keep playing. Search online for the game you want to get better at. alot of players make some tip sheets.Trying to get better at gaming...
Practice makes perfect, at ANY game. And of course you also have to read some strategy guides by lets say RTS games.
practice, tactics, knowing maps thoroughly, knowing character's and enemy's strength and weaknesses, knowing which weapons to use in different situations, working as a team. better equipments can make a difference (mouse, gaming keyboard (or at least reconfiguring controls to make it as comfortable for you as possible), headset for multiplayer, surround sound speakers (so by sound you can tell where enemies are)). but mostly practice. strafing + aiming (headshots) are key. always keep moving. knowing maps is key in multiplayer. in tf2, each character has strengths and weaknesses; know them well, and you'll go pretty far. for example, the spy - you can't just disguise yourself as anyone; there are only a select few characters that you can disguise as, unfortunately.
Make sure you have a decent mouse (if you want to shell out $30ish for a good gaming mouse, that's highly recommended), and make sure that you have a good frame rate while you're playing. Aside from the technical issues, it's all about practice... and playing against the best of the best really does help. I was pretty bad at MOH:AA until I started playing on sniper-only clan servers, but now I can whup noobs in any deathmatch.And does TF2 have objective/round based matches? Because while spectating in round based matches (when you die for the round), you can really learn a lot by watching other people play.
For FPS's... play them for stupid amounts of hours to get good, also get a good mouse and up the sensitivity on it.I played BF2 for 300+ hours and I got amazing at it, by the time you've played that much of a game though it becomes stupidly boring like I find BF2 now (Also the fact people don't play for fun now, just points).
memorize maps, and just keep at it. eventually you'll become pretty good.
The best way to improve is to just play, but some tips you may find helpful:
- Configure the controls - setup your keyboard and mouse to something that works for you. Default settings don't work for everyone.
- Learn the maps. Learn the camp spots, learn the ambush spots. The best way is to just play, butkeep a note of where you die and where your killer is. You should always be alert, but take extra caution if you find yourself in a killzone. You might even want to pre-empt by firing at the spot as you turn the corner, just in case there's someone there.
- Stay on the move. A moving target isa harder to hit target. Try and make use of lean and crouch too - a smaller target is a harder to hit target. But remember that you're also slower when crouching.
- Learn all the weapons. You may never know when you find yourself stuck with a particular weapon, a weapon you may not know how to effectively use.
- In the case of TF2, learn all the classes. Play them all - learn how they work. If you know what your enemy is going to do, and how and when, you can counter it. You can also cooperate with your teammates better by knowing how to work off the strengths of your allies.
- Make good use of spectator mode during downtime. Learning how other people play will help you get out of any ruts you might find yourself in.
I'm planning onmaking a website containing all these kinds of things. I play BF2 quite a lot and am fairly good now. My key to getting good is to know the maps and where other players most frequently go at a certain time of the game. Find a weapon you like to use and practice with that until you are unstoppable. Use a range of equipment for each situations, other players eventually click on to what things you use at each time. Find new places to hide/get your kills this loses the heat for so much time. Most importantly find a game and a map you like and just keep playing till your hearts content.
