Causing too much noise when playing, waking entire household
Would silent keycaps help at all?

Is there a good, soft tracking material for the mouse that wont cause much noise when dragging or if im slamming the mouse against it?

A lesser problem is my plastic chair moving without wheels moving a lot, how can i lock it in place, perhaps weigh it down?

why are you slamming the mouse?

why is your keyboard so loud?

is your body weight not enough to keep the chair from moving?

is this bait?

Its an office keyboard, your guess is as good as mine.

Unsure about the slamming but now that you mention it it does hurt a lot to move the mouse in the air and perhaps its a reaction to that.

I weigh 44 kg so i would assume its not enough? Its basically a plastic "beach" chair.

Nope not bait although i worded it like that to perhaps gather more attention, my pfp makes it look quite suspicious i guess...

No need to move the mouse in the air

I have comparably high sens as well as very strong acceleration and 140 fov as theres no need for precision on this game but i still run out of desk eventually.

Perhaps its the pressure and having to drag the mouse wire making it uncomfortable, i ll see if tying the cord around something makes it better

Considering it not as a troll post...

Keyboard noise is more you with ogre inputs to it, be more gentle, hitting keys stronger will not make it perform better ingame.

Same for mouse, why are you lifting it then slamming? It only make things worst and harder for you ingame.

About chair, if you move that much to make the chair move while playing a fps game, it is either a faulty chair or you moving around yourself when you should just stand still and move only your arms or your hands (not even that tbh, left hand mostly not moving and right hand moving basically the wrist).

Good job sir, good job :crashthumbsup:

Come on, one cant have anime pfp without being considered a troll...

Keyboard wise its not something i can control due to the stress and weightlessness of it making it slid across the desk.

As for the mouse it appears to be a bad habit due to cord drag although im still wondering if i have to up sensitivity up or add even more acceleration.

As i said in an earlier post, its basically a beach chair quality wise but made of plastic, for the record its not anger or frustration that make me move but usually fear or dying to dumb stuff before a checkpoint. This doesnt happen with any other game, even multiplayer games

TL:DR
Change your mindset and dont care about making mistakes or being killed.

Long version:
Here:
its not anger or frustration that make me move but usually fear or dying to dumb stuff before a checkpoint
You answered it all . . . all the issues you mentioned (keybouard sound, mouse slamming and chair noises/movement are because you lose control fo yourself because of fear (of failure, stil fear as you described) . . .
What you need is a bit of this:

With a bit of this:

And a little bit of this :D:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4lz8MN6MQA

Even a happy bunny can enjoy it all and be even more happy :D
Enjoy it more, go wild, without fear and for the pleasure of the combat itself, live or die, become a super beast and rip and tear until it is done, as it should be as when in hell, fight like hell :broflex: (it is just a game and after all, you are meant to overpower the enemies and not the other way around, just use more and all your tools available and dont hesitate, hesitation is defeat)

Lots of puns used, I know, I know...

I don't that understand how this is related to doom eternal.

Ask the others in your household which sound is waking them up what they hear first. The keyboard clicking, the mouse slamming, or the chair moving. THen work to correct that first. I assume you are also using headphones, to keep the noise down even further. Speakers while other people are sleeping in the household seems pretty rude....

You have no need to slam the mouse down. Lift, reposition, place down gently. You dont need to lift any mouse more than a couple millimetres to stop it tracking, and move it back to the centre of the mousepad. And yes, a cloth mousepad should make absolutely minimal noise.
For the keyboard, mechanical keys can be noisy, clicky-clacky all the time. Not much you can do except get new keyboard switches, if the keyboard has replaceable ones, or just get a whole new keyboard.
And for the chair, get an area rug or carpet. Something soft, which increases friction, can greatly reduce the amount of movement in the chair, and will also muffle or dampen any noises that could be caused by hard plastic feet, or even casters, from rolling on a hard surface like tile or hardwood.

Yeah idk bro my roommates used to complain about my keyboard tapping too. I play osu, so its probably way louder than you.

I got them some earplugs though and they're good, maybe you can get the people in your house some cheap ones from walmart, they work well.

If you really care you could look into silent switches, like a Zilent or Cherry MX Silent Red. They can help, but I wouldnt count on it. And you would likely need to buy a whole new keyboard for it, since I assume you arent into keyboards like that.
