Master the fundamentals and advanced techniques to improve your gameplay
Aiming is the core skill in any FPS game. This comprehensive guide will help you develop precision, speed, and consistency in your aim through targeted practice and proper technique.
The foundation of good aim is proper crosshair placement. Always keep your crosshair at head level and pre-aim common angles where enemies might appear. This reduces the distance you need to move your mouse and improves reaction time.
Your mouse sensitivity is personal preference, but there are guidelines to find an optimal range. Most professional players use a relatively low sensitivity, allowing for more precise control. We recommend starting with an eDPI (effective DPI) between 800-1200 and adjusting based on comfort.
Consistency is key. It's better to practice for 20 minutes every day than 2 hours once a week. Create a sustainable routine that you can stick to.
Effective movement in FPS games is much more than basic directional control. Mastering advanced movement techniques gives you a significant advantage in combat situations by making you harder to hit while maintaining accuracy.
Understanding the relationship between movement and accuracy is crucial. Different weapons have different movement inaccuracy values. Practice shooting between movement steps to maximize both mobility and precision.
Use dynamic movement in firefights rather than standing still. A moving target is much harder to hit, especially at longer distances.
Map knowledge is one of the most underrated skills in FPS games. Understanding map layouts, callouts, timings, and common positions gives you a significant strategic advantage over players who lack this knowledge.
Communication is vital in team-based FPS games. Learn the standard callouts for each map to effectively communicate enemy positions to your teammates. We recommend learning 2-3 maps thoroughly before expanding your map pool.
Map control refers to the areas your team has influence over. Controlling key areas of the map provides information about enemy movements and limits their options. Learn which areas are most important to control on each map.
Each map has specific spots where utility (grenades, flashes, smokes) can be most effective. Learn basic utility lineups to take control of important areas or execute onto bombsites.
Study professional matches to learn advanced positions and strategies for each map. Pay attention to how pros utilize different areas of the map and try to incorporate these ideas into your gameplay.
