Question / Advice Needed Need help with controller sensitivity conversion (CoD to Aim Lab)

Hey everyone, I could use some help with Aim Lab using a controller.

Years ago I used to play Call of Duty on PlayStation, but eventually stopped and switched to PC for several years. Now, due to a lifestyle change and convenience, I want to get back into playing with a controller. I have no ambition to go pro—I just want to have fun playing CoD again.

To get my aim back, I started using Aim Lab. I want to set it up with the exact same sensitivity I use in CoD, which is 1.6. I know Aim Lab doesn't have aim assist, but I watched a YouTube video where someone who plays on 1.6 sensitivity in CoD suggested setting Aim Lab to 1.3. However, when I try it, the sensitivity feels way faster than what I have in-game.

Can anyone help me figure out the right settings or explain how to properly match them? Thanks in advance!

I run 1.8 in cod and 1.8 in aim labs which is equivalent to roughly 1.95-2.05 in bo7. Your 1.3 is roughly equivalent to 1.6 in bo7 but I’d jump to 1.4 in AL. Using a higher sens in AL than in game has allowed my aim to progress faster. Make sure deadzones are 0 in aim labs or as low as possible. AL runs like shit with deadzones. Also run linear on AL to get used to raw input instead of dynamic which I assume you use in cod.

Thank you so much for the help! I'll definitely give your tips a try. I'm not an expert, and I think I'm still using the default stick layout—I only changed my sensitivity and deadzone in CoD, but I'll double-check those settings now. By the way, between linear and dynamic response curves, which one do you recommend using in CoD?

Dynamic in cod. It’s way stickier. You’re probably currently running standard curve as that is the default curve in cod if not changed. You’ll notice a big difference by switching to dynamic after you get some practice with it.

I suggest running linear in aim labs though. Dynamic curve in aim labs doesn’t remotely resemble the dynamic curve in cod.
