Im just wondering how to better my DMR. I have not played in some time so now my DMR is even more booty then before...... Its the most inconsistent thing on the planet. If I did not have good map movement and decision making I would prob be the worst player ever. If you have any suggestions let me know. Thanks

The more you play the better your DMR will get. You may want to play some octagon as well.

That the things..... I use to play a lot and there was a VERY small improvement. When i use to play on a team a while back my teammates were amazed i can even go positive the way i do with how bad my DMR is. I use to do octagon as well but the people i played with were not the best players in the world so maybe I need to play with some BEAST dmr kids?

I usually hang in a party but I might play with you, I have a pretty solid DMR and I started doing a crouch strafe 2 weeks ago so I tend to win DMR fights GT: Toomuchmooin

Also I have a pretty nice small map that's pretty good for practice, although it's more 2v2 oriented

I don't know if this will work for you but I heard if you spam four shots in the body and pace the last shot in the head its way faster than how most people pace all their shots. Maybe try a new strafe? This is from Ninja http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlnH3kSp1Wo

Practice, Practice Octagon, Practice.

There really isn't a certain thing you can do to make your DMR better besides practicing. Try out new strafes, pace different shots, but really just keep practicing.

My DMR is horrible too but when you play with a team of four and team shoot you will kind of not notice it and youll play better. 3 advice, play FFA, octagon, aaaannndd play with teammates. :D

I play good if im playing with a team of 4 but i always find myself losing 1v1 battles if i dont got the sniper.... I think its cuz my strafe looks like im in a dam wheel chair and dont go NE where............

You may want to play some octagon as well.

No No you don't Octagon helps you slightly, but having full games, 2v2's. and even 1v1s on actual maps are much much more helpful in the long run

Here's some odd advice; Go into DMR battles don't strafe just t-bag on every quarter note of a 4/4 time song, up on the first beat down on the next, just using music as an example, once you get comfortable with that start doing it while strafing and all the sudden you will have a solid crouch strafe if you learn to randomize your left/right pattern. Also I recommend having hold to crouch because it's way better for a crouch strafe. Another piece of advice if you don't do it yet would be to run away if you know you are getting outshot, it's better to stay alive and a teammate clean up than to die.

I'll find some good song examples in a sec.

Okay try this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tolm-07if3c&feature=relmfu
There is a pretty solid audible bass beat going on the whole time in a solid time signature, and The Tings are very solid gaming music in general.

Edit: This is kinda off topic but is there a thread for gaming music, my search bar isn't working

The spam 4 and pace the last one works. What I do usually is spam 4 shots and if all 4 of those hit then reset the bloom and get the easy last headshot. If not all 4 hit however, cause sometimes I miss a shot on the 4spam, I spam 4 shots again and 9/10 times will I get the kill with the second set of 4shots. Basically spam 4 reset 4 again. It works for me and im trying to get a new strafe/maybe adding crouches into it to overall get better in 1v1 fights.

LAN, you LAN enough you'll find that shot that fits your play style.

yea like everyone says practice practice practice. i think another way to help is to watch a lot of pro's streams and see what they do/like to do, and itll give you some things to try.

I've been practicing those tips Ninja gave, and so far it has helped!

practice and just play the game is really the best way. i know when i first had trouble with the DMR and spamming it, I used gandhi's tip which was pull your finger off the trigger each time to let the bloom fully reset after every shot. I started doing that and it atually helped me
