Halo 5 - My New Sens! (New Meta)

[@francesco1998]

I didn't even know you could change the vertical and horizontal, holy shit!!

[@sirrpsychosxxy2016]

that 2 sens and 5 accel changed my freaking life! I'll try this too!

[@KonginDB]

How did it go?

[@rileygshep7606]

I play on 4 sens 3 acceleration

[@Whhis]

Started h5 with 3 sens 3 accel Went to 3 vert 1 horizontal 4 look accel when they gave the option to change both got champ with that. Then went 3-1-5 for last couple months and that was top. Tried out your 4-1-5 when you first posted this video and have 60 percent acc in the hcs playlist in 200 games played. Shit is crispy.

[@IvenSkateboarding]

Carson omg we have similar sens I play 1 horizontal 3vertical 5 accel 0 dead zones. I use to play 2 sens 5 accel 0 deadzones but changed it up a bit to hit headshots easier laolaaoorlaolol

[@deviance7833]

I really don't know what sens to play on or even where to start with editing the settings. Sometimes my shot feels really awkward and sometimes it feels amazing. I'm not sure what to do

[@jackcolson4745]

5 basic sens 2 accel was a good point for me. (Remember, the basic sensitivity has the numerical value of the vertical axis always twice the value of the horizontal axis)

[@svo4459]

I use 4 sensitivity and 1 acceleration, just got used to it in Reach and never went back. However, it really kicks in when aim assist is reduced after shields break, and I find it difficult to land that 5th shot in high level play without warming up for an hour or two.

[@andrewlewis8099]

I have been sweating it out in high diamond low onyx with 2.5 vertical 3.5 horizontal and 3 accel. I used to play 5 accel and remembered loving loving it but i was also on 4 sens so I could track well and i was flick shooting too much. but now after watching your videos for awhile i see what you mean about those mid-long range gun fights with the magnum and I am going to try what you are playing as an see what happens. I love your stuff man, it's really helping me improve my game, maybe I'll see you on the battlefield sometime :D

[@busydadrs5608]

Also worth noting higher sensitivities are the most affected by the cpu reticle drag issues this game suffers from. Back in H3 Ola would run octagon and big team at 10 sens to warm up and stop pegging than switch back down to 3/4 when scrimming. This is less affective in H5 since 60% of the time the reticle will go less than it's supposed to and you'll probably just start head-casing, but keep that in mind for H6 in case that games aiming isn't broken.

[@_vez]

I play 3,5 4,2 I have no idea about my sense, I had sensitive crisis since I got the game back in November this year

[@charliezen9121]

IVEZ0Kk _insane Hammer Studioz_ Same, I have a crisis every time I play now. It ranges from 4-6 sens and 1/2 accel. And most of the time it depends on how I feel. I can't find the sweet spot anymore.

[@chasermcchaser1668]

Same here... Before the last update i had it were i felt solid, i was plat 3 heading to plat 4 in doubles... Did the update and its been downhill. Idk what the fuck to do. Im gold 4 now. I couldnt hit the side of a building if it stopped moving.

[@_vez]

I used 4 since H3 but in halo 5 I haven't find my mist comfortable sens it sucks man

[@nickdecain1808]

i change ny sensi all game depending how im playing and normally its bc im missing my shots and then i grab a br and im fine

[@benjamindempsey34]

Well that's because the BR aims for you.

[@slugger4073]

I've been running 3 sens with 5 aim accel and it's felt great. I used to run 4 sens with 2 accel, but I found that just running a lower sensitivity with maxed out aim accel has worked better than trying to run a higher sensitivity and having to deal with my aim speeding up. I thought about switching to a 1 to 1 ratio for horizontal and vertical to make it more consistent, but I feel like it would throw me off a lot until I got used to it, and I'm finally starting to improve. Looking forward to the no AR starts. Never considered making a sens change due to the meta before. Great video!

[@themiime5017]

love your videos man, best part of the day is when you upload... keep it up, I play 4 sens and 4 accel

[@cwilczewski23]

I only sweat in FFA but I'm super excited for the new settings. I play 2.5 vertical 3.5 horizontal and 5 acceleration. I have it "low" because I find it easier to control autos like that. With the new meta I think I'll try out 3 vertical, 6 horizontal and only play out to a shorter distance with auto pickups.

[@mooreso1981]

I hold you, Proximity aka Cole, personally responsible for the removal of the AR from all of Halo forever

[@UnknwnMonster]

As a competitive sweaty player I play 4 sensitivity 3 acceleration. Inner dead zone 4 and outer dead zone 0

[@jackcolson4745]

On h5 I have 5(2.5 horizontal, 5 vertical) sens, 2 accel for multiplayer and 10 horizontal, 10 vertical, 4 accel for campaign. My settings are the same for mcc, but I have 10/10 sens, 4 accel for both multiplayer and campaign because of the radial and axial inner deadzones in mcc. I find that it's much closer to a "zero inner deadzone" than Halo 5's 0\0% because you can adjust the different types of the inner deadzone like radial and axial(which I have set to 1% radial, 0% axial). This makes it much easier to control because it's much more responsive than h5.

[@elikilgore6458]

I bumped it up from 2 to 3, and sometimes it feels good, other times it feels like my sticks have no weight to them and I can't aim for shit.

[@jrwarbs5097]

I currently use the same as you did ( 2 sens 5 accel) but I played the new HCS summer preview this morning and I was struggling so I was gonna change, will try this cause it sounds good :) awesome video dude

[@dandogamer]

Been rocking 3.5 - 3.5, i find its great at up close fights and mid range but at long ranges I tend to struggle unless i have a carbine. But my play style for this game has always been more of a bruiser type, flying at people with my assault rifle out killing people caught with their magnum out. Definitely going to have to adapt to the new meta as my pistol shot is not as good as other onyx players out there

[@ForeverDiegooo]

I changed my settings last night actually. I felt the same way about the 2 5 sens, but returned to 4 2. Just feel turning is hard at 2 5. And looking up as you stated .

[@Gamewithstyle]

I play pretty competitively but I just turned my overall sense up to 5 at launch. I need to play around with the more custom settings. I highly customized in Overwatch and it seemed to help, so I'm sure it could help out my halo shot

[@taylor_bowlin]

I love this. I hate when I am in games with bad kids who just spam ARs and crouch around.

[@Nobody-fb7ni]

I play on custom sens with 1.5 h and 2.5 v. I have 1 acceleration. It works fine my shot is at its best it has ever been and I find it pretty balanced so don't think I'll need to change.

[@calebprice7896]

I've always liked around 4, but I bump the vertical to 4-4.5 (depends on how I feel) and then horizontal to 1.5. With an acceleration of 5. However for shotty snipes I keep a sense of 7 for quick scoping or not. it helps to have a high sens with a sniper for me. But for competitive play I use the former

[@lyecon2771]

I play 3-vert, 3-horz, 2-accel. Great vids man, keep em up

[@busydadrs5608]

Been playing 2 - 4.5 - 4 since the sense update. It was either Victory, Penguin or Stellur who recommended I bump up the vertical, but I don't remember who. Also, you're live comm skills are impressive, but it definitely makes you play like dirt. You should just fake live comms like I used to back in 2010 when I didn't have any way to record audio whilst screen capturing. ;)

[@thatboy_dorian7135]

+Proximitty what about your deadzones?or do u not use them?

[@WeekendGamingNerds]

I used to play like 4 sens 2 accel until I started watching you more and decided to try out the 2 sens 5 accel and that's what I've been running for the last 3 seasons. Might adjust my vert a little bit depending on how I feel.

[@xSATOSHIDAVOx]

I have done exactly the same as you, except now I have recently changed to 1.5H 3.5V 5A. I still hit most shots but I just wanted to make the horizontal turns in close combat quicker and like proximitty said a higher V helps get the magnum up quicker, which I really have noticed.

[@WeekendGamingNerds]

I've actually been thinking about trying Ninja's sense. He runs 2.5H 4V 3A. I don't know if I'll like it because I've really gotten used to the Acceleration

[@gorfiend7050]

Was playing on 6,6,5. Accuracy was shot so I moved down to 3,5,3 which feels pretty good too me.

[@Cognoscent.]

For some reason I play on 7 horizontal, 6 vertical, 3 accel, & 0 for both dead zones. I don't think I'll change the sens coming from all the past Halos I would play on 10 sens, since H5 has lower aim assists on certain weapons but high bullet magnitude.

[@Avuls]

I use 2 5, and I've had the same problem where I can't quite aim up or down quick enough. This helps Cole thanks :)

[@jasonfan7071]

i used to play 1 horizontal 4 vertical with 4 accel. that was perfect until i came back from holiday and i realised it was too slow for me to no scope so now i play a 2.5 horizontal, 4 vertical and a 4 accel. seems prety perfect for me

[@TidyCrawdad-im4gn]

I play 3 and 5 look acceleration. I find my Br in so good with me used to rarely get perfs to now getting at least 1-2 per game with the occasional perf reversal. Damn it feels good when you get a perf reversal

[@mtfam6]

Proximity... What settings do you use on the Elite Controller > As in Aggressive .... smooth ect.. Mike

[@starsandstripe7123]

I play on default, (mostly because im to dumb to change it.)

[@Quasar_MB]

I actually also just changed my sens to funnily enough exactly what you are rocking in the video. My accuracy seems to have gone up percentage wise a lot. I'm averaging much higher accuracy than I used to, but also for some reason getting less perfect kills. Guess I just need to continue practicing with it

[@AMVsGalore]

I play on sens 4, with 3 acceleration.

[@charliezen9121]

I used to have 2 horizontal and 2.5 vertical. Now I am fucked and I can't find the perfect spot.

[@kourt2469]

I actually change my sens depending on the lag. If the connection is great I play on 4 sense 5 acceleration and I usually hit about 60-70 % accuracy. If it's typical garbage connection I drop down to 2 sens 5 acc because it doesn't register my bullets as well so I have to be extra precise.

[@collinjahns5213]

Does your sensitivity change if you play on a different size screen?

[@davidyergensen4509]

Collin Jahns - good question, I wonder about that too.

[@JollyWolfout]

its gonna be so hard for me to switch back to the vertical sens being twice the horizontal, I've been playing over watch for the past while and the way aiming works is so different

[@noemathieu943]

As an elite controller player, I use 5 with everything, I not a pro player but I think that it's a pretty good sens

[@its_maxbro]

I've been struggling recently to find something that feels right. The best I've got is 3 sense 2 accell. I'm gonna try the lower sense though with more accell! Let's see if that feels right!

[@its_maxbro]

Update: Been struggling with my shot, and even though my game strat is alright I wasn't winning 1 on 1 pistol battles.... well I changed my settings to 2 sense 4 accell and just ranked in the HCS summer preview at Plat 6. I'm sooooo hyped on the no AR playlist dudes. It makes winning that battle that you don't have the first shot on much much more skill based.

[@ianmccallum5690]

yoo weirdly looking forward to mag only after being spooked by the change, I was playing some MCC and it reeaaally put the AR into perspective. Still would like for it to be a quick fix before nerfing in all modes rather than the end result. feel like that's fair. Still figuring out my new sens, but I like tuning and testing

[@BilalAhmed5]

I play on 10 sens 2 accel, I feel like this is perfect for me because I get into a lot of close range battles and it allows me to track my opponent better.

[@onenonlysnorlax8090]

I play 3, 4. Feels really good. But I always choke when it comes to face to face. By that I mean like a Spartans arm reach. But that's usually when I just whip out the AR because I miss so many pistol shots.

[@ItzCr0ssMan]

I play with 5 sens and 3 acceleration. Don´t really feel like I need a change at this point, but I haven´t played that much no AR customs yet so my opinion might change.

[@seanthenation8109]

Interesting you say that, I run a 2/4 setting and felt the same about vertical movement being slower for up close. I've been trying a 1.5 vertical and the same 2 horizontal

[@kaidenpatterson3793]

Bro thanks your sensitivity rock thanks bro really helped

[@tierstobrotv3634]

I play on an absurd sens, 6.5, 4.5, 4 accel because I'm mainly a casual player getting Platinum, and low Diamond if I REALLY sweat my face off, and I like to get trick ninjas and stuff that require a high sens. But I DO want to try and get better overall and I think my current sens will hinder my ability to increase my overall skill, with me choking the EASIEST 5 shots & cleanups because I'm whipping with the magnum. I think I'll try this sens on my main sweaty account from now on. I would love to hit Onyx before the end of the year. Do you think this is a good idea going from a clip hunting sens right to the one the magnum god is using? I feel like it would be a shock for me for at least 3-4 days or even a week of playing...

[@AndyBVids]

I play 9,9 accel 4 I purposefully get up in people's faces to make them uncomfy on low sense and I'm excited to see what me and my magnum can do up close in new settings! I played 10 for ages but 9 just feels like the limit of where I can aim without scuffing it :P I'm onyx in FFA btw!

[@alphachief1485]

This is just funny you are playing on my sens now lol only thing was that was my sens for last 3 months and it feels good for magnums

[@justagoose7741]

I play at 5.5, 6.5, 1 acceleration and I think both of my outer dead zones are 6 but I don't really understand how they work. honestly I think those settings are great and for the last weeks mybaccurscy has been in the high 50s to low 70s and a lot more perfects than I used to have.

[@ksg4687]

I play on 3-3. Played custom games and without autos my sense feels slow for the close range fights I used to use my AR in. Might try to change it up although I'm not sure what I should change exactly

[@Goldenguy330]

I just stuck with the default sens, never saw a reason to change it so I just adapted to it when I started playing.

[@dustinbaconflipper]

I've been playing 3 send 5 accel, and for a while it was perfect until recently; just like you I wasn't able to 5 people and most of the time took all 8 shots. Never thought to adjust the vertical, might bump it up .

[@OriginalCouber]

I play 4/4. Haven't touched the horizontal/vertic. Didn't know you could until this video..

[@Gyro_HCS]

it feels wierd, halo without an AR and for once I have actually moved over to overwatch should i give halo another chance?

[@Reclaimer]

We nice boi

[@misterbear38]

I play on 1 and 5 works pretty great for me but loving your content

[@misterbear38]

1 sensitivity and 5 acceleration

[@PunkPantha]

I keep my sens and accel at 2n2 and that seems to work for me. Its slow but meh. I'm not a really skilled player anyhow, I feel like I'm improving though. My map movement is improving, I just need to get my shot more consistent. If I put the time in I bet I could be pretty good, but I have anxieties in pvp and have to work myself into a game and only end up playing like a couple times a week, but when I do play for a few matches in a row, my shot and movement really start to groove. Hopefully I can overcome the jitters. Its just a game, I know, but for some reason its a bit nerve racking for me.

[@PunkPantha]

If I ever became pro I would name myself Hulk so when people tried to throw me off I could say "that's my secret, I'm always on tilt" lol.

[@blubb3rnugg3t54]

I use 1.5 horizontal and 2 vertical with 5 acceleration. I might change the vertical maybe to 3 because I feel the same way with my vertical sometimes.

[@ericdimestria6710]

I play 2, 2, 5 and noticed the same thing, can't get the reticle up fast enough. Might try the 1,4,5

[@InternetPancake]

Since I play Infection on a regular basis, I need to get sweaty so I can be as tryhard as possible. So I use Sensitivity 10, Default Layout. *MAXIMUM SWEATINESS ACTIVATED*

[@tiberiustheweaponsmaster4621]

I used to use a 1 sense, 5 accel and I'd laser people across the map quite easily however this was pretty bad at close-midish range were a simple z-strafe could completely throw me off. Currently running a 4 sense, 2 accel and can handle most situations, still stuck in diamond 6 hell tho.

[@callumspiller4900]

I change my sens all the time which is probably a dumb idea; I've been playing at around 10 for a while but have recently dropped down to 4 | 2 and am trying to settle on that. I would use 1 horizontal like you but I tend to get frustrated at not being able to turn on people

[@ForzaDerpGuy]

I use 5 sen with 4 acceleration but I think it not the best and can use some changing. But thanks to you I think i'm going to try changing my vertical sen to get those last head shot that I miss too much.🙂

[@euan2888]

I play on sensce 3 and acceleration 3

[@okami_sk7200]

Ice Block i'm so confused reading this

[@euan2888]

Vextuzy you should be😶😶😶😶😶😶

[@nofateeric2610]

sensce

[@jackcolson4745]

May I remind you, (though should have already figured out) that's the default

[@xX8Lampard8Xx]

I play on bumper jumper, on elite controller with two paddles for sprint and thrust. My sensitivity is 5, 2, inner 5% outer dead zone 0%. I am SR148 almost 149, and it stil feels weird. I am trying for 18 months to get it perfect but it's just weird in Halo 5. Maybe it's just me, but it feels weird to aim, especially to hit 5th shot after thrusting. Btw. I am playing solo most of the time and i am platinum 5-6 in most playlists(35.000 kills/30.000 deaths). But aim is sooo weird.

[@lifttillidie]

I usually never comment but I also play 2/5 and have for months but had the same problem with vertical sense. I noticed it the most on places like plaza looking from orange down to prius.

[@AaeroIAm]

Onyx/Champ here and I play 2.5x, 2.5y, 3 accel. I can't play mismatching aim, Idk man. This sens feels good when I'm on a good server, but that's rare unfortunately. The heavy aim is so bad most of the time.

[@tonyg8637]

Inspired by your 2-2 and 5. I started with that but had to bump it up to 2.5-2.5 and 5

[@ninjan1nja]

My sensitivity is: 7(sens.) 5(accl.) I don't think it's going to change because of the new meta. Tbh I don't care about the new competitive meta is. All I want from 343i, is the removal of MMR. Because of this, I can't get out of the high Platinum tier.

[@connor1782]

Where do you stream?

[@tyleradames4084]

When is the no AR update coming out

[@hunterwaddell8401]

4 2 - Sweaty onyx 2000

[@HauntedxMemory]

I play way too low sense but never get the right sense it's pissing me off

[@eiao99]

I've been using the same sensitivity (3) since I started playing Halo, I don't know if that's good or bad.

[@Eliezer4433]

2 sens, 5 acc, I also feel like its hard to get the final shot when trying to whip it up. might have to increase the vertical slightly as well

[@MondoBattlefield]

4 sens 5 Accel 0 deadzones inner and outer seems pretty good

[@brandonaguilar1498]

3,3 since the start of the game then last week bumped it to 3,4 just to turn around a little faster

[@firesidetreats]

Are the new competitive settings gonna be in proving grounds?

[@tyroilgypsum-billims1330]

JDM i believe so yes

[@firesidetreats]

tyroil gypsum-billims Aww hell yeah

[@logansimoni2054]

I play 4 sens 3 act plays great for competitive 1800 onyx plus

[@commanderc80]

I currently don't Know what I Play on but have a problem maintaining my aim on the head an would like to change to yours.

[@zakkpopowich3647]

I'm playing 2,2,5 but probably going to play around with vertical like you did

[@claudiusboasman3681]

Last sens set up I used was 2 sens 3 accel 0 in 12 out.

[@heyshea4]

I play on 2 sens and 2 aim accel. I am really inflexible with it. will not change. I wish I could change just the scope sensitivity on the sniper, because I am better with it a little faster. Been bouncing in and out of Diamond 6 and Onyx 1500. Almost all solo queue.

[@sheldonkali2124]

I'm like platinum 2 and I play on 3 sens 4 acceleration but I am considering changing it, just because I can be so slow upclose sometimes, so I'll probs switch to like 4-4 or something like that, idk yet

[@DJDonkeytron]

1-3-4 on Helljumper FTW

[@chasermcchaser1668]

"oh i hate the ar" Pulls out ar and loses. lol.

[@ROFLgator1]

I play 4 - 4 - 5 acceleration. im gonna need to reduce to 3 - 3 - 4 since my shot has been off a bit lately

[@nikeflores5523]

I play on 3 sens 3 accel which is perfect for me but I feel like everyone has sens crisis. am I the only one with deadzones crisis

[@gautamsharma3363]

Proximitty - What about your deadzones?

[@SseriousGgamer3]

Horizontal is in the Z axis right

[@frostdre3634]

Is it better playing with no vibration?

[@xxxdaddyphillxxx9038]

Frost Dre it depends on personal preference, I heard it's better without by vibration but sometimes I keep it on to have a small indication my headshot worked.

[@PunkPantha]

I recently started playing without it and I feel like I've improved. Vibration didn't bother me while shooting but it did affect me while being shot at. I feel like it helps in a gunfight and helps you ignore the fact you're down a shot and just helps alleviate the stress of being shot at altogether. I tried it awhile back and didn't like it because I got melted by a light rifle before I knew I was being shot at because I didn't have the vibration as a reaction cue. I was a noob back then though and couldn't really understand why vibe would help or not, I just tried turning it off because that's what the pros did. Now I have the knowledge to be able to tell how it helps me personally. You have to experiment for yourself. I switched to bumper jumper when I started playing H5 because thats what everyone else did and once I got used to it I could tell I improved so I stayed with it. Actually, I ended up going with helljumper because that worked for me more than bumper. If I had gotten worse, or wasn't comfortable, I'd switch back to the old layout or try something different that works for me. You have to find your personal niches and experiment. No setting will magically help your gameplay, you just have to find what you're best/most comfortable with.

[@JahsehRelight]

It's klyandchppy homie.

[@GrumpyNFluffy]

3 with 5 accel. going strong!

[@vastrenegade299]

SlySensuality same here

[@GrumpyNFluffy]

Noice

[@JazieChristine]

I personally feel like I have a solid magnum shot, I'm new to the competitive scene but I play sweaty H5 at 4 sensitivity 3 acceleration now ☺ used to be 5 acceleration but I found snapshots a lot easier at 4 sens for me personally

[@CrazyEy3dLuke]

Fake thumbnail. No flashlight

[@Crackproof]

fuck your woke AF

[@skyrimlegend1422]

I copied your older sens and I saw huge improvement. I personally see no point in changing the 2 sens and 5 accelerate. Maybe that's just me lol

[@SagarPatel-ef8rf]

I play on sensitivity 7 and default acceleration. I think ill be fine with what my sens is at right now.

[@thatboy_dorian7135]

what about deadzones?

[@Crackproof]

Dorian K Only if your sticks drifts
