The Science of Getting Gud (FPS Games)

My whole life, ive had terrible aim and stats when it came to fps, so i never ever played them. Now im trying to get into Apex because I think it'd be cool to be able to play a few rounds rather than the games i already play. It's SO discouraging trying to play but getting 1 assist and only dealing 350 damage while everyone else is at 1000+

Not to mention, being bombarded in chat and VC by strangers yelling at me that i suck. Like yeah i know I've only been playing for 2 days 😕

I just dont get why games like these and so fucking hard for me. I just wanna run a few rounds and not have zero kills and 9 deaths.....

Bruh 3000 in 9 months mean like over 11 hours of play every single day like whaaaatttt.

Thanks for the advice! About 50 hours into Hunt: Showdown here with zero progression to show for it.

if case anyone was wondering, you can never go too low on dpi, over time i went from 1800 to 300 and now using even 400 feels too fast.

I've been switching game genre's or well actually started from MMORPGs to other types to see if I can get the right "community" or even solo fun out of things as it's become stale and boring as of now and this will seemingly help immensely. Awesome delivery dude. Liked and subscribed.

the biggest problem is spending lots of time in the game. most of people started as beginner and lost many matches. no one enjoy losing many times, so they just gave up and change game

Amazing Video! I'm just wondering how you have that much time to practice tho haha

Wanna see you start a char in Scum

Let me tell you guys sum man, I played call of duty for the longest. When I started playing multiplayer I grinded that shit for years, day in and day out no cap. No every single day like yeah I had tons of girls, good friends, did some drugs, sports, just tried shit to keep my sanity in a positive tone. However, I learned that a sensitivity like around 6-7 out of 20, maybe even a 5 if My aim is off. You need to stay focused, move slow, never rush your fucking shot I can’t stand when my friends do that. And above all when you’re just running reps on games remember to work on shots, you need practice the difficult shots all the time, experiment the tactics that go into these shots, also watch creative videos and try to consciously remember what that person did(not no fortnite shit, like battlefield, cod, maybe siege, and stuff like apex) just comp work. I should get a video up of me just clapping dudes when I’m at my sisters place, her setup makes me completely unstoppable when I play stuff like halo or siege, ever since halo 2 I’ve always just grinded out the big competitive games. Go pro yall, this can be sum fun making money tingz no cap

bro... love vid!! helped me out idk but it did !

what tips would you give to a person who has to play on a 60hz monitor? do u think someone witha 60hz monitor has a chance to play at the top level with that disadvantage?

My Kd is 0.5 wish me luck

I've been playing FPS games since the original doom got released. I'm 37 years old and have always played and always sucked

spent to much time on aim lab.. got good aim but shitty game sense... that’s literally me.

Step 6.1: Make sure to be capable of recognizing they're your actual friends, not someone whom you keep around because you're feeling lonely otherwise.

Would be nice if I wasn't a slave and had time

Dude in literally just a dog when it comes to fps games.

I’ve realized my biggest issue is frame drops from my old gpu. But I won’t be able to fix that for years possible due to the inflated economy

I always was good at FPS in console almost to a point were games didn’t excite me... boy was i in for a treat when I got my pc couple days ago, never played keyboards and I’m suffering ;_ ;

I gotta say I disagree with some of the stuff. I believe that positioning and game sense is important but my philosophy is that you can have the best game sense but without aim, you won't is hitting any shots. Not to say that game sense is useless, it is extremely important i just believe aim to be a bit more important than it

What is the forst game you are playing around 1minute mark?

Wait so I know my Edpi so Basically I have been just changing my dpi but technically using the same thing I was told to try 1600 dpi so I did and adjusted my sens I used to use 1000 dpi for example on apex I used 1.2 sens with 1000 dpi should I put up my dpi thinking no more than 1600 dpi or should I use anything from 400-800 dpi? Also with my sens is that a low sens ? New to pc but I’m assuming it’s a low sens

DESTINY IS SO MUCH FUN

My reaction time is slow well under average it’s like my brain sees then double checks to make sure then reacts my aim isn’t the problem it’s shooting first

in my personal experience wireless mouse are better because the weight of the wire flying around can sometimes pull your aim off slightly getting rid of the wire really allows you to stop on a dime. in my experience.

You know, I've heard so many people say how you got to adjust your UPI or mouse speed should be minimum or some would suggest better gear or to be aware etc....but i find most of those tips to be just a very miniscule percentage of what it takes to be good at shooters. I use a 5 dollar keyboard, a 7 dollar mouse and my mousepad is an old history textbook from school. I'm too broke to afford anything better, lol. But i still kick ass when it comes to online shooters....I mostly like to play Arena shooters and those shooters demand alot from you in order to dominate the matches!! I got good at FPS shooters purely by practice.

Having one on one duels with the bots from UT 2004 (on godlike difficulty) was the way i went about it. There is nothing more tougher than the godlike bots from UT 2004, they move and play like real pro players and are very hard to kill. After 2 months of practice, clocking almost 3 hours daily, i started beating the bots on godlike, I was confident enough to face other players online. If you can master Arena shooters, then being fairly good at any other FPS game will come as second nature. Unreal Tournament is still active in its latest iteration if you want to test out your skills with other players or Quake Champions is also a good choice (more maps but longer waiting periods).

I play alot yet I'm still shit at fps games. At this point I think it's just talent and personality. I love fighting games because they alow me to be in your face and aggressive. Most fps games require camping patient shots and other shit like that which just aren't in my personality.

Thanks

Due to my serious problem with FPS games I usually end up just being some sort of medic so I can still help my team in some way, so most of the time I have been playing FPS games has been spent either waiting to respawn or healing people

I have over 3k deaths on TF2 and about 200 kills





I needed this

What's your sensitivity 800 dpi with 1.2?

this was a pretty usefull vid. thanks for telling about how to get gud.

a good chair

this makes no sense how does changing your in game sensitivity improve your game sense that's the most ridiculous thing I've heard in my life

bruh i play at 2500dpi but that is i only have like 20 cm of space

This was great. However, it should be titled for mouse and keyboard players only

ill give this a shot, thank you

I just did my first 10 streak ever in cod cause of this vid.Yes Im totaly new 3 days old player .... Im a burger, but finally I kill ppl.... lmao

Great advice and great video!
I appreciate the storyboard pacing and visuals to break monotony (though I did watch at 1.25x speed). Visual text when you add a point would be a nice bonus.

None of my friends are better than me...








Because I dont have any :)

I can't get better at any shooter. Just games that you can plan in like scarface, gta 5, Sims or any of those city building games I dominate. Shooters players are gifted their strengths I've never heard of anyone being trash and improving to competitive

my pc is so shit i cant record wich suks

Dude you are totally like me

I’m already pretty god tier but my girlfriend isn’t excellent video my friend

Can you help me get better bro? I’m a good cod player but something is missing and I really can’t figure out what it is. I’m currently a 1.42 kd but it has been rising .1 a day and judging by my games and history I’ll be more than likely topping out at around 2.5 2.6 but I want to make it to pro status

i will try his tips and report back see you in 9 months

12 hour's daily gaming for 9 month's! Shiiiit man i can't do that

Step 1: Be asian.
