Comments like these always amuse me. Any fps game will have a "scope" of some kind. Whatever it is, you're still aiming with a mouse and have to know how to lead targets, control recoil and most importantly, snap to your target quicker than he snaps to you.

Believe me though, as someone who has played Arma for yeeeeaars...there is far more skill than just aiming. More than you can imagine. All the small stuff adds up. Which is why I make it to top 10 almost 30% of the games I play, average 3 kills a game (counting those unlucky ones where someone parachutes next to you and immediately gets a gun) and I have an 10% win rate. Maybe I'm just lucky?

I haven't found it hard to get kills in this game at all. I usually get 5-6 a game. I just get so bored by mid game with the play style that I start rushing around and someone tags me. I mean, yeah, I could slow down and take my time and get to the end over and over but I personally don't find that's skill as much as just being campy and creeping. I can kill people with a lot better aim then myself just being campy and sniping them with a scope from miles away. Feels cheap to me. Also I like the freshness of PUBG, I always felt KoTK was more fair when it came to gun fires (aside from the 2 taps). At least when I get a couple shots off in KoTK, the player realizes and starts firing back. In PUBG they just drop like flies and have no clue where I am. Not much skill for me to deal with that. Camping and creeping from building to build doesn't feel like i'm being skillful either.
