It has been known that some players of Rainbow Six Siege are using a different multiplayer. According to the developer of the game, the default value for this MouseSensitivityMultiplierUnit is 0.02. The sentence means if your sensitivity is set to 50 the game will use 50*0.02, which equals to 1, to multiply your mouse position delta. If the value of the MouseSensitivityMultiplierUnit is changed to 0.01, then the precision of the sensitivity slider doubles, but the half sensitivity range that you have will be lost.

In fact, the smaller the mouse sensitivity multiplier number is, the more precise control you have over the real sensitivity of the game. For instance, 50 sensitivity with the default multiplier of 0.02 results in a real sensitivity of 1. As for 50 sensitivity with multiplier of 0.00223 results in a much lower real sensitivity of 0.1165. The 51 sensitivity results in an actual sensitivity of 1.02 with the default multiplier. As for 51 sensitivity at 0.00223, it results in 0.118.

According to prosettings.net, each step on the in-game slider represents a change of 0.02 in the real sensitivity. As for at 0.00223 every step represents a change of just 0.0015, which clearly makes it possible to control the sensitivity.

Basically, it can be concluded that setting the mouse sensitivity multiplier to a lower value means that the sensitivity range that you are able to choose from in the game turns out to be much lower. On the brighter side, it is much more precise. Actually, how much lower and how much more precise depends on the real value that you have selected. A lot of professional players are reported to have this set to the default value, so there is nothing to worry about this part, unless you cannot find the way to find the best sensitivity.

Talking about KiXSTAr, he was undoubtedly one of the players to look up to. Unfortunately, there was a bad news about him. According to his family, he left the world forever at the age of 24. The news about his passing was announced by his fellow commentator named Parker “Interro” Mackay on Twitter.
