Well they get the "advantage" because they changed it and have practiced using it, all you have to do is practice and you will get that said "advantage". I personally play on 8-10 depends wether sniping or not but i dont feel it gives me any GREAT advantage as such...give it a try, come back and let us know...

High sensitivity is a matter of preference. It can actually be a disadvantage if you are not used to it as well as it may be just as it says in itself ............. too sensitive for most users. There are in fact a lot of "harnened veterans" who refuse to use it. Would it be a good step to level out the playing field............. I personally nelieve so but imagine the uproar it would cause. Not only that but just how many "advantages" are there throughtout the game. For instance I personally snipe and ONLY snipe. That being said every person with an automatic weapon has a huge advantage over me. But Its just what I enjoy. For me, I enjoy the challenge and there is nothing like goin 30-0 K/d with a sniper against all using automatics. ANYONE can get those numbers (well at least a huge K/D ratio) with an automatic but only the few can achieve with a single shot bolt action rifle. Just poniting out an example. So Bluntly to answer your question. I would love to see it happen but then again, I'd love to see everyone have the same loadout. Then again, wheres the fun in that? LMAO

Yeah it all depends on your reaction time and what you're comfortable with.

I play on 5 sensitivity. I'm still able to tun on people at times because I'm used to that sensitivity.

I used to have my sensitivity on 4 on black ops but the sensitivity on MW3 seems a lot stiffer and i need to have it on 8 for it to feel roughly the same.

I used to play on 10 but after switching to 4 more scores went way higher.

Does anyone else think that the control sensitivity should be set to default on MP? I feel that anyone who uses theirs on 10 has an advantage because they have a huge turning advantage. What's your say on this matter?

It is just a matter of putting in the time to get used to that sensitivity to reap any advantage you can from the feature.  But since it is available to everyone, there is no reason to force a certain setting on the whole community.  I mean it would be like saying everyone should be forced to use the same gun, because another player can handle a particular gun better than another.

Theres a reason MLG players use 2-5

Anything higher is way too hard to be accurate with.

I play on 8 to 10, mainly 10. I don't know how anyone can play on default, I feel like im always stunned. I still die I don't feel that i have an advantage other than maybe one kill a game.

Yes they have an advantage in turning. This really only helps if your aggresive and need to turn and shoot somone you are close to . Ppl with the lower sensativity have an advantage at longer range shots. Its a wash IMO.

I played 8-9 on MW2 and BLOPS and did fine with it. Once I got to the point where I was comfortable with the maps/guns I'd post consistent upper-20s with some 30- and 40-kill domination rounds. Then last month I read on this forum how the hardcore gamers dial the sensitivity way down (1-4) and tried it at 4. At first it really did feel like I was constantly concussion grenaded. I'm a lot more comfortable with it now, though, and if I'm not on the **** end of the lag comp stick (which I feel like I have been for the majority of the past two weeks), I'll turn in 30-kills on an average domination round or high 20s with a decent KDR in TDM.

I've been using the Model lately, though, so the lower sensitivity really helps. I can't miss a shot or I'm toast (~70% accurate with the 1887 to boot.)

i play on 3 or 4 depending on sub or assult. if there was a setting where when your not ads you play on higher then when you ads it goes down to how it was on 3 i would play higher but it feels like when you play higher your flinch is out of control,

I think that the sensitivity is the best by 6-10 try

Below are scripts taken from 2 scenes in UNFORGIVEN (1992), a qulity film directed by and starring Clint Eastwood. I believe these are relevant to the stick sensitivity debate.

The script does enough to relay a part of my point.

Mid-film, Gene Hackman's LITTLE BILL talking with Saul Rubinek's BEAUCHAMP.

INT CELL

   (BEAUCHAMP is sitting at the table with a writing pad in front of him. LITTLE BILL is sprawled

out on a bench across from him while BOB lies in his cell on the bunk)

BEAUCHAMP

Actually, then, Mr. Corchran was faster on the draw

than The Duck--- than E--English Bob

LITTLE BILL

Faster? Faster was his mistake. If he hadn't been in such a

god damned hurry, he wouldn't have shot himself in the toe

with that first shot, he would have killed ol' Bob.

Look, son, being a good shot, being quick with a pistol,

that don't do no harm, but it don't mean much next to being

cool headed. A man who will keep his head and not get rattled

under fire, like as not, he'll kill you.

BEAUCHAMP

But if the other fella is quicker and fires first---

LITTLE BILL

then he'll be hurrying and he'll miss. Look here

(stands up and pulls his pistol)

That's about as fast as I can draw and aim and hit anything

more than ten feet away, unless it's a barn.

BEAUCHAMP

But if he doesn't miss?

LITTLE BILL

Then he'll kill you.

(laughs)

That's why there's so few dangerous men around like old Bob.

Like me. It ain't so easy to shoot a man anyhow, especially

if the son-of-a-***** is shooting back at you. I mean,

that'll just flat rattle some folks.

(both laugh)

Almost the final scene, Clint Eastwood's MUNNY and Saul Rubinek's BEAUCHAMP.

BEAUCHAMP

(picking up his bag and slinging it over his shoulder)

Who, uh... Who'd you kill first?

MUNNY

Huh?

BEAUCHAMP

When confronted by superior numbers an experienced gunfighter will always fire on

the best shot first.

MUNNY

Is that so.

BEAUCHAMP

Yeah, Little Bill told me that. You probably killed him first, didn't you?

MUNNY

I was lucky in the order, but I've always been lucky when it comes to killing folks.

I use default settings and find that there are several factors that happen before or during engagements that effect the outcome, I work on putting those to my favour and ultimately, survival.

I've been playing since CoD 4.. i personally prefer 2 or 3 sensitivity.. When you first use it, it'll be slow as hell but you get used to it.. I have more gun control when I'm using a lower sensitivity.. but thats just me..
