunner in a plane/chopper (Laser/Tv guides) and use the highest in APC, Tanks, and piloting a chopper.

I get a lot of people question me if I use a joystick when I fly a chopper since I can do the turns so much better than a normal sensitivity user.

Actually don't you miss only about four shots in ten... that is what ~60% accuracy for the sniper rifle means doesn't it?

DPI stands for Dots Per Inch, differences in this change the responsiveness of the mouse: e.g. small movement of hand, large movement of cursor - for swinging a turret; larger movement of hand, small movement of cursor - for accuracy during sniping.

Some mice allow you to change the sensitivity on the fly, for others it's fixed (most mice).

The G5 has an adjustable DPI setting with an LED readout on the mouse body and two buttons that allow you to adjust the DPI on the fly. This allows you to toggle between up to five different DPI settings that you can set in the SetPoint software which comes with the mouse.

wow ckap. So everyone has a G5?

If you want your mouses DPI, the best way to tell is by finding the manufacturers specs.

BF2S Forums What do the snipers here have their mouse DPI at?
