Different sensitivity for different classes?

This topic came to my mind recently. Some say it's better to have one sensitivity setting for all classes, the other say it's fine using lower sensitivity when playing Scout or Sniper and higher one when playing Soldier or Demo for example. But what if you're playing Soldier with Shotgun?

Just wanted to hear people's opinions on this.

Well, I have some configs that allow different sensitivities for projectiles vs hit-scan weapons. It definitely takes some getting used to, but the difference is usually only like 2 1/2- 3 inches per 360 between the weapon types. Adjusting from shotgun to rockets is noticeable, but I've gotten so used to it, it's no bother. I personally feel having the different sens helps with my snap shots vs tracking, if it was the same sense for both weapons i'd have a harder time with either or.

It's easier to track with a low sens; it's easier to rocket jump/do flick shots with a high one.

I'm gonna let you in on the secret, the TRUE sensitivity is π*5 to the power of two / 3.14 cm

11 in/360 is the best you can do it all

assuming you aim with your elbow and wrist instead of just wrist

I'm actually only using my wrist to aim. Got used to this after playing with a very limited space for a mousepad and thus a high sensitivity for a very long time.

I find it impossible to play soldier on a sensitivity above 4 inches. Yet I find it impossible to play scout on 3.7 inches like i do on soldier. So I play with almost double for scout and sniper. It takes getting used to but I like it.

I use a 0.75 ingame sens for hitscan and 2.1 for projectile.

For soldier I use a different sens when using shotgun from rockets and melee (1 ingame sens for shotty and 2.1 for rockets).

For offclasses I use whatever sens I was last on (eg if I switch from scout to engi I will have a 1 sens but if I switch from soldier to engi I will have a 2.1 sens).

I also have my c key bound to switch between sensitivities in case I want a lower or higher sens for some reason (eg if I am trying to line up an amby hs I will go to a lower sens then shoot and go back).

Just do whatever works for you, no matter how complicated or how simple it is. I only have a bunch of changing sensitivities because I constantly found myself wanting a higher/lower sens. If you can play all classes on the same sens then don't switch for no reason.
