<div class="IPBDescription">Is it on? or is there a command to do so if not?</div>So, ive been trying to figure out why i cant shoot worth garbage in NS2... on top of horrible lag(which i cant solve, just have to grin and bear it, my system is not up to snuff) i could never figure out why my mouse felt so different from other FPS... and at this point it seems like it would be mouse acceleration. So my question is, is it actually on(im assuming it is not) i think i do better with it on, and since theres no option to turn it on or off in game, is there a command to do so?

As I don't know what mouse acceleration is, I've no answer for your question :P

Amazing you have managed to dodge it, regardless it is how fast your mouse accerelates for example slow motion on mousepad less speed from mouse acc, higher faster movement. Any sane person would normally turn it off when playing fps games because it effects your aim usually in negatively (panics / reflex etc).
I dunno answer to OP but I'm sure someone someone can test it quickly by rolling mouse 1 length of mousepad fast and slow. Remember to set windows setting off aswell.
for ppl having problems make sure the driver settings for you mouse is in order. I force mouse acceleration using the logitech drivers, so maybe yours have jumped in to some other "game-mode" that have it enabled.
Or you have it on by default in windows and ns2 copied those settings.
lots of ppl play with mouse-acc on without knowing it, seeing as it is sometimes default in windows =)
That's sweet btw. At least id Tech 3 with RawInput is pure nirvana when it comes to mouse control. At least for me it's the very definition of how mouse should work on FPS games.
you sound p mad. maybe you should play a game that's actually finished instead of crying about an alpha game's bugs
Uh, no?
Just trying to keep the trash out.
You sound unhelpful and troll-ish, maybe you shouldn't reply in these forums?
Hope that logic helps.
Bug exploiting is lame.
So are you.
I haven't really been able to test it properly in NS2 due do lag and low fps but I sure hope it's set to off by default.

hello my name is revbads i play an alpha because it is a finished game that i will never get trolled in
And as far as the mouse accel goes.... i cant tell you why it works better for me. but without it i either massively overswing my gun at something far away, or underswing at something close. I guess I just am comfortable with how much and how fast i have to move it to get the job done...
And really.... 3 minutes?? happened multiple rounds.
Whatever, as long as you knock off that behavior, that's all I care about, this includes future exploiting.
having a good player base is important.
Yeah. That about sums it up.
Can I get a "hell yeah!"?

Not really, lots of pro Quake players use accel. It has advantages and disadvantages relative to no accel.
this.
I know of several "pro" players that use it and it is just down to preference.
it's another factor you have to think about but if you are used to it, it goes automatic.
I can't really see any disadvantage, besides getting used to it if you are already used to play with it off, but the advantage would be being able to turn faster, with less hand movement. You can even do a full turn in a single move (not sure why you would tho) and still have a
low mouse sensitivity that lets you snipe down corridors with accuracy.
in the end the difference is minimal, and makes no real impact on how well you play vs someone who use a different setting.
