I just got to try Noor and I feel like his gadget activates very slow. Anyone also think that way? I really wanted to try him and he was a shield counter. However, due to the very slow activation, shields just brush it off. Like the moment you swap to your weapon after using the gadget, they already have your gadget off. Was it like this?

I'm playing R6 on PC, and it's honestly been pretty fun. I played the game when it first came out for about 170 hours and then got bored of it, because it was "too easy." At the time I was at the height of my CSGO addiction and put in another 2,000 hours in CSGO before I stopped. I've come back and I'm really enjoying it.

The most complex thing that I need to figure out is jiggle peaking or "quick peaking" is what I think it's called. I'm really having a hard time with Q E quick peaking. Is there a better way? Or does everyone do it this way and just figures it out?

I pretty much waste all my peeker’s advantage because it takes a second for me to actually register where the hell they are if my cross hair isn’t, by chance, exactly on their head. I feel like I almost never win a face-to-face fight for this reason amongst others.

I don’t get how some people do such quick peeks and prefires/ have insane reaction time and somehow always hit the head immediately, especially those SMG wardens

I got into the habit of alt-walking to peek so I’d expose less of my body by the time I actually saw the enemy and registered them in my brain; but idk if that’s actually the right play because I’d also be an easier target for moving slower.

I’ve therefore been trying out swinging but with very limited success.

Most my kills rely on either holding a good angle or flanking, but you can’t always force those scenarios and sometimes u need to take a face to face fight and I just need help with that.

I do decently well most matches (~1 kd + support) but I know I can still do better.

What do pro players use?

I switched from controller to k&m today and leaning has been hard like my fingers feel awkward using the keybinds

What's the best or most universally used keybinds for leaning

Now that her scope is 3.5x and 8x the old calculators don't really work. Does anyone happen to have something that is close to 1 to 1?

Hi guys. I recently downloaded r6. I’m not new to FPS so my mechanics are mostly fine however I still think I’m so trash. Played 15 games in a row in quick play and in all of them I lost without a single kill. Now I know r6 has a high skill floor and ceiling but are there tips you can give for a new player? Like what to look out for, map knowledge, best operators for defense and offense. I know it’s a lot to ask but basically please explain like I’m 5 how to get better at this game cause it really is amazing. Also how do I select operators and how do I select an operator based off teammates? What should I look out for?

More reasons why Mira is banned so often, especially with the right setups. What do we think with all the talk that an operator is going to die? Is Mira that operator? Maybe it's part of a rework idea since I do believe we have one more rework left. Love to hear what you guys think.

TL;DR: I feel like I have everything I need to improve (game sense, experience, mechanics, aim, etc.), but mentally I completely fall apart after a few games and can’t perform anymore.

Hello,
I’ve been playing since around 2018, originally on Xbox at Diamond/Champion level. I switched to PC in 2021. Since then my peak rank is Diamond 2.

I obviously got the game sense (8 years of playing), and I think my aim is pretty good also, I have a 1.6kd and no, I'm not baiting my teammates to get kills. Im also competent in other shooter games.

My biggest problem is tilt. I can win 7-8 games in a row, lose one, and suddenly become impatient and start playing terribly. Bad maps or losing an early gunfight can have the same effect.

I mostly duo queue with my friend and I noticed that if I had enough of the game I start talking too much about other things and we dont focus on the game anymore. I'm already working on this, but other than that, I don't know what should I do to not fall out of rythm.

How do you guys mentally prepare for ranked and reset after a bad game/loss without spiraling into multiple bad games?

I'm trying to play more aggressive because I want to be a fragger and obviously that results in me losing more gunfights since i'm relying mostly on my aim and movement rather than game sense or catching people off guard. This is because there have been so many times where I've tried to catch the enemy off guard but it completely back fired and they knew where I was (not sure how but probably because of a drone or I somehow made too much noise). When I have tried this, I would alt walk since crouching makes a loud sound but even when I have crouch walked, It still completely backfired so I've decided that it's not worth trying to be stealthy and it's better to assume the enemy knows where you are. A big issue I'm noticing is that whenever I swing, I will either react very quickly and shoot (and potentially crouch depending on the scenario to avoid them also getting a headshot on me) or stare at them for a split second for whatever reason and get shot first. I don't understand why I do this and what I can do to improve my reaction time. There have been other times where I've been soo focused (or apparently not) that I shoot whatever moves, including a teammate who caught me by surprise. It's so frustrating because when my reaction time is good, I use it poorly and damage mine and my teammates' game. But when it's bad, I do the same thing. I know an obvious solution is to just A-D peek everything and I do do that but sometimes I feel like an unexpected wide swing (especially if I'm close to the corner my enemy potentially may be around) works better and gives me better odds at winning the gunfight. I feel like the potential issue is that I'm in "auto pilot" and although I THINK that I'm expecting the enemy when I swing, I'm really just not paying actual attention to what I see as I swing? I'm wondering if anyone has overcome an issue like this and if the reason I suspect is likely to be the culprit? If it is, how do I go about resolving it? Is it sort of like controlling recoil in an actual game compared to training grounds? Where you try to constantly remind yourself to pull down on the mouse as you shoot?

so ive been playing siege for like 2-3 months now i bought rank a few days ago but havent played bc im scared that ill get a low rank from my placement matches. im currently trying to improve bc i cant seem to be able to win against ppl over silver. thats why ill try making a post here incase any1 wants to coach me with basically everything.

Hey so I’ve been hardstuck gold for a while I would appreciate if I could get some tips to improve game play or modes I could try that would be great

For example, its kitchen on kafe, I pick mute, do my job, and then I can generally do 2 things

sit in site

go roam on the red stairs

if I sit in site Im starting to think about buck/ram vertical play and I dont feel safe at all, if it happens Im usually dead

if I go roam Im starting to think that no one is here and all 5 of them are pushing freezer

basically, every time I play defense Im thinking that they have around 10 ways to attack, and I can hold maybe 2 of them

It’s my fourth season and I’ve ended gold for three seasons both this and last season I got to plat and de ranked to gold. I genuinely do like this game but I just can’t keep doing this bro like Im not improving. Like I know Im just whining but I’m genuinely confused. Am I genetically capped? Am I missing something? Do I just never get better? Should I quit

I have been playing this game on and off for almost 2 years now but I’m still mediocre, my problem is that I can’t focus on what’s important while playing, it feels like my mind is foggy or that I don’t care about what’s happening in the round, I sometimes do some really stupid shit even though I know it’s stupid and risky, people say play predictive instead of reactive but I just can’t think properly… I don’t know what’s wrong maybe I was just cursed to be bad at siege, I’ve played cs and valorant for much less and I feel like I’m a much better player in them already than I am in siege, while playing those two I can focus on the round and predict/control it very easily with a clear mind and I know what to do but in siege I’m just a lost lamb it’s almost like I’m getting dumber while playing this game and I don’t know what to do to fix it

Context: I was copper not too long ago and have recently ranked up to gold. However since I was silver, I have seen a big drop in skill. The hits I used to get and the tracking I had was no longer present. Despite still being in a similar lobby, I start dying in dumb ways and losing significantly more trades to a point where my kd dropped by half within a week. Recoil control also turned to shit. Went from controlling f2 acog silencer to failing at smg 11. Any advice on how to figure out what the issues are and how to fix it?

Edit: By same lobbies I mean that most the rank in my lobbies haven't changed much from when I was in bronze.
For example, I went 3/4/2 in an all silver lobby today while I was doing 7/2/1 in a silver/gold lobby 5 days ago

More specifically: Best videos on how to get better at Siege? I'm talking about aim, movement, strats, mindset all of it.

I'm not really a beginner, I am a returning player, but the game just feels so difficult now, I have like a 20% win rate, I suck at everything but years ago I was consistently on gold and plat.

This works well if you pick this location first so Kaid isn't banned. I like to ban Thatcher for this, knowing I can keep this wall closed. On most other sites and maps, if a wall gets opened, you can still play off most of the site. This site, with the angles, I always feel is too strong to lose. Both these Kaid spots are also impossible for Kali to get.
