    How Marathon to Counter-Strike 2 sensitivity conversion works

    Marathon’s Look Sensitivity is about 6.67 times the CS2 number at equal DPI. Its recorded whole-number menu precision can matter more than extra calculator decimals. ADS Sensitivity Modifier is a separate control and is not included.

    At equal DPI, multiply your Marathon setting by 0.15. To reverse the conversion, divide by that factor. The number changes because the two games interpret sensitivity units differently; the distance travelled by your mouse is the quantity being matched.

    Target sens = source sens × 0.15 × source DPI ÷ target DPI

    For example, 10 in Marathon at 800 DPI becomes approximately 1.5 in Counter-Strike 2 at 800 DPI. Both describe 34.64 cm for one complete horizontal turn before rounding. Keep the unrounded value in the tool if you plan to swap directions again.

    The first two rows keep the source setup fixed and change only the target DPI. The third changes source sensitivity. This separates a hardware-DPI change from an in-game sensitivity change, which is useful when comparing two saved configurations.

    Settings to check in each game

    Marathon

    Settings > Keyboard / Mouse > Look Sensitivity

    Use Look Sensitivity, not ADS Sensitivity Modifier. The catalog records a 0.0033 scale and whole-number Look Sensitivity, based on the sources and date shown above. An exact output with several decimals is a mathematical target; the nearest menu number is what you can actually test.

    Counter-Strike 2

    Settings > Keyboard / Mouse > Mouse Sensitivity (or the console command: sensitivity <value>)

    Use the Mouse Sensitivity value or the sensitivity console command, with the standard horizontal scale. A custom m_yaw changes the relationship behind the table. The catalog retains the CS:GO scale, but a shared engine or similar menu name is not enough to assume that another game uses it: Deadlock is a notable counterexample.

    FOV and ADS: why these games can still feel different

    A full-turn match does not promise equal movement across the screen. A different field of view, aspect ratio or camera perspective can alter the apparent speed of a target. Compare the same physical mouse travel first, then decide whether a different visual feel needs a personal adjustment.

    Marathon and Counter-Strike 2 also keep some aiming controls separate from their base horizontal setting. This tool does not calculate a monitor-distance match, a scoped multiplier, controller aim or vertical sensitivity. Apply the result to the named setting, then evaluate those other controls independently.

    To verify the transfer, mark a starting point on the mousepad and move horizontally until the camera completes a turn. Repeat in both games with acceleration and game-specific modifiers accounted for. If space is limited, compare half-turns using half the reported cm/360 distance. Menu rounding can cause a small mismatch; a large mismatch calls for checking DPI, the input unit and game settings.

    Marathon to Counter-Strike 2 FAQ

    How do I convert Marathon sensitivity to Counter-Strike 2?

    At the same DPI, multiply your Marathon sensitivity by 0.15. For two different DPIs, also multiply by source DPI divided by target DPI. This matches horizontal hipfire turn distance under the stated game settings.

    What is 10 Marathon sensitivity in Counter-Strike 2?

    10 at 800 DPI converts to approximately 1.5 Counter-Strike 2 sensitivity at 800 DPI, for 34.64 cm/360 before menu rounding. These are worked examples, not professional-player recommendations.

    Does changing DPI change the result?

    Yes. Enter the original DPI and New DPI separately. For linear scales, doubling the target DPI halves the target sensitivity. For an offset or non-linear slider, use the calculated result instead of halving the menu number.

    Does this also convert FOV, ADS or scopes?

    No. The tool matches horizontal hipfire rotation, not screen-space movement or zoom. FOV can still change perceived speed even when turn distance is equal. Check each game’s notes before adjusting a scope or a character-specific control.
