No. This type of confusion is exactly why I didn’t think the coefficient should even be exposed in the options menu.

I have attempted to clarify how this works in this other thread.

[Uniform Soldier Aiming …on or off?](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/uniform-soldier-aiming-on-or-off/102789)

However, it is a complex thing to understand and I get why there is confusion, so TL:DR.

1. The coefficient is **not** a setting that you should match for your aspect ratio. The OP misunderstood its usage.
2. USA does not affect vertical and horizontal sensitivities differently, regardless of the coefficient setting.
3. The best setting for the majority of people, even of 16:9 screens, is the default value with USA ON.
4. If you don’t fully understand why you \*should \*change the coefficient, then you \*shouldn’t \*change the coefficient.
