How to translate Overwatch/kovaaks sens to Apex?


Recommended Posts

So, I've been reading a lot of posts (Skidushe's post twice) watching videos and other posts in the forum trying to learn and understand all this sensitivity calculations. I now understand better but still not quite sure if I'm getting the best results. I also chatted a little with Drimzi on Kovaaks discord but don't want to be bothering him that much you know.  Would guys give me some advice? 

I play a variety of FPS (PUBG, Apex, OW, R6, Splitgate, Black Squad, etc) My goal is to be sure I'm "exporting" my Kovaaks training gains into other games, say Apex. In Kovaaks I'm using Overwatch as base game, 103 FOV and 9 sens with 400 dpi ( Full HD 24.5 in monitor, windows default 6/11). I'm getting a lot better and following Aimer7's guide also feedback from discord fam as well.
Before knowing all this conversion techniques I used cm/360 measurement (38.4 cm) to set my sens between shooter games. Trying to match my ADS cm/360 in APEX to my Kovaaks/OW cm/360. How naive I was not even considering FOV's, scales, etc. Something was wrong with that method, sens was not feeling good so I started digging and here I am.  

After reading Skidushes post I tried Horizontal Monitor Distance 0% method first. The results I got was 3.23 hipfire and 1.0 for all the scopes. In game, the hipfire was faster but felt accurate in terms of monitor distance, got no problem to adapt to this speed. The scopes are all very slow and I have a hard time tracking my targets, since apex is quite heavy on tracking this is not working for me. Per Drimzi's advice I used Visuomotor method on his calculator but got the very same results I got from MMH0%. MMV0% give me virtually the same results as well.

So after doing some more research, found some people saying Viewspeed was the best method for gamers who use low sens as me, because MMH0% is good for the accuracy very close to de crosshair but hard on large flicks and tracking, make sens to me. Tried Viewspeed Vertical method for all conversion setups and got these results:

This felt way better in both hipfire and scopes, I was able to track a lot better with the scopes zoomed in. As I'm writing this post this are the settings used in game, problem is, now I feel they are a bit faster and my idea is to tweak them down a little to find a sweetspot and try them like this in other games to see how I do in reality. 

My only concern now is if I'm doing things right or on the contrary, messing all up and screwing everything up. Would it be better to try hipfire 360° conversion and viewspeed the scopes? Should I stick to the MMV0% and get used to that slowish feeling? Should I convert my OW sens to APEX ADS in the calculator instead MMV0%? 

I know I'm overthinking too much and maybe is irrelevant, but some guidance would be very appreciate it. Remember  My goal is to be sure I'm "exporting" my Kovaaks training gains into other games.

Thank you in advance 

Just to update this issue:
I stick to MMV0% although it feels slowish when using high zoom scopes its only a matter of getting used to it. Being sticking to this method and I do feel consistency across games (Apex, PUBG, OW, R6, Destiny 2, Splitgate) 
Important to mention that I'm trying to set very similar FOV's among the games to keep the consistency as well. Base game is OW FOV 103 400 dpi 9 in game sens

MMV0% is the best possible method since it scales on the focal length. However as you mentioned the issue comes into play for low sensitivity players since the scopes get too slow. What i would recommend is obviously raising the visual sensitivity, aka your overall sensitivity or your starting games sensitivity. Also just note that you can still have incredibly good tracking since tracking is close to the crosshair, what they say when they mean by it's bad for large flicks, they're talking about flicks at the very edge of the field of view (or monitor however you choose to define it) or outside of your field of view. However you can obviously improve over time and have better overall aim thanks to the fact that you're matching your sensitivity almost perfectly through every aim type on every game on every scoped weapon.

 

 

 

TLDR: raise your sensitivity on your main game and use mmv0%
