2) When running around have your head on a swivel because everyone was comeing out of the wood work.:up:

If you are playing six hours a day against people who are better than you, then maybe you have reached the peak of your natural ability. You can learn maps, good dodging skills, and aiming but everyone has there limit of how good they can get.

Once you know the mechanics of the gameplay all that is left to improve is your physical dexterity and eye-hand coordination which has it limits just like real sports. If it didn't then everyone that trains hard could hit a 90 MPH fastball but that is not how it works. Accept it and move on.

Second that (y)

plus i find invasion is more about resource control that DM or one on ones, more enemys meeans more ammo useage, and more health loss, thus you learn fast

You don't need to play six hours a day

and playing gimic game types like invasion or IG won't help you much at all. It's just an excuse made by noobs who don't want to bite the bullet.

The only way you are going to get any better is to play people better then you, and think about how they beat you. You don't need to play allot, you just need to make the games you play count. Find a player you know will beat you, play him, ask how you lost. Then play other better players and keep doing so. Monitor your results against the same people. Also start playing PUG games.

You'll also find that if you are willing to listen, and don't get pissy about getting owned, that allot of people will be very willing give you some good advice in game and after it.
