I'm an Eve player and Dust is the first console multiplayer FPS I've ever played. I therefore suck, really, really badly.
I think I managed to get a kill once, and I've had a couple of assists, but I've died hundreds of times. I can empty entire magazines at someone then they'll casually turn round and kill me with one shot. I have virtually no clue what is going on around me. Whichever team I'm on always seems to lose, and I'm worried its my fault.
What are the most important things I need to be doing to improve my game to just "bad"?
Please include all the really obvious stuff, by the way, as it probably isn't obvious to me, and include hardware setup, pre-fight prep and combat stuff. Also, any attempt to rank the advice in terms of how much it will improve my game ("do this first") will be appreciated.
Or, if there is a page/post somewhere that has all this already, just link it and call me a moron. |

No offence taken.
In Eve I'm a bittervet; been there, done that. Class 6 wormholes became routine so back to flying around lowsec in a rifter for kicks.
If I need a planet taken then I'll have my Eve char drop a few hundred million / a few billion / whatever. I certainly won't try and do it single-handed in Dust with my pi**-poor skills.
If I need to kick back and have fun of an evening I'll die a lot in Dust and (maybe) learn a thing or two.

How?
Does voice comms work? I've had a headset plugged in all evening, and have been trying regular comms checks, but with no success. I've enabled voice and push-to-talk in the options (and yes, I *am* pushing the PTT button).

I had no idea you could press the zoom button and fire at the same time. No wonder I was missing a lot!
Obvious stuff is not obvious. |

When I don't follow orders it is invariably through incompetence rather than insubordination
