I see many videos of PRO's players and I noticed a big difference, when pro land find always a good weapons ammo etc me land and not find gun for first 1 min or find p2020 and moza, pro's damage always is over 50 point for shots my are 7 or 13 or max 30, pro's shield are harder than normal players and another infinite number of differences even if the hits and damage areas are the same.After years of playing, a big doubt arises in my mind, whether they really have an advantage in advertising and encouraging people to play and not stop? even if the moderators and others of the blog continue to deny and say that it is only you who doesn't play well, after years I think I have acquired good aim and good game tactics but there is still nothing to be done about these details and differences between us "normal" and them..

@lnxtv You should watch Mandes stream. Guy misses & trolls a lot. Yet still sometimes makes amazing miracle plays. You can really see what real aim means since he is at the moment playing only snipers so flicking & point shooting is the key. With Mag guns its more about controlling the recoil & tracking. All of those equally important in terms of aiming. Even with his decade worth of fps aim training sometimes you miss. And when you are at that level of skill its not so much about hitting the target but more of hitting the best possible target/headshots = more dmg.Mande also quite often hosts customs with his viewers where you can actually try playing with him.Managed to get in to one of his customs and got insta oneclipped by Genburton + R99 🙂PS.On a personal note I feel you are at the same point as I was couple of seasons back.Accepted that certain things in Apex cant be avoided/fixed.Acknowledged that, I personally am the only person in charge of my gaming experience. Gaming shouldnt be miserable.So I took a whole season off and played aim trainers (& single player games) instead. Came back stronger (KD from 0.4 -> 0.8).The addiction to Apex also wore off during that time so I am now in much better control of my experience.Overall having much more fun playing Apex than I had prior to my one season timeout.

@lnxtv "some things can never be known...."great aim" 😉" If you believe what you are saying, then I've got a bridge in San Francisco I will sell you.

@lnxtv The pro's do not get any buffs, what you are saying implies that and your implication is just the spreading of false information. As far as the shots and damage go's, the big difference is they are pro's and you are not. You "may" have decent aim they do have great aim.

@Asmodeus566 some things can never be known...."great aim" 😉

Several things worth note going on here. First, when pros land and "always" find good weapons and loot, this is far from always. What they bother to post to YouTube is the one match in fifteen where they had a lucky landing and good loot led to early and flashy kills and lots of views. Obviously they're not going to post the other fourteen matches.

As for aim, that's a sticky wicket. First, yes, some people just have better aim than others. Also, some have better controllers than others. Some spend weeks and months dialing in the best settings in what is an outrageously over-complicated set up system. Some use modded controllers. Some use anti-recoil. Some use aimbots. And we haven't even got to motion mechanics. Or mnk vs. controller. Or other platform deltas.

I'm not trying to say that the game is ruled by cheaters, but I will say that when the skill curve is this steep that it becomes very hard to differentiate a good player from a cheater. And that, imo, does the game no great service unless you're a pro. Or a cheater. Or both.
