Aim Sensitivity Transfer: Keep Control Consistent Across Games
Consistency is performance. If every game has a different feel, you waste time re-learning control. Transfer your baseline sensitivity and only adjust after timing is stable.
Simple Transfer Method
- Lock stable DPI (mouse) or stable deadzone/curve (controller).
- Pick one reference game as your baseline.
- Match turning distance in a controlled test (same move, same result).
- Only after that, fine-tune for that game’s aim model.
Two Rules That Prevent Chaos
- Don’t tune sensitivity while frametimes are unstable.
- Don’t change multiple variables in one session.
Rule: transfer baseline first, then tune preference second.
