confusion on ingame sensitivity when changing DPI

[dpenra]

Recently I increased my DPI from 400 to 800, and i use this site for conversion for PUBG. Now, i am really confused.

Before i had 400 dpi and 56 sensitivity and my eDPI  is 56*400= 22,400

After changing from this site i got new sensitivity that is 40.9485, when i multiply with 800 DPI i am getting 32,758.8 eDPI

We can see that there is huge shift from my original eDPI . 

Is it safe to use this new sensitivity?

For detail information please look at screenshot...

"eDPI" is a useless concept, and has absolutely no value in games like PUBG. The reason is simple, PUBG (and many other games) do not have a 1:1 relation between sensitivity value and 360 distance. In other words doubling the DPI and halving the sensitivity does not equal the same 360 distance.

These games usually have zero as a valid sensitivity, so obviously doing DPI*sensitivity doesn't work.

So yes, it's safe to use this new sensitivity.

eDPI isn't a proper measurement of anything.

It only "works" in Source and some other engines where the sensitivity values is a straight turn-speed multipliers. Many games have logarithmic systems where they don'tt scale linearly.

eDPI also confuses DPI (a measurement of presicison) with sensitivity (a measurment of distance). If you had 1*40000 dpi that would be an eDPI of 40000, but 40000 * 1 DPi would be the same eDPI, but would obviously feel massively different.

Short version, is forget about eDPI.

thank you very much. i got the idea....
