Mouse settings and resolution

LOL, im so shit in this, I always miss my fuel by a pixel and thats how i always die. But i want to ask the question to you guys; What sensitivity do you have your mouse on, and what is the resolution you use to play?

I've never messed with mouse settings whatever has been default on my last 10 cpu's, not sure about bf but it seems like in tankpit id have to put the cursor a pixel below where i wanted to land.

You obviously dont want the settings to be to fast because their is no need considering most the time you are making very small mouse movements so a slower setting will allow for more accuracy. I think its all about feel and preference.

I have heard that at certain screen size settings the game can glitch making you land a pixel off. Someone told me that at 130% game screen size you can click the fuel and end up a pixel off. Personally I don't believe that at all. This game is pixel for pixel and you could easily click a pixel off trying to land on that fuel. To stay safe keep your screen sizes in even increments like 150% or 200%.

I play with 150% screen size and I always have my mouse on a very low sensitivity (all the time, not just for tp). I find if I have high mouse sensitivity, I'm always overshooting simple clicks, even with just surfing the web. I like having low sensitivity personally. Low sensitivity = more accuracy and for me, it doesn't mean a slower reaction time.

Thanks guys, i lowered my mouse speed and i am playing at 150, and my gameplay improved as a result, getting the fuels on point most times now :D

200%, you'll never miss a fuel.

I play on a netbook so 150 is as large as i can play without it being hard to fit it in, but i will take that into consideration for my desktop at home. Just play a bit in uni accomodation these days

I play on maximum windows mouse sensitivity and a 5600dpi mouse. A standard is 800, for reference. I do have acceleration turned on though, so it's slower for small movements. It's excellent for gaming, but not so much very long range sniping/TankPit.
