Like I am going to buy a gaming mouse... Still using a 5 year old 5$ generic Logitech.
Some games require you to turn quicker than others, so I do adjust. But in practice, I like to find a base sensitivity that tends to work for most games. Otherwise you are having to re-learn subtle movements every time you change.

So you keep everything the same. But I find myself having huge trouble flying the Lerk. And a bit troubling fighting with the Skulk.
It depends how you play really. Used to play against some, if not the top UK CS clans quite some time ago. I know a lot of pro players who use those massive fabric mouse mats so they can use REALLY low sensitivities. This really helps at a mid/long range scenario with the wrist, as soon as you get into close range you can lift and use your arm to sweep the whole mat. In that way you get the benefit.
It depends what you like to do, but low sensitivity is (imo) the biggest bonus for accuracy. Your movements tends to be slow enough that they actually match player movement as well at mid/long range. When I was starting to play relatively seriously and attend multiplay lan events, that is what I used to do.
Personally I only play for fun now, so my settings are pretty much perfect for most of what I do, and a very low sensitivity is not at all realistic in NS2 unless you want to visit the doctor with RSI. There was a player in our clan who used to be in the top 3 Quake 3 players in the UK, and he also had a very low sensitivity. It was like watching someone attack their desk when he played.
I would highly advise getting a large gaming mouse mat (woven) if you don't have one already though. People forget that they are gaming and standard mouse mats just do not do the trick.
My gaming mouse mat is made of wood. It is huge.
