When CCP released this build, there was a bug which made the KB/M control terrible. I believe they have been releasing small patches to fix it, but the total fix will probably be on the 14th.

With this game though the aiming and movement is just so twitchy I can't understand how people are aiming so well and especially how they always seem to be scoring head shots that take me down in half a second.
The TTK in this game is longer than most decent FPS games. The movement is also clunkier, and is also slow. Controls are not as responsive as they need to be. Part of this is the low FPS. I usually get between 15 to 20 FPS, and many other FPS games, especially on PC, hit 40 to 60.

This.

The information below is probably outdated on weapons, since all of them have changed, but you should be able to get the general idea of things, and pull out some useful information from them.
This thread may help you.
This thread is about mice. It may be useful too.
Unfortunately, the game is in flux right now, so you're not going to get a good feel for anything before CCP changes it. I suggest practicing for maybe an hour or two when you can, then go and play alts or something. PSN accounts are free, and each can have an alt who gets passive SP. They will let you test things out so you do not have to waste all of your main's SP.
When this build came out, CCP removed a number of items and gave the players the ISK value of them. Many of the high SP characters who could spec into proto got hundreds of millions of ISK, and a few were refunded over one billion ISK. The combination of SP available for proto gear and the ISK to support losing it over many games means that you probably cannot run the starter fits well anymore. Sadly, if you skill into anything, you will probably regret it on the 14th if CCP does not refund everyone's SP.
No one can give you a good answer or direct path about how to get better. Right now, the TAC AR is the only AR that CCP did not make unusable, so everyone is using it. It used to be unusable last build, but CCP tuned down the kick, as it was far too high. Someone at CCP decided to make the Caldari Logistics suit the best or second best suit in the game, and it is perfect if you would like to use a tac AR. If you have the SP to get proto cal logi and proto tac AR, you can have fun killing people for two days. CCP has a way of making weapons unusable if they think they are too good. They essentially remove them from the game, but you can still look at them or poke them on the market if you want to.
edit: strafe while you aim and shoot if you are not already. |
