Should I quit?

@prankstar2i wish it was in hindsight. ^^ But no.

It's just a specific case where i am trying to point out that OP might need to find a specific Legend that suits his playstyle and not stick to the typical Wraith/bangalore yolo soloplay.

We often go with Pathfinder, Gibraltar who both have huge hitboxes but still come out on top. Can't tell if you the enemy sucks or if we are good though. 🙂

Well yes, I understand that you need to play as the legend who pest suits your playstyle, like if you like rushing you play as wraith, if you like being a crazy person who wants to run around like sonic and pick up your teammates tags while getting shot at by 20 guys you play as Bangalore, if you want to be spider man you play as Pathfinder, and if you want to camp you play as Caustic.  I just didn't realize that if you like to be the guy who runs out into the open who I normally shoot at you should play as Gibraltar, that's actually a good idea.

You are probably a complete Bot right now, but you say it's "simply out of my skill level", which is wrong. Anything comes with practice and why other players potential (like pro players) are likely higher than yours or mine, you can still be decent at a game.

If you seriously want to improve, you have to take it serious. For example: I bought KovaaK's FPS Trainer on steam, I set all the settings to match apex and made almost science about finding a good sensitivity for me. I also tried getting as much FPS in apex as i can.

It's more efficient to train Aim in other games than apex, if that makes sense. ou are currently bad, which means you drop from ship, you loot soome time etc, just to meet the first enemy and die, which gives you "aim practice" of maybe 30 seconds.

Kovaaks is a great game to train aim and you should give it a try. Get a sensitivity between 800dpi/1.0in apex and 800dpi/2.5 in apex. You should not go above or below.

Consistent training is important to have success, every day like 30 minutes.

As you would go in the gym, starting slow, but accurate is important. Don't try to aim practice "fast" from the start. Focus on hitting objects rather than hitting them "above your skill level".

Over time when you get more compfortable, focus on getting faster. Speed is of course important. Focus on looting fast, focus on being aware of your surroundings, you should look around every couple of seconds. Focus on your movement, don't stand still etc.

These things later though, on your road you should watch some youtube videos to get some oter tips and also: compare yourself aainst pro gamers on twitch. Try to mimic what they do, their movement and their aim.

Use them as a reference.

Good luck.

I'll also try csgo than, along with tf2 and bf1 since I already bought them lol. I'll match all my sensitivity settings among them.

My mouse is the standard cyberpowerpc mouse, which is supposed to be a "gaming" mouse, it has adjustable weights and like ten buttons, yet the driver is microsoft regular. So it looks like I will need to buy a new mouse 

Like I mentioned earlier, my mouse pad is 27 cm so I should also upgrade that. I need a rigid mouse pad because my setup requires the mouse pad to extend beyond my desk.

I never heard of AimHero or Kovaak's Aim Trainer but it sounds like that was my solution all along. Lmao

QUESTION: Is there a better / easier way to match my sensitivity settings among separate games, other than aiming at a spot and spinning 360°? I'm going to have to set up these fps games all at once, and that method doesn't seem accurate, it's also a hassle to perform without messing it up several times.

I prefer to do it in a shooting range rather than following exact maths. First tweak it down to something that feels familiar. Then start shooting targets (the head if they have one) as fast as you can. Chances are you'll be making some micro-adjustments every time you snap between a target. You don't want this but it will help you figure out if you need to adjust slightly up or slightly down. You will see yourself over-aim or under-aim followed by a hesitant-looking correction at the end of every snap.

Rinse and repeat the process of aiming and incremental tweaking until those micro-adjustments are eradicated. Any other variables that you can keep consistent like your FoV will be a massive help.

Maths is only a part of it. The process I described is a good way to 'feel' how precisely other peoples maths will apply to your hardware and physicality.

Battle royale is not the best kind of game to practice FPS as a beginner, because actual gun fight time Vs looting and running can be sparse. My advice is buy Titanfall 2, it's currently very cheap, it has the same gun mechanics and when you die you instantly Respawn, there is no looting only constant gun fights, there are even enemy minions in the match that are easy to kill so you won't feel completely useless. If you can't afford it, or simply don't want to, you can play free to play FPS games like Team Fortress 2 to practice.

Now in terms of mouse sensitivity, what sensitivity are you running the game at? What DPI setting is your mouse at? Have you disabled mouse acceleration in Windows mouse settings? Are you wrist aiming or arm aiming?

When I first started playing Apex I was really really bad, hardly getting any kills, usually dying to the first player I ran into. After watching some YouTube videos I realised my DPI was too high. I was running at 1200 but every day would drop it by 200 DPI, I'm now currently at 400 DPI, I've had to buy a bigger mouse pad and I am now using my whole arm to move the mouse instead of just my wrist. It has taken a bit of getting used to but I am now finding it much easier to consistently hit targets now.

When your sensitivity/DPI are high you have much lower room for error.

Your mouse is your main issue. You need true 1 to 1 sensor with good ergonomics and a bigger mouse pad indefinitely. You will notice your aim will improve drastically once you get a mouse with a flawless sensor and raise your cm/360 aka lower sens trust me. I've been playing FPS on PC since Counter-Strike Beta 6 back when there was no Steam. Make sure the mouse you get is on this list https://on-winning.com/flawless-sensor-mouse-list-perfect/ I would recommend SteelSeries Rival 310 or Sensei 310 if you're a leftie, it's such a good mouse my aim improved immediately upon using it and practicing with Aim Hero (best $5 i've spent)

@MekaDeth555 if you read the posts made by me most of your questions have already been answered. My mouse dpi is not adjustable thus I need to buy a new mouse. Mouse acceleration is turned off. Naturally I wrist aim, however all my practice has been arm aiming as it seems to work better when snapping to targets. I'm able to do it without thinking about it now, I just gotta practice in actual game scenarios.
