You need a very high situational awareness, coupled with knowing when to hip fire or aim down the iron sights and releasing again to hipfire when he has lost most of his health, also need to know if you have time to take him out with bodyshots or if you need to headshot.
Swap targets if one is running away from you, to the one firing at you...chances are the guy running won't kill you.
You need to keep track of every red dot that you pick up, be it close or far away and remember it because something thats far away now, will be closeby in 10 seconds, take note and keep ready for it.
In a firefight against multiple opponents, use one of them as cover if it is possible, kill the weakest links first while staying in cover against the strongest guy.
Don't trust random team mates with your back, when you turn around, they are most likely dead.
Keep your back against a wall whenever possible and don't show your sides to people charging at you, strafing is easy but most people are bad at dodging bullets they cant see comming, so if you strafe, do it to the side where you can still see all the enemies.
Don't Panic and dont let them Hunt you, a good assault is the best defense, putting your back towards a squad never ends well.
Best scores so far are 51/0 on skirmish & 44/0 on ambush using my own advice solo without a team or support with a Type-II suit & Assault Rifle, no damage mods.

Quote:so i dunno, imo, the fluctuating, low frame that seems to effect mouse sensitivity and the poor hit detection makes it harder than it should be to kb/m well. Haven't seen any kb/m user say it 'felt good', is solid, or anything else positive other than 'it exists'.
Most of the time when you drag the mouse quickly the FPS drops sub 20 making it really hard to accurately AIM for the head, whereas movies ive seen from good controller user people, the controller moves as fast as the fastest run speed and since it isnt getting jerked around as with KB/M, they dont run into FPS issues.
I am used to a solid 60+ FPS, usually 100 capped and i feel handicapped playing at sub 30 FPS, especially when you experience input lag + low frame rate and you need to pull of a long distance AR shot, then i start missing or when there are multiple explosions going on and FPs drops, it seems hitboxes go out the window and no shot connects at point blank range.
Really odd how somehow none of your shots connect. |

Quote:A lot of the high scoring players are eve bittervets who are used to pc and kb/m. The kb/m allows for much higher and faster accuracy than the controller, though I haven't seen any really good kb/m players around (with the top end sticking to pc, where the top competition is).
The main problem on PC is that MOST good players are closet hackers, its easy to hack on a PC shooter if you pay for premium cheats. Sure there are some legit awsome people but on PC each game feels like playing against some guy in pro league in the Counter Strike era, while his friends barely keep up or drag him down.
Quote:I'm an average kb/m player and the last fps I played was counter-strike back in 2002. From day1 dust I felt I had a severe advantage because of the controller disparacy. Top end pad players are really good, but in general the public games just feel like you can dance around slow turning controllers, whereason a public cs game you generally could not allow the bads to try and shhot you.
A bad KB/M player or a bad Pad player is pretty much the same, they are going to die....allot in APB R you should go into a bronze district (bronze player = bad player), solo with no mods or anything that would give you an advantage, you can mop up an entire opposing team by just walking trough em if you got good skills you can go 30/0 against an entire team easy, solo.
Had one guy msg me once that i should get some backup as it was 6 vs 1, i told em it was ok...he rage quit midgame as i kept jump sniping em

Stick do Dust, i aint going back to PC either while i have a Nvidia 680 GTX in my system, having played against normal people i doubt i can go back and play against hackers & cheathers with Wallhacks & Aimbots, no spread, Pro settings (acts human but has superhuman aim once locked on) and so on.
And then there are the 5-8 PM's you get each day being called a hacker because normal people on PC cant distinguish between a skilled player and a hacker.
FPS games on PC are a sad bunch, wish it was still the good ol'CS era.
This got me allot of hatetells :p |

Quote:when people say "situational awareness" what they're really saying is they're "comfortable with the map"
Some people actually know how many red dots are around them, how far they are and how many meaty team members are there to cover your back and keep an eye on the minimap while aiming at people, while also juggling shields vs opponents you know are dangerous or not and not just knowing the map.
