I don't bother the sensitivity I just go as is but as far as shooting tips @Zebruh said it best.

It actually takes awhile to get good as first person shooters practice makes perfect.

How do I get better at aiming? I think sensitivity is at 3.
I'm not sure what size TV you play on but I've noticed that my aim and precision is 5 times better when I play on an average size monitor than when I play on a big screen TV.

I'm not sure why exactly but that's the way it is for me. I recommend trying that if you can and see if there is any change.

go back to the basics, play some classic fps and get a feel for how to move and how strafing and aiming really works. Some people mix the movements of fps games, so the best thing advice i can give you is spend some time playing some og halo or even playing on classics on pc helps. Once you get that down you'll be able to work on your muscle memory and twitch

I'm so trash in fps game my aiming and coordination are:scusthov:

Awareness is kinda sad too but I've gotten better.


I need help with aiming :sadcam:

Playing destiny and even doe i.got too level 7 in about 2 hours it was all luck and riding my team mates for those last 2 levels :flabbynsick:
Even doe my teammates were levels higher my guns were trash so either way my kills weren't shyt.


I know everyone wants to seem like their great in every game but I'm trash when it comes to shooting mechanics.
I'm slow and trying aim at the head I end up shooting shoulders or chest :flabbynsick:

Any help coli breh's :ld:
Only 2 words.

Keep playing.

You're using skills and coordination talents that have been dormant inside of you since you were born for the first time.

Why do I suck so much? - thief :dwillhuh:


You've never used skill before (sad morpheus)

The best few pieces of advice I've ever got all had to do with treating it like actual war and not a game:

1. Slow the fukk down. You don't go running in the open or running around aimlessly in real life. Keep an eye on your map, your enemies and friends, and enter and exit rooms like a real soldier. Checking shyt out before you run in spraying

2. Reload whenever possible. You don't have half clips like real life. And in real firefights, you do the same even though you do. Nothing worse than spending half a clip and not killing the guy you shooting at, only cause you didn't reload when you had the chance

3. Never desert your team. Stick together. There is strength in numbers. It's easier for 3 people to kill 1. It's harder for 1 to kill 3.




4. Cause this is video game shyt. Always aim higher. Start shooting at the chest first cause it's the biggest target. Then nudge the controller up until you hitting with head shots.

In a way this could be real life too. It's called the triple tap. Two the chest, one to head to make sure

The Truth
I lower my sensitivity

Practice aiming for the neck/head/face

Get into the habit of jumping (Halo/Destiny) or moving (COD/BF) and shooting at the same time

Don't camp unless it's a good spot... But not for too long

Know the maps

Reload whenever possible

The aim will just take practice nothing can be said there. You'll need it though, Headshots are crucial.

  1. As far as your awareness learn those maps. You should know where people will be before you see them.
  2. Learn how your radar works. You should be quick glancing it at all times to find out if your opponent is running or closing in on you and how fast.
  3. Its OK to run away, just because someone shot at you doesn't mean you should return fire. Duck behind a corner and stay safe from grenades. Most of the time they will be so thirsty for the kill they will be willing to step on a grenade to get to you. Fight on your terms
  4. Do not reload after every kill unless you have to (or if its safe). You don't want to put one person down and get caught mid reload by the guy that was trailing him.
  5. Learn to throw your grenades. Get good at placing them right behind or infront of entrances. They will keep people off you when you're hurt and need to find cover.
  6. Each game has a different Melee distance, find out what it is and use it on people with poor aim close to mid-range

That's all I got

Also, play objective based modes. Having somewhere to defend/attack helps a lot.

Yall gave great advice :mjcry:

Just finished leveling up in destiny and I did three times as good as the day before.

I wasn't riding my teams coat tails as much I actually got in there and worked.


:whoa: not saying I'm good I just did better.

I even went in the crucible and had 2 kills :russ:

Its better than zero :ufdup:

I even captured 3 flags :obama:

Im.gonna keep practicing breh thanks a million for everyone's advice.

I also kept my sensitivity the same going down was way too slow and it was even harder to aim.


:salute: for all the help

Learn the map before playing against them coli nikkas if you ever wanna play battlefield, they ain't right cuhh

:mjcry:

Go for the heavy ammo drop and be prepared to run up on the enemy.
If you get the heavy ammo (assuming it's the rocket launcher) just shoot that bish the minute you run into an enemy because you can't keep it after death.
:wow:
