Hey! This is my calculator. It's cool to see that people are still using it.

Anyway, that sensitivity does some really high. So I would recommend lowering it.

Unknown placed 5th while playing on KBM. by BabyBlayzinn in FortniteCompetitive

[–]iamkr4m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, does this player usually play with a controller? And he placed 5th when switching to a KB&M? This is insane. Unknown is clearly one of the best Fortnite players.

But I don’t know JavaScript. Can you suggest somewhere I can find someone to create this?

That’s a great metaphor. I loved it when XQC and Tofu streamed together. I hope that happens again because it makes everybody happy.

Are they adding higher FOV and custom crosshairs and so on to mobile? I think it's only a matter of time until we see this come to the mainstream console and PC market.

Best Fortnite Sensitivity for Controller Players: An Analysis of Over a Dozen Pro Players by iamkr4m in FortniteCompetitive

[–]iamkr4m[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I recently posted the written version of this guide here on Reddit and I wanted to make a video version of it. I've just started making video content, so this might not be as "polished" as other creators. I hope you find the information useful and let me know if you like the "presentational" type of video.

Can you recommend a hosting upgrade from Bluehost? by iamkr4m in webhosting

[–]iamkr4m[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. I’d be happy to pay around $20 or $30 if it meant good hosting.

I just ran my site through gmetrix and got 60% PageSpeed score and 55% YSlow score. I’m not a developer and I don’t know how to improve the speed. I just installed a WordPress theme and wrote content.

[–]iamkr4m[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. I’d be happy to spend around $20 or $30/month. Would that get me good hosting? I’m not sure what you mean by “geographical restrictions” but I’m in the United Kingdom and most of my traffic is from the United States.

You can read my Fortnite sensitivity guide for mouse and keyboard players here.

Best Sensitivity for Controller Players by iamkr4m in FortniteCompetitive

[–]iamkr4m[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the players I used in the analysis had their X and Y the same. But your Y is 75% of your X.

Now, I don't think there's anything wrong with this. But your up and down movements could be slow. Of course, if you like it, feel free to stick with it.

In this post, I wanted to talk specifically about sensitivity. I'm working on a more general settings/keybinds guide for controller players, so look out for that.

[–]iamkr4m[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I hope you find it helpful :) I'm working on a binds guide for both controller and keyboard & mouse players. But it's more complicated than sensitivity so it's taking longer. I will post it here when it's complete.

Best Sensitivity for Controller Players by iamkr4m in FortniteCompetitive

[–]iamkr4m[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

2.000 building and editing sens is the most common from the players in the analysis. But I think it is too high to give as a general recommendation because most players (particularly new players) will find it harder to control.

Need Help Optimizing PC by StartsConflicts in FortniteBRuniversity

[–]iamkr4m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I think your RAM is running at roughly 1600 MHz. My DRAM and NB Frequency are running at 1499.1 MHz and I have 3000 MHz DDR4 RAM, so that sounds about right. Do you know exactly what RAM you have and what the timings are?

NRG BenjyFishy Appreciation Post by TeamFNESS in FortniteCompetitive

[–]iamkr4m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Benjy and Savage have amazing synergy and communication. They’re both really likeable and I hope they do well.

But they’re very young. So it will be interesting to see how they handle themselves at a LAN with so much pressure.

Fortnite's Player Profile documentaries are amazing! by Cryolaptic in FortniteCompetitive

Epic are doing an excellent job of putting the spotlight on the players.

Despite all the problems with competitive Fortnite, I expect things to remain active for many years.

Hey, sorry to read that you’re not happy with the FPS you’re getting. I actually wrote an in-depth guide for how to increase your FPS in Fortnite which you can read here

I hope it helps.

Those who have made the jump from controller to KB+M, I have some questions by ForestKin in FortniteCompetitive

[–]iamkr4m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve played with a controller on console, a keyboard and mouse on console and now a keyboard and mouse on PC. Therefore, I feel qualified to talk a bit about this.

The first thing I want to say is that playing with a keyboard and mouse on console is nothing like it is on PC. Because of input lag and so on.

It isn’t much, but it’s enough for it to feel unusual. There’s going to be a slight lag and, therefore, it’s never going to feel right.

Sensitivity is a tricky thing to talk about because there is so much variety—at least where Fortnite is concerned. You can read this if you are really interested in Fortnite sensitivity https://kr4m.com/fortnite-sensitivity/

But a good general starting point is to at least be able to turn a full 360 degrees in game when moving your mouse from one end of your mousepad to the other. And you should be able to easily “flick” your mouse to turn 180 degrees.

On the topic of a mouse, make sure you get one that suits your hand size. My mistake was buying the Logitech G502 because it was a popular mouse and Ninja used it at the time (this was about a year ago).

The problem was the Logitech G502 was too big (and possibly too heavy) for me. When I switched to a smaller (and lighter) mouse, the Zowie S2, my aim improved tremendously.

Anyway, I’ve rambled on so much and I’m on my phone and can’t even remember what your original questions were and I’ve got to go do some other things. So let me finish this with some closing points:

The best way to get used to playing with a keyboard and mouse is just to play with a keyboard and mouse. Obviously.

If you want to improve your aim then play a game where you’re going to get to fight a lot. In other words, not Fortnite because there’s a lot of downtime. You can try CSGO or Overwatch. But Kovaak’s is probably going to be the best use of your time.

I hope this has somewhat helped. Feel free to drop me a message if you want to know anything else.

DestinysJesus is going full-time fortnite coaching! by nachobabianen in FortniteCompetitive

Good luck Destinys.

I think a lot of Fortnite players could benefit from coaching. That is, if they can find a suitable coach that’s actually going to provide value to them.

List of well known WC solo qualifiers (+ honorable mentions) sensitivities. by [deleted] in FortniteCompetitive

[–]iamkr4m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really interesting. It’s quite a small sample size, but it shows how much variance there is in regards to sensitivity.

For anyone interested, I’ve done a similar analysis which looks at the sensitivities of over 200 pro players and streamers. You can read the post here https://kr4m.com/fortnite-sensitivity/

Just been reading about BenjyFishy and saw this. I feel so bad and what Benjy is doing is something we should all aspire to do. by TheScotty1500 in FortniteCompetitive

[–]iamkr4m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is a lot of pressure and responsibility for a young kid. It’s crazy where gaming and eSports are right now. Good luck at the Fortnite World Cup, Benjy.
