Where do I change sensitivity in Team Fortress 2?
Options → Mouse → Mouse sensitivity, or sensitivity in the console.
Why does TF2 feel different at the converted sens?
The converted value matches your 360° distance exactly, but R6 Siege and TF2 use different fields of view and camera setups, so targets can appear to move at a different speed on screen. Make sure mouse acceleration is off in both games and in Windows, then give it a few sessions before tweaking.
