So there's no keyboard sensitivity adjustment in BF2!?!?!

Were it mostly effects my game play is driving tanks/APC and flying the Helicopter.

Any suggestions?

How is it affecting you exactly? What problem does it cause?

Well, I don't think that a keyboard could have sensitivity adjustment? Thats only for mice, joysticks, etc. right?

Is the problems you are having relating to your shooting? or is it movement across the battlefield?

If its the second, there's nothing you can do, whenever you press a button to turn, the wheels of the vehicle go full lock (can turn no more), and thats the maximum you can turn. If thats your problem, tough luck.

Mouse sensitivity adjustments are available in the options menu, controls, vehicles.

Hope this helps.

Some keyboards have analogue inputs from the keys I believe: press hard, accelerate more etc.

My keyboard is so sensitive, when I slightly hit it when dying in BF2, it starts packing its stuff, weeping.

I need around tree fiddy.

Maybe I've been smoking too much weed, but didn't BF:Vietnam have a Keyboard sensitivity adjustment!?!
Could have sworn I've seen it before!

Well, when I press 'A' or 'D' to turn the tank/APC/Helicopter, it's quite slow. Slower than I'd like. Could have sworn that BF:Vietnam had Key Sensitivity adjustment!?!

There are pitch and yaw adjustments in the helicopter controls setup. Is this what you are looking for?

The problem is that the tanks/APC/Helicopters turn too slow when I press 'A' or 'D'.

No. It's the adjustment the controls how fast vehicles turn left or right.

I don't know what to tell you. I have never heard of an actual adjustment like this in BF2.

EA coded it so it turns at a certain speed. Sorry man.

I think that's a function of the game and to be able to alter the speed at which you could present your front armour to an enemy who is behind you would be considered a hack.

Have you ever played BF1942 or BF:Vietnam? I thought both of them had it. If so, then I guess EA thought best to remove it from BF2!?

mmm time to flame some noobs

You can't have "keyboard sensativity", a keyboard is binary either you hit the damn key or you didn't. Unless you have some sort of uber gaming keyboard I've never heard of then you don't have pressure sensative keys and there would be no way to "increase their sensavitity".

From your (many) subsequent posts it seems you want your vehicles to turn faster? I don't think that there is a way to do that, and I sure as hell hope it's not. It certainly wouldn't be fair if your tank, helicopter, or jet turns faster than their tank, helicopter, or jet.

Yeah, a keyboard is a binary device, but your little mind forget another parameter......TIME.
The longer you keep the key pressed, the faster the vehicle would turn in BF:V.

noob minded mistake

a key on the keyboard can only be on or off. therefore there is no sensityvity adjustment

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'.

Yes there was in BF:Vietnam. See my post and screenshot above.

No I haven't played BF:1942 or BF:V, BF2 is my first FPS since Quake. I can't imagine what the keyboard sensitivity settings in those games did, but I still reckon being able to turn quicker than someone else and present a more survivable front to someone would be considered an unfair advantage and EA/DICE couldn't possibly have something unbalanced in BF2 (unless of course enough people whine about it that they did something about it, although doing something about it would probably be to nerf AF so it didn't matter if you were vulnerable to them).

Cheers,

Doc

It doesn't matter what BF:V listed (I promise, it doesn't). A keyboard is either active/inactive, on/off, or however you want to define it. There is no way for the computer, or the game, to know that you pressed the key harder or softer, and stricly speaking, that's what the term sensitivity implies. EA or whoever can call it whatever they want, but it is certainly not keyboard sensitivity.

Note that I'm not saying you're wrong, because BF:V did have a setting labeled as such, but they were wrong to call it that, and that's where the confusion lies. They could have called it turning speed, speed sensitivity, control input duration sensitivity or any number of other things and been more correct.

I guess the short answer, is there is nothing you can change in settings to make the tank turn faster. Even if you were using a joystick that can register the degree of movement you input, the thing can only turn so fast. For a tank, the best you can manage is to learn to use small changes in the terrain to help you turn and/or line up a shot a bit faster. It's not much, but it's all you've got. Notice how when you're going up hill it is harder to turn into the hill, but if you turn the other way it's a bit faster? That's what I'm talking about. You can get differences from even small lump in the terrain.

BF2S Forums No Keyboard Sensitivity Adjustment??
