How do I get gud at competitive FPS, particularly pic related? Need a professional advice from a professional board.
Hey buddy I think you got the wrong board, /vr/ is 2 blocks down.
There isn't a single pro player around this board, only nostalgia shitters and manbaby who think they are so hardcoar because they play Quake 3 or some shitty dead clone like reflex or CPMA.
Kill yourselves.

Getting gud is called like that because that's just what it is. It's not some secret technique you can learn to easily become good at vidya.
You just have to do your best at push your reaction time and hand movement precision to the limits.
>>337458515
most people simply lack the needed reflexes and eye to mouse coordination to be really good at such games
but if you wanna try simply lower your mouse sensitivity as much as possible, get a mouse with a good sensor that doesn't have shit like acceleration, learn all maps and the weapon and powerup spawns and play it all day every day eventually you will get good or you will give up
At a certain age you just won't have the reflexes for it anymore. But basically learn the movement, learn the item positions and pay attention to what time they will respawn at
Practice, pracitice, and practice, constant playing is more important than how much hours you play on a single day.
Try playing with lowish sens. At first you may find it uncofortable but with the time you will develop better accuracy.
Try using the practice courses to learn how to strafe jump and rocket jump properly.
That's all i can think of.

That's like the opposite of what you should do. Most good quake players use mouse acceleration and have the sensitivity somewhat high.

>This board is for the discussion of classic, or "retro" games. Retro gaming means consoles, computer games, arcade games (including pinball) and any other forms of video games on platforms launched in 1999 and earlier. With the release of the 8th generation of consoles, the Sega Dreamcast will now be considered "retro", though the remainder of the sixth generation (Xbox, PS2, GameCube) will not.

You have been lied to, probably trolled, my friend.

Quake Live isn't retro, it was released on 2010.
>>337459669
Previous poster said q3, which launched in 99

>professional board
it was a joke at how /v/ is not professional. Do you fucking get it now you literal autist.
There is only one method of getting gud that works 100% of the time for everybody and that is spending autistic amounts of time playing and practicing against people better than you are.
>>337459772
I still don't get it, are you saying vr is professional
regards different guy
>>337459660
>>337459594
No, you guys don't know what you're talking about. Fatal1ty, k1llsen, and most tier 4 quake live players use acceleration. You can tell by just having the screen on them after you die. The sensitivity is mostly personal preference.
>>337459669
It's pretty much glorified Quake III with community-made maps canonized and some extra settings
>>337459772
this shit isn't a fucking joke you retard it's just your autism, kill yourself
>>337459332
If you're not practicing, you should be practicing.
>Quake Live
I bought that game months ago and I STILL can't get it to play. It always freezes right after the countdown on a match. EVERY TIME.
I've uninstalled, reinstalled, verified cache, everything.

high sensitivity, no acc for flick control you scrubs.
>>337458515
practice practice practice
play with better people. learn their tricks. try them out. build your repertoire.
learn the maps; pick up timings, escape routes, cut off points, short cuts, play them until you attain flow.
>>337458515
You probably already are among the top 20 in the world, considering this shit has been dead for over a decade now.

i bet you also play CSGO/COD

>Use speed and acrobatics to your advantage (I often bind mouse2 to jump)
>Memorize weapon and power-up pick-ups, and if you really want to get into it, time them
>Play around on the maps with normal / hard bots, find the chokepoints and the sweetspots
>You want to almost always be on the move
>Practice with weapon switching in different situations
>Shotgun is best weapon
>>337458515
Biggest thing is just putting in the time and effort into trying to improve. You'll plateau if you just hop into a few CA matches every night and mindlessly play, you need to deliberately practice (for example, if you want to improve your LG, you can go 1v1 LG fight someone), and put effort in when you do play. You should be watching your own demos, taking notes of mistakes you make, as well as watching good players demos. You should be focused on long term improvement rather than what's easier, or will result in quicker results, and be willing to experiment to try and improve things. Being aware and trying to think of ways to improve is important, as it's easy to get stuck in a plateau.

I remember Cooller telling another player that discontinuing use of acceleration would help with consistency, but yeah acceleration can definitely be used, and may be beneficial based on the circumstances, but you should have a reason for why you're using it. Definitely wouldn't have a player start of with it.
>>337461306
You should at least put some effort into your shitposts.
Depends on the game, but basically you learn everything there is to learn about the game then use it to abuse the shit out of it without being labeled as a cheater.
>>337460874
Your LG must be horrible.

Find a time machine, and go 20 years into the past. Then play the game for several hours a day, every day, until now.

Does your Quake Live even work single player?
I prefer to play with bots. And I couldn't do shit because the framerate lowers significantly and then just crashes. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
well you could stop masturbating and then tease yourself by watching porn but don't masturbate and then jump into a game when you are almost crazy from horniness and then imagine that the weapons you are using the cursor is your dick and that all the enemies are wet willing pussys
>>337464209
that actually makes sense to me
>>337464326
yhes i think it is called sublimination and was invented by sigmund freud
>>337464209
that might just be crazy enough to work
>>337464042
It works fine for me, but I didn't buy this piece of shit to play by myself.
Might as well have bought UT3
Does anyone in Perth/Australia want to duel?
I'm shite and haven't played in ages.
