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...

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.
@AcidicSoda44031If you need 10% that controller is busted. You could open it and clean the inners of the stick with 100% alcohol which should help some for a little while. I've done it plenty times, but I would just get a new one.
It seems like you struggle with tracking being / feeling slow in that clip and then over shooting when you try to adjust it? I know that feeling all too well.
Try this, it's all settings you'll ever need:
Deadzone - 0 ideally, mine is at 3.
Outer threshold - 2%
Response curve - 6
Yaw - 470
Pitch - 240-250
Ads yaw - 130
Ads pitch -95
ALL the rest set to 0.
I hate the stick length on PS controllers so I play with extenders which gives you a bit more movement control in between. The rest is just practice but these settings after a long search at last made the gunplay feel good. Use it, don't use it, up to you.edit forgot 110 fov - the most important piece to make this work.
