fov 90, sens, 6.2 maybe, ms comfort optical mouse, 17in CRT monitor, 85hz, play in 640 res.

I use a low fov because the game seems too fast sometimes as it is.  Why would I want it to seem faster?

I use the default...90 I believe it is.

Although when I have my laptop hooked up to my HDTV, I run a custom res and FOV about 105 think.

The thing is that mouse sensitivity in Quake 2 is affected by your Windows XP mouse sensitivity. So unless you indicate that too, your sensitivity doesn't really say anything.

I roll with defualt 90 fov on 1024x786x60HZ 17 inch CRT. R1Q2 and R1GL with 8x AA.

FOV - 115 - just recently changed up to this
Hand - center - no gun showing
CRT - 19" Viewsonic set at 800 x 600 so I can read messages
Mouse - currently MS generic optical (Razor out of stock)
Sensitivity - always changes with new mouse and OS settings
Vid Card - 64 Mb generic Ge-Force
FPS - 125 fps but has side effect of getting sticky to walls etc
Quake 2 - 3.20

i have to agree with what elysium is saying about fps.  Under his direction, i changed mine from 120 to 126 and stopped sticking to all the walls.  That is the closest i have gotten to aprq2 movement at 111, which ROCKED.

fov 110
sensitivity 17 on Logitech LX3 @ 1000 dpi on windows 2000 (i think my sensitivity is abnormally high, i have had lots of funny/weird comments from people spec'ing me)
800 x 600 on 17" kds crt so i can read the text
fps 126

my current config is at the bottom here:

125 FPS is visually much smoother than any other FPS setting but has a horrible side-effect of sticky movement. I get around this problem by using R1Q2's decoupled framerate feature (cl_async 1) and setting r_maxfps 125 / cl_maxfps 126.
If server admins would run with sv_strafejump_hack 1, sticky movement would be a thing of the past!

We seem to have sv_strafejump_hack set to "2".  Is that wrong?
