Changing settings.

Hello! For a while now, I have had an issue with changing my settings. In tf2, I find myself changing my crosshair all the time and in csgo I cannot keep a consistent resolution. I am the type of player who is constantly striving to get better, so I feel the need to try and find the best settings for me, but I feel like when I play better with one setting it's just because I'm feeling good that day. I have no way to tell if it's the settings or some external factor.

I do this, not because I am playing poorly, I am just indecisive of what works best for me. My thought process; Oh, I wonder if I try this crosshair, will I play better? hmm, what about this crosshair?

I don't really change anything else besides this

It's a never ending loop that I would like to get out of. If anyone else has this problem or has a solution please tell me.

and please don't say to just not change it, that's like telling a drug addict to stop doing drugs.

Yeah I can't think of anything else to say besides find settings you're the most comfortable with and stick with them. Show some discipline and self-control.

keep your settings for a week instead of a day just to make sure it isnt just your inconsistency that is the issue

maybe if you have a 'custom' folder shortcut, install a HUD crosshair and remove the 'custom' folder shortcut to make changing them a task and not so accesible so you will need to go through the work of going through files.

That's a good idea. I use a crosshair switcher, so I can just remove the shortcut on my desktop. I will try this.

This is the third "I keep changing my tf2 sens/hud/settings" thread in like two weeks.
Seriously? Video game settings do not fuck with any of your biochemistry. Just stop changing them.
This is not like drugs whatsoever. This is nothing but a ridiculous lack of willpower also known as giving a fuck.

You shouldn't have to ask people on a video game forum how to apply your free will.

I just have an issue with constantly wanting the best, so I constantly change my settings in order to achieve the best performance I can get. I enjoy trying to find the best for me, which is why it's addicting. I'm super indecisive, and have trouble deciding if I want this or that, so I constantly change. That's all I was wanting, but apparently I suffer from a mental disorder and will not be able to.

So far removing the shortcut has worked pretty well.

You stated in the original post that you want to stop changing your settings. So how about you stop changing your settings. If you want "the best for you", stop changing your settings.

Stop changing your settings.
