For some reason I have always been bad at aiming in FPS/TPS games with a mouse. I think mouse is much better than a controller, but I don't know why, I can't get it right.
I've been bad at it for as long as I can remember, but a particularly recent egregious example is Overwatch. Had an encounter today where I was playing Soldier 76 and there was a Hanzo right in front of me that I was shooting at and barely hit any shots on him. He was jumping around, and I chased this guy for a good 30 seconds and finally shot him when I backed him into a corner, and he almost killed me. I've tried modifying sensitivity, I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.
Is there some fundamental thing I am doing wrong aiming with a mouse? I used to be really into TF2 back in the day, and then I was still bad at it, but I somehow got to where my aim was somewhat passable then. I also have trouble sometimes clicking things in Dota 2 for instance, even though that isn't really the same thing. I feel like my biggest problems are things up close to me, and sniping. Generally any smaller twitch movements I cannot do for some reason.
For some extra information: My mouse is a Logitech G700 (I use this in wired mode). The DPI is set on 1200 with 1000 reports per second polling rate.
Does anyone else have a similar problem and suggestions on how to overcome it?
