Hello, alot of people are " meh " at shooting these days.
No, I'm not encouraging death-match, I just want people who are bad at shooting to get a little better at that.
Tip 1: Don't rush if the situation doesn't require rushing.
For example, there's a GF with 3 Mangano members shooting 5 Tattagila's, there are no T1's on both sides, priority one is that if you're the 4th member who just came, you should park your vehicle is a horizontal way " --- " and shoot with a M4 at the Tattagila members, this provides extra fire-power and rapid fire for your allies and it's a definite win, using a deagle won't help much against 5 people.
And if Tattagila has a sniper, your first priority is to take him out, if he's down, of course it's a win because snipers are annoying especially in deagle fights as you're moving slow.
And if it's a 3vs3 fight and you're the 3rd member with 2 allies, you can choose what you want to use, if you're good at deagle fights, go and help them out, if you're not good at that, use a M4 or a AK (( M4 is better then AK because of the lower recoil. ))
Tip 2: Use any or every advantage you can.
The best example of this could be if 3 members of Tatta are in a straight line, you use your vehicle to RAM them once. This bugs their skin and gives a clear shot for your allies to kill them, they'll die or get deagle'd at-least two times. Because SAMP has horrible sync, this doesn't always work.
If you're a T1, use a sniper, don't go for ground fights, always have 3 personal mavericks for yourself and a faction maverick ready to go on your demand.
There's a 8vs8 fight, that's alot of people to kill, what you can do in this situation is to try to use a M4 from a roof to give rapid fire support or just go on the ground and deagle them from BEHIND. They are heavily focused on the front, get a friend or two to come and flank them from the behind, this way there is no chance to escape and they'll die.
Tip 3: Pre-planning.
If you know you're going to go engage in a gunfight, e.g a turf, plan what you're going to do, not just " Load patriots and find them. " for example if the takeover is for like 4 minutes, give yourself 30 seconds to make a plan, T0's and T1's kill any snipers they find and the rest of the members go on the ground and fight from there, if the opposing faction has barricaded themselves and you are desperate for this turf because it's important, request your T0 to sell you or him a RPG and CAREFULLY aim your shot and blow them, if there's a lack of materials, you can figure out what to do once you know where they are hiding, I'm just providing worst case scenarios.
Tip 4: Get a better ping and FPS. Also a crosshair.
What you wanna do is go here:
http://crosshairs.cali-kartell.de/
And select a medium-sized crosshair, whatever design you like, the default GTA SA crosshair is fucking huge, get a smaller one, by that I mean a medium-sized one.
Having a better PING and FPS gives you an upper hand as-well, you'll ask: " How? "
Having 100 FPS clearly means you're not lagging at all and people moving around you are some-what better synced.
Having 180 ping or below is great too, this means you're greatly synced to samp even though your opponent isn't, this results in you shooting the skin of the enemy and that shot is registered within 1 mili-second.
100 FPS and below 200 ping also means 0.0-0.1 Packetloss, believe me you need to keep your packetloss low, or people will fuck your /pm more then a porn star.
Tip 5: TRAIN.
60 percent of the people skip this, paintball is there for a reason, use it to train, use it to shoot people and learn any advantages you can.
Go to paintball, select the " First " loadout which is " Deagle, Mp5, M4 and Sniper. "
Of course if you're a T1/T0, you have to shoot people with alot of fucking sniper bullets, this improves your skill too.
If you're T2/T3 or just a civi,
Don't use a sawn-off just to improve your KD in paintball, use Deagles, Mp5's and M4's to improve, believe me you're not wasting your time, you're greatly improving your aim when you at-least " TRY " to shoot. Just ignore the assholes who say you're bad and insult you, what you can do is simply try to kill them and not use /pb to insult them as-well, you're at PB just to improve your skill, not fight some 12 y/o.
That's all the advice I'm providing for now, you can follow it or not. Good bye and Good luck.
