Formula
TF2 to CS2 formula
CS2 sens = TF2 sens × 1Team Fortress 2 turns 0.022° per mouse count at sensitivity 1; Counter-Strike 2 turns 0.022°. The ratio of the two, 0.022 ÷ 0.022, is the multiplier. It holds at any DPI as long as you use the same DPI in both games.

Converting from
Sensitivity in Team Fortress 2
Team Fortress 2 runs on the original Source engine with the classic 0.022° yaw shared by CS2 and Apex. Set m_rawinput 1 to bypass Windows pointer settings; fov_desired (up to 90) changes how fast things look on screen but not your 360° distance.
- Where to set it
- Options → Mouse → Mouse sensitivity, or
sensitivityin the console - Common range
- 1.5–3.5 at 800 DPI (15–35 cm/360°)
Converting to
Sensitivity in Counter-Strike 2
Also applies to CS:GO
Counter-Strike 2 keeps the classic Source yaw of 0.022° per count (the m_yaw value), which is why its numbers carry over to Apex and TF2 unchanged. Raw input is always on, the field of view is fixed, and scoped speed is set separately with zoom_sensitivity_ratio.
- Where to set it
- Settings → Keyboard / Mouse → Mouse Sensitivity, or
sensitivityin the console - Common range
- 0.8–1.5 at 800 DPI (35–65 cm/360°)
Ranges compared
Where TF2 players land in CS2
Competitive TF2 players mostly use 1.5–3.5 at 800 DPI, which converts to CS2 1.5–3.5. CS2 players typically sit at 0.8–1.5, so most TF2 players land on the fast side in CS2. Plenty keep it that way: your muscle memory matters more than matching everyone else.
FAQ
TF2 to CS2 sens questions
How do I convert TF2 sens to CS2?
You don’t need to: at the same DPI, Team Fortress 2 and Counter-Strike 2 use the same yaw (0.022° per count), so your TF2 sensitivity carries over unchanged. If you use a different DPI, enter both in the converter above.
What is TF2 2 in CS2?
TF2 2 at 800 DPI is CS2 2 at 800 DPI (exactly 2). Both need 26 cm of mouse movement for a full 360° turn.
Is TF2 sensitivity the same as CS2?
Yes. Both games turn 0.022° per mouse count at sensitivity 1, so the same number turns the same distance.
Where do I change sensitivity in Counter-Strike 2?
Settings → Keyboard / Mouse → Mouse Sensitivity, or sensitivity in the console.
Why does CS2 feel different at the converted sens?
The converted value matches your 360° distance exactly, but TF2 and CS2 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.
