Still not improving on console
I just do not understand. I think 1 year has passed since I made a similar thread, and yeah, I am still as bad as I was back then. Tried different things, different settings, different button layouts...

@Renegade_Prime86 Yep 100% experienced that myself. I knew my mindset was trash. I guess I was exhausted from trying everything. I do not know.
@hayhor right right, so... well, going in, I feel not that great. I think I am likely going to die at the first fight. Especially if my teammates decide to hot drop with 4 other squads in the same spot. Of course, things might turn out different. Coming out of it... well, I do not know. I just think about what I could have done differently, Or think about why my aim was bad, as usual.
@DarthValtrex ok so... I happened to record this clip. It is one of the extremely rare footage where I did not completely suck. Still, I am missing too many shots from the Wingman. I am reloading like mad because I want to avoid opening doors at the worst time possible. My thermite throws are trash. And of course my Pathfinder teammate jumped solo to who knows where, leaving me and Ash alone.
I agree with @Renegade_Prime86 but it's the looking down is not terribly bad.
What happened in that clip is all fairly standard Apex play IMO. It happens to me all the time and I have a KD that's more than double yours. You were landing a decent amount of Wingman shots, which is difficult to do. The wingman is a hard gun to use and landing consistent shots with it is very very very difficult. Even the pros miss a decent amount of shots.
The reloading frequently is something I do. There is nothing wrong with that, the only guns you need to be careful with reloading are the Spitfire, Havoc and Devo, simply because they have long reload times.
It took me a multiple seasons to get good at Apex and get my KD above 1. Lots of things can you push your KD up. Don't be scared to use your walls and abilities. I never saw you use your Walls in that fight and I think you could/should have. I have literally had them save me from death. Every death you can avoid is going to push your KD.
As for shooting down cryptos drone, it's difficult to do. It's a small target that moves fast.
@Renegade_Prime86 @hayhor @DarthValtrex regarding the aim, I was using ALC settings in that clip. And it is giving me a bit of a stick drift. That is why it hovers into the ground. I did not do that myself. I am still trying to figure out how to stop it.
- @AcidicSoda44031 Increase dead zone. I'm guessing the video settings have a low dead zone. If you have stick drift you have to increase it.
@AcidicSoda44031I apologise, I can give you some tips, but, with controller settings I have no clue, because I never used a controller in an FPS games
- @AcidicSoda44031 Just bump up your dead zone by 1 at a time until the drift goes away. Many people play with just a bit of stick drift in order to have that low dead zone, it's up to your preferences whether or not it's a problem. I had to have an 8% dead zone on my Scuf controller due to drift, on my current controller I can go to 2% with minimal drift but 3% feels better.
Yeah I had to set it to 10%. That and the response curve at 10. That is the only way I am going to not have stick drift, it seems.
Oh also I recorded this clip, and it shows exactly why I think I am just trash. I couldn't hit anything. Most of my fights go just like this and it's so dumb.
